Umm, yeah. I saw a pic of cologne bottle and of course it's gold with a figure of Trump.

Here is cologne. It's gold of course with a Trump figurine.

Get yer Trump Sneakers(TM)!

I can't wait until he starts actually selling golden bulls. You know, for the bull market he's going to bring. That will rain gold down upon his followers.

Yes, he went to Sneaker Con to hawk his shitty golden shoes. I'm no sneaker enthusiast or anything, but those look like fucking ass.

I bet that the shitty gold coating on those things start crinkling and peeling after less than a month of use. And given Trump's aversion to actual quality, the soles will probably be buttery smooth by that point too.

Use? These are collectors items! Just like Trump NFTs! And probably much like Trump NFT's will instantly depreciate to near valueless moments after purchase.

Even if they are intended for display, I get the sneaking suspicion that the sort who will buy these won't be able to resist putting Trump's name on another part of their body to "make the libs mad" or whatever.

-- Nikki Haley, on CNN just to drive the point home Let the record show: she did warn them. When Trump takes over, drains it dry, and then stops being a candidate (there are multiple options there) I expect to point at laugh at everyone who says "why didn't we see this coming?"

Hmf let him drain it. There's not much there to drain. One of the reasons for the RNC is to help get their people elected. Hmm..

[Breccia]

Could they have been meaner to Trump and pushed back harder? Probably, but then your pushing back against your own core voter block

Yes, they could have/should have stomped on Trump the second it seemed he was gaining ground. They knew he was a danger, someone who could steal their voters, and they were right. They ignored him and attacked each other until it was too late. This is where @Edge- brings up Ted Cruz, again, because it's always relevant and always funny.

Or, they could have bribed him to go away.

Or, they could have united around having someone with actual qualifications. Effectively the same thing as opposing him, except far more positive.

"Do you support Trump?"
"I support DeSantis. He has governing experience and stands for our values."
"Yes, but do you support Trump?"
"DeSantis has my vote. He will do everything Trump wants to do anyway."

Oh, funny story, they could have impeached him for Jan 6. The 2020 election was over. None of them would have lost seats for at least 2 years. Quite frankly, ejecting him from the WH could have bolstered their ranks. Without cultists running the show, they might have kept the House and Senate.

Or, they could have impeached him the first time. By then, he was ejecting olde schoole Republicans and replacing them with acting Trumpers.

Or, they could have 25th'd him.

Or, they could have sunk him in the media. Working with FOX News -- a deal that, in retrospect, they'd wish they'd been given and taken -- they could have exposed his many, many issues in front of Republican viewers. Hell, they could have made shit up. Epstein was still alive and his list was still in the wind at the time. Making stuff up would have worked flawlessly -- Trump attracted people willing to believe almost anything.

Or, not recommending this, they could have killed him. Waiting till COVID nearly did that for them would not have salvaged 2020, too close, but it could have salvaged later. Or, one good false flag and they have a martyr for decades.

The time to move on Trump was before he had all their voters putting his name first, a red R second. Then we wouldn't be havin the discussion about "oh they would lose all the Trump voters" because such would not exist. They chose not to do that. Come Sept 2015, if every single Rep/Sen/Gov said "no, this man is a failed businessman and reknown liar, and everyone knows that" they could have choked his candidacy out. Instead they didn't just allow, they invited, his power to grow and grow and grow, to the point where people are putting their hands in their pockets, looking at their shoes, and saying "well gosh, there's nothing I can do now".

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now. The worst time to plant a tree is never.

Yes, it's a harder task now. It will cost them more now, than it would have before. We won't disagree on that. But you can only fail so many Perception checks in a row before it's your fault for putting a blind person on point. And the blind are leading the blind in the RNC.

Not much right now, no, but putting him in charge to siphon off all their remaining donations would, yes, be exactly what they deserve.

Crybaby cowardly trolls on alt accounts desperate to post in defense of the indefensible. How ordinary. Of course, even if he were living "rent-free" in our heads that would still be superior to you lot giving a supposed "billionaire" your money to "own the libs".

[Breccia]

Habba, desperate to save her job, goes on Hannity because she can't go to Trump's office I'm guessing, and pleading "we will fight until the truth comes out".

*ding*

"What truth didn't come out? And why didn't it? Doesn't she know she can introduce evidence?"

Based on her work in court, I'm not sure. She seems to be spouting random fridge poetry words about "corruption" and "rigged" but I haven't yet seen anything close to evidence of that. Unless, of course, you go with "anyone who sees that Trump objectively committed crimes is biased" which isn't how it works.

I mean, they can't even make arguments to the contrary of anything and instead just attack the people posting here. Just report for trolling and move on.

More like “4,000 pages detailing Trump’s despicable speech, policy, political actions and conduct.”

Some people aren’t as willing to hand wave away and ignore said despicable conduct, criminal and otherwise, of someone who was and who seeks once more to be leader of the free world as you seem to be.

[Breccia]

My friend just linked me to a gofundme that some random woman started to raise money for the settlement

It's not that random.

The online fundraiser was started by Elena Cardone, the wife of investor Grant Cardone, an entrepreneur and investor.

“I stand unwaveringly with President Donald Trump in the face of what I see as unprecedented and unfair treatment by certain judicial elements in New York,” Elena Cardone wrote on the GoFundMe page.

She continued, “The recent legal battles he faces are not just an attack on him, but an attack on the very ideals of fairness and due process that every American deserves.”

He can't be that good of an investor, if he thinks giving money to Trump is a good idea.

It's about $200,000 now.

Other than his recent Twitter rampages about how banks get a value of your house themselves and therefore nothing Trump did is fraud, Grant Cardone is mostly known for publishing several books about how to 10x your money. For a, hmm, less blatantly dishonest value of him as a person, this Forbes article talks about how racist he is or you could enrol in his version of Trump University.

One of his zealots won the first pair in a bid/auction. He paid $9000 to win. I really hope the 2nd place bid was like $250.

At least when he appeared to announce the stupid things he was boo'd, but of course he acted like they were Boo-urns, and went on to claim how the shoe isn't "political." I agree with that much, it's not political, it's just another grift as he sells $30 shoes for $400. They're just Air Treasons.

My first question is if the tiny print says the money actually goes to Trump, its say 70-30 on the money all going to the person that started the fundraiser. Which would be very on brand.

At this stage of Capitalism, it's what now passes for entrepreneurism.

I am not going to bother to read the tiny print and just assume, if anything, 70-30 is too low.

Also:

How about the one two weeks ago? A woman, I'm saying, 'Who the hell is she? Who is the woman?' It's so unfair what's happening in our country. Our court system is a mess. What's happening in our country, they have to straighten it out.

-- Trump, in a Michigan rally

Guys, I think Trump has dementia. He can't remember who Carroll is. He's on the record talking about her dozens of times, and shared dozens of hours in a courtroom with her. Now, he's saying he doesn't know who she is.

The only answer is dementia.

It's been going on for a while, too. He'll be on record as talking to people, standing with them, smiling with them, working with them, referring to them, and then some big event will happen and it's like he forgot about them completely! This has been happening for years, it's so concerning! Why aren't people talking about his obvious forgetfulness? We can't afford to have a President that's been losing his marbles for as long as he has, and it's clearly getting worse. So sad.

It is a common tactic with people who do commit crimes. They have sudden forgetfulness. It has very little to do with dementia and just wanting not to deal with any consequences for their actions.

A common phrase with people who do commit crimes is to never admit fault. Never admit you saw anything or not anyone involved. Make it as hard as possible to find you guilty of said crime or action and even then, still never admit fault.
