From somebody being sued by their former attorney for not paying their bills
From somebody who was sued for not paying his contractors.
Doesn't he owe a bunch of cops money from like 2016 still?
The guy currently on trial for racketeering is asking people for protection money or something bad will happen to them? Who would have thought!
Also "you have to pay your bills, unlike me who literally NEVER pays ANY bills." I mean, if there is one consistent element in Trump's character for the decades he's doing business is that he's constantly stiffing people.
Worked with a batshit crazy old lady in the quality department for about a year. She was stuck there (both job and location) while she cared for her very elderly mother. Before that she had something to do with finance, fashion and F1 racing (like a client liaison or something) but any way. She recalled a tale from late 80s early 90s of being in a very specific bank (Royal back of Scotland?) and watching Mr Trump storm out after being denied a loan. The utter bliss she experienced in telling that story every ting i asked to hear it again... Brought happiness to my heart.
I miss you Marylin you batshit crazy old lady.
Dude's a mob boss, everyone around him has taken the fall and he's still there. That's insane.
What is insane is that people are still taking the fall for him. When it's pretty clear Donnie cares only for himself. Everyone has convinced themself that they're special. No, they're not. Everyone is a stooge to Donnie.
The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, And Hells Angels lied to me. I thought mob bosses were intelligent, charismatic, and capable of playing 4d chess. Meanwhile...
Because he's not the real mob boss, he's the useful idiot for the people using him (first Mafia, now Putin).
Can't lose what you never had. Its laughable to pretend that Trump ever had a clue as to what NATO is or does.
He doesn't understand OUR military, how is he going to comprehend the utility of a trans-national mutual defense accord?
I'm frankly amazed he doesn't choke on his food, he's so fucking stupid.
If Putin doesn't like it, then Trump doesn't like it. He probably doesn't even know why.
He thinks NATO is his slum tenants and fancies himself a mob boss getting paid protection money.
My suspicion is that he got NATO and NAFTA confused years ago and never admitted it. Now he believes it's about trade and defense.
"One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, 'Well, sir,
Imma stop it right there. It's always possible that someone, out of a general professional attitude or decorum, used that 'sir' wording, but I'll be damned if I've heard Trump use that word in a context that doesn't sound like he's just making some bullshit up.
I mean, he pretty much always sounds like he's making some shit up, but my point stands!
I like how John Bolton (who is a massive douche nozzle by the way but gotta give credit where credit is due) called Trump out by saying that any time Trump tells a story where someone calls him "sir" then you know it's absolute bullshit.
"Sir" is one of Donnie's tells. If he tells a story that includes someone calling him sir, it's completely made up/never happened.
I mean, that's aside from him lying if his lips are moving.
This is some LinkedIn "then everyone clapped and it turned out the wolf I saved was the hiring manager all along and they made me CEO" type shit
If you get called "sir" in Europe, you are most likely getting scammed by a taxi driver.
Sorry, we were looking for "big country."
You gotta pay your bills.
This fucking guy... LOL oh man that is something isn't it? The guy famous for never paying his bills says this about a REAL life and death situation... FUCK TRUMP
Never forget... Every accusation is a confession with these people
How do people not see this as being directed by Putin? Russia is literally the only beneficiary of this "stupidity".
For the GOP voters? 50+ yrs of highly concentrated, and pointed propaganda.
For the nonvoters? Bc their favorite social media sites (this one included) are full of russian bad faith actors working to make Status Quo Joe seem somehow worse, or, at the very least, more ineffectual, than ronald mcdump.
Just saw a fella here the other day absolutely screeching and livid that Joe "hasn't done anything for Flint." I mean, neither did Donald and also Donald hamstrung the EPA as best he could to make things worse all over the nation.
The dishonesty is so overt. That guy didn't respond to anything, either, so no updates if he is concerned for the EPA or not.
Its all performative. Theres no shortage of 20something yr old leftist idealists that are ripe for the brainwashing. Just discovered The Dunk Tank, which i guess is more of the same.
24 year old leftist redneck the fuck is the dunk tank, is that some tankie shit im too Non Credible Defense pilled to understand.
The funny thing is, Russia would never actually strike NATO. I don't know what the fuck State or JCS are letting him get away with while DOJ jacks off with reports about the incumbent's mental health, but Trump needs to be gagged and thrown into solitary yesterday.
It certainly has the exact structure of all the other Russian agitation material, designed to breed resentment.
I can imagine the typical low-information voter: "What? They think we're required to fight for them? And they refuse to do their share at the same time? Oh the entitlement!" - bam - anger against EU, happy about Trump supposedly calling them out, may even support leaving NATO.
Trump supporters are more pathetic than the man himself. This is exemplified simply because this demonstration of his ineptitude as well as his various acts of indecency and immorality cannot and will not sway their opinion of the man.
The only way to change their opinion of him is for Trump himself to "go woke" so hard they no longer recognize him as their Cheeto covered Jesus.
Remember in 2016 when Republican types were adamant that Hillary wouldn't be tough enough on Putin, and that Liberals were Communists? And that the Liberals would let Russia do whatever it wanted?
And now those same Republicans are outspoken against helping Ukraine, and want to let Russia just have it. Their preferred candidate wants to dismantle the organization of countries that stands as the United front against Russian expansion. Working deliberately and blatantly toward Putin's interests isn't a problem to them at all.
Back then, I thought that if there was a single (decent) principle they actually stand for, that would have been it. Apparently I was wrong.
Kompromat in the form of the RNC's emails that have not been leaked.
Emails that WikiLeaks apparently has but said "nah we're not going to release them because there's totes nothing in there trust us".
They could've been neutral and trustworthy. Instead they had an axe to grind against Hillary, and prioritized that over being known for objective truth.
At this point what could possibly be in those emails that their voters wouldn't just dismiss?
At this point I suspect the main damage is done. But the dirt was found out a different way.
The big secret to hide was campaign funding and coordination. But Trump won anyway. Then didn't even get in trouble for it.
And later the Russia>>NRA dark money link was found and reported on. Without the media then going ape shit that the funnel was really Russia>>NRA>>GOP. And without any of the Biden administration cracking down on what happened.
So I suspect it's why they're all even more brazen now. Some of the dirt was found. It didn't amount to any punishment. So why bother trying to hide now?
He doesn't care, he's doing what Putin tells him. Destabilise the western alliance
Whether he knows what it is, is totally irrelevant. All he cares, is that he has something else he can hate on, something which his followers don't understand, so he can show them he's the man who stands up to people. Whether he is standing up to someone or not.
Well, really what it comes down to is that Putin wants Nato dissolved, and Trump is Putin's lil bitch.
It's a bit weird hearing people make a huge fuss over Trump not taking the Russian threat seriously while they themselves are refusing to spend even just the minimum they've already agreed to spend on defence. Especially if we're looking at the potential of the US being an unreliable partner, shouldn't we be putting a lot more effort into shoring things up here at home? (Canadian)
That this point I think he thinks that NATO is what you call TiVo, and that TiVo is still a thing.
I can guarantee you that if it isn't a woman's ass we're talking about, there's no chance he's grasped it.
Ostensibly? I'm pretty sure he was president for four years. Does anybody protest that?
Define President
He was president for 4 years and treated it like retirement. Even if it was explained to him exactly what NATO was several times, I doubt he paid attention or cared enough to retain the information.
Putin doesn't like NATO and that's all he needs to know about it.
He has this bizarre idea in his head that NATO is like one of his golf clubs with membership fees and not GDP pledges.
D. Trump, traitor
