Well, the guy doesn’t like dogs. Doesn’t really need to reach the kicking puppies stage, though obviously he loves Noem & appeared alongside her just a couple nights ago.

The Trump relationship with Epstein was about a lot more that free rides on the plane. Same with Brunel.

Right, just pals with two pedos (Brunel & Epstein). Epstein claimed he introduced Trump to (then soft-core-lesbian-pron model) Melania.

Mean implies intent. I don't think he tries to be mean. I think he is crude, crass and also just a narcissist who has gotten away with so much over his silver spoon life he just blurts out anything and knows he can get away with it. Zero self awareness however. Which is not a good quality. Some of his quips come across as mean. But he is too in the moment to realize it and moves on to the next ....squirrel! Eh, deprived his brother of financial medical aid on his hospital death bed, screwed his brother's family out of their inheritance, buried his ex-wife on his golf course by herself for a tax break, created fake charity, told his nephew he should just let his special needs nephew die (really be euthanized), not only calls people crude names like a 3rd grader out to millions of followers but also attacks anyone who merely questions him even those not trying to harm him (heck might even be trying to help him), cheated on all three wives... a lifetime of this stuff, when do we get to "ok yeah he's mean".

I take it you mean Democratic politicians. I hope we’re all democrats here. But I’m all ears on this. Grew up in a Dem city rife with corruption & incompetence.

So, it’s been a while but a while back I read a piece on the appeal or prevalence of ‘dot drawing’ with Maga/Trump/red-pillers. There’s a psychological term for it, it’s essentially the specific human function of making connections between disparate elements. It’s quite important to our functioning as humans but the internet or digital age has caused a wild extenuation of it, all the data points available online have caused people to go, essentially, well, nuts, seeing causal connections when in reality none exist in totally unrelated events or details, factual or claimed.

I think the Bills & Chiefs have been doing the same thing at the same time, which is reverting to a mid depth ball control passing game. Boring as all hell but very effective.

This is known as Doin' The Epstein.

Actually yes if there was a court trial, with experts, testimony, authenticated documents, I might find this persuasive.

I actually happen to agree he does not have dementia, IMO he's been like this since 2015. But he's gotten rid of the normie campaign advisors like Karl Rove and Kellyanne Conway. They basically send him out into these uncontrolled, unplanned environments. It can be dangerous too, like Butler. I'll add he's been likely affected by the shooting. Perfectly normal reaction to have PTSD. But he's also almost 80 & under enormous stress on top of that. He probably has something very close to a unique psychiatric profile with a toxic oleo of preexisting emotional conditions compounded by the recent events.

Bopping Don has discontinued today’s interviews. They’ve put a lid on the old codger for the day & it’s not even noon ET.

Should Wilson owners trade away?

Btw choosing to appear with Cricket’s Murderer in PA just by itself is a choice campaign decision.

2 nonsensical responses to questions in 30 minutes. Tells a gold star family he’s annoyed he has to stand up. 2 people faint. 30 minutes of music, swaying to GNR, Sinead, The Village People. A final sweaty grab at Noem at the end. Bopping Don is sunsetting.

He was clear of the league rules. If he wants to discuss it he can ask me. Have a good one.

I did say ‘IMO’. He obviously asked the question because he wasn’t sure & was interested in opinions.

Bad sportsmanship IMO.

Yeah imagine electing someone who prefers Maduro’s Venezuela to the USA.

Yeah I can see how this can be problematic.

You’re supporting the guy cutting golfing deals with KSA at his country clubs while his son in law & daughter rake in the fees from their sovereign wealth fund.

Actually I wasn’t sure, but that’s fine. Have a good evening.

See you’re demonstrating your awareness of what I’m referring to. You can make a point about law & order - & I’d even agree with you - but it’s unrelated to the transfer of democratic power.

You can tell it was important & different because Trump himself treated it as important & different.

Eh no. For instance Dems haven’t violently rioted to prevent the handover of legal power from one administration to the next.

I agree this is not practical. Reform should happen though, but it’s impossible given how the Dems & GOP have practically turned it into a mini clerical council of guardians. Just following past norms would’ve prevented this though.
