Those weren’t just political talking points. It was a reminder that Trump is an incompetent industrial scale bullshit producer and a warning of what was certain to be our fate if we put him in charge.

"Still better than having a President who laughs too much," says every toothless moron Trump supporter who voted for him in November. 🤬

And the country did put him in charge...and here we are. 😭

He’s an incompetent conman, absolutely, but all this tariff bullshit has only one purpose: transfer all the tax money raised to the very wealthy via tax cuts! It’s deliberate wealth transfer from the masses to the billionaires - a reverse Robin Hood move. I wish more people “got” that! 😔

I have a feeling that Donnie's casinos were fronts for laundering money of the Russian mafia. They made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

And we put him in charge by allowing our nation to be immersed in Right Wing media, social media, podcasts etc. All in a silo so most voters never hear anything but RWng "news" & "alternative facts" vote accordingly.

His incompetence was well-known and the ruins of his casino ventures were easy to see. Yet, many people remain convinced he is a successful businessman because a tv reality show said so.

Math is hard, my dude. Hard. But those casinos don’t bankrupt themselves: it takes a very strong man to do it.

Unrelated kvetching: Can’t believe we have to live through this. (I am a retired pricing director, and would want to call in sick tomorrow if I was still working.)

We'll have less money, fewer jobs and higher prices. It's a trifecta!

What's the over/under on the number of average American citizens standing in soup lines by 2026?

My husband worked at the Playboy Casino. Trump bought it, then employees couldn't cash their paychecks bc Trump sucked it dry. Trump stiffed vendors, including his paper vendor. When he opened his Taj Mahal Casino, Trump told employees to bring their own TP bc what he had was "for the guests".

Trump’s erratic & incompetent business management style reversed the casino house’s odds

That’s what I kept telling people!!
You can like him all you want, but he should not be anywhere near the White House running our country! With everyone praising him that he could do better than Joe Biden with the economy?? What?????

He got rich from all those bankruptcies. Never held accountable for the fraud. Now the extranational technofascist billionaires that are pulling his strings will get rich from bankrupting America.

Casinos shouldn’t be allowed to declare bankruptcy.

People have known all along what kind of person he is. And the people around him covered for him, just like they covered for Harvey Weinstein or P Diddy, or RFK. There were plenty of people who knew exactly who he was, but they were starstruck or calculating or fearful or just didn’t care.

And his dad was even laundering money into the casino to keep it afloat.

The amount of incompetence is, frankly, quite impressive. And I don’t mean that as a compliment, more “world record for being dropped on his head as a baby”

He is also has high popular support and is practically immune to prosecution. Long live the king.

jamesdolson.bsky.social•3 days ago

creox.bsky.social•3 days ago

Six casinos.

Why have so many for decades fallen for his BS? Makes no sense

I knew he was ridiculous in the 80s - and I was living in Alaska at the time. I still don't get it. Once in NYC I was walking by Trump Tower - I walked inside & my first impression was: gaudy. Rolled my eyes and left.
