Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

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'

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.

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

The relatively-youthful US has certainly done what it could to catch up with the accrued violence of much older nations, I'll grant you that. Maybe Donnie will get us there.

My god, it's made of scrote.

I feel badly for his clothes.

trump wearing a shirt with "trump" on it is like that thing where ppl wear band t-shirts to the same band's concert only 1000x worse

If you blow the image up to its full size (not that I'm recommending you do so) the swollen, boiled-looking bullfrog neck is almost Lovecraftian.

they are not dumb:

"Merchan stops testimony, says he realizes jurors weren’t given writing materials to take notes. At least 10 raise their hands when asked if they’d like some."

this is going to be a pretty crazy trial.

great characters. The Fixer. The Rag King. The Porn Star. The Orange Boss.

Tom Wolfe is very upset that he's dead right now.

so badly faked it loses half a letter grade but still funny

i wonder if news networks gave guidelines for how to report on pecker

so the defense's argument is essentially "this should not be a crime"??

yes

i wonder if news networks gave guidelines for how to report on pecker

Just heard a woman reporter on Sky News say, "Pecker is going to be huge".

it's the 'catch and kill' part that isn't a crime; it's the down-ballot ramifications wrt the election and that doing c&k was in service of interfering w the election

Epner with a solid point earlier:

I'm reading the live blogging of Todd Blanche's opening statement and looking for one thing: Does Todd Blanche saying something along the lines of "You don't have to like Donald Trump to reject the charges in this case."

I have not seen Blanche say anything like that yet.

FPOTUS may have barred Blanche from saying it. Without having been privy to their strategic discussions, I'm virtually certain that Blanche & Necheles want that to be said during the opening. It is what every defense counsel says in a case where the defendant has some fleas on him.

The prosecution has objected to three separate portions of Blanche's opening (which is rare). Each of those objections has been SUSTAINED (meaning the judge ruled for the prosecution and against Trump).

This is horrible for Blanche's credibility with the jury, in my training & experience.

He implicitly notes that this is in contrast to the prosecutors being upfront about Cohen's own flaws, and hazarded a guess as to how their closing argument could go. But yeah, Trump BEING Trump, having to at any point admit a flaw seems like a no-go so he wouldn't let his lawyers do that either, and FWIW, this suddenly becomes a clear running line across ALL his legal cases, essentially hiding in plain sight. He never fails, is only failed, etc.

had Trump just paid out of his own pocket, is it likely that nobody knows who Stormy Daniels is today? or were there enough people poking around Trump's finances that someone might've figured it out?

Trump’s motorcade left the courthouse just after 1:05 p.m., wrapping up the trial’s first day of testimony. The view was blocked by an N.Y.P.D. dump truck, to many reporters’ great frustration.

>had Trump just paid out of his own pocket, is it likely that nobody knows who Stormy Daniels is today? or were there enough people poking around Trump's finances that someone might've figured it out?

aiui there will be testimony centered around why payments went thru cohen and not direct from trump or trump org

the thing Trump hates most in the world is losing

I don't think this is right. Maybe it depends what losing means. What he hates is not being the centre of attention. Losing isn't so bad (why would you take up so many battles otherwise?) as long as you get to keep fighting (with his ideologically fanatical associates, elected or not, also more interested in fighting than winning generally) and being the CoA.

Why does the NYPD have a dump truck

that's where they put all the skells, second story men, sneak thieves, and peepers.

xpost maybe it was a police officer w/ a big ass

Special Sanitation Unit

they are literally for the purpose they were used today: mobile barriers. they get used during parades. they are managed by nypd counterterrorism. weird fuckin city.

apparently they are filled with sand to help them absorb explosions. oy vey.

who isn't?

Is there a Law and Order episode where they find a body in the sand truck?

lmao xp

What he hates is not being the centre of attention.

He also seems to take great pleasure in humiliating others.

seems very illegal

FPOTUS

i too FPed POTUS

Gotta say I am somewhat gobsmacked by the defence narrative - “it was just a piece of routine business to conceal his actions, you know, so voters wouldn’t be influenced by knowing what he’s really like”.

You’ve Got FPOTUS On Your Breath

any good anagrams for Walt Nauta. i suck at anagrams.

I won't be said if Cohen falls down an elevator shaft 30 seconds after the last time he testifies against Trump.

xp Tuna at Law

Cohen is even dumber than his former boss. Why on earth would you tweet that during a trial at which you're the flawed star witness

I mean he has tapes of incriminating conversations and already went to jail for this so idk if it matters how "flawed" he is, in fact perhaps being "flawed" shows the jury exactly what kind of scumbag Trump needed to handle his "business"

actually the more I think about it the less I'm worried about some rogue Trump voter on the jury tanking the whole thing. like there may be people on the jury who voted Trump but I don't think any of the ride-or-dies could've made it on (and the prosecution almost certainly used their strikes on anyone they suspected was one) and if anything could deprogram a Trump voter it's actually having to spend a month and a half around the guy, hearing the whining and seeing him fall asleep and rip ass in the courtroom as piles and piles of evidence mounted against him. also this is six weeks in which they won't be able to watch FOX News and there have been studies showing just keeping these people away from the propaganda for a little bit makes them way more moderate.

also important to remember they explicitly tell the jury they are not there to decide if the defendant committed a crime, they're there to decide if he did X, Y, and Z, which are often very specific things, things which I assume the prosecution has a ton of evidence for. so whoever wants to hold this up is going to have to look like an insane person in front of a group of people who will have been their only real contacts for 6 weeks

I’d say the fact that Trump did not have the wherewithal to be able to set up shell corps and off shore accounts to handle such slush funds and make such payments hard to track is further proof he is a pretty shitty evil business genius.
