Trump runs for POTUS / Trumped Up! Part V

Not open for further replies.
Below are some quotes from an article that was in Vanity Fair magazine twenty-six years ago:
[T]he news broke last winter that Trump’s much-chronicled marriage to Ivana was breaking up after twelve years and three children and that Trump had a twenty-six-year-old model-actress girlfriend whose name was Marla Maples. “Now he calls his beach house ‘Marla Lago,’ ” Maples whispered delightedly. It was such a cute joke, playing on Mar-a-Lago...
The comment, Marla Lago, was made during an impromptu cable TV interview at the US Open tennis matches in Forest Hills Queens. This was one of Maples first public appearances since the news of her romance with Trump became public and Trump had several staffers on-hand to keep an eye on her. They told her she "didn't have to do the interview," but Marla said she wanted to do the interview -- in the stands during the tennis match -- because she "hates to disappoint anyone."
Trump employees had a right to be concerned. Trump’s empire is perilously close to ruin...Marla’s first public outing was supposed to have been at the opening of the new Trump Taj Mahal on April 5. The Taj needs to take in $1.3 million a day to break even (it has been unable to do so), the casino business is currently in a slump, and Marla’s appearance would have guaranteed absolute pandemonium. But Donald’s family managed to persuade him that this was going too far. Link

Mind you this was from a story published in 1990. This is the Donald Trump most New Yorkers have been familiar with for literally decades. The son of a wealthy New York developer, a guy with a huge ego, no morals, clever but not too bright and a bit of a jerk. Run for President? I wouldn't consider him for any public office much less the highest one in the land. He's about the least trustworthy guy I can imagine.
 
Or, she may have sought guidance from the establishment GOP and they may have asked her to take one for the team. See if you can right the ship, since this is the ship we got.
I've been wondering if she isn't some sort of Hail Mary pass by the RNC, with a written indemnity against career damage. And free therapy for life.
 
One thing that the Trump sniffles issue did was really take the steam out of Trump's attack on Hilary's Health.Now that is a wash.
 
Better yet, Trump should just mock up a tax return that makes it look like he paid all of his taxes, contributed lots of money to charity anonymously, and checked the box to give $3 to the Presidential campaign fund, and then release it. Somebody somewhere would have to break the law to prove it's a fraud, which would undermine the claim that it's a fraud.

It's not really such a novel idea I guess. Obama did it with his birth certificate. ;)


Along with using his time machine to go back and get a fake birth announcement planted in the newspapers.

That's the only reason he got away with it.
 
CNN just pushed a notification to my iPad that the debate commission is admitting something was wrong with Trump's microphone.

"Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump's audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall," the commission said in a statement. No other details were immediately made available.
Note the caveat.
 
I posted without comment, thinking it was interesting.

On another thread, it's pointed out that CNN made an error - it was not the microphone, but something in the audio processing going to the speakers in the hall. So what was heard on TV was apparently not affected.
 
Man, Trump has taken the bait on this Alicia Machado thing SO HARD it's hilarious. It's like he can't help it! He literally CANNOT ignore a slight and doesn't care in the least about "punching down". If a baby gave him a funny look he'd probably go off on a diatribe about the kid.

How ironic is it that he is accusing her of appearing in a "sex tape" (she wasn't really) when his own wife was in nudie pictures? And Trump himself has appeared in a soft porn video (not, thankfully in a state of undress, but he was in a Playboy video). He also likes to talk publicly about his extramarital affairs, even calling up reporters as "John Barron" to spread rumors about his own dalliances. But she's "disgusting" for appearing in a "sex tape".

But the beautiful thing is he's doing it to himself. He took the bait hook, line and sinker and he's thrashing around on that hook like crazy!

Trump’s Astounding, Hypocritical Cruelty Peaks With Alicia Machado “Sex Tape” Tweet
 
Another stunning bit of hypocrisy is Trump slamming Hillary for disparaging Bill's "bimbos", while simultaneously smearing "disgusting" Machado, and smearing her with a non-existant sex tape.

And thanks to BuzzFeed and Rachel Maddow for letting us know, low and behold a Donald porn movie has surfaced.

:sdl:

Seriously.

Donald Trump Appeared In A 2000 Playboy Softcore Porn
Donald Trump made an appearance in an explicit 2000 Playboy video.

Trump’s role in the porn is relatively benign and centers around him breaking a bottle of champagne on a Playboy-branded limo while several of the playmates are visiting New York City. BuzzFeed News obtained the footage from the online-only Buffalo, New York–based adult video store Cinema Cornucopia.

Other scenes from the film feature fully nude women posing in sexual positions, dancing naked, touching themselves while naked, touching each other sensually, rubbing honey on themselves, taking a bath, and dressing in costumes.

... On a bus tour hunt for the 2000 Playmate of the Year around the country, ... Trump welcomes the Playmates in New York and pops a bottle of champagne to kick off the New York stop. Trump then pours it over the Playboy bunny logo.

“Beauty is beauty, and let’s see what happens with New York,” Trump says.

My hypothesis is that this is all about the SCOTUS. There's just no other reason that would make any sense whatsoever.

The Pubies supporting Trump and gambling with the future of this country no doubt expect him to rubber stamp all their policies. There is no doubt in my mind they are hoping for puppet POTUS.

His followers, OTOH, actually like what they see.

Of course he would. He would provide no leadership of his own. In fact, he would be mostly disengaged from all but a couple of issues that would benefit him the most. Other than that, he'd be a puppet of the right. And they know it.
 
Is there a forum for Trump with actual GOYV efforts? I feel like his supporters are like the Simpsons episode where Bart runs for class president.
 
This was the headline on the New York Post front page one afternoon in 1990.
​

It makes you wonder what kind of woman/person would make that comment, even to friends, about the married man she was dating. For starters, it implies she'd had plenty of sex partners with which to compare The Don.

Possibly even worse, many people believed it was all smoke and mirrors, the previous guy she'd been living with was an ex-New York City cop who was eking out a living as a bit player in movies. That The Don could have been impotent and Maples would still say it, this was her chance at a sugar daddy and she was going to do whatever she had to do to land him. Most people I knew suspected that either Maples was
  1. Playing Trump with the comment.
  2. Or Trump may have passed along the comment to the media.

I remember seeing the headline back then and not really thinking anything of it -- it was Donald Trump after all -- but if anyone had suggested, "Someday this guy will run for President as a Republican," I would have thought they were slightly insane. In fact, it still seems sightly insane to me. :rolleyes:
