Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4DLzpB8e84

I think we have underestimated the comedic genius of Donald Trump.

Trump's beef with windmills is personal:

Of course. For him, everything is about his personal grudges.

at the the Trump rallies, in between rants about ripping up the constitution and destroying the free press and executing generals etc... He keeps telling his followers that the deep state is coming for them. But luckily he's the human shield protecting them! I don't why I find that so funny, but there is just something so ridiculous and unreal about the whole spectacle that cracks me up.

It's of a piece with his saying in 2016 that "I alone can fix it." He is playing into his followers' need for a savior, and I think on some level he really believes he is some kind of superhero.

it's a handy way for him to deflect all the ongoing legal cases against him

Muad'Dumb.

one of his former staffers, who I think has flipped, has said he used classified documents as post-it notes. He was writing to-do lists on the other side of them! I don't think anyone in his position would do something so dumb out of carelessness. I think that was his way of demonstrating to staff that he's a real president and he can do what he likes with classified docs. Because that is the kind of prick he is.

Muad'Dumb.

Q: What do you despise? By this are you truly known.

DT: Windmills

I saw some clip of him posing with a gun dude and it was so creepy. He just repeatedly pops his gruesome smile as needed, giving the thumbs up, while the gun dude grins like a goon. And then as soon as the picture is taken goes back to his usual default frown.

The Trump supporter who posted the viral video of Donald insisting he wanted to buy a Glock – which legally could have gotten Donald in a lot of legal trouble – DELETED it.

Too late. I already put it in the family archive. 🧵👇 pic.twitter.com/gN2buUVlLd

Well now we know what Q stands for

lol they should incorporate that into their theory

Curious what the Secret Service thinks about these dudes with their pistols waving around by the ex-prez

They probably think, these are my people.

So if I just put on a vest and get a doofy Richard Spencer buzz cut, I can get right up next to him with a pistol?

Good to know

Add getting a glock and instantly dropping it and shooting himself in the dick and balls to funniest ways he could die

You think Alec Baldwin does a good Trump impression? Wait till you see Trump's Baldwin impression.

He should really buy an American-made pistol, but Trump has never shot a firearm in his life, so he can be forgiven for not knowing what a Colt is

It's of a piece with his saying in 2016 that "I alone can fix it."

Worst Live cover ever

they could just photoshop him doing that goofy low thumbs-up into any stupid situation and I'd accept the photo as legit

A judge has ruled that Donald Trump committed fraud for years while building the real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and the White House.

Judge Arthur Engoron, ruling Tuesday in a civil lawsuit brought by New York’s attorney general, found that the former president and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing financing....

Engoron’s ruling, in a phase of the case known as summary judgment, resolves the key claim in James’ lawsuit, but six others remain.

Engoron is slated to hold a non-jury trial starting Oct. 2 before deciding on those claims and any punishments he may impose.

a stern warning and a middling fine

Two whole bucks!

IDK wasn't this the judge that was pounding the bench in rage the other day?

Yeah. Iirc, this call for summary judgement came about because the fraud was so blatant the prosecution basically argued to the judge that a trial was irrelevant, since no one disagreed on the facts. Apparently (again, if I was reading correctly) this kind of ruling is relatively rare.

Pretty much. It's why they were desperately trying to get him thrown off the case too, I think they read the tea leaves.

Oh looks like Engoron sanctioned Trump's lawyers too!

Wait, this judgement also orders the Trump Org and all its LLCs ... dissolved?

engoron spengelerer

hopefully dissolved in acid

From MSN:

"The documents here clearly contain fraudulent valuations that defendants used in business," Engoron wrote in his ruling, in which he ordered the defendants' New York business certificates canceled. He ordered that within 10 days, they must recommend potential independent receivers to manage the dissolution of the canceled LLCs.

Same MSN story:

Engoron also ruled Tuesday on a separate motion by the New York attorney general seeking sanctions against Trump's legal team for repeatedly making arguments Engoron and other courts had already rejected. Engoron ruled in the attorney general's favor, fining five attorneys $7,500 each.

In addition to finding that Trump committed fraud, the judge canceled the certificates of various Trump businesses, appointed a former judge as an independent monitor of the Trump Organization, and will appoint receivers to manage the canceled LLCs.

This is a pretty big deal. https://t.co/0Z4y3lkHTK

Daaaaaaaaamn

Should be noted that the summary finding of fraud extends to Donald Jr and Eric, too.

The deposition line quoted in the last sentence of this paragraph is pretty telling. https://t.co/bn4wuPb3eC pic.twitter.com/vQYWIreZYt

Oh man. The combination of off-the-charts levels of idiocy and chutzpah in that attempt at a defense there is just staggering, even for him

I can't stop re-reading that and giggling in sheer disbelief that anyone would say that to another human being to bolster their argument, let alone to a judge!

value is subjective and he's also said the Saudis would pay whatever fucking price he puts on his real estate portfolio... because it's me!!

They pass for access, I sell them access
