Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

Is this what you do? Monitor the Donald Trump threads 24/7, and scold anyone who posts about Donald Trump on them? Jesus, man, this is more tiresome than anything you complain about.

"I don't care about these jokes and dunks--I'll just make sure I never miss one."

I'm not monitoring threads! just came upon this

but this is the day after the fairly consequential first televised congressional hearing about Jan 6th and Trump's treachery and nobody seems to care, at all

Just you Dan--you're the only one who cares, and you deserve a round of applause.

I'm sorry I offended you clemenza, I like you and repect you.

*respect

No need to apologize, I just don't get this obsession you have with trying to preempt any posting about Trump--or at least posting from me--that isn't sufficiently grave or angry or I don't what. I say some film reminds me about something about Trump and, no, can't do that; an innocuous joke, no, not that either. And again, if the mere mention of Trump is so mortally upsetting to you, the first course of action--as others besides me have suggested--is not to open up Trump-related threads.

it's my own issue and I won't open up a Trump thread again, but I think he is a monster and it’s hard for me to understand how any of you can find him funny or ironic or laughable in any way

(xpost) You'll never read this, because I know you're swearing off Trump threads forever, but--whether laughing at him (hopefully) or with him (ugh), that "any of you" accounts for what, 90% of anyone who knows who he is?

Donald Trump has become more popular since the January 6 Capitol attack

https://edition.cnn.com/2022/06/11/politics/donald-trump-january-6-democrats-moderate/index.html

the inevitability of it all... sigh

the election's not for two years, hell, an asteroid might hit by then.

can also guarantee when gas prices finally alleviate (even if a year from now) that will change

Even during his presidency the asshole’s popularity would get a temporary bump when he made fewer statements.

will he be as popular as the committee hearings wear on is, I guess, the question

but this is the day after the fairly consequential first televised congressional hearing about Jan 6th and Trump's treachery and nobody seems to care, at all

The fuck are you talking about?

Which means it's also the sixth anniversary of this sociopathic "appreciate the congrats" tweet from the man who would go on to become president https://t.co/5QRtYOKcxC pic.twitter.com/GGtkVQsTeo

Tackiness is the least of their faults but it’s still accurate to describe them as “ludicrously tacky”

No Trump Steaks? Cheapskates.

Apparently he none too pleased with Kevin McCarthy right now, since there's nobody there to 'defend' him

He may actually think this is a trial of some sort. Maybe we can bluff him into jail?

SCOOP: The House select committee investigating Jan. 6 sent a subpoena last week to ALEX HOLDER, a documentary filmmaker who was granted extensive access to President DONALD TRUMP and his inner circle, and who shot interviews with the then-president both before and after Jan. 6. The existence of this footage is previously unreported.

A source familiar with the project told Playbook on Monday night that Holder began filming on the campaign trail in September 2020 for a project on Trump’s reelection campaign. Over the course of several months, Holder had substantial access to Trump, Trump’s adult children and VP MIKE PENCE, both in the White House and on the campaign trail.

According to the subpoena, which was obtained exclusively by Playbook, the committee wants three main things from Holder:

(1) Raw footage from Jan. 6.

(2) Raw footage of interviews from September 2020 to present with Trump, Pence, DONALD TRUMP JR., IVANKA TRUMP, ERIC TRUMP and JARED KUSHNER.

(3) Raw footage “pertaining to discussions of election fraud or election integrity surrounding the November 2020 presidential election.”

Holder is expected to fully cooperate with the committee in an interview scheduled for Thursday. Read the full subpoena

TODAY’S JAN. 6 HEARING — At 1 p.m., the committee will gavel in for a hearing that centers on the pressure campaign Trump and his allies mounted to get state officials to overturn the 2020 election, including attempts to advance slates of “alternate electors” to flip the results in Trump’s favor.

As our Nicholas Wu and Kyle Cheney report this morning, that plan was concocted even before the election was actually called.

Really, I had no idea, before watching today's hearings, just how many state officials across the country, def including Black poll workers in Atlanta, but also white Reaganites etc., got the zoom lens and more from T. and his minions and local talent.

Half afraid the "raw footage" is Trump eating Rudy's ass

Xpost the story about civilians trying to break into election officials' homes trying to make citizens' arrests was pretty chilling.

lol wasn't that first big Trump book (Fire and Fury) written by some dude who figured out you could get unlimited access just by hanging around and sucking up a lot

Sounds right, but don't get it as response to my comment.

That music...

maybe I misunderstood what you were trying to say, my point is there's no real secret to anything these guys do, they'll tell anyone proudly

not a parody, also maybe one of the funniest tweets I've ever seen

The January 6th committee should cancel its upcoming hearings out of respect for President Trump while he is in mourning for the loss of a great friend, Shinzo Abe.

When he was a small child, Mr. Trump said, he went with his family to the Hamptons. While there, he acted at Gosman’s (Montauk’s best-known seafood spot) in a way that “exceeded the limits” of everyone’s patience. His mother, he said, took him to the bathroom and showed him “what Eastern European discipline was really all about.”

When it was over, he said, she told him, “And if you cry, we’re going to come back in here and do this again.”

The younger Mr. Trump — whose fiancée, the former Fox News personality Kimberly Guilfoyle, sat across the aisle from him — told another story about his sister Ivanka destroying a very pricey chandelier while playing in the house with a beach ball. “Ivanka managed to quickly convince my mother that it was me,” he said.

That time, the “remedy,” as he put it, was a “wooden spoon,” and what made his mother even more irate as she spanked him was his fervent denial of having played any role in the misbehavior. “Not only had I broken the chandelier, but now I was also lying to her,” he said.

But by the time she realized he was telling the truth, Mr. Trump said, she was “too tired to deal with Ivanka.”

...and if they really got out of line, they'd get spanked with rolled-up magazines with father on the cover!

(CNN) - Former first lady Melania Trump said in a new interview with Fox that she was "unaware" of the ongoing riot on January 6, 2021, because she was too busy photographing a rug in the White House. https://t.co/9xFG7WfB82
