Handsomedan:

 

Just saw a video about a Trump Rally held on private land recently, where everyone had park miles away and got bussed in. 
It took several hours to get everyone there and then after they'd heard his awful rhetoric, they went to leave and...there were no buses. 

 

The assumption is that the bus bills weren't paid, but I haven't seen any evidence of that. I also don;t know how mnay hours those people waited to get home, but it was a 5-6 mile walk to the carparks, so I'd imagine poeple were VERY late home. 

 

Did the Orange Lord care? No. He apparently went on a rant about immigrants. 

 

 

Not sure how accurate this is, but...

 

 

(of course, the orange buffoon apparently amplified a bs conspiracy theory afterwards about nearby petrol stations running out of fuel due to the Democrats. Or immigrants. Or something - anything other than him. 🙄)

The Guardian - Donald Trump pens 1am screed against controversial biopic The Apprentice

 

Former president calls film about his rise in real estate in 1970s and 80s a ‘politically disgusting hatchet job’

 

 

Not a happy camper.  🤬

 

 

What a plug for a movie he supposedly hates. Now everybody will want to see it. This idiot just doesn't have a clue. 

 

Interesting. "...I had a great relationship with her (Ivana) until the day she died." Which seems to imply he was there when she fell down the stairs.

 

 





Trump crowned? No faux King way!

To Trump a great relationship is enjoying the TAX Break Ivana gives you in death while never tending to her grave!

 

Are These Real 2023 Photos of Ivana Trump's Burial Site at Trump Golf Course?
The in-question photos, taken a year after Ivana Trump was laid to rest, showed the site obscured with grass and weeds.

Whoa... October 15, 2024 - by Heather Cox Richardson (substack.com)

 

Long but good article. He seems to be going quickly.

 

 

After Trump’s bizarre performance last night in Oaks, Pennsylvania, when he stopped taking questions and just swayed to his self-curated playlist for 39 minutes, his campaign this morning canceled a scheduled interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box, according to co-host of the show Joe Kernen. The campaign did not, though, cancel a scheduled live interview today with Bloomberg News and the Economic Club of Chicago. That interview echoed last night’s train wreck. 

 

Trump showed up almost an hour late to the event with moderator John Micklethwait, editor-in-chief of Bloomberg News. When he arrived, things went downhill fast. Micklethwait asked real questions about Trump’s approach to the economy, but the former president answered with aimless rants and campaign slogans that Micklethwait corrected, repeatedly redirecting Trump back to his actual questions. Trump quickly grew angry and combative.

 

When Micklethwait corrected Trump’s misunderstanding of the way tariffs work, Trump replied in front of a room full of people who understand the economy: “It must be hard for you to, you know, spend 25 years talking about tariffs as being negative and then have somebody explain to you that you're totally wrong.” Referring to analysis that his plans would explode the national debt, including analysis by the Wall Street Journal—hardly a left-wing outlet, as Mickelthwait pointed out—Trump replied: “What does the Wall Street Journal know? They’ve been wrong about everything. So have you, by the way….. You’ve been wrong about everything…. You’ve been wrong all your life on this stuff.”

Watched a CNN news clip last night to see the Mango Moron swaying and 'weaving' to the Y.M.C.A theme. I guess no-one's told him about its association with gay culture 😜

Did he get permission to play all those tunes? He certainly won’t pay royalties!





Whilst the difficult we can do immediately, the impossible takes a bit longer. However, miracles you will have to wait for.

He's already under Cease and Desist from the Village People.

 

Wow, that page is really long!

 

Anyway, I'm guessing he's got a stack of copyright infringement lawsuits incoming based on the length of the page listing which artists have told him they will not permit him to use their music.

As if he'd give a damn about "rights".

 

Law and order, alright.

In the past he has been able to skate by because of bulk licensing deals the publishers have with the venues, and not with his campaign.

... and at the same event ...

 

Independent (UK) - Trump tells people to vote on January 5 – and social media users are all making the same joke

 

yesterday

 


The former president was addressing a crowd at an Oaks, Pennsylvania, town hall on Monday night, as both presidential candidates made campaign stops in the crucial swing state just three weeks before the November 5 election.

 

While on stage, Trump urged Americans to get out and vote on Election Day.

 

The only problem was: Trump got the critical date wrong.

 

I’ll tell you, if everything works out and everybody gets out on January 5, or before,” Trump told the crowd, seemingly oblivious of his gaffe.

Since 2014, there's only 36,000 of these two Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, Toyota Mirai and Hyundai Nexo, ever sold.

There have been no reported incidents of hydrogen-powered cars catching fire, much less exploding, due to their hydrogen components.

In the same time, approximately 960,000 petrol and diesel vehicles may have caught fire worldwide.

So 0% versus 0.08%

Trump: ""And the new thing is hydrogen cars.

It's got one problem.

Ah, it's very violent.

If it blows up, you are not recognizable.

'Please come down an identify your husband. There's a blood stain on the tree.'”"

kingdragonfly: Expert looks at $100K Trump watch

Oisín O Malley

 

The entire point of the watch is to allow overseas governments (eg Russia etc) to funnel large sums of money to Trump via crypto and be extremely difficult to trace, and in return trump does not even need to supply the watch at all, but if he wins Trump will remove US support for Ukraine.

 

 

CNN went on a bit of a hunt for the maker and shock! horror! They're actually not Swiss at all 🙄

Funny thing is the guy running the company that registered the watch company saying

 

 

He suggested, though, that consumers should be “more wary” of a product tied to the Trump name and left little doubt how he viewed the former president.

 

“If Mr. Trump or anyone in his family were on the same side of the street I was on,” Pierce said, “I would cross the street.”

Mark Pierce is the father and business partner of Andrew Pierce who possibly does the day to day grifting. Family gatherings probably be "Dad STFU"
