The plan was blocked on Friday and was not supported by many in his own party, who urged him to drop it.<\/p>\n<p>Andersen notes that the fund represents a significant failure for the entertainment-oriented president, but argues that what may be more damaging to his reputation is his difficulty even with \u201cinconsequential stuff,\u201d such as the Great American State Fair, a festival scheduled to run on the National Mall between June 25 and July 10, which has been thrown into doubt after the president suggested replacing it with a MAGA rally.<\/p>\n<p>After the majority of artists dropped out of the concert, even conservative commentator Megyn Kelly admitted the shrinking lineup was a \u201cdisaster.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>As a solution, on Saturday, the president took to Truth Social to \u201corder\u201d that he be the main act at his Freedom 250 celebration. In a post written in the third person, he described himself as \u201cthe man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, it appears that some MAGA insiders still have no idea what is happening, as Interior Secretary Doug Burgum admitted on <i>State of the Union<\/i> on Sunday that he does not know whether the concert will be canceled and replaced by a rally headlined by the president.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=421\">Bill Gates Humiliated as His Cringe PR Tactics Exposed<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt feeds the correct view that I think is spreading among more and more and more people that, wow, he\u2019s kind of incompetent, isn\u2019t he?\u201d Anderesen said. <\/p>\n<p>Polls have shown Trump losing support largely over the economy, made worse by the war with Iran, which appears not to be coming to a close despite the president\u2019s repeated promises. A May Politico survey found that 53 percent of Americans say the cost of living is the worst they can remember, up from 46 percent recorded in November.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that\u2019s what makes people anxious,\u201d Coles told Andersen, mentioning rising prices, to which Andersen replied: \u201cCorrect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBread and circuses,\u201d the author told Coles, explaining that leaders have been putting on a \u201ccircus\u201d long before Trump came into power, but that this is only \u201cfine if you\u2019ve got the bread.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust the circus alone, and giant ballrooms for rich people, and giant tax benefits for rich people, and giant crypto scams for rich people. While I can\u2019t afford meat at the grocery store, that doesn\u2019t go down so well,\u201d Andersen added.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Beast has reached out to the White House for comment. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p><i><b>New episodes of The Daily Beast Podcast are released every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday on <\/b><\/i><i><b>YouTube<\/b><\/i><i><b>, and on <\/b><\/i><i><b>other podcast platforms<\/b><\/i><i><b> the next morning.
