Trump runs for POTUS / Trumped Up! Part V

[Dr. Keith]

Screaming at an assistant, and security like a banshee, for no other reason than she could?
YES!

Never work for a law firm. That is SOP for partners, especially litigators. Anything short of drawing blood, that is.

 

[CapelDodger]

Oh, look. Trump attacking someone and telling lies about them again. Must be a day ending in "y".

Simply disgusting. There's nothing this twisted piece of crap won't stoop to.

No, but spent a lot of time around Joe Jamail. Tough man for sure, but never like that. That I saw.

He opened with a joke about the drinking water in Flint, Michigan? Yikes!

He's not a fan of food safety.

In a fact sheet posted online Thursday, the campaign highlighted a number of "specific regulations to be eliminated" under the GOP nominee's economic plan, including what they called the "FDA Food Police."

“The FDA Food Police, which*dictate how the federal government expects farmers to produce fruits and vegetables and even dictates the nutritional content of dog food,” it read.

“The rules govern the soil farmers use, farm and food production hygiene, food packaging, food temperatures and even what animals may roam which fields and when,” the statement continued. "It also greatly increased inspections of food 'facilities,' and levies new taxes to pay for this inspection overkill."

Donald personally signed the illegal donation from his foundation to Pam Bondi's PAC.

Ah, yes, no, but

The fact sheet was later removed from the website and a new fact sheet detailing Trump's economic agenda did not include mention of the FDA.

I feel a bit dirty for saying so, but it was funny.

You still can't drink the water in Mexico, and didn't the Bailout revive car manufacturing in the US?

Note to the basket dwellers - THAT is evidence of pay for play.


Game over boys.

This is marvellous stuff

[Trump lawyer] Garten said the billionaire businessman personally signs hundreds of checks a week, and that he simply didn't catch the error.

"He traditionally signs a lot of checks," said Garten, who serves as in-house counsel for various business interests at Trump Tower in New York City. "It's a way for him to monitor and keep control over what's going on in the company. It's just his way. ... I've personally been in his office numerous times and seen a big stack of checks on his desk for him to sign."

So he monitors his business by signing so many checks he can't be expected to catch an error.

Lawyers. Doncha love 'em? If Trump's lawyers aren't robbing him blind something's well out of wack with the universe.

 

[CapelDodger]

On reflection (my previous post was pretty much reflex), "He traditionally signs a lot of cheques" is an odd way of putting it. Why not "normally"? "Traditionally" seems rather overblown, even for a lawyer. As if it's a ceremony. Performed by a cult-figure.

Maybe it's just me.

 

[NoahFence]

Navin R. Johnson signed a lot of checks, too.

Aside from Trump not being born a poor black child, the similarities are uncanny.

This one could play and play. I'm not saying it will, but there has to a be a strong temptation for journalists at this stage to stop pounding the stale old narrative - Hillary/Scandal, Trump/Crazy Antics - and get on a new one -Trump/Scandal. Before the audience just drifts away.

 

[Cl1mh4224rd]

Oh and Trump's son has said Trump won't release his tax returns because 'they would distract from his message'.

I'm guessing that message is, "I'm rich and successful."

Nope, not sexist enough! /SG mode.

This forum so needs a LIKE feature.

Donald says, "he'll answer the birther question at the right time," which is presumably at the debate, so he gets credit from the media for the pivot.

It's ok when a (R) does it. But when a (D) might have, or is implied to something similar, its automatically wrong.

For all the heat Hillary took over the press conference issue, Donald is the only candidate that doesn't travel with his press corps.
