The Harris campaign now wants microphones to be live all the time, according to Harris spokesman Brian Fallon, who issued a statement needling Trump. "Trump's handlers prefer the muted microphone because they don't think their candidate can act presidential for 90 minutes on his own," Fallon said. Harris "is ready to deal with Trump's constant lies and interruptions in real time. Trump should stop hiding behind the mute button." read more

His idiots will accept whatever lie flows from his cakehole.

The best was the trumpidiot who blamed Obama for 9/11 because he was not in white house and was out golfing.

The party that is forcing schools to put the ten commandments in classrooms WHILE refusing to provide hungry kids with school lunches is cool with this guy who violates just about ALL of the ten commandments.

I think a lot about how the "chreestians" are cool with an adulterer, rapist, sexual assaulter, pedophile, compulsive liar, cheater, bully who is in obvious mental decline.

Every day is a new level of word salad.

"We have a phenomena [sic] coming up right now and I was talking about it the other day to David and that's AI, little things ... simple two ... little simple letters ... but it's big, And I realized the other day, more than anything, when we were at David's house and talking to a lot of geniuses from Silicon Valley and other places, they need electricity at levels that nobody's ever experienced before to have to be successful, to be a leader in AI, And a windmill turning with its blade knocking out the birds and everything else is not going to be able to make us competitive,"

On why he did not ban Tik Tok:

"So" I had it done. And then Congress said, well, they never, they they ultimately, usually fail, (laughs) you know, they are a -----" like, extremely political and they're extremely subject to people called lobbyists who happen to be very, very talented, very good and very rich. I could have banned TikTok. I had it banned just about, I could have got that done.

But I said, you know what? But I'll leave it up to you. I didn't push them too hard because, you know, let them do their own research and development, and they decided not to do it. But as you know, I was at the point where I could have got that done if I wanted to. I sort of said, you guys decide you make that decision because it's a tough decision to make.

Frankly, there are a lot of people on TikTok that love it. There are a lot of young kids on TikTok who who will go crazy without it. There are a lot of, users. There's, you know, a lot of good and there's a lot of bad with TikTok.

But the thing I don't like is that without TikTok, you can make Facebook bigger. And I consider Facebook to be an enemy of the people, along with a lot of the media.

What Facebah-book did with lock boxes, with a $500 million, Zuckerberg's, lock boxes that he put in. I mean, I considered illegal. But, you know, so they, you know, they put people in jail when they spend, they put people in jail when they spent more than $5,600 in a campaign.

They go to jail if they're $200. Look at Dinesh D'Souza, and they put him in jail over a couple of hundred bucks, and yet here's the guy spends $500 million and he doesn't go to jail."

Wounded Warrior Project's top execs fired amid lavish spending scandal

According to the charity's tax forms obtained by CBS News, spending on conferences and meetings went from $1.7 million in 2010, to $26 million in 2014, which is the same amount the group spends on combat stress recovery.

Two former employees, who were so fearful of retaliation they asked that CBS News not show their faces on camera, said spending has skyrocketed since Steven Nardizzi took over as CEO in 2009, pointing to the 2014 annual meeting at a luxury resort in Colorado Springs.

"He rappelled down the side of a building at one of the all hands events. He's come in on a Segway, he's come in on a horse," one employee told CBS News.

About 500 staff members attended the four-day conference in Colorado, which CBS News reported cost about $3 million.

Goebbels knows that if you repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth to the poorly educated.

Just his lie that a tariff is a tax on a foreign country. It isn't. It's a tax on the consumer.

His ultimate goal is to replace the income tax with a series of tariffs that will decimate the middle class and be an enormous windfall to the 1%

"In the list of untested policy ideas from former President Donald Trump, scrapping the federal income tax and replacing it with revenues from sky-high tariffs on imports is one of the most harmful. Trump floated this fiscal swap when he met with Congressional Republicans last week, but it's a deeply problematic idea for several reasons. For starters, it would cost jobs, ignite inflation, increase federal deficits, and cause a recession. It would also shift the tax burden away from the well off, substantially increasing the tax burden on the poor and middle class.

If pursued, this policy would antagonize US allies and partners, provoking worldwide trade wars, damaging global economic welfare, and undermining national security. It would also likely destabilize the global financial system."

Nothing from the Moonie Times today?

Oh well, keep flinging the poo as Sh*tler circles the bowl.

"They want to make them now electric. So that when you go into enemy territory, and you obliterate the enemy and you knock down what those tanks are firing, you do it in an environmentally friendly way," Trump said to rising laughter. "The problem with the Army tanks like cars and like trucks, the problem is that you would have to bring a battery pack along. You're going to pull it like a little wagon, like a child pulls a wagon. So they want to build an Army tank. But, you know, the battery is very big and very heavy.

"I took a cognitive test, and I aced it. Doc Ronny. Doc Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas?" Trump said, misremembering Representative Ronny Jackson's name while challenging President Joe Biden to take a cognitive test. "He was the White House doctor, and he said I was the healthiest president, he feels, in history, so I liked him very much immediately."

"In fact, he said if I didn't eat junk food, I would live to 200. That's what he said. But I said, Ronny, should I take a test? He said, well, you know, it's Walter Reed. It's sort of a public hospital. If you don't do well, they're going to find out about it. I said, well, you know, like I'm a smart person and, how tough is it? He said, it gets very tough as you get to the middle of it. And I did something that he's never seen done. I aced it. I got every question right. I aced it," Trump boasted."
