Donald Trump talks make up, his declining mind and more

BULLY BOY PRESS & CEDRIC'S BIG MIX & THOMAS FRIEDMAN IS A GREAT MAN & ANN'S MEGA DUB  -- THE KOOL AID TABLE 


DONALD TRUMP APPEARS TO HAVE OFFICIALLY LOST IT AND GONE MAD.  PRIOR TO APPEARING IN THE MANHATTAN COURT TODAY BEFORE JUDGE ARTHUR ENGORON, DER DONALD DISMISSED ENGORON AS A "ROGUE JUDGE." IT'S NOT GOOD TO INSULT THE JUDGE PUBLICLY ON THE DAY OF YOUR HEARING -- ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY -- MEANING THE JUDGE HE IS INSULTING IS THE ONE WHO WILL DETERMINE HIS GUILT.




HOWEVER, WHAT HAS EVEN MORE PEOPLE QUESTIONING HIS SANITY WAS DER DONALD'S DECLARATION OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL LETITIA JAMES, "WE HAVE A RACIST ATTORNEY GENERAL WHO IS A HORROR SHOW! SHE RAN ON THE BASIS OF SHE WAS GOING TO GET TRUMP BEFORE SHE EVEN KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT ME!"


WHEN THESE REPORTERS APPROACHED ALINA HABBA, DER DONALD'S ATTORNEY, REQUESTING WHETHER OR NOT WE COULD SPEAK TO HER CLIENT, SHE RESPONDED NOT LOOKING UP FROM HER CELL PHONE AS SHE PLAYED 'FREE FIRE,' "SURE, GO AHEAD, DO WHAT YOU WANT, I GET PAID WHETHER WE WIN OR LOSE."


Q: SO, DER DONALD, YOU SAID THE A.G. WAS "A HORROR SHOW" WHO "RAN ON THE BASIS OF SHE WAS GOING TO GET TRUMP" -- YOU ARE TRUMP.  DO YOU LIKE REFERRING TO YOURSELF IN THE THIRD PERSON?

DER DONALD: IN THE THIRD, IN THE FOURTH, IN THE FIFTH, IN THE SIXTH!  I AM HUGE.  REALLY BIG.  NO ONE IS AS BIG AS ME.


Q: WELL WE DON'T REALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT.  WE'RE WORRIED THAT YOU'VE LOST IT AND MAY NEED TO BE INSTITUTIONALIZED.

DER DONALD: NEVER!  WHO SAID THAT!  MALANIA?  SHE GOT PAID LAST WEEK TO SHUT UP.

Q: WELL YOU MADE A STATEMENT VERY UNLIKE YOURSELF.  YOU SAID THIS A.G. DIDN'T KNOW "ANYTHING ABOUT ME!"

DER DONALD: OH, THAT WAS A MISTAKE.  I MUST HAVE HAD A FEVER TO SAY SOMETHING SO DELUSIONAL. 

Q: IT SEEMED UNCHARACTERISTIC OF YOU.

DER DONALD: I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY THAT.  OF COURSE SHE KNEW OF ME!  EVERYONE DOES!  I AM HUGE!  EVERYONE KNOWS WHO I AM!  THEY'VE KNOWN WHO I AM FOR YEARS, DECADES!  I AM THE MOST FAMOUS PERSON ON THE EARTH!  AND THE MOST HANDSOME!

Q: ARE YOU OBSESSED WITH YOUR LOOKS?  MOST 77 YEAR OLD MEN DO NOT WEAR MAKE UP, AFTER ALL.

DER DONALD:  MOST MEN -- OF ANY AGE -- ARE NOT AS PHYSICALLY PERFECT OR GOOD LOOKING AS TRUMP.  MAKE UP ENHANCES ALL THAT I ALREADY HAVE.  

Q: AND YOU APPLY IT YOURSELF, WE ARE TOLD.


DER DONALD: THAT IS CORRECT.  IF YOU'RE A REAL STAR, THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.  JUST LIKE JOAN CRAWFORD AND BETTE DAVIS BEFORE ME, I ONLY LET THE MAKEUP MEN WORK ON MY EYE LASHES, I HANDLE THE REST.


FROM THE TCI WIRE:


From one empty politician (Barbara Lee) to another (Ron DeSantis), Florida's governor is not being greeted warmly.  Manasa Gogineni (THE CALIFORNIAN) reports:

GOP candidate and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis made a highly controversial trip to Salinas today, which was preceded by community protests on Sunday and Wednesday, a Salinas City Council resolution denouncing his visit, and widespread disapproval from county supervisors, organizations and Salinas residents across social media.

Executives of big agriculture companies from Taylor Farms to Mission Produce hosted a private fundraising brunch for DeSantis this morning ahead of his bid for the White House, with tickets selling at $3,300 a seat.

DeSantis has gained notoriety for supporting policies that harm farmworkers and make it more difficult for undocumented immigrants to gain employment.

Salinas has a large population of immigrant and migrant farm workers, which agriculture companies have historically failed to protect from voter intimidation, COVID-19, wildfires and harmful pesticides (which are used in fields near local schools despite being linked to leukemia in children).


Ben Blanchet (HUFFINGTON POST) notes the response to Ronald wasn't that much warmer on FOX NEWS:

Fox News host Maria Bartiromo kept it frank with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over former President Donald Trump’s big lead against him in national polls. (You can check out the interview in the clip below)

The Florida governor has trailed Trump the entire year in an average of national polls and, as of Sunday, is behind the GOP frontrunner by over 40 percentage points, according to polling aggregator FiveThirtyEight.

“Let’s face it, governor, Donald Trump is ahead of you by a significant margin,” Bartiromo told DeSantis during his appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures.”

“I think the last poll was 52 percent, above, right now, for Trump. How are you going to cut into Trump’s lead? What truly is your path to victory?”


He has none.  Turns out, when you attack women, African-Americans, immigrants, teachers, professors and the LGBTQ+ community, you are left with very few that can support you.  Oops, almost forgot his war on DISNEY.  Molly Sprayregen (LGBTQ NATION) explains:

The Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis-appointed board overseeing Disney World’s tax district has officially approved a $4.5 million budget for the year to fund the anti-LGBTQ+ governor’s legal battle with the entertainment company.

The board approved an overall $194.5 million budget for the upcoming fiscal year, setting aside an anticipated $4.5 million in legal fees for DeSantis to defend himself against Disney. According to the Washington Post, taxpayers have already footed the $1.9 million that has been spent on lawyers for the case this year. 


Yeah, that's not good business.  Mike Schneider (AP) reports on Ronald's war on DISNEY:

The Florida governor asked that the company’s First Amendment lawsuit against him be tossed from federal court, and Disney demanded emails, texts and other communications from the governor’s office in a separate state court lawsuit originally brought by DeSantis appointees of Walt Disney World’s governing district.

The legal filings marked an escalation in the battle between the entertainment giant and DeSantis, a candidate for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination. The confrontation started last year when Disney publicly opposed a state law banning classroom lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity in early grades, and DeSantis retaliated by taking over the governing district that provides municipal services for the 25,000-acre (10,117-hectare) Disney World theme park resort in Florida.

[. . .]

Disney also sent a notice to DeSantis’ office demanding internal communications, including text messages and emails, and documents regarding the district’s comprehensive plan, the development agreements and the legislation that shifted control of the district to DeSantis. The notice said a subpoena would be issued requiring the governor’s office to turn over the materials to Disney’s attorneys by Oct. 27. 


Ronald's like a cock roach, he skirts off when caught in the light of day.   As Tori Otten (THE NEW REPUBLIC) notes, Ronald's wasting millions of tax dollars on lawsuits:


 In reality, DeSantis has spent more than $17 million defending his terrible laws in court since he took office. As a result, the state budget for 2023 includes a $15.8 million allotment just to defend his policies.

That allotment includes $6 million for the governor’s office, compared to just $1.6 million last year. The State University System Board of Governors received an extra $2 million to defend DeSantis’s “Stop Woke” Act, and the attorney general’s office got an additional $5 million to defend the state’s backward Covid-19 vaccination policies.

The extra money for legal costs means that DeSantis is able to hire outside (and much more expensive) lawyers to defend his policies. So far, his administration has spent the most defending laws restricting voting rights, transgender health care, and academic freedom. But despite his best efforts, and his hefty coffers, most of those laws were still overturned.
