REMIND ME AGAIN HOW THE LITTLE HORSE-SHAPED ONES MOVE?

Vladimir Putin posted:

Treason is a non starter. Legally the definition is so narrow that there’s no way Trump could be prosecuted for treason.

Oh I'm not suggesting anyone is going to get charged with treason. It's just one of the several crimes you can theoretically commit while doing a collusion.

Is there any evidence at all that Trump ever reads the comments to his tweets? I think he just looks at the number of likes and retweets and gets a chub. He doesn’t have the capacity or insight to read any replies.

There's people who have been blocked by Trump and subsequently wear it as a badge of honor, but I think it just might be someone else who has access blocking people

He's retweeted some replies to his tweets before. They usually end up being open white supremacists or obvious bots.

My favorite thing about the sycophantic (and very Trumpy) "no no no Hillary only pretended to be lying/ignorant about Nancy Reagan in order to set a trap for the biased media, tricking them into reporting how bad the Reagans really were" defense, is that if true it makes Hillary even more incompetent because the next thing she did was tour around the country fellating the Reagans and comparing herself to them, promising to unite the country just like they did :laffo:

Leftist idiots think Trump making GBS threads himself looks bad, but Trump is once again playing 4D chess. Let me explain. Have you ever intentionally farted in the presence of someone? I have. They didn't say anything, because they knew I was the dominant person in the room. They couldn't say anything, even though I stared them and held eye contact for several seconds, basically daring them to make a comment or even show the hint of a smile. They changed the subject instead because they were so uncomfortable by me projecting my power. So now Trump dials that up to eleven and takes a loving poo poo in front of all the so-called "world leaders". And again they couldn't say anything because U-loving-SA baby! We have the strongest President in generations and no one dares slight him, unlike with Obama.

"Yeah she was a smart person. I'm smarter, but she was smart. Kinda smart. Crooked, though. You know, I beat her in the election. Biggest win ever. Everyone said she would win, but I won. I was going to lock her up but I felt so bad for her. Now she's locked up forever, and it isn't in heaven, if you know what I'm saying. She did bad things, you know? "

That's a little "my uncle who works at nintendo," But if you're right, then Pence would totally pile on in, isn't he one of the American Christian fanatics that are trying to bring about a war there to catalyze the Second Coming?

I forget the easily googled name of that particular belief.

I know, I immediately thought that as I hit submit, but this person has decades of experience on K Street and they're blood. It's legit. It came to mind because I remember reading about the conditions with Reagan where the last person to talk to him about something basically made the idea stick except with Trump, I bet it's whoever can give the best sales pitch in a slick way. Adelson fits that. He's a lumpy gremlin, but he's a business type that knows how to talk to a clown like The President. Trump was probably floating when talking to him...actually being in the presence of a guy with real no-strings money.

Pence is a Dominionist type...or at least he's some sort of reformed Catholic that buys into it, so yeah, he's all in on this concept. They're not going to stop until the Jews build the 3rd Temple to get the Sky Wizard to appear. He's not going to use any sort of bombast to talk about it because he's not Trump, he's not stupid and if anything...the End of Days Christian sect has been pretty good at keeping on the sly lately.

The best part about this is that from I can gather Trump just ran into a reporter at a golf club and started talking to the guy with no senior staff around. He had the CEO of Newsmax with him and that was it. Just an hour and a half of total rambling without a handler. It's beautiful in its own way.

There is so, so much in this interview but this:

quote:

TRUMP: So for the purposes of what’s going on with this phony Russian deal, which, by the way, you’ve heard me say it, is only an excuse for losing an election that they should have won, because it’s very hard for a Republican to win the Electoral College. O.K.? You start off with New York, California.

It's so difficult for the GOP to win the Electoral College that he is the first Republican president... ever.

The Al Smith Dinner should have told you everything you need to know w/r/t Trump, decorum, and Hillary Clinton. If he couldn't get through a 20 speech meant to contain only good natured, light-hearted, and jocular jabs at one's opponent without making a raging prick of himself, then he will never not be a swollen rear end in a top hat about Hillary Clinton if put near a microphone/camera/sufficiently large crowd.

I love the "we got to the moon and so Russia quit the space race" stuff. Russia 'quit' because the US beat them to the moon after they beat the US in to space. The race was over. If it had continued we'd have had a manned mission to Mars (or further) by now because NASA and the Russian space program would've gotten hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of dollars more in funding over the last few decades than what they've received.

Any hope for this being funny?

If he has to run on a treadmill as part of the physical please, please have it be recorded or live streamed. I want to see how many seconds it takes for Trump to wheeze and give up, considering his embarrassing ride behind other world leaders in Europe earlier this year.

I really hope this is going to be a full read of his actual height/weight/blood pressure/etc at the very least. It won't, though, because he's only going to be allowed to read the information Trump says he can. So there's absolutely no way he's going ot say "the POTUS is X inches tall any Y pounds" since it'd confirm he's an obese rear end in a top hat. We're going to get a "he's fit for duty" statement and then Trump will tweet about how in shape and swole he is. Ben Garrison will furiously masturbate while drawing another Adonis Trump comic.
