In this fiery Watchdog on Wall Street episode, Chris compares Donald Trump’s current political state to the infamous “blue screen of death” — the moment everything crashes and you’re forced to reboot. Once-loyal supporters and conservative influencers are now openly questioning Trump’s leadership, his endless media appearances, and a team that seems more focused on flattery than fixing problems. From collapsing economic messaging to frustrated young voters, this is a blunt call for honesty, accountability, and a total system restart before it’s too late for the MAGA movement — or the country.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Trump's blue screen of death. Now, anybody who had a
Windows computer and the oh back in the day has
experienced the blue screen of death. Yes, eventually I got
tired of it and I moved on to Apple things. Anyway,
we're at that point in time with Donald Trump and

(00:37):
this administration where we've hit the blue screen of death.
Everything gets lost on the computer, everything that you were
working on. It's a frustrating point to get in. The
only way to get around the blue screen of death
is you just got to shut the thing off and restart.
And that, my friends, is where we're at at this

(00:57):
point in time. I take no place pleasure whatsoever reading
the Riot Act to somebody that I voted for. Quite frankly,
I didn't vote for this. I didn't. More and more
of the Trump sick of fans, the ones that you know,

(01:18):
throughout this entire administration and process said he could do
no wrong, ones that have repeatedly made appearances on Fox
News Reliable, Reliable, cont making excuses for the president. They're
running now, they're running Yesterday. Yesterday, Donald Trump appeared did

(01:43):
an interview with Laura Ingram. Laura Ingram actually pushed back
up shot, Okay, I'm gonna give credit with credits to
because I'm often critical hurt too, actually pushed back on
some of the things that Trump said in that interview,
and he performed horribly, horribly. I don't know why he

(02:08):
feels the need that he has to be in front
of a damn camera doing an interview every five minutes.
Quite frankly, I don't know how he finds the time
to do anything with the amount of bloody interviews that
he does. Oh most accessible present. Listen, man, you know,
man's got to know his limitations, and you know spring
Chicken my friend. And he looks confused. He doesn't have

(02:33):
answers to certain questions, and when he doesn't have answers
to certain questions, he gets visibly frustrated and spews out
complete and other nonsense. I don't know who's handling him
to Susie Wiles character, but the Blue Screen to Death
involves I'm talking mass firings, mass fire rings. Many people

(03:02):
need to go many people need just they have to
go away. At this point in time, I'm going to
couple major supporters influencers online some of the things that
they're saying, you know, talking about how you know positive,

(03:23):
how well everything went election night, and the energy was unmistakable,
and the dream soured almost out of nowhere. The administration
pivoted from policies aimed at generational prosperity to those associated
with perpetual poverty. Again, these are things that I have
been talking about for some time here on the program,

(03:47):
and I get really, really nasty uh messages from people
out there. Again, I'm one of the biggest Trump supporters
on the plane, and I say this at a genuine concern.
This is a recipe for defeat, not only in the midterms,
but for twenty twenty eight onward as well. I don't

(04:09):
want to be a pannikin, but I also want to
piss away the last chance we have to turn this
country around. The president desperately needs people to be honest
with him about the situation on the ground, and something
that I have been repeating for some time, his victory
last November feels like a thousand years ago, and the

(04:30):
statements coming from his staff are unrecognizable from the usual
DC clap trap. They supposedly ran against millennials and gen
zers are hurting, and together they represent the largest voting
block in this country. They will remain so for years
to come. They are better ways to make life affordable,
and young people want and deserve an economy that allows

(04:52):
him to flourish. Once they acquire a taste for the
free crap, there will be no going back. The American
dream will be officially dead, and millions of voters will
forever associate MAGA with its decline. He's not wrong. This
is another one here, Sean Davis. Sean Davis from The Federalist,

(05:17):
a staunch supporter mouthpiece for Donald Trump, cues the weak
and rudderless president of focusing too much on foreign policy
instead of the domestic economic issues that affect tens of
millions of Americans. I don't know who's advising Congression Republicans

(05:39):
on strategy right now, but whoever it is has an
IQ barely approaching room temperature. Republicans right now have no accomplishments,
no plans, and no vision. Why on earth would anyone
be excited to go vote for them twelve months from now.
Trump needs a ditch to foreign policy crap and focus
all his attention on the domestic economy, which is not
working for the majority of people. Right now. He looks

(06:02):
weak in rudderless, be mad all you want, but it's
the truth again. He's easy wrong on that at all.
Young Americans struggling to find work, straddled with that, where
is their path to the American dream right now? Who's
giving them a vision of future worth fighting for? You

(06:24):
cannot have a viable country or future when half your
country and all its young people are locked out of
the economy and locked out of ever owning a home
or much of anything beyond next month's streaming subscription. Does
anyone in Washington care about this? Anyone at all? Republicans
had better wake up because right now their nightmares only
beginning if they don't start making massive changes again. People

(06:49):
were calling ah scorch earth attack, and he got upset
at that, and he says, it's not a condemnation, it's
a call for course correction. Yeah, blue screen of death.
It's time to shut the computer off, turn it back on,
get rid of all of these advisors that you have.

(07:11):
They don't know what they're doing. They don't know what
they're doing, and it's maybe it's part of his problem
as well, as he needs people to kiss his ass
all the time rather than be honest with them. We're
gonna go over today. I'm gonna do a series of
podcasts on various different topics that we're addressed in the interview,

(07:35):
Issues that we have with this country at this point
in time, and solutions. Novel concept. We offer solutions here
on the program, things that actually would work. Hopefully again,
I'm hoping. I'm hoping. I'm not you know, I'm not

(07:55):
exactly very confident right now by the stretch of the imagination.
But I'm hoping that this man will wake up at
some point in time. Watch Dog on Wall Street dot
