Donald Trump ex President Thread: A thread for the collective and humourous fallout

tl;dr version: You're being a silly ass

13 of us left. I've just been lurking for a few months. Just surprised I remembered my password on the first try.

Saw a poll where Michelle Obama would be up 11 points on Trump tomorrow if she replaced Biden. Could we ever get so lucky?

“It came to me I was having a bad night when I realized that even when I was answering a question, even when they turned his mic off, he was still shouting. And I let it distract me. I’m not blaming it on that, but I realized that I just wasn’t in control,”

This is what I was worried about. The ABC interview didn't make me feel assured. At all. Nobody realized that muting trumps mic doesn't mute his mouth? Nobody realized it's very distracting to try to speak when the person next to you is shouting. Other moments were very concerning, that of democracy dies he'll know he did his best. Hopefully the clouds will lift on Sundays reasoning-session, because f*ck, man....

I think CNN was strategically doing a split-screen only when Trump wasn't ranting. That long pause where everyone thought Biden glitched...was it because he was listening to trump ranting?

Donald Trump still owes several cities money from past campaign rallies, including El Paso. Information compiled in 2019 from the Centers for Public Integrity shows that at least 12 cities were owed money, showing El Paso was owed the most.

Laura Cruz-Acosta, communications director for the City of El Paso confirmed Trump has an outstanding balance of $569,204.63 which includes a one-time late fee of $98,787.58 for his February 2019 visit.

"It was primarily for law enforcement purposes and safety and security for the health and wellness of the community as much as the health and wellness of those who were visiting us," Cruz-Acosta said.

Also still unpaid: Mesa, Tuscon, Minneapolis, Billings, Albuquerque, Lebanon, Erie, Burlington, Spokane, Eau Claire, and Green Bay.

On a snowy Tuesday evening in April, Trump made his first visit in four years to Green Bay, delivering a roughly one-hour speech to hundreds of supporters gathered downtown at the KI Convention Center. The city's costs for the rally totaled nearly $33,400 officials said in a July 2nd press release. The costs stemmed from operational, security, and traffic coordination services—the biggest chunk coming in police overtime— said Diana Ellenbecker, the city's finance director.

The April rally was the most expensive presidential campaign event Green Bay has hosted without being reimbursed since 2016. Trump's campaign has refused to reimburse the city for those costs or for nearly $9,400 in police expenses related to an August 2016 rally, city records show. "When we reached out to the Trump camp, they sent an email that they’re not responsible for paying this bill," Ellenbecker said.

Trump has refused to pay over a dozen cities for rallies dating back to 2015, perhaps most notably El Paso, where Trump owes nearly $600,000.

A federal grand jury returned an indictment yesterday charging a former Las Vegas city councilwoman and current Nye County, Nevada justice of the peace for her scheme to defraud donors to a charity to memorialize police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.

According to the indictment, Michele Fiore, 53, of Pahrump, Nevada—a then-Las Vegas city councilwoman—solicited donations to build a statue honoring Las Vegas police officers who were killed in the line of duty.

Fiore allegedly promised donors that "100% of the contributions" would be used towards the creation of this statue.

However, Fiore did not use any of the tens of thousands of dollars in charitable donations for the statue for fallen officers, and instead converted the money to her personal use.

The donations were used to pay her political fundraising bills and rent, and were transferred to family members, including to pay for her daughter's wedding.

Fiore is charged with four counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. If convicted, she faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison on each count.

Fiore was appointed justice of the peace for Nye County in December 2022 after her failed campaign for state treasurer. She previously represented Ward 6 on the Las Vegas City Council from 2017 to 2022.

During her time on the council, Fiore was appointed mayor pro tem but resigned after facing backlash over accusations that she made racially-charged comments during a Clark County Republican Convention.

She also faced a failed recall effort, a Federal Election Commission complaint, and a lawsuit over a physical altercation with current Councilwoman and candidate for Las Vegas mayor, Victoria Seaman.

In 2015, Fiore volunteered to fly to Paris and personally shoot Syrian refugees in the head, "I'm OK with putting them down, blacking them out, just put a piece of brass in their ocular cavity and end their miserable life. I'm good with that."

Weeks later she earned national headlines for a Christmas card showing her entire family, including a small boy, clutching handguns and assault weapons.

In 2016, Fiore ran for the U.S. House, finishing third in the Republican primary with just over 5,000 votes.

In 2021, Fiore launched her run for Nevada governor with a campaign video in which she fired a gun at signs marking her "three shot plan" to ban vaccine mandates, ban critical race theory, and stop voter fraud.

In 2022, she ran another gun-centered ad in Palm Beach, Florida in order to draw Trump's endorsement in her bid for governor, which she did not get.

The American flag that served as a backdrop for Trump at the Butler rally was held aloft by two long-boom cranes donated for the event by Mitchel DeLullo, 31, a Butler County small business owner.

Late last week, he was contacted by a company affiliated with the Butler rally in search of forklifts for the event. Mr. DeLullo instead enthusiastically offered to donate his two best cranes to "hang a real big flag" in support of Trump.

Since the shooting, Mr. DeLullo has been unable to retrieve the cranes, because they are in the middle of one of the most scrutinized crime scenes in the country. He has lost over $50,000 of business as a result.

The owner says he has had to cancel several contracts for the million-dollar cranes. He says that even if the losses put him out of business, it was worth it to help Trump. Surely the campaign will reimburse him, right?

Cities and companies are still trying to collect what they're owed from the 2016 Trump Campaign...

If (when?) Trump's found guilty, he will try and flee to Russia or one of Putin's satellite countries like Belarus. Been said for some time now.

During his interview with billionaire donor Elon Musk, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said they could "meet next time in Venezuela" if he loses November's election.

"If something happens with this election, which would be a horror show, we'll meet the next time in Venezuela, because it'll be a far safer place to meet than our country," Trump said to Musk. "OK, so we'll go. You and I will go, and we'll have a meeting and dinner in Venezuela."

Trump had alleged that Venezuela has released violent criminals from its jails and sent them to the United States to reduce its own crime rate.

I called it back in Nov 2020, but I didn't forsee all the judicial ratfvckery that happened

Good, Trump can suck off Maduro, another election thief. They'll be two peas in a pod. Madaro might actually succeed with his coup though.

MyPillow is auctioning off hundreds of pieces of equipment and subleasing manufacturing space after several shopping networks and major retailers took the company's products off shelves. The Chaska-based manufacturer recently listed more than 850 "surplus equipment" items on the online auction site K-Bid. Sewing machines, industrial fabric spreaders, forklifts, and even desks and chairs are up for auction.

Founder and CEO Mike Lindell said MyPillow has experienced a loss in revenue and the items are no longer needed as the company consolidates its operations. "It was a massive, massive cancellation," Lindell said in a phone interview Monday. "We lost $100 million from attacks by the box stores, the shopping networks, the shopping channels, all of them did cancel culture on us."

Evidnetly, the free market is cancel culture now.

Embattled MyPillow pitchman and vociferous election-theft conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell's already-bad financial situation just got worse.

Now, a California firm that allows merchants to provide customers with product protection plans is accusing Lindell of promising and failing to pay $564,151.39 in outstanding invoices.

The relationship between MyPillow and Extend, Inc. began in November 2022, when the two entered into a contract by which Extend would "provide My Pillow's customers with certain shipping and product protection services in exchange for a percentage of revenues generated by the sale of those services," the lawsuit explains.

This comes at a difficult time for Lindell, who claimed last year to have been stripped of everything but his house and pick-up truck. He currently owes millions to landlords, lawyers, vendors, and the winner of the $5M "election fraud" challenge.

Lindell is claiming that he has never heard of Extend, Inc.

Well, I would do that, and we’re sitting down. You know, I was somebody — we had, [random acquaintance], and my [random family member], was so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue.

"But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about — that, because look, [the topic] is [the topic], couldn’t — you know, there’s something — you have to have it in this country. You have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers, compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to. But they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us. But they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including [the topic], that it’s going to take care. We’re going to have — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country.

Because I have to stay with [the topic]. I want to stay with [the topic]. But those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth, but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just — that I just told you about. We’re going to be taking in trillions of dollars. And as much as [the topic] is talked about as being expensive, it’s, relatively speaking, not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers will be taking in.

We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people. And then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people. But we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first. It’s about make America great again. We have to do it because right now, we’re a failing nation. So we’ll take care of it. Thank you. Very good question. Thank you.”

...So, you see, the puppy was like industry. In that, they were both lost in the woods. And nobody, especially the little boy—‘society’—knew where to find ‘em. Except that the puppy was a dog. But the industry, my friends, that was a revolution!

Lol, Donald Trump and JD Vance talking about their plan for funding childcare is truly amazing.

JD Vance basically just saying that Grandparents and aunts/uncles should just help out to unburden the childcare industry... and he continued to say that childcare workers shouldn't have have so many qualifications and burdened with so much student debt...

Oh, you mean the education that you also don't want to fund? And you don't want to protect children by making sure that the people working with them are appropriately trained and safe?

un-fu#king-believable these fu#king clowns.

Yep, there's the problem all along, lazy grandparents just not doing enough. So Glad Trump-Vance figured it all out.

Weeks after one shipping company claimed to be owed hundreds of thousands and filed suit in federal court, another is suing Mike Lindell's MyPillow in Minnesota to collect on a debt north of three quarters of a million dollars.

The suit filed just this week claims MyPillow owes close to $800,000 and counting for its pillow delivery services over the years.

In October 2023, Lindell said that MyPillow had been "decimated" and "lost millions of dollars" after Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic sued him and his company for insisting the voting technology companies' "corrupt" machines "flipped" votes to President Joe Biden to ensure Donald Trump lost.
