Donald J Trump: Rip Van Winkle edition

I think he wants a VP he can bang.

So probably Ivanka

Idk, can easily see him say:

“I mean look at her! Who wouldn’t want her as their vice president? Yow!”

Sure, he pretty much already did that with Noem.

Been at least one lifetime movie and numerous true crime shows about Cullen Davis. I am more aware of it simply because it happened where I live and it’s been talked about forever here.

… if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone. Does that make sense?” he asks.

Does it make sense? Yes. Yes, it does.

There are other Republican donors who might eventually back Trump, however, including Blackstone CEO Steve Schwarzman and casino executive Miriam Adelson.

Not sure I can root for the mavericks any more.

Pole is missing current governors, and Noem is a pretty likely candidate.

Michele Tafoya is maga?

I’m telling you guys most everyone involved with the NFL is at least MAGA friendly.

FWIW it’s worth the reason I don’t think he could be elected president is his age. He would be 99 at the end of a prospective 2nd term. That’s pushing it imo.

It’s not pushing it these days

Way too much pessimism on here! He is being humiliated before our eyes and he is going to lose the election.

To read you guys you’d think he won the last time. The guy has lost every election he has been associated with since 2016, when everything bounced his way and he beat an all-time hated Democratic candidate.

Republicans just got rocked in the midterms despite record inflation and a historically unpopular Biden. People simply can’t stand Donald Trump and anti-MAGA remains the most powerful force in American politics.

You’re about my age and from close to the same area I am, so I’m figuring you have about the same awareness I had about it before I stumbled on the thing that led me to the story. I knew the name but couldn’t really have told you much of anything other than remembering it polarized the community. If you were 3 or 4 years older, you’d remember it a lot better, as my sister did. I was 4 when the first events happened, which is why that awareness wasn’t really baked in.

There was an ABC 2-part miniseries in 1995 loosely based on the second best book about it that 1/3 of the TV sets in the country were tuned into on night 1. There have been several 1-hour documentary shows (41 minutes with commercials) that covered it. 48 Hours covered it in a 2-hour show (1.5 hours with commercials) awhile back maybe around 2017 (a promo article for a replay in 2018 led me to the story).

The scope of the story as it happened in its time demands somewhere between 6-10 hours of documentary time (no commercials). The ripple effects added with today’s political climate might be able to add another 1-2 hours of documentary time (no commercials). A dramatized production will need no fewer than 10 hours to tell it properly (ignoring the political stuff other than as a cliffhanger end of the series possibly) and may need 13 (again with no commercials). Every other telling of the story has been nothing more than a paltry Reader’s Digest type story that gets nowhere into how insane everything was and in some ways still is.

A very bad roughly 2 hour movie will likely be made this year and an 8-episode miniseries that was in HBO development a few years ago might also still be out there. That might have been killed by The Sword of Zaslav, as we’ve heard nothing else about it.

Chump change for Trump. Sucks for Habba - seems she’s on the way out of his inner circle. It’s amazing how much people still keep flocking to work for him, given the lack of loyalty he shows them once they are no longer useful to him.

Trump on

Bond money: They’re taking my cash so I can’t spend it on my campaign.

Pence nonendorsement: Couldn’t care less. We don’t need weak people.

Hiring Manafort: I don’t know anything about that. Treated badly. Patriot. We’ll see what happens.

And nearly everyone in MMA is.
