I listened to the little bit of the interview they had, and he's just a shitty used car salesman.
Always has been
Used cars are one of the few things he actually hasn’t tried (and failed) to sell, which is ironic as he’s probably be pretty good at it.
We've got fantastic cars, the best cars. They've got all the best parts; windows, air conditioning, leather... nice leather seats. You like leather? I've got a leather couch in my penthouse. White leather, very classy. JD says it chafes but I think it's classy. Made in Germany, you been to Germany? Magnificent couch makers in Germany. And they've got nice cars in Germany but nothing like these cars, we've only got the best cars on this lot. You driven a folkswagon? Wonderful family car, you can fit all your kids in this car, great for kids I'm told. You have kids? I've got my daughter Ivanka, she fits on my lap in this car, it's very roomy. Ivanka? No, she's 42. Very beautiful, everyone agrees, very beautiful, magnificent smell. She smells like the women's changing rooms at Macy's, almost as good as the smell of a new car. You ever test driven? I've never driven myself, they'd be asking all the time, drive here, drive here, drive there; can't get away. They always want me to drive but I say no, I don't drive, never felt like it.
Why did I type this
Trump, if nothing else, stimulates the imagination and inspires mockery and satire.
Love him or hate him (and make no mistake, I loathe absolutely that abysmal fuckstain) he has an extremely identifiable manner of speaking
👐
😂
He's selling shitty used cars or he's a shitty salesman selling used cars?
Why ask the liar to explain what he meant? He meant what he said, just like in 2020 when he said he would only accept the results of the election if he won.
There won’t be another presidential election if he wins. Not a fair one, at least. Vance will do what Pence wouldn’t; declare all electoral votes against Trump to be fraudulent. Make sure Congress gets to decide who wins, voting by state, with one vote per state. More Republican delegations than Democratic means Trump wins. Then the stooges on the Supreme Court rubber-stamp it. Dictator for life. With scarier people waiting in the wings for after he dies (Hawley is terrifying).
Emigrate now if you can.
just like in 2020 when he said he would only accept the results of the election if he won
That was a lie too. He wouldn't have accepted a win either. He would have claimed he won by more just like 2016.
He didn't even win the vote in 2016, just the electoral college.
He either wants to stay in power until death as dictator, or, since he only cares about himself, after the four years cycle elections won't matter anymore because the 22nd amendment
My money is on the fact that he doesn't care what happens after he leaves office. He just wants to win and avoid jail.
He's saying exactly what he means. He doesn't intend to win this election by votes and won't need votes in the future no matter what happens.
Johnson will refuse to certify the results of the election that put Democrats in the House, claiming some kind of bullshit irregularities with no proof, leaving the House controlled by the Republicans. They’ll then claim irregularities in the presidential election and force a contingent election where they have a 100% chance of electing Trump no matter what the public votes.
More people need to be made aware that this is 100% legal for them to do, and more people need to be aware that it is almost certainly what they will try. The only thing that can possibly stop it is significant awareness by the mass population of Americans and significant publicity (similar to how mass awareness of Project 2025 turned it into a poison pill).
EDIT: Oh look, they’ve already started making it super-legal in battleground states: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/aug/06/georgia-local-election-boards-allowed-withhold-vote-certification
You are 100%, 1,000%, 10,000% right.
Remember how cool it was with Kamala up there and the local band playing, and people in the audience bopping around? That’s exactly how it was in Tiananmen Square for a while, and how it felt in Nicaragua when the Sandinistas were doing literacy and immunization, and a dawn of hope was growing that good people might get to run the country for once.
It’s not safe yet. Take it real fuckin serious.
Isn't this the whole purpose of the second amendment?

Now you’re pressing him for answers? It’s a bit too late for that sweetie. You and all your media scumbag friends allowed Trump on your shows and didn’t ask him a hard question ONCE. Now you think it’s time?
Fuck you.
.....and? Hello? What the fuck was Ingram's response when he repeated the claim right in front of her? Were the attacks still ridiculous? Did this author forget what the fuck he was just writing about?
Weird answers. From an old person.
Are we pretending that Laura Ingraham is a ~~hard hitting~~ journalist now?
He shouldn’t be allowed to run after Jan 6 yet alone this
