Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

They made a movie once that presaged the Trump campaign. It was called "Pink Flamingos," and the highlight was when a 300 pound transvestite ate a plateful of dog shit.

If you're coming out of a Trump rally looking for fulfillment, that's just the movie for you.

 

He is a mentally ill man who has been shielded from any consequences of such by being born into wealth, who used vote-splitting and fame to win a major party nomination, and it turns out our culture is ill-equipped to prepare people for such an eventuality and they've normalized it to themselves.

 

A history of Trump tweeting about taxes, contradicting everything he is saying now on the subject:

Trump has a long history of Tweet-shaming on taxes

 

This one is outstanding:

 

Trump's entire message is that he is "the best businessman" and that his business acumen makes him the only choice for President. How does a great businessman lose 1,000,000,000 running a casino? I really don't care about any answer you can give me because the average person can't fathom someone losing a 1,000,000,000 in the gaming industry. He is a failure in business. End of story.

 

I really don't care about any answer you can give me...

LOL. That's a reasonable attitude.

Only the specific amount of the loss here is new information.

His losses in Atlantic City have been written about extensively.

 

Harry Reid is having the best morning.

 

The taxes story might not be a big deal to anybody but Trump - as his meltdown last night showed.

 

I never said that, either. I'm just saying there is logic to the idea that could cost him votes. Then again, he has said so many ridiculous things, told so many outrageous lies and failed so many times that it all gets lost. That may be the problem for Clinton. Republicans have chosen their targets with her and most of them are worthy of scrutiny. There are so many things for Trump's opponents to focus on that it may just be too difficult to focus.

 

Emails where she and staffers plot the coverup.

 

Though you seem to be suggesting otherwise, the specific amount does add something to the story. That is something you should have learned in your self-appointed role as a media critic.
