Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

I think he spoke for all Americans when he told the 7 year-old kid that at his age it was "marginal" to still believe in Santa Claus.

when he’s right, he’s right

The one hilarious thing from Trump’s insane inauguration speech was George W Bush allegedly saying to his companions when it was over:”Well THAT was fucked up”.

the day george w bush finally became president

I think it was, "That was some weird shit," which somehow is even funnier.

Roy Cohn taught him well.. when threatened, counter-attack:

In the latest lawsuit - which was filed to the Florida State Circuit Court - Mr Trump accused Ms James of "a relentless, pernicious, public and unapologetic crusade" against him and the Trump Organization.

He also alleges that the attorney general's own case against him is a "plot" to obtain control of his business that began as a "cartoonish, thinly-veiled effort to publicly malign" the former president.

As a counter attack that's not worth a bucket of warm piss in regards the court system. it only works when the media picks it up, makes a story out of it, and his bogus claims get quoted as serious litigation.

which the media obligingly does for him, bcz their interests overlap.

It's wild seeing someone tweeting from a fake verified Trump account, openly question why they hadn't gotten suspended yet, and then continue going for another full day. pic.twitter.com/FdTcpF0J8l

Some people tried to leave his speech last night partway through and apparently security wouldn't let them leave, they were locked in until the end.

Welcome to the Hotel Maralago

At what point does that count as kidnapping?

Flashing onto Carrie closing the doors on those two suckers at the prom.

lol President Keyes!

the fact that he is even able to run at all is a sad sign for America and the world

I turned on his speech last night and he was talking about the Carters. I was like wtf?

Bien sûr, Soto's movie reference is classier than mine

― “uhh”—like, this is an insane oatmeal raisin cookie “uhh” (President Keyes

idk it's a courteous gesture considering how Aaron died

I was expecting him to diss Jimmy Carter for not having the balls to run against Reagan in 1984.

Hotel Maralago forever and ever now. Damnation.

Maybe it's another landscaping thing

Jealous of all the Jay-Z / Beyonce press he isn't getting.

This speech is Trump's message delivered with Jeb Bush's energy and Ted Cruz's charisma

I'm biased, but this dude running again falls into the "how can we miss you if you don't go away?" void. I mean, he's essentially been running for the past two years, why anyone should care more now is a mystery.

yeah I was honestly confused by the NYT opinion section being 90% trump today, like this is some seismic event. I guess they all had them ready to go in drafts lol

his fans care and the rest follow suit because they know he will not hesitate to throw them all under the bus if they hurt his precious feelings

The Nytimes made a big deal about hiring a *third* Trump reporter just last week. They're fuckin' lame.

It's doubtless all mummery and posing from Murdoch but still, that NY Post 'Florida Man' cover bullet and then the actual story.

(But there is something to be said to compare this to the NYT reaction.)

for one this version of Trump is a lot more openly fascist. for two he's way less fun. for three the evidence is mounting that he's actively torpedoing the Republican party so there aren't as many Trumpy loudmouths at Denny's to take advice from. not saying the MSM is gonna learn any lessons but I can see him not getting the clicks he used to.

he's way less fun.

Speak for yerself.

well, the question of him returning to Twitter or not is being solved by Elon Musk destroying Twitter before campaign season begins

I mean, I know he's just parroting his favorite dictators of the past and present, but it's hard to get any lols out of him being cheered for wanting to execute drug offenders.

Donald Trump was never fun unless you're Maggie Haberman. Habers gonna Habe.

I appreciated this since it delved into some details and data

Voting will be done purely on Twitter in 2024.

Yeah, I think he's saying "corridors of power"

I think he's saying "I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils"

Holy shit, thank you.

you'd think after working for decades in hotels & offices, the word 'corridor' would come up enough that you would know how to pronounce it, just through osmosis

I guess not

Jimmy Corridor Says Yes.

he's trying to say corridors but his face gets in the way

i like the shape of this distribution

and those 2 reviews are, i think, very representative of a person who loves the apprentice

Oh yeah,we're taking over the Carter.
