Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Those oranges are much less red than that apple was four years ago.

 

"I think Clinton is going to win but I'm going to post every scrap that can be spun to diminish her chances" is a nice way to ride the fence.

 

schiezainc?

 

Hah that's a good call. In same vein you could make a case that the girl to the left is
Pam Beasley.

 

There's definitely a "z" in there ...

 

As a member of the media, I find Trump's lashing out today to be awful and offensive. I realize it's red meat for his supporters and they love it.

But when he says he didn't want credit for the money raised for veterans? Wanted to keep it quiet? Just do a good thing quietly and with no publicity?

Of all the lies he's told and ridiculous things he's said, this might be the worst. He's never done anything without wanting credit. His ego won't allow it.

 

I also like how he said he gave the money even though he was not "obligated" to do so.

Yes, just because you said you raised $6 million, including giving $1 million of your own, does not mean you actually have to give the money.

Shows you how much Trimp values his own word.

 

It's funny to think back about Al Gore, who basically didn't win the presidency because the press ridiculed him and branded him as a liar because he:

1. Said he took the initiative in "creating" in the Internet while in Congress (true! Gingrich claimed Gore said "invented" and people like Maureen Dowd repeated it over and over again until it was accepted as truth.)
2. Said he was the inspiration for the lead character in Love Story (true! Eric Segal said Oliver Barrett was inspired by Gore (but also Tommy Lee Jones) when they were both at Harvard.)
3. Told a story to a group of school kids about a girl writing him a letter asking that a toxic dump in Tennessee get cleaned up as an example of how you should reject cynicism and get involved and be an agent of change, and a NYT reporter AND a Washington Post reporter claimed he said "I was the one who started it all" when what he actually said was "That was the one that started it all." (And they issued tiny corrections 10 days later!)

Now we have a presidential candidate who never goes a single day without actually lying about something, and for the longest time, the press be like "Oh well, Trump gonna Trump!"

 

Your post pre-supposes that Donald LittleFingers has the capability of getting and maintaining an erection. Given his incessant whining and crying I believe LittleFingers is impotent and permanently flaccid. He's more likely to purchase Monestat 1 for personal use than Viagra

 

You left out one of my favorites:

''Throughout most of my life, I raised tobacco. I want you to know that with my own hands, all of my life, I put it in the plant beds and transferred it. I've hoed it. I've dug in it. I've sprayed it, I've chopped it, I've shredded it, spiked it, put it in the barn and stripped it and sold it.''

Al Gore Has Uncomfortable Past With The Tobacco Industry

 

The conversations must have started around the age of 10.

 

The old white coots waiting in the tire shop lobby with me have decided that Sarah Palin should be Secretary of Energy, Judge Jeanine the Attorney General and that transgender people are fakes and designed to draw attention away from "the real issues." Somebody smother me with Scalia's pillow.
