Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

running for... podcaster of the year!

Lol

The spectacle of Donald Trump selling $60 Bibles is “a spit in the face of people that really believe”, the Rev Al Sharpton said, amid widespread backlash over the presumptive Republican presidential nominee’s latest moneymaking scheme.

“Blasphemy certainly comes to mind,” Sharpton told MSNBC.

“I think that people ought to realize how offensive this is to those of us that really believe in the Bible. He’s doing this during Holy Week. Tomorrow is Good Friday, Sunday is Easter. Of all of the times you want to hustle using the Bible, why would you do it during Holy Week, which is really a spit in the face of people that really believe in the Bible from a Christian point of view?”

i can't watch al sharpton on t.v. i just can't.

i feel like he belongs in a time capsule with trump.

couple old school new yorkers gotta love it baby

i was sick of both of them in the 80s! i just read too many tabloids back then...the daily news was on fire back then.

morelike al bluntton amirite

"sweatsuit" sharpton and donnie "trump the board game" trump, just a couple neighborhood guys

Crackin’ knuckles, breakin’ hearts, buyin’ BRYLCREEM by the case

ugh...

LOOOOOOOK AT MEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

just forever and ever. don't they ever get tired of it?

Citing a source “familiar with the details of the business arrangement”, the New York Times reported that Trump is “getting royalties” from purchases of the branded Bible

holy shit, he wrote the bible? what a mensch

yeah hes Q

My father-in-law taught a high school social studies class where one of the students was a teenage Al Sharpton. FIL says that Sharpton was very bright and opinionated.

sounds about right

can someone who speaks "conservative" do me a solid and explain why it's okay for lara trump to be the head of the RNC but joe biden should be impeached because his son does business? thanks in advance!

It's okay when we do it but not okay when you do it?

Because Hunter's penis

But Lara Trump's penis is a-ok.

I mean, blatantly hypocrisy trails just behind cruelty as central trait of modern conservatism. Tribalism at its finest.

Preserve your sanity and remember the rule is "we do what we want; you do what you're told"

Hypocrisy is far down the list of things to hate about the Right. They believe anything is justified.

That Christie considered a third-party bid at all is in part an indictment of Biden.

. . .
Prominent former GOP officeholders, from George W. Bush to Mike Pence to Paul Ryan, also haven’t been contacted.

This writer is fucking deranged

I reached out to every current Republican lawmaker who has refused to commit to Trump in the general election. Sens. Susan Collins (Maine) Mitt Romney (Utah), Todd Young (Indiana), Bill Cassidy (Louisiana) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) all said the same: they’ve not heard from Biden.
“It is surprising,” Collins told me. “It’s especially surprising because President Biden does understand the Senate, he has personal relationships with some of us.”

Contact them for what? To hear their expressions of "concern"? JFC.

Maybe it’s too early, in the campaign’s mind.

Would their voices even make a difference?

good morning, where's the consequences?

I was promised property seizures this week, guess not!

of course they're waiting for Biden to come to them, why do the right thing when you could withhold your endorsement to extract favors

Would their voices even make a difference?

This is the question. To paraphrase Stalin, how many divisions does Chris Christie have? How about Susan Collins?

I'm finding it increasingly difficult to discount the existence of demonic entities to whom one can sell their soul in exchange for a lifetime of moderate success and pretty much consequence-free malfeasance. I'm not exactly sure how else to explain how this motherfucker manages to effortlessly tiptoe between every motherfucking raindrop. Oh, you say a billion-dollar valuation of a meme stock is what staved off his financial ruin today? Okay, cool, yes, this is indeed still a rational world.

It's true, Americans deeply care about what Susan Collins thinks.

Susan Collins would talk about endorsing Biden for three months before finally endorsing Trump

Operation Pieceofsh!t, recruiting the Republicans who took one for the team. But can they build rockets?

while I have my concerns about the man's litany of crimes, up to and including trying to overthrow the federal government, the country cannot withstand four more years of Biden's divisive rhetoric

hard to parse the layers of sarcasm here...

why line go down

Trump: "Get me a Sharpie!"

i guess this is what precipitated it but its not like it wasnt known that it was losing tons of money company

New: Trump Media — the parent company of Truth Social — recorded $58m in losses against $4m in revenue in 2023, per SEC filings. The merger to take the company public last week unlocked new capital but the business fundamentals don’t justify $7bn valuation.
