    Because we shouldn't let the orange tire fire distract us from the fact that his running mate is a dumpster fire as well.

    It's unnerving how...quaint these criticisms feel in comparison to said orange tire fire

    If I had the ear of every idiot alt-righter and they had mine in a beautiful ouroboros of stupidity I would definitely try to slip in some shit like "berenstain bears used to be spelled berenstein bears" into one of these rambling press conferences

    That would be like the 15th most "wait wut" thing in this particular press conference

    Is... Trump now trying to start a fight with golfers? What?

    he just doesn't want people to see him playing golf because he's terrible at the game. there have been reports of him cheating posted in previous threads.

    That's not it. He thinks he's incredible because every caddy wants a huge tip.

    His claims about not wanting to be seen holding a golf club were so he could make this attack on Obama.

    I'm 100% sure it's a total fabrication made up on the spot.

    No, Donald Trump did not eject a baby (Eyewitness report from Toronto Star reporter Daniel Dale.)
    The baby was one row in front of me, three or four rows from the stage, at Trump’s event at a high school in Ashburn, Va. ...

    But, to my eyes, it certainly was not an ejection — it was an unusually barbed endorsement of the mother’s own decision to depart.

    According to neighbors of mine who were there, the lady was actually leaving with the baby when Trump stopped her the first time, telling her it was fine, she should stay.

    He started on something else and then went back to her, telling her he was kidding and she should bounce.

    Sandra, I love you, but for gods' sakes spellcheck.

    Also, if anyone remembers the flapup over Obama doing one of these appearances and talking about arugula and how he's completely disconnected from the regular bluecollar lettuce eaters, he was talking to arugula farmers. This shit is what campaigning actually is.

    so I think the issue is, if I could diagnose here without going into mental issues or hwat have you

    - he is bored by politics so he can't talk about any of it for more than a few minutes before he himself becomes the topic.
    - he has no specifics so the poltical talk takes even less time than if the first thing was the only issue

    so you get 5 minutes of IRAN! MONEY! SPACE! LIBYA! 3RD WORLD! TAXES! no solutions, no hint of policy.

    and then he's gonna talk for another hour so buckle up.

    and he doesn't see this as an issue.

    He doesn't even need specific policy proposals to talk about something like Iran. He just needs to know enough to attack Hillary in a non-WTF is he talking about fashion. He instead says this:

    My god. Even the simplest things, like who he worked for, get turned into ridiculous attacks followed immediately by "but that's okay."
    He worked for I believe The Washington Post and The New York Times and he worked for different things. Terrible. Terrible. Totally dishonest, that's okay.

    All of this is complete fucking wordsalad gibberish. I get what he's trying to say, but it takes way too much effort, especially for someone running for President.

    There would have to be ad buys. I assume though, he's trying to say the Silent Majority will finally come to the polls in the Mystery States and Trump will win those states without even having to campaign there.

    He thinks he doesn't need campaign ads, maybe?

    The bigger question was raised in the Washington Post interview, and that is what is the secret state?
    TRUMP: Well, I’d rather not say. Because why should I highlight it? But we have some states that I think are very competitive in that no Republican has ever been competitive in. But I’d rather not say what they are. Don’t you agree with that? I’d rather not say what they are.

    RUCKER: So you’ll win with the secret state strategy?

    TRUMP: No, not the secret state, no. But I have states
    , and you know this, I have states that no other Republican would do well in that I think I’m gonna win. But I don’t want to name those states.

    Well, it's our fault for drawing his attention.
    Now, he's here, among us, reading our posts and looking for inspiration.

    We knew he had people, just the best people, googling his name for information about what his opposition was saying.
    It was all but inevitable that he would find these threads eventually.
