For the next debate, they should publish the questions a week ahead of time so that debaters and the audience all know what the questions will be. If Trump still can't manage to prepare even with that much transparency, I don't know what to tell him.
In memorial, Thoughts and prayers for Trump's political career. It was painful, but we are all in a better place now that the suffering is over.
Former president Donald Trump moved to hire his racist firebrand pal Laura Loomer—a far-right, Islamophobic 9/11 conspiracist who earlier this month was paid to say she eats dog food—but one of his top advisers swooped in and blocked the hire, according to a report in Axios. The news site said Trump held an interview with Loomer last year, but his campaign co-manager Susie Wiles made a point of sitting in so that she could nix the hiring. The news comes as several senior figures in the Republican Party who are normally sympathetic to Trump, including Senator Lindsey Graham and Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene, have excoriated the former president for palling around with Loomer this week, including by bringing the 9/11 truther to September 11 memorials in New York City and Pennsylvania. “It’s an insult to those who have to fight for their lives now, who are sick and dying,” said John Feal, an emergency responder who was at the scene of the attack in 2001, in an interview with CNN. He noted the thousands of responders and others who were exposed to potentially toxic substances that day and have subsequently been diagnosed with cancer. As she has traversed the country with Trump, Loomer has insisted she doesn’t work for him and was invited as a guest. A twice-failed congressional candidate and online commentator, Loomer has repeatedly spread demented conspiracy theories but that hasn’t been enough to keep her out of Trump’s orbit. Axios reported that staff have tried to weed out the former president’s craziest pals from his entourage—avoiding things like his 2022 dinner with antisemites Nick Fuentes and Kanye West—but Loomer has continue to earn Trump’s praise and affection. In addition to being a semi-regular fixture at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, Loomer said she spent the day with Trump last year in his private box at the LIV Golf tournament in Bedminster, New Jersey. In a video Loomer posted to X that day, Trump can be heard telling her that she is “very special.” Trump also heaped praise on Loomer earlier in April, pointing her out in a crowd at Mar-a-Lago to note she is a “woman with courage.” “You work hard, and you are a very opinionated lady,” Trump added, in the Bedminster video, with a grateful Loomer looking on. “I have to tell you that, and in my opinion, I like that.” Some of Loomer’s past “opinions” have included suggesting that the 2018 mass shootings in Parkland, Florida and Santa Fe, Texas were staged, or that the 2017 Las Vegas shooter was affiliated with ISIS, and that the attempted 2018 U.S. mail bombings, which targeted progressive figures including President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama, were a false flag operation. Last year, she promoted a video spreading the conspiracy theory that 9/11 was an “inside job”—“I’ve never denied the fact that Islamic terrorists carried out the 9/11 terrorist attacks,” she told CNN Thursday. Muslims and immigrants have been a central target of Loomer’s ire—she’s invoked the white nationalist great replacement theory and said she supports a “white ethnostate.” Early on in her career, when she wasted considerable energy on unfunny right-wing pranks, including when she tried putting a burka on New York City’s famous Fearless Girl statue and merely annoyed a bunch of well-meaning tourists. In July, she claimed President Joe Biden was “dying and final preparations are being made for him.” According to the President’s schedule Friday, he was alive and preparing to host a bilateral meeting with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
Team Trump knife fighting each other, and leaking to demean their colleagues for their personal gain.... ARE WE SICK OF THIS CRAP??? Hasn't everyone had enough of Trump's BS bad reality show?? Who gives a fck anymore if Susan Wildes didn't want Laura Loomer, and Matt Geatz said this, which Chris Lizzano or whoever disagreed with, and this guy and that guy said this behind Trump's back blah blah blah blah.... Stop freaking voting for this dipsh$t dumbasses. This is so stupid. Nobody wants to read about it every day in the NTY for the next 4 years.
Trump team insiders insist that Loomer actually “has no role, official or unofficial,” on the former president’s campaign. The claim is that she’s just there for emotional support. they’re definitely in a relationship Melania divorce papers coming after he loses the election and the sentencing for his numerous crimes starts
Trump was asked at his press conference today if he disavowed some of Loomer’s past comments, including her racist remarks about Harris and conspiracy theories about 9/11. As usual, he gives his typical response... Trump said, “I don’t even know what you’re talking about. I do know that she may have said something based on what you’re telling me, but I don’t know what she said, but I’ll go take a look, and I’ll put out a statement later on.” I raise the big BS flag again once again today. That guy always says stuff like that. I never saw her before. I've never met that person. I never heard that.
Vance has also said there's been a “massive rise in communicable diseases” in Springfield. Add that to the fear mongering lies spewed by that disgusting duo to incite their racist extremists. Bomb threats force second consecutive day of school closures in Springfield, Ohio In addition to those school evacuations, several city commissioners and a municipal employee were the target of an emailed bomb threat, city spokesperson Karen Graves said. A second email threatened multiple locations that included Springfield City Hall, Cliff Park High School, Perrin Woods Elementary School, Roosevelt Middle School, the Bureau of MotorVehicles and the Ohio License Bureau Southside, Graves added. Former President Donald Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, have pushed those false claims as part of a broader effort to use Springfield as an example for what they say are the harmful consequences of immigration. Vance has also said there's been a “massive rise in communicable diseases” in Springfield, but Clark County Combined Health District Commissioner Chris Cook said Friday that's not accurate. “Overall, we have not seen a substantial increase in all reportable communicable diseases," Cook said. "In fact, if you look at all reportable communicable diseases together (minus COVID) for the year ending 2023 you will see that we are at our lowest rate in Clark County since 2016.” https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...ve-day-school-closures-springfield-rcna171043
I'll be honest: we shouldn't make jokes about Trump being in a relationship with Loomer. That's no better than the baseless bullshit MAGA says all of the time. We don't need to say that when the facts are that the former president is personally traveling with this lunatic.
Is that what the kids are calling it today LOL I don't think his wife appreciates those close and personal pics but who knows, she doesn't strike me as your "typical" wife, I`m not saying she`s a gold digger but I think she has her pre nup and she is just waiting on the right time to exit stage left. IMO Melania is a beautiful woman and then you have trump who is a fat ass pig so it just doesn't add up to me that there in it for the death do us part bit
