If Trump wants to become president he has been hilariously wrong with his campaign so far. Yelling crap like he does might make you the #1 Republican candidate but it won't make you US president. And he's not a dumb guy. I genuinely fail to understand his rationale behind his campaign.

I maintain it was a dare from Billary and he went rogue after he shockingly gained traction and started to believe he could be president.
 
With each passing day, and revelation after revelation, I believe this less and less. He's a trust fund kid who at every turn has lost the money his father gave him. His kids seem to have caught a break in that he will likely die before squandering it all.

The stories that have come out this week about his father having to constantly secure him enormous lines of credit (which he again squandered) support this strongly.
 
Mike Ashley is a billionaire yet hired Steve McClaren as manager..stupid billionaires exist



Oh I agree, but personally I don't think the money has anything to do with it. So separate the money from the situation. It's well documented how much Trump inherited and how many times his father bailed him out. So you look at all the other evidence on hand, and to be fair there is certainly plenty of it, but nothing to suggest he is intelligent.

The biggest tell is how ignorant he is to almost anything, he always makes out he knows the most when the evidence is often completely contrary. He has very little idea of world politics and of the world itself despite his extensive travels. This has been proven on the many different occasions he has said something ridiculous about the rest of the world, or said something stupid like Scotland voting for brexit when he was stood in Scotland and they voted unanimously to stay in the EU. His opinion and complete lack of knowledge about what NATO does and how it operates is another. He thinks climate change is a hoax and refuses to listen to scientific evidence which again shows his ignorance and arrogance and unwillingness to ever think he might not know something. All that (and much more) adds up to a fundamental lack of knowledge about things you would expect someone in his position, or of supposed intelligence to know.

His vocabulary is awful, often repeating himself and inventing new words all the time. Listening to him speak is like listening to a child, he also appears to have the temperament of one too. He can never quote anything or anyone and yet uses completely made up examples all the time. He has admitted he doesn't read and hasn't read a book since leaving school. He often takes credit for things that have nothing, or very little to do with him. Most recently his tax return form that his lawyers and accountants said THEY were responsible for and Trump seemed disinterested but his wife Ivana was constantly asking questions about the business and how they saved money from the tax bill. His failed businesses and bankruptcies like owning 3 casino's all in view of each other, or investing heavily in the housing market months before the biggest slump in house prices known to man, and a slump that was predicted by nearly every single expert in the field. The way he has often said he doesn't listen to anyone else and only consults himself also just shows arrogance and serious stupidity because you can never know everything and anyone serious about anything will want to get and hear as much evidence and information about something as possible.

That's all just scratching the surface, and as I said all the evidence is there and I have yet to see one single piece of evidence that suggests to me that Trump is anything more than a rich kid who inherited well and makes money grifting off the poor or scamming working folks by refusing to pay them. Either that or lots of people have a seriously lower bar than I do when it comes to judging someone's intelligence.
 
GOP Ex-Lawmakers Sign Letter Denouncing Donald Trump
http://time.com/4522595/gop-lawmakers-open-letter-donald-trump/

Thirty Republican former members of Congress have signed an open letter rejecting the party’s nominee, writing, “We may differ on how we will cast our ballots in November but none of us will vote for Donald Trump.”

“In nominating Donald Trump, the Republican Party has asked the people of the United States to entrust their future to a man who insults women, mocks the handicapped, urges that dissent be met with violence, seeks to impose religious tests for entry into the United States, and applies a de facto ethnicity test to judges,” the letter continues. “He offends our allies and praises dictators. His public statements are peppered with lies. He belittles our heroes and insults the parents of men who have died serving our country. Every day brings a fresh revelation that highlights the unacceptable danger in electing him to lead our nation.”

Obama took the piss at the correspondents dinner a few years ago, that was the night he decided to run.
 


Well, if he'd intended bringing up Bill on Sunday, there's that option gone. At best he sounds like a sex pest, at worst sounds like sexual assault.

Oh no, it'd be way funnier if this came out after he went on and on about Bill on Sunday.
 
Suddenly extremely relevant... Expect this name on Sunday?


By the way, I think I would have been very happy with "Check Out Sex Tape" being the phrase of peak ridiculousness to look back on when this is all consigned to history. Who would have thunk that he'd actually top that?? :D
 
HOW IS ANYONE VOTING FOR THIS MAN STILL
 
It's despairing women will vote for him after this. And any other group he's insulted...which is most of them.
 
"Locker room banter" apparently.

Oh dear. Is he sinking to the level of Richard Keys?:lol:
 
Out of interest how credible are the allegations against Bill?
 
Surely going to be big Rep defections over this. Some big hitters have to back down from supporting him. Can evangelicals seriously swallow down their conscience any longer, for example?
Nah they're a bunch of cowards*, Trump's already got a hold of them.

*If only there were another term for this more appropriate to the situation.

How do we go about putting a bet on this on the Caf? :lol:

I think there'll be one big defection over this tomorrow. Ted Cruz/Marco Rubio, if you really have your eye on 2020, now's the time...
