Bewilderment after Trump's 'out of touch' interview with Trey Gowdy: 'Pathetic stuff'

President Donald Trump's strange interview with Fox News host Trey Gowdy on Sunday night bewildered the president's critics. Trump appeared on "Sunday Night in America" with Gowdy, where the two men discussed topics ranging from Trump's dream golf foursome to his management of the economy and foreign affairs. During the interview, critics noted that Trump was spouting statements so strange that they wondered what was really going through the president's mind as he spoke. "Trey Gowdy is working hard to do the most pathetic interview of Trump of all time," Aaron Rupar, an independent journalist, posted on X. "It's a stiff competition, but man, this is some pathetic stuff."In one segment, Trump claimed that Canada "thinks" it is a state even though Trump has repeatedly claimed he wanted to make Canada a state. "We are actually quite sure we are not a state," Scott Barber, a Canadian author, posted on X. "Deranged," the political commentary account "Spiro's Ghost" posted on X. Trump also repeated his plea to voters to pretend he is on the midterm ballots to increase voter turnout. Polls have shown that Republicans often perform well when Trump is on a ballot, but recent polling suggests the 2026 midterms may be different. Trump's plea struck a nerve with comedian Stacy Cay. "Pretend gas prices aren’t high. Pretend inflation isn’t getting worse," Cay posted on X. "Pretend we’re not at war with Iran. Pretend I won the 2020 election. Pretend I wasn’t Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend. Pretend my main donor didn’t do a Seig Heil at my inauguration."Trump also claimed to have "largely taken care of inflation" during the interview, a claim that some found truly difficult to comprehend. "So out of touch," Robert Wolf, a board member of the Obama Foundation, posted on X. "Gas prices are still high. Grocery prices are up big, such as beef, coffee, chocolate. Commodity prices are up, like wheat [and] corn. Fertilizer and diesel prices are up, hammering farmers." Trey Gowdy is working hard to do the most pathetic interview of Trump of all time. It's a stiff competition, but man, this is some pathetic stuff. pic.twitter.com/Z7tUnmLcBw— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) August 31, 2026
