Trump Retweeted

Linda Suhler, PhD
‏@LindaSuhler
Dear God,
Thank you for answering our prayers.
I had no idea who this person was, so I got curious and googled her.

From: https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/02/election-polling-trouble-can-internet-data-save-it
Another unknown is the number of Twitter users who are paid hacks. One of the most influential pro-Trump tweeters of all...was @LindaSuhler. According to the account profile, it is a "Linda Suhler, Ph.D." The internet has no record of that person and direct Twitter messages from Science were never answered.

So, its possible that Trump is just echoing a posting from a Russian bot.
 
I honestly think that Trump believes they are one and the same.

I bet if you handed him a trophy that read 'First Prize: Zeppelin Pilot, Hungarian Games 1994: Donald Trump, Champion' he would remember flying a zeppelin in Hungary, and brag about it to rich people. 'Hey, I won a blimp race. Grand Champion of Europe!'

Maybe now.
But when Trump called up reporters claiming to be someone else and talking about how much tail Trump is getting, he knew that wasn't the case.
And he believed that if people believe he was a sex-machine, they would treat him like one.
But the point was that for his image, pretending to have major game was more important than actually getting laid.
 
Sometimes PhD means "Piled Higher and Deeper"...

Anyone putting PhD after his name is a bit pathetic, perhaps business contexts notwithstanding.

Putting it on your Twitter ID is more than a bit pathetic.

The tweet he re-tweeted was Nov. 2016. She's so proud that she pinned it.

No idea what her PhD is in.

I've found a few references to her being a retired molecular biologist who lives in Scottsdale, AZ, but only in articles that are talking about her presence on Twitter, Instagram, etc. Nothing about her actual career.

An NFL team may deal with large sums of money, but aren't teams fairly visible with regards to financing? (I know they keep some of their finances murky, but things like player contracts, ticket sales, etc. are pretty easy to calculate, and there'd be a lot more attention if the team was involved in any sort of financial deception.)

I figured the better money-laundering schemes would involve businesses that don't dominate the news at least 1 day a week.

I don't buy they would make good money laundering opportunities. Mostly because pretty much every source of revenue is publicly known from ticket sales to tv to radio. Maybe there is some reason I haven't considered though.

And he already had casinos which have to be great money laundering machines. That is why they get used for it all the time and his casinos got charged for it.

ANyway that painting in her tweet is like the artwork from Bioshock:Infinate.
It's weird to talk about a videogame predicting reality, but I thin Bioshcok Infinate did just that.....

Winsor McCay is one of the most famous art pioneers in history. I'm not surprised his style would have been imitated. I'm actually going through his Little Nemo in Slumberland series book right now.
 
Not sure that Mueller's remit covers this...I think it's confined to Russian involvement in the 2016 election..but you can bet this sure as hell will be investigated..probably by the SDNY or a House committee....
Why SDNY?

With casinos, there is nothing stopping someone to walk in with a bag of cash and buy a bunch of chips and not cash them like Trump's father did. Real estate seems good too because you can overpay for an asset and you can buy it through shell companies.

An NFL team just seems too public to me. Still, often the best way to steal or do something illegal is do it in plain sight. But I don't get using an NFL team.

Don't forget there's a reason the NFL prohibits publicly traded corporations from owning teams. Too much financial transparency.

Oh please, it would be nothing like that.

He would say “World Grand Champion.”

ETA
Then he’d brag about how Zeppelin racing is the hardest sport in the world. And the most dangerous. And that he won it on his first try.

MORE ETA
and like me, he would misspell Zeppelin.

And he beat Ben Quadinaros and Sebulba using a second-hand machine.
