He Got Half That Right
Donald Trump won big in New York last night, and he had this to say …
Donald Trump said that he’s confident he’ll secure the GOP nomination on the first ballot but cautioned that there would be “unbelievable turmoil” if someone else left the convention as the nominee, Politico reports.
Said Trump: “I think if the millions of people that came out to vote for me are disenfranchised, I think there’s gonna be unbelievable turmoil.”
I don’t know so much about the turmoil. I’m pretty sure that Trump supports don’t know what turmoil is.
Unbelievable? Yeah, I’ll go with the unbelievable part.
Trump also said that Paul Ryan isn’t going to run because he’s scared that Trump’s people won’t vote for him. Obviously, from past experience, a whole lot of people won’t vote for Ryan.
Last night someone called me and said they were anxiously looking forward to Donald Trump, Chris Christie, and Sarah Palin all traveling around together to campaign because that, indeed, will be unbelievable turmoil.
And, in related news, his airplane has been flying with an expired registration. Yeah, he could recycle all the whining he’s done about Republican Convention rules to use with the FAA.
The F.A.A. could also fine or assess other penalties against the owner, the operator or both; Mr. Trump owns the plane through a limited liability company. Though it is unlikely that the agency would seek the maximum penalty, flying with no registration could result in a civil penalty of up to $27,500, a criminal fine of up to $250,000 and imprisonment for up to three years, it said.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
Drumpf is using the word “turmoil” as a euphemism for “riots”.
1Given the nasty groups supporting him (KKK, white supremacists,American Nazis, RKlan etc.) that’s a given. Prayers for the citizens of Cleveland.
Let’s see, Trump in his home state received 518,601+-
2Clinton also in her home state received 1,037,344+-
I wonder if Trump knows he lost big-time to Clinton?
Trump acknowledged his close friend Carl Ichan last night. That’s two psychopaths the world would be better off without.
3But Trump voters won’t be disenfranchised if the GOP convention picks somebody else. Trump could (oh, please, please, please) run as a third party candidate, or people who want to vote for him are welcome to write in his name on their ballots.
I agree with maryelle: “turmoil” sounds like an invitation for his goons to riot. Cleveland has enough troubles without that.
4You mentioned his unregistered plane, which is still flying. Why? Why do I have to obey the law, when folks in the stratosphere do not? The FAA *could* ground it, they say. WTF? Ground the asshole!
5But, but, but … Donnie Drumpf promised that he surrounds himself with all the best people. Who was fired?
If Donnie Drumpf is the nacilbupeR candidate, the Democratic nominee needs to head over the monkey cage at the Central Park Zoo for debate practice with the pongo pygmaeus.
6If Trump doesn’t get the nomination it could lead to unbelievable turmoil, but how is that any different from him getting the nomination?
As for Paul Ryan, I suspect he does not want the nomination, but it would be one way for him to escape from the House and the Freedom Caucus.
How odd that Donald Trump should turn out to be an instrument of karma for the GOP.
7Here’s where I become a betting person, something dad told me a woman should never be, among other things. Ten to one there is some lucky guy who is actually in charge of managing everything about tRump’s 757, because, you know, it would be a big business write-off at tax time and big shots like himself never do their own work. Consequently, tRump wouldn’t know an airplane registration from the Boy Scout oath. Look for tRump to make known that it isn’t his fault his plane is unregistered and he will definitely make a HUGE deal out of it if the FAA is even mentioned that it could legally come after him. “Goon squads! Hobnail boots! And when I am President I will terminate the FAA!” Yaddayaddayadda!
8If I had a vote on Drumpf’s options, I’d vote for this “… a criminal fine of up to $250,000 and imprisonment for up to three years!”
Yes, I admit, I smiled when I read this possibility!!
9Sleep on this, Donnie. If you’ve hired incompetents who failed to register your ride, think about how well they may be monitoring the scheduled maintenance. Happy trails, dumba$$!
10Former Guv and now freshman sinator of South Dahellhole, Mike Rounds, is blaming the liberal media for not reporting the facts Drumpf spews. He also blames the media for the tenor of this election season.
11The FAA usually comes down on private pilots and commercial ones alike with both stomping feet if some infraction of the many, many rules is committed.
Except when you’re an a**hole geriatric pilot US Senator like Inhofe (R-OK) landing his light twin on a plainly designated “closed” runway full of construction workers (at Port Isabel/Bayview, TX). Or a hotdog Repuke pol like Trump.
12These are clearly the sort of extortion tactics dRUMPf is used to and that the GOTP better get used to since they saw fit to associate themselves with this psychopath.I sincerely believe dRUMPf believes his money makes him above the law, maybe immune to it.
13Ditto, Steve, ground the plane.
14Not only ground the plane,repo it and rehab it into condos for refugees from wherever. I wanna be there when dRumpf’s head explodes when this happens.
15Awe, come on now, Drumpf brags about all his money, most of which is probably in his imagination, that he can and should pay the max. And jail time cause he’s so ‘tough on criminals “
16So the primary election in Indiana on May 3 is shaping up as a bigger deal in Trump’s quest for delegates, which is why he decided to skip stops in Pennsylvania today and fly to India-No-Place to meet with Hoosier Governor (Carry That Soon-To-Be Stillborn-Fetus-To-Term) Mike Pence. And who tagged along with Trump? Crisco Christie, the New Jersey Lardass.
Truly a Confederacy of Dunces.
