All Things Trump: the story continues...

[rasetsu]

As Donald Trump sat with some of the country’s top oil executives at his Mar-a-Lago Club last month, one executive complained about how they continued to face burdensome environmental regulations despite spending $400 million to lobby the Biden administration in the last year.

Trump’s response stunned several of the executives in the room overlooking the ocean: You all are wealthy enough, he said, that you should raise $1 billion to return me to the White House. At the dinner, he vowed to immediately reverse dozens of President Biden’s environmental rules and policies and stop new ones from being enacted, according to people with knowledge of the meeting, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a private conversation.

Giving $1 billion would be a “deal,” Trump said, because of the taxation and regulation they would avoid thanks to him, according to the people.

This will be fun. After Trump, state levle parties and their whole system collapses. We will get more blue states.

“The big, sort of under-the-radar story in American politics over the last couple of years was the way Trump and his people had taken over state parties across the country,” said Dan Judy, a senior analyst for North Star Opinion Research, a Republican guidance and consultancy company based in Virginia.

“Even early in the primary process, a year and a half ago when Ron DeSantis was riding high and leading a lot of the polls, I was always thinking: Trump has control of the state parties, he’s got his people in, and they are, for lack of a better word, going to attempt to rig the process in favor of Donald Trump.

“If you look at it, that’s exactly what happened. A lot of state parties changed their rules to make their primaries winner-takes-all, which absolutely helped Trump, especially as it came down to a one-on-one with Nikki Haley. It was clear that she was going to have to win some of these things outright to get any delegates at all, and she couldn’t do it.

“The fact that the Florida GOP has also been completely taken over by Trump folks is really indicative of a trend that has happened everywhere.”

Whos is paying for the rallies? Trump has cut off most funds except his legal team. And state level teams to contest the election.

Reports are 80,000-100,000 people showed up Saturday for a trump rally in Wildwood in southern NJ. trump was very abrasive.

Never mind. It was a Trump fact. There were less than 10 000.

But it had some old stuff and stuff edited in.
"BREAKING: Repeatedly at tonight’s rally, Donald Trump slurred his words, was incoherent and not understandable. Trump continues to demonstrate a significant loss of cognitive abilities and overall unfitness for public office."

[Sean Hayden]

They don’t even have Trump signs here, and I’m in Trump county. One idea we’ve kicked around is that they took them down shortly after the 6th, and have been laying low and peeping through the blinds since.

Will that force him to stop running or prevent his being nominated or elected?

[Brian Peacock]

No. Only his inevitable death will stop the Trump juggernaut, and perhaps not even that.

I for one welcome President A.I. Trump etc etc.

I bet Ivanka beats junior and baron to be the next great Frump politician

[Tero]

Yeah and dogs are not part of the Trump lifestyle so no puppies for Ivanka to shoot.

[Svartalf]

well, she can go in front of rump tower and publicly devour a live kitten, or maybe just use her limo to roll over a baby....

Trump wasting time in court. He should be campaigning. But he has plans. He is going to write a book.
