I think he's cementing his brand in the minds of this new market of consumers (his base) for years to come. Look for Trump boots, golf clubs, jeans, wine, point and shoot video games, condoms, Trump Taj Mahal home version, etc. to be sold exclusively at Walmart. I always said this was all about branding.


I'm hoping Trump buys the Wizards. How sick would that be.

People might not be impressed with Mahinmi now, but how about when he's rebranded as the Trump Tower? And wouldn't it be cool if he made Mexico pay for John Wall?

I just want to hear him say "Ernie, you're fired."

And short lived. We probably couldn't keep any cheerleaders and we'd be bankrupt and sold to Seattle within a year....and we'd still be the Washington Wizards. :-?

On the plus side, the Maverick games would be epic and who wouldn't want to see Trump storm off stage at the draft lottery claiming that's it rigged. And he'll probably never grab a bigger p*ssy than Ernie.

Read on Twitter

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Crazy day of hacks. Anonymous has claimed responsibility for all emails, then went on to hack 5 other Clinton office worker gmail accounts exposed by the original leaks. Claimed they also got the 33k emails from hrcoffice.com. The continuous MSM Russian claims apparently set them off when CNN posted Russia hacked the Florida voting polls, and tried to pin it on Wikileaks.

They have since live posted hacking into Podesta's iCloud account and deleting his iPhone and iPads remotely. They posted his passwords. They just hacked his twitter account an hour ago.

http://archive.is/fgOX8

Link above shows the hacked twitter post and the crwzy responses (i.e.: go to paper and pen John).

This is a crazy hybrid of Mr Robot and House of Cards. I don't agree with hacking people in this fashion. Absolutely nuts, and bizarrely entertaining.

Clinton *really* needs to hire a firm like fireeye to get their stuff locked down. Worst part is these guys mostly use gmail all they had to do was turn on two factor authentication!

At first I thought that would be an awful idea, but this has convinced me it would be worth the entertainment.

The political analysis you've all been waiting for: The conventions have driven home that Trump doesn't have anywhere near the heavy hitters to stump for him that Hillary does, and no matter how effective he may be in campaigning, he simply can't be everywhere at once.

Hillary will have Biden with her in Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania; Kaine giving speeches in Spanish all over Florida; Bill, Michelle and Barack wherever they are needed. They are needle-movers.

Who is going to get out the vote for Trump in all of these battleground states? He and his children can't do it all themselves, and the Republican establishment has shown they will not stump for him.

I would expect things to be reported to be very close over the next several weeks, but I think the 538-type models will start to show Hillary with a widening lead. Come election day (barring something unforeseen), I think she'll win by a pretty big margin of electoral votes.

Or, I'm totally wrong. Seems like a reasonable theory though, right?


Not bad!

With today being Yom Kippur, it's good that Trump isn't Jewish. It's a day to repent for all your sins for the year. Can you imagine if he had to keep track of every sin for a whole year... and apologize for all of them in one day - without making excuses and blaming someone else?



I've been BUSY. :D

Turns out a guy who brags about sexual assault may have actually committed sexual assault. Trump now having his Bill Cosby moment. I knew once he took so long to answer Anderson Cooper's question on whether he acted on his words or not that there was something there. So now we have a sex offender, pedophile, racist, con artist. At some point the " but but but Hillary" defense becomes laughable.

Damn, trump suing the NYT now.

Trump is done. Even if these allegations end up being 100% fantasy, and I doubt it, the damage is already done. Hillary just won for sure.

I think we could have stuck a fork in him some time ago - the longer people see him the less they like him. Hillary too but just less so...
