Hey if you had of started with a small loan of a hundred and twenty million dollars you two would be the healthiest and smartest president ever.

That's satire .

Exactly, it is satire. I was giving KBers the benefit of the doubt.

The schadenfreude is strong in this one.

Rudy Giuliani former US Attorney for the SDNY, former Mayor of New York, unpaid attorney to Donald Trump, US head of cyber security, and useful idiot for Putin's GRU, FSB etc, has a bit part in Borat 2 due to be released in the USA Friday. A bedroom scene with a "fifteen year old girl."

And yes, I did burst out laughing when I read about that.

To give a different perspective - and to answer a challenge that has been leveled at both myself directly and more generally about Conservatives not critiquing Trump, here's a Clip of Ben Shapiro (very Conservative commentator) on why he will be voting for Trump in 2020.

I should note, whilst I enjoy Ben's delivery and his view on some issues, there are quite a number where he and I differ greatly. If you want to skip to the Critique, it starts at around 2:20, and goes for about 2 minutes.

The first part gives his support of Trump on his Policy success,
2nd part is his critique on Trump,
3rd part is basically him attacking the current Democrat platform and why voting against this is (in his opinion) a necessity.
He re-iterates his critique of Trump at about the 8:20 mark and makes the argument as to why this is the lesser of 2 evils.

Interesting...

The Youtube video: Putin is killing American soldiers, Trump does nothing
which cites;
CNN: The Russians have a bounty system for killing American soldiers
which cites;
The NYTimes: Anonymous sources believe that there is evidence for Russia paying the Taliban to kill US troops
which cites;
An un-verified CIA report which raises the possibility but (given this was back in July) has yet to be verified, is contested within the CIA and doesn't have sufficient supporting evidence.

This is the very definition of 'Fake News' - we've got the original source Document in the CIA, which although we can't read it, it isn't being regarded as verified, this leads to an Anonymous source leaking to the Press, saying that based on that document they believe this is happening, this leads to CNN referring to the anonymous belief as an objective fact and running the story, which leads to a Youtube Video that is built on a pyramid.

This doesn't mean that this definitively isn't happening, I don't know - but this is a perfect demonstration of a failure of left-wing journalists to properly vet a story and their willingness to self-refer, if it means they get to take a swipe at the President.

There's a very recent clip on Twitter but it doesn't translate to here and it's not on YouTube yet.

At last nights rally the most stupid president in history was talking about raising campaign finance. He said he could ring Exxon and ask how their exploration programme was going, and they might reply they needed some permits. He said he'd then ring the Exxon CEO and ask for a favour, say 25 million paid to his campaign.

If that has a familiar ring to it, and it should, that's exactly the sort of quid pro quo that got him impeached.

Not sure if you watched the real clip or one edited and cherry picked by some leftist commentator with Trump Detangement syndrome...

But what you post is a misquoted deliberate lie.
In the full clip he was saying how he does things for American and not for money, he mentioned his business contacts and how Washington works to illustrate how easily he could ask for money like that but chooses NOT to.

Thanks for the red.

There may be truth in what you say but I'm not going back to watch all the clips to check. Still, it's entirely in keeping with how he operates, his whole life is transactional.

If you are going to accuse someone of quoting a lie produce some evidence or at least what the quote was and when............

Donald Trump on Monday said he could “raise a billion dollars” for his election campaign in exchange for giving companies government favours "if he wanted to”.

Mr Trump suggested he could be “the greatest fundraiser in history” – if only he was corrupt.
“So I call the head of Exxon — I don’t know, I’ll use a company,” he said. “‘Hi, how are you doing? How’s energy coming? When are you doing the exploration? Oh, you need a couple of permits, huh? Okay.”
“But I call the head of Exxon, I say, ‘You know, I’d love you to send me $25 million for the campaign.’ ‘Absolutely sir, why didn’t you ask? Would you like some more?'”

After a clip of the comments was widely shared online, ExxonMobil responded with a statement saying no such call has taken place between Mr Trump and its CEO, Darren Woods

"I could, but I don't want to do that"

So, you prove R650R correct in his statement that it is not a statement of:

"I have done this"

but a statement of:

"I could do this, but I (with the implied moral virtue of resisting temptation) choose not to"

And then people like you wonder why people like me ignore all the Media's claims about 'Trump Lies'

Sadly that does appear to be the case. When I posted my comment it was very early in the piece, I had seen a clip that said what I quoted. As I said, it was not yet available on YouTube. I prefer to post things that are accurate, it seems this time that was not the case. We could do without the gratuitously offensive bollocks though.

You would be much better informed if you believed the media over Trump. He is now producing false statements faster than the fact checkers can keep up. It would be more accurate to assume everything he says is a lie.

He said these words.
You never said he did it in your post . I can't see what you have allegedly done wrong.
