Ten-year-old nabisco offTM:

Here's something funny: when I was ten years old I had a vague admiration for Donald Trump and Lee Iacocca (both very feted at the time) and a downright intense love of Alex P. Keaton from Family Ties, who I didn't understand to be something of a joke. As such, despite having really liked Mondale -- having a woman as a running mate impressed me, probably because of the mother/father dynamic of it -- I was convinced that I wanted to be a Republican and a businessman or lawyer of some sort. In fact, I started a "company" with my friends Brian and Jeff -- we made board games, and hired Tony, the best breakdancer I have ever known, to do the art -- and I was constantly attempting to read the law and economics books in my father's library. Everyone seemed to think this was "cute," though I sort of wish someone had just explained politics to me. In either case, I got over it quickly and went back to wanting to be a writer.

i suppose 'classic' in that he's all a lot of people can think about or talk about and his brain dmamage is so powerful it's infected the world

p bad president and person tho

takes balls to rock that combover day in and out

I can see the blood from the man-flesh on his teeth!

What you lookin' at?
You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be?
You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say,
"That's the bad guy.
" So... what that make you? Good? You're not good.
You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
So say good night to the bad guy!
Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you.
Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way!

You certainly don't, pal, 'cause the good news is - you're fired. The bad news is - you've got, all of you've got just one week to regain your jobs starting with tonight. Starting with tonight's sit. Oh? Have I got your attention now? Good. 'Cause we're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anyone wanna see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired. Get the picture? You laughing now? You got leads. Mitch and Murray paid good money, get their names to sell them; you can't close the leads you're given, you can't close shit. You ARE shit! Hit the bricks, pal, and beat it 'cause you are going OUT!

Search: "move on her like a bitch"

Destroy: everything else

"Trump never said he had tapes, he just inferred that he did. And it is not intimidating a witness since Comey is telling the truth and knew that any tapes would prove his version of events."

everyone is classic but not everyone should be president

President Don once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a savior machine

Trump lingered last in line for brains
And the one he got was sorta rotten and insane
Small hands (so sad!), a rust-hued clown
Is Trump fast asleep or rockin' out with Three Doors Down?

Murricuns electing Donald Trump: Classic or dud?

haven't thought about this guy for a while. i think he was popular in the 80s?

Overrated

I think he'd make really great hog slurry. You can really tell a lot about a man by the way his pureed corpus fills a trough.

red means 'run, son. numbers add up to nothin'

shelter me from the putin and the banker
i bankrupted casinos. who the fuck does that?

wasting his finite reserves of energy there

Cronenbergian

Like a hastily-assembled meat collage.

hard to tell who is more obsessed with him the right or the left.

also the media love/hate thing is so cute. get a room you two.

“I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.”

He is only as wicked and hellspawned as the hatred and resentment simmering in the heartland of the most violent nation ever

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

you suggest Panama?

the 1997 NYer profile of Trump is start-to-finish amazing but if I had to pick a favorite part it's this https://t.co/reqFZ79eZd pic.twitter.com/Qnwnuiyxqh

libs/"centrists" for sure

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

*not adjusted for population inflation

indicative of a deep flaw in our universe

truly he is king of the narcissist personality disorder sufferers

i think jesus still beats him out unless we're only counting contemporaneous fame

Michael Jackson sold a hundred million records

contemporaneous fame. MJ is up there but there are twice as many people on Earth now than there were in 1984.

Donlad Turmp sold a hundred million and one. Sad!

Part of my problem is that I have to do a lot of things myself. It takes so much time. Julio Iglesias is coming to Mar-a-Lago, but I have to call Julio, I have to have lunch with Julio. I have Pavarotti coming. Pavarotti doesn’t perform for anybody. He’s the highest-paid performer in the world. A million dollars a performance. The hardest guy to get. If I call him, he’ll do it—for a huge amount less. Why? Because they like me, they respect me, I don’t know.

I think you might need to look into a thing called history if you think this is the most violent nation ever.

idk Native American genocide plus slavery plus nuclear bomb-dropping... surely we're in the running

probably a million people killed by u.s. in vietnam/laos/cambodia. nobody will ever know how many. not pol pot numbers, but still...

mao would be the world champ though.

it's sobering to realize that Trump is probably the most famous person in human history now

this is a ridiculous statement

Man, if only Trump would tweet that he's bigger than Jesus...

well he's certainly fatter

stahp posting this I cant handle it

This is Johnny McEntee, senior advisor to Project 2025 & Trump’s Director of the Office of Personnel Management.

McEntee would be the most central person to implement Schedule F & hire Trump loyalists across all government agencies in a second term.

I know some unhoused people who would love to beat the life out of that piece of shit

It’s at least 50%, you can’t tell me it’s less, not any more.

My grandfather, a sort of poor person's H.L. Mencken, used to say it was more like 90%.

Sturgeon's Law

man, cohen saying if trump owed someone money cohen would offer the person 20% of what trump owed and if they said no they didn't get anything! what a guy.

apparently he owed 50 different trump university vendors and they all took the 20% except for two of them. what happened to the two? they went away. classy.

Trump probably truly believes that stiffing people is smart business.

its just his whole "when you're a star they let you do it" ethos. you can do whatever you want. to anyone.

"THAT MAKES ME SMART"

j.d. vance behind trump in court today. looks like we have a winner. mamaw would be proud.

trump to j.d. : "take notes. you're gonna have to be dealing with a LOT of this shit for the next four years..."

Pence and Vance sort of rhyme, lend themselves to similar puns etc.

danger: stream of consciousness bullshit ahead—

to most entities the burden of litigation arbitration or negotiation is distracting, burdensome, and/or annoying enough to result in improved business models. trump by fame bluster and shamelessness, and the correct selection of markets and of trading victims, turned it into a variably successful series of grifts. he was bankrupt several times. eventually he moved mainly into selling his name. and then to politics, which has the lowest possible level of guaranty of performance. there’s still RE, but i sorta expect its legacy/vestigial? dunno, i could be wrong there. have assumed a while that without political trump, both the trademark trump and the RE trump collapse.

anyway politics has a lotta visibility but you can lie nearly without limit. it’s been a steady descent of standards for him, and a continual increase in public exposure and really, also an increase in the stakes for everyone.

he has mastered the double down, so we get to either: the system effectively collapses, or he is imprisoned (or eliminated).

lol that’s my narrative what is yours etc

you read that new yorker article and you really do end up blaming that t.v. producer. trump was on the outs. he had no money. nobody wanted his fucking steaks. and that guy threw him a lifeline. all of a sudden he was hugely famous in a way he hadn't been with his books and new york/casino fame. he was famous famous. sucks so bad. just a simple twist of fate.

I don't see how Vance helps Trump as his VP at all. The only worse Veep pick would be Laura Loomer.

that dude has 0 cred but yo i’ve said THAT shit before

he only cares about loyalty. he wants someone to go do his bidding. if vance convinces him he's that guy then he's in.

Vance did win a senate seat in Ohio, so he could conceivably help to solidify those 17 electoral college votes for Trump. Vance may be transparently awful in our eyes, but to anyone capable of voting for Trump, he's entirely acceptable. Appealing, even.

Ohio isn’t really a swing state these days

i'm sure the proud boy types would love him.

lool, one of the Trump defence team posits: is it possible that some of these (no doubt absolutely hundreds and hundreds of) calls (between Trump/Cohen) were pocket dials?

xpost they probably think he's a fed

Butt Dials lead to Butt Deals

Yeah Ohio is a lost cause Vance brings nothing to the table except his nauseating insincerity.

that's all trump brings to the table too! they'd be a match made in heaven. like a mini-trump.

yeah, but Vance was an "intellectual" who dumbed himself down to win a Senate seat. Trumpers will probably always be suspicious of him.

maybe if he shoots a dog

He will tell you about his uncle who shot a dog while high on Oxycontin because he was forgotten by Washington elites

trumpers will love vance if trump tells them to love him.

hopefully some pictures will surface of him volunteering in San Francisco, the most shameful thing one can do

During his first year, his professor Amy Chua, author of Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, persuaded him to write his memoir.

Why does Amy Chua turn up in every news story?

nobody really likes biden is the problem. there are people who REALLY like trump. there are no people who REALLY like biden.

I have no clue who will win, but elections aren't decided by rally sizes

Or boat parades, apparently.

US elections are usually won by the more charismatic candidate, except in the case of 2020, where Trump had so much negative charisma that he was beaten by a guy with no charisma.

offspring of ky refugee wants that false-ass motherfucker dead. hillbilly ulster scot grudge, my birthright.

Lmao at Trump smiling in court at Cohen's testimony about how pissed off he was when Trump gave him a much reduced bonus for 2016 even after Cohen had fronted the $130k for the payment to Stormy Daniels.

he only cares about loyalty. he wants someone to go do his bidding. if vance convinces him he's that guy then he's in.

I hope so, but in regards to the election, vance worries me because he is the most articulate of the vp candidates, they are all mostly morons

Yeah Vance is probably planning Trump’s assassination at the Inauguration

What will probably actually cause Trump to rule Vance out is the beard

“You look my stupid sons.”

He really hates his non-Barron sons. (And maybe Barron but no evidence as of yet.)

Heartbreaking, the worst person You know, etc

He’s not wrong there imo on hunting. Remarkable. I’m not sure he’s ever been right imo, so. Wow.

I hope it sticks in the guts of all his alpha douche supporters

trump doesn't like killing animals. he doesn't like fishing either. one of his better traits.

If it turns out he didn't keep White House pets because he doesn't think it's morally right to "own" an animal, that's gonna break a lot of brains

the first Western nation to ban vivisection was Germany under that 30's party that Don admires so much
