Donald Trump discussion Thread IX (threadbanned users listed in OP)

The Daily Mail Has come up with a doozy from Variety's Co-Editor-in-Chief Ramin Setoodeh, who interviewed Trump over six sessions for a forthcoming book [In Apprentice in Wonderland: How Donald Trump and Mark Burnett Took America Through the Looking Glass].

According to Setoodeh, Trump claimed that Joan Rivers voted for him. Unfortunately for Trump, Joan died in 2014, two years and two months before the election that put him in the presidency. 'I thought she might have been a Republican,' Trump said. 'I know one thing: she voted for me, according to what she said.'

According to the Daily Mail report, after Trump lost the 2020 election, the Trump election team tried to push the angle that dead voters illegally cast votes for Biden. The Setoodeh/Trump interviews were done after the 2020 elections.

I feel that I must also make clear that I think the Daily Mail is playing both parties in the US off against each other in the wording of its reporting on both candidates.

It's possible that Trump's conviction for making false entries in his business record books to try and cover up the payments made to Stormy Daniels may be having an effect on his business-front as the shares price of his Truth Social media business are reported to have suffered major losses over the past few days. Coincidentally, it comes around the time that the sale of shares in the business to the public has been given the green light by the authority in charge of licensing and control of the market.

He's also promoted the idea at one of his rallies that he will, if re-elected, authorise the issue of thousands of Green Cards to immigrants as the US job market needs specifically qualified persons to fill gaps in the US employment section. The how's etc of running such a scheme and the nationalities of proposed new Green Card holders would naturally have to be taken into account by Trump as he is strongly opposed to people of certain nationalities being allowed enter the US by the federal administration.

Something which Trump recognized and admitted to is the value to Biden electorally of the students loans forgiveness plans by his [Trump] attacking them and stating that the plans will be revoked, again, if he gets re-elected. A USSC decision meant the previous federal student loan forgiveness plan/s had to be discontinued, which Trump also approved of, having mentioned it in his statement.

I'm waiting to see if Trump does an "offended against" runner from the debate scene blaming Biden or the host/s of discourtesy, etc to his as a former elected president or if he stays for the duration of the time allotted to him in the deal he has worked out in advance and agreed-to with the host/s. It would be good if it was in the form of a written legal document, kind of like a "pre-nup" binding his performance to its small print paragraphs. or face legal losses.

I am confident that if this debate goes ahead, it will be the last.

This analogy works well for me, though it's about undecided voters:

Where to go with both parties in defensive mode over their candidates, with one candidate using his own media site to attack the suitability of the other while moaning about other failing media sites "fake news" before the debate of the year?

Given Trump's stalking behaviour at the debate between him and Clinton, and the reported restrictions imposed on him by the host channel tomorrow, I expect a similar play by Trump for his fanbase as it's live TV, him gaslighting Biden to create an excuse or incident to "excuse" his walking off the stage away from the host and Biden and a follow-up broadcast on "Truth Social" giving his version of what happened at the CNN event [though the debate will be fully recorded interference and manipulation free by dozens of TV and media sites world-wide] as he is unable to differentiate between truth, reality and his lies.

Good idea. If HE starts acting up, throwing the popcorn at the screen won't damage it.

Looks like we get another 4 years (minimum) of Trump being the most powerful man in the world.

CFTrump only lies. Got him elected once and continues to do well for him. It's not CFTrump -it's Americans. Tens of millions of them are fine with his lies. A real time fact check during the debate might've helped some, but not with Biden stumbling and mumbling his way through it.

If CFTrump wins, much like in 2016, this is on the Democrats. What I think will happen is that CFTrump will surge ahead in the polls and, if he listens to his advisors, just play it quieter going forward. It'll be his election to win.

I don't know what Biden will do. Get him out there more? How did that work last night? Being asked about the economy shouldn't have been a fumble - all CFTrump did was lie, Biden could've and should've picked that apart.

in fairness Trump couldnt even build a wall in 4 years. doesnt scream "most powerful man in the world" . im sure some mid level dork in China got whole cities or mag Lev lines built in the same time
