This campaign is going to kill him isn’t it? Imagine being 80 and trying to summon up the energy for this circus day after day. He’s sounding less energetic and more doddery every time he’s on, and the schtick just sounds so tired.
Basically he just wants to play golf and stay out of jail and he thinks being president is the only way to avoid the latter.

I think sometimes he’s a patsy.

'See, everyone got boners over the technology, and it was pretty incredible.

Watching missiles fly down air vents, pretty unbelievable. But couldn’t we feasibly use that same technology to shoot food at hungry people? Know what I mean?

Fly over Ethiopia, “There’s a guy that needs a banana!”

SHOOP.

The Stealth Banana. Smart fruit! I don’t know.’

So Trump has a number of cease and desists after using music from multiple artists in his rallies without permission. Someone also posted an obviously AI photo of “Swifties” supporting Trump, with an insinuation that Swift had sided with Trump. Trump retweeted and told everyone “I accept.”

Red Hot Chilli Peppers have said any royalties received from being played at a Trump Rally will be donated immediately to the Harris Campaign

He just ignores them - Foo Fighters now the latest as well. He has been ignoring cease and desists from The Rolling Stones for 8 years, if they can’t get him to stop than it is a pointless exercise really.

Lol, as if Trump has ever paid a bill.

He reportedly owes millions of dollars to multiple cities after staging rallies there in the previous election cycle…

There’s also reports coming out that he’s been using the campaign to funnel a huge amount of money into his private businesses.

I can’t tell whether you are writing these things in jest or not :upside_down_face:

huh?

Ok maybe not millions, but added up, could be around a million or so

I think he means that it would be the default assumption that Trump is siphoning money for himself. He did the same when he was president and his last campaign too.

So what your saying, is Trump is just being Trump?

Sorry! Had a bad sleep after coming down with meat sweats last night. I’m all over the place today!

A rally a week or two ago his jet made an unplanned landing due to “mechanical issue” and he had to get a motorcade 2 hours or so from an alternative airport. Rumour is he had an unpaid fuel bill at the original destination.

Would love to see that thing clamped and repo’d.

Amusing AI clip of “what if Trump took Ayahuasca”

“They say I’m a great shaman, maybe the best…”

A bunch of right wing media grifters apparently named in an indictment as taking money from a Russian influence operation.

What gets me is how terrible they all are. I just dont get how people watch these chumps and get taken by it all. They’re all so obviously stupid. Self selecting scam stuff I guess.

Hey the “lefties” that appeal often are just as baffling to me.

Those ‘influencers’ are so wise. Political & geopolitical professors all of them !!
