Today in Trump

[cow451]

Not long after securing the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police, Trump finds the Tulsa police shooting of an unarmed black man 'troubling'.

The police are 100% behind Mr. Trump. They love him and trust him with their very lives because he is really, really going to get tough on crime. Donald J. Trump has a long, wonderful relationship with the cops. He has bought more doughnuts than anyone ever did for police officers.

African Americans have never been more .... horribly tragic than they are today. Elvis sang a song about the ghetto back when America was truly GREAT!....not now... no not with all the killings and unemployment and crime and getting shot down by police women.... Remember Angie Dickenson, the original Police Woman? .... she was really arresting, let me tell you.... She handcuffed JFK, I hear......before Ted Cruz's father did that terrible thing with Lee Harvey Oswald. I'm just saying what was in the National Enquirer.

You won't hear about that in the liberal lying media, like that guy at ABC or that racist one they picked to "mod-er-ate" the debate. It's rigged, you know, the whole system and the people are getting really angry.... just like those African Americans like the ministers in the churches and great African businessmen like Don King.

What was that police woman thinking? I dunno, it was terrible, awful, just horrible...... women should not be shooting at African Americans, it's just the worst thing..... and Food Stamps! O-BAM-a Care!...... And Crooked Hillary would shoot every cop in ... what state is this?....Sheriff Joe ... now that guy is a real cop, and Steve Seagull.... and Chuck Norris! Chuck Norris would not have to shoot an Africa American down in cold blood.... no, Sheriff Joe would would not stand for Mexicans taking African American jobs. They are going to pay for that wall, am I right?

Trump offers some more ideas of potential Supreme Court picks. Among them, Senator Lee of Utah, who still declined to endorse Trump.

Ted Cruz is now endorsing Trump

Ted Cruz is now endorsing Trump

But of course -- sooner or later the Establishment gets all its little piggies in line...

Today, to the surprise of absolutely nobody, Trump's words come back to bite him... again.

WSJ: No Fortune 100 CEOs Back Republican Donald Trump
Some would say that the best (most well-compensated) business leaders in this country have no confidence in Donald's ability to lead the country; others will claim that Clinton is beholden to Wall Street. There is probably truth to both views.

"Donald Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway on Monday morning insisted that Trump did not lie when he said last week that NBC's Lester Holt is a Democrat because the Republican nominee did not know that Holt is actually registered as a Republican."

It's not a lie if you don't know what you're talking about, and say something that seems useful to you.

That's an interesting defense. Better an idiot than a liar?

I don't know. Was it in the Enquirer?

Well, if you don't know something, you are ignorant of it, so he's certainly an ignoramus. He may also be an idiot. And a liar.

Apparently it's considered a debate victory because Trump didn't meltdown until after it was over...

http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/28/politics/donald-trump-debate-reaction/

Washington (CNN)Donald Trump is angry that his aides and advisers have conceded to reporters -- largely without attribution -- that the Republican nominee struggled in his first presidential debate.

In a conference call with surrogates Wednesday afternoon, Trump aides made clear the Republican nominee is upset that his allies publicly acknowledged they pushed him to change his preparation and tactics before his next bout with Hillary Clinton. And he wants them to stop it immediately.

Trump hates hearing bad news about himself -- especially when it's true.

Although Trump is yuge with the Hispanics, he has run no ads in Spanish.

Trump's visit to Mexico may have involved an illegal in-kind contribution from the state of Mexico.

“The trip to Mexico was clearly a campaign event,” said GOP election lawyer Charles Spies, “and it is impermissible for a foreign government to make contributions to a federal campaign, so the campaign would need to reimburse the Mexican government for the helicopter in able to avoid an impermissible in-kind contribution.”

Also today, Trump's violation of the Cuba embargo is coming out...

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news...ump-cuba-embargo-violation-clinton-allegation

The Clinton campaign on Thursday attacked Donald Trump over reports of an historic violation of the Cuba embargo, hours after Newsweek alleged that the Republican nominee spent at least $68,000 in the island dictatorship in 1998, while investigating potential business opportunities.

Citing “interviews with former Trump executives, internal company records and court filings”, Newsweek reported that in 1998 a company controlled by Trump “secretly conducted business in communist Cuba during Fidel Castro’s presidency despite strict American trade bans that made such undertakings illegal”.

Yep, after Trump declares in a public speech that businesses should not do business with Cuba, because the money will go to a murder and tyrant [Castro], it looks like he was secretly trying to do business with Cuba and Castro. Every week the guy achieves a new low, when will it stop?

In the immortal words of Marvin Gaye, specially interpreted for The Donald:

Ain't no bar that's low enough,
ain't no lie that's big enough,
ain't no scumbag bad enough,
to stop Trump from using them babe.

Yep, after Trump declares in a public speech that businesses should not do business with Cuba...

I can't wait to see how the "Hillary is a Communist" crowd will react.

But I'll probably have to wait, because none of them are going to say anything.

Donald Trump Appeared In A 2000 Playboy Softcore Porn

Trump breaks a bottle of champagne on a Playboy-branded limo while several of the Playmates are visiting New York City. “Beauty is beauty, and let’s see what happens with New York,” Trump says.

I'm guessing the mods might not like a direct link, but all of youse have access to the internet.

'Donald Trump answers the question: What is 2+2?
"I have to say a lot of people have been asking this question. No, really. A lot of people come up to me and they ask me. They say, "What's 2+2"? And I tell them look, we know what 2+2 is. We've had almost eight years of the worst kind of math you can imagine. What a disaster! Oh my god, I can't believe it. Addition and subtraction of the 1s the 2s and the 3s. Its terrible. Its just terrible. Look, if you want to know what 2+2 is, do you want to know what 2+2 is? I'll tell you.
First of all the number 2, by the way I love the number 2. It's probably my favorite number, no it is my favorite number. You know what, it's probably more like the number two but with a lot of zeros behind it. A lot. If I'm being honest, I mean, if I'm being honest. I like a lot of zeros. Except for Marco Rubio, now he's a zero that I don't like. Though, I probably shouldn't say that. He's a nice guy but he's like, "10101000101", on and on, like that. He's like a computer! You know what I mean? He's like a computer. I don't know. I mean, you know.
So, we have all these numbers and we can add them and subtract them and add them. TIMES them even. Did you know that? We can times them OR divide them, they don't tell you that, and I'll tell you, no one is better at the order of operations than me. You wouldn't believe it. That I can tell you. So, we're gonna be the best on 2+2, believe me. OK?"'
