    It's a signal of one's character.

    Which of his businesses survived bankruptcy, were not found fraudulent, and are not now entangled with a criminally indicted organization?

    Apparently, several NSC officials heard him. He denies the incident, but it sounds real enough to me. Face it: TFG can be outsmarted by the average bag of hair.

    8 is about 1.6% of 506. That would be less than a 99% success rate. Just saying.

    TFG lost money on a casino. Owning a casino is essentially a license to print money. The business has so much potential profit that the state has to regulate how much the casino can earn. There should be no way to lose money on one, but TFG managed it.

    Yep. He had to be put on an allowance due to his failure to pay back his debts. Not many adults have to be put on an allowance.

    He said it... it was a JOKE son... HE MADE A FUNNY!!!
    So you are so desperate you are grabbing at such thin straws that .6% is all ya got? That's NOISE LEVEL.
    Many casinos have lost money. Many have gone out of business. You obviously never saw the Vegas Strip in 1970. Most of the casinos thriving then are GONE... not all... but MOST. See if you can find a copy of "Ocean's 11"... the original with Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra... most of those famous casinos are all gone.

    Trump lost my wife and I when he held that stupid rally on January 6. The presidential election was OVER. He was not going to change anything. Pence was not going to change anything. Yet Trump held that stupid rally.

    If there are any "ingrates," it would be Mike Pence. From what I heard, Pence was getting ready to ride off into the sunset in Indiana when Trump picked him. Now HE'S running for president.

    Historically, Al Smith figured FDR screwed him after he mentored him and supported him for Governor of New York. After Smith lost the 1928 presidential election, he was jealous after FDR won in 1932.

    Why would he deny making a joke? Seems like a lie is being told here.

    The odds always favor the house. Every game, every time. The only way to lose money with a casino is through poor management. Mob involvement would work too, I guess.

    Ok, if you can't laugh... you can't laugh. That can't be fixed.
    There are many reasons any business can fail... union troubles, supply line problems, natural disasters, (remember when "Legionnaire's Disease" shut down that huge hotel in Philadelphia?)... Did you see how hotels in San Francisco are dying due to lack of customers? Lack of tourists? Lack of conventions? There's more to the business than gambling. Simple answers are for children and fools.

    As a Democrat, we really do not care it is Trump, DeSantis or anyone else. WE will cheat, we will send 20,000 mules to stuff drop boxes, we will send dead people to vote, we will send undocumented immigrant to vote, we will hack voting Machin and change vote, we will bring truck load of chinses paper ballot and cheat. And we will win.

    My question is , what is your point of supporting trump or any one from GOP. We Democrat will cheat and Win election and nothing, I mean nothing republican can do about it. So why do you care who is GOP nominee trump or Desantis . They will not be POTUS.

    Nice straw man.
    Unfortunately multiple courts have found that this is a lie. I really don't know who you think you're gaslighting. No one believes it, not even TFG.

    How's that? How did these people force YOU to do anything? Protesters are a long way from folks that seize power, make laws THEY WANT and dominate people. These protesters did none of that.

    Moving on from one situation to another is not stabbing anyone in the back.

    Competing against another person in sports, business, government, etc.. is in no way "stabbing anyone in the back". Babe Ruth was a great inspiration and example to baseball players everywhere. Roger Maris did not Stab the Babe in the back by setting a new home run record. He just did a better job.

    Henry Ford didn't stab horses in the back... he just had a better idea.

    Dude - Donald Trump admitted he cheated on his first wife. There was a very public confrontation between his mistress and his first wife - it ain't
    no secret. The fact that you don't know this makes me doubt you are a real person.

    It makes no difference to me if a President cheats on his wife. Eisenhower cheated with Kate Sommerby. JFK cheated with Marilyn and others. Clinton cheated with a whole island of nubile young women. NO ONE CARED.
    So why care if Trump does or does not do the same?
    It has absolutely no impact on me or my family. He kept gas prices low, inflation low, crime low. He had no wars in Europe draining us of billions of dollars. He kept our airspace secure. He didn't embarrass us by running away from Afghanistan. He didn't arm the Taliban. All THESE things impact on the safety and prosperity of my family. Heck, if a President keeps gas prices and food prices down, I don't care if he has sex with an aardvark. If I want moralguidance I'll call a priest, not the President.

    The first given is verifiable truth, actually. DeSantis was losing by a lot in his primary for Governor, and continued to remain down in the polls until the moment that Trump endorsed him, which immediately gave him a huge boost in polls and put him well in front in the primary race. There is no question that Trump's endorsement was the sole cause of that immediate change in polling numbers. I don't see any other way to argue that point.

    Trump is the only one willing to fight against the cheating that you mention.

    Let's give that one to you. That still says nothing about #2 and #3, and personal affairs are still not political affairs.

    A group of unarmed, disorganized protesters occupying ONE BUILDING for a few hours had no ability or intent to "overthrow the legitimately elected US government". To overthrow the government would require thousands of well organized, well armed folks from coast to coast taking over communication centers, transportation hubs, police facilities, and a lot more... with folks standing by to replace governors, military leaders, head of the CIA and FBI and lots more. This relatively small, disorganized, unarmed protesters had no ability to any of that. They simply trespassed in ONE BUILDING for a few hours.
