So I am going to go out on a limb and suggest that Donald Trump might be a teensy wensy bit irritated by CNN reporting on his screw ups.






There are actually a number of stories over at CNN that could have set Trump off on his Twitter rampage, but my money's on this one entitled "Donald Trump's bad 72 hours."

You know when this campaign season is over Time Magazine might just consider making Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams, Biz Stone, and Noah Glass, the inventors of Twitter, their Time Magazine Persons of the Year. Because I think Twitter is going to be the thing that ultimately destroys Donald J. Trump and his racist, xenophobic campaign.

And it appears that it has already started to do exactly that.

    Donald Trump is unhinged. Seriously, I think he is mentally unstable, and the 'powers that run the Repub party' (Fox News) should absolutely disown his candidacy and yank him off the ticket. Seriously. This man is a dangerous, unstable sick POS.

      He's fired two more staffers. I'm sure as fallout for the RNC not being as successful as he wanted. He had to blame someone for ChaChi and The Duck Disaster.

      http://www.politico.com/story/2016/08/trump-aide-brookover-fired-226541

      Now he's claiming the election will be rigged for Hillary. After the kerfuffle over the debates (which he'll bail on) is it any surprise he is setting up his YUUUGE loss to Hillary as "the fix is in"? It's the only way he can save face. If he doesn't quit even before the elections. Then we'll be stuck with Pence and...who will be his VP? Paul Ryan?

    Trump makes Palin look like she had elephant Hyde for skin. This frightening and mentally deranged sociopath just can't put down his phone and stfu. His twantrums are indeed doing him in. for the first time in a long time I'm feeling that we won't have to face a facist racist in the Whie House. not going to be complacent tho. trump has an uncanny knack for shaking off bad press.

    CNN always has Trump surrogates seated there, and usually there are two people there for him, sometimes three. Jeffrey Lord live son set. The two blonds are always taking turns there and Katrina the witch is a regular. Trump complains about CNN, but they are always making sure that someone's there to represent Trump. Trump pry hates CNN because Jake Tapper presses him in interviews and keeps showing clips of things Trump has told him over the years that don't match up with what he's saying now. Unlike networks with hosts who make it clear that they have shows that reflect their own personalities and opinion, CNN does much of its reporting in a matter-of-fact way that makes Trump look even more foolish.

He is correct in saying that he could go out on the street and shoot someone and they would cheer him on. I would say that the people I know would cheer him on if he performed an abortion on his wife on the set of the Republican National Convention. And these are all anti abortion wackos.

    Donald Trump Continues To Implode Before Our Eyes As He Calls Hillary Clinton ‘The Devil’

    Referring to Bernie Sanders throwing his full support behind the Democratic nominee, Trump said the Vermont senator made “a deal with the devil.”

    “She’s the devil,” the spray-tanned buffoon added, much to the delight of the torch-wielding mob in attendance.

    Though it’s become difficult to be shocked by anything Trump says at this point, his harsh and disgusting attack on Clinton was still surprising.

    This tweet from NBC News reporter Ali Vitali sums is up quite well:

    Sure, they forced him to respond like a repugnant jackass by using their special Muslim mind powers transmitted through the television screen. How did poor little Donnie stand a chance against their evil machinations???

    Kinda makes you wonder how he plans to stand up against North Korea's Kim Jong-un if he is so easily manipulated by a pair of grieving parents he's never even met.

    Oh yeah, according to her, Trump 'sacrificed' his two marriages in order to sit in his office and invest money to create jobs. Not that he actually PAID people for those jobs... And, of course, it had NOTHING to do with the fact that he was screwing around on those former wives.

      They think that was the best of America because white, segregationist, racist evengelical Christianity was dominant, and everyone else knew their place.

      DrumpF's fans also don't care that he's alleged to have raped a 13 year old girl at Jeffrey Epstein's house in 1994.

That vastly under performs the second worst historical showing in this poll previously, which was a net positive of two percent for Mitt Romney in 2012. And thirteen percent of those saying they are less likely to vote for Trump are Republicans."

    The bigger the humiliation, the more bluster and stink he will raise over it. Compounding the 'toddler throwing tantrums' vision.

    Then people will realize just how large a sociopathic/psychopathic bullet they dodged.

      Now he's gone too far. Even Republicans are going to take exception with that. I mean the sane ones. They are already starting to get behind Clinton. They're not leaving their party, they just recognize that for this election only, they cannot get behind the crazy-ass dipshit their party just nominated. The more Trump doubles down, the more will leave.

      I think Khan was his Achilles heel. It's the McCarthy moment. "Have you no decency, sir?"

      Yeah, I think Trump just shot himself in the foot. As the days pass, the gangrene will get worse until he putrifies right before election day.

    Forbe$:" Those subsidiaries (referred to in the complaint as the “Four Subs”) were Trump SoHo, Waterpointe, Trump Phoenix, and Trump Merrimack"

Lauria is said to be responsible for brokering a $50 million investment to infuse cash into Trump SoHo and other subs by FL. According to the complaint, Arif and Satter also pushed, saying that the “Russians behind FL were in favor with Putin” so they had to deal with FL.the complaint alleges that Bayrock, together with its advisors, formed a sham domestic tax partnership to act as a conduit between Bayrock and FL. This “domestic holding partnership” was, according to the complaint, an easy way to launder money and evade taxation.the complaint alleges that Bayrock, together with its advisors, formed a sham domestic tax partnership to act as a conduit between Bayrock and FL. This “domestic holding partnership” was, according to the complaint, an easy way to launder money and evade taxation.the transaction (and related transactions) would have to be blessed by the interested parties. That’s where Trump comes in.>" Trump and others with a financial interest, including Ivanka and Donald Jr., had to agree to the deal: not everyone was on board with the transaction initially. Trump was, according to Oberlander, told that the deal wouldn’t happen without his consent. Oberlander says that Trump was given access to the documents and advised about the details and was then asked to bless the transaction. He did. The result, says Oberlander, is that Trump “benefited indirectly” from the transaction since the scheme allowed Bayrock to keep millions in cash rather than pay taxes.

      The question is, will they do that?

      If they encourage Republicans to vote for Hillary rather than just stay home, that also supports their down ticket candidates.

    Trump tests his limits

    The GOP nominee has broken nearly every conventional boundary, but he has never gone this far before.

    ...Trump’s inability to quietly absorb last week’s stinging criticism from the parents of Humayun Khan — a Muslim born to Pakistani immigrants who was killed 12 years ago while serving as an Army captain in Iraq — and Trump's persistence in punching back are in keeping with the approach that has propelled him to the Republican presidential nomination. But this protracted battle, now entering a fourth day, is testing the limits of his bullying, no-apologies political approach in a way no other self-inflicted wound or crisis has.

    “There’s just no sense of decency from this man,” said Rick Tyler, a GOP operative who worked for Ted Cruz’s campaign. “I understand they challenged him, but there’s some things you just can’t win and you shouldn’t engage in. [Trump] wanted to change the subject to radical Islamic terrorism — which is what this guy died fighting. He just can’t win the argument and needs to shut up about it, but his personality won’t allow him to do that. He just can’t be quiet, especially when he gets attacked."

    Donald Trump’s Draft Deferments: Four for College, One for Bad Feet

    ...The story of Mr. Trump’s draft record has been reviewed by other publications, starting in 2011, when The Smoking Gun published his Selective Service documents. But a Times examination of his history, including interviews with Mr. Trump and experts on the era, revealed new details.

    For many years, Mr. Trump, 70, has also asserted that it was “ultimately” the luck of a high draft lottery number — rather than the medical deferment — that kept him out of the war.

    But his Selective Service records, obtained from the National Archives, suggest otherwise. Mr. Trump had been medically exempted for more than a year when the draft lottery began in December 1969, well before he received what he has described as his “phenomenal” draft number.

    Because of his medical exemption, his lottery number would have been irrelevant, said Richard Flahavan, a spokesman for the Selective Service System, who has worked for the agency for three decades.
