Here's How Donald Trump Could Become President

Donald Trump is now being sued by a group of little girls. They can't vote, so nobody cares.

A performance at a Trump rally in Pensacola, Florida, launched the group into the public eye, but the group’s manager, Jeff Popick, is now suing the Trump campaign, claiming it reneged on a verbal agreement to pay for travel and expenses.

According to Popick, a field director for the Trump campaign said they weren’t able to pay the girls, but offered them a space to sell merchandise at the rally. Figuring they could make up the difference with T-shirt and CD sales, Popick agreed, but when he arrived at the rally no such space was available. Worse, after the girls performed, they returned to their car to discover all their merchandise had been stolen.

For any lesser group, that would’ve been it. But, encouraged by the promise of future gigs, the Freedom Kids agreed to appear at a Trump rally in Iowa — only to have the Trump campaign cancel on them after they’d flown cross-country. Then the campaign made them agree not to talk to the press, which was the last straw.

Two four-star generals, Bob Sennewald, former commanding general of the U.S. Army Forces Command and David Maddox, former commander in chief of the U.S. Army-Europe, announced their endorsement of Clinton on Thursday.


I mean people like this who have been at the very highest positions of military leadership.

Which defense contractor do they currently work or lobby for? ...or are they waiting for a Clinton Presidency to reap their rewards in the military-industrial complex?

No I don't personally think that Trump has any idea what he's talking about when it comes to world geopolitics. However, Trump's suggestion about reevaluating our NATO and any other strategic alliances is not a bad one given that as a country we were founded with the idea we would not have a standing army and we would have no such alliances.

Agreements should always be subject to renegotiation how many centuries should we continue to to provide defense for South Korea? Is our relationship with Israel or Saudi Arabia so sacrosanct that we cannot even consider reevaluating any of those terms, ever?

 

[Adre]

Yes.

100%

Most of them make broad outlines of what they wish to accomplish, which we all know, in all probability, they cannot. Example, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. (Of course it was not true but maybe the young Senator believed it at the time.)

What Hillary and Bill have done is lie to our face.

I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

It was a protest about a movie.

I landed under sniper fire...

It's not worth discussing with you. You hate the Clintons. Fine.

The news from the NBC News "Commander-in-Chief Forum," for those of you who displayed the sound judgment to not watch this idiocy:


* Trump loves Vladimir Putin and thinks his poll ratings represent real popularity and not the obvious issues with running a genuine opinion poll in an authoritarian country.

* Trump promises a purge of the top ranks of the American military.

* He said (as he has before) that the proper outcome of the Iraq War was to "take the oil," which I guess means having a colony in the Middle East? (Matt Lauer could have pressed him on that point, and may have done so were he not a vapid fool.)

* He said that his intelligence briefers used body language to signal to him that they think Obama is an idiot (the proper response to any question about the intelligence briefings is obviously"no comment").

* He called the VA "corrupt."

* He was asked about an old tweet essentially blaming the victims for sexual assault in the military, and he didn't deny that he had said it.

* The fact that the Mexican foreign minister was forced to resign this week is proof that Trump's visit was a yooge success, according to Trump.

* As you probably already knew would happen, he lied yet again about having supported the war; and as you probably already knew would happen, Lauer let him get away with it.

* Trump said Hilary has a "happy trigger," which I think is a plot summary in the Loving Wives section.

* He repeatedly said the military in 2016 is incredibly weak and a disaster, in front of a military audience.



Yeah, it sucked out loud.

 

[Adre]

Trump is going to find other Generals? Where? Russia?

This thread needs to be kept alive far after the election is over.

 

[pointless]

well, to be fair, the va is absolute shit.

I can't stand Trump but, somewhat related to this, I'd like to offer him a sincere thanks for screwing over the "USA Freedom Kids" so that we'll never hear from them again.

...

Russia is not an "authoritarian country."

If you have any Russian friends ask them if Russia is a free country or not.

I rest my case. Stop being ignorant.

...

He opposed the Iraq War repeatedly.

One vacillating off the cuff comment on Howard Stern only "proves" otherwise to a complete moron.

Or someone who's never listened the Stern show before.

 

[sigh]

That's the funny thing.

Hillary called Gold-Star "confused" (i.e. liars, but we've been instructed now by Adre that lying is normative in America for everyone), but that's NOT A BIG DEAL???

They somehow missed her remarks that Benghazi was a terrorist attack?

Equating "confused" with "liars" is a bit too big of a leap for me to follow. Sorry. But thanks for the input. I really was looking for some insight as to why more vets aren't angry at Trump. His tweet war with the soldier's family aside, how about his comments regarding prisoners of war? And I'm not talking about John McCain, but POWs in general. One of the cousins I mentioned displays both an American flag and a black, Vietnam-era POW flag at his house every day (he had a good friend who was MIA and never came home) and yet he still says he likes Trump (not just dislikes Hillary). I haven't pressed him on it, but I do wonder. Maybe it's just a case of accepting some bad because you find the package as a whole appealing? We all do that, I guess.

Huh. Maybe I just answered the question for myself.

I'm not a fan of Trump...

Anyone who doesn't like Trump is a piece of trash.

Yes. But for the same reasons as you, not because he dislikes Drumpf.

Commentary excoriates lingering "conservatives" still refusing to get on the Trump Train...

What is "Drumpf"?

Dude.

That's your homeboy's original family name. Anglicized from his German grandfather Friedrich Drumpf after his moving to America back in the day.

How can you be all white-people-this, white-people-that, white-people-are-being-devalued-in-media-and-white-culture-is-being-exterminated-in-America-every-day on here PLUS stroke the Trump cock for fresh nut milk to sufficiently dilute your black coffee beige every sunrise and not know that about your boy?

Oh, I don't hate them.

Just to set the record straight, I don't trust them because they lie, cheat and steal.

That's what Whitewater was all about and other people were willing to go to jail so they wouldn't (they were probably as afraid of them and their retaliation as Comey). They ripped off the little people. Like the cattle futures scam, they always prey on the weak and helpless. In Whitewater, the scam was like the used car dealers who pop up, stay in business a year, close up shop and reopen under another name, but this was more long term. They sold properties to select persons whom they deemed could not afford the properties with a clause in the contract, if you miss one payment, we foreclose and then they looked for the next victim/sucker.

That's how they think of most of us and that's why they treat us with such disdain and that's why they openly lie to us, defraud us and prey upon us. Bill's specialty is vulnerable women...

But no worse than Trump.

Trump isn't a war criminal, yet. The Clintons are serial war criminals and mass murderers.

I think that makes them worse.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

But no worse than Trump.

Except that the Clinton's use the force of government to fleece the little people...

Trump only had the power of getting people to agree to a contract, but he could not threaten them with the State Police or the IRS.

That makes Clinton far worse than Trump.

He's a businessman. The Clintons entered into public service and then used their positions to enrich themselves and were clearly and quite transparent in their willingness to be bribed. Bill, took an honorary no-show job as a "Chancellor" that paid him millions taken from the little people, the students. Then Bill got the government to issue multi-million dollar grants to the corporation that hired him and that money came from the little people too, the taxpayers...

As another poster pointed out, you have to take your blinders off, that's the same thing Trump just got fined for doing.
