The Ultimate Irony

August 02, 2016 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Y’all, Donald Trump can’t remember if he said that he has the best memory in the world.

Seriously.  I’m not making this up.

In a lawsuit involving Trump University, Trump was asked about sworn testimony he gave.

“Did I say I have a great memory or one of the best in the world?” Trump asked for clarification, to which he was told he’d said he had “one of the best in the world.”

“I don’t remember saying that. As good as my memory is, I don’t remember that, but I have a good memory,” Trump responded.

“So you don’t remember saying that you have one of the best memories in the world?” Forge asked.

“I don’t remember that. I remember you telling me, but I don’t know that I said it,” Trump continued.

He stood by another expression that he had “one of the all-time great memories.”

Well, obviously not.

And they say irony is dead.

Thanks to AlanInAustin for the heads up.

    Mrs. B., “they” would be wrong. The snacilbupeR are hemorrhaging irony with Donnie Drumpf their king of bleeders.

    Rastybob, celebrate your thirst with the Donnie Drumpf version of “99 Beers on the Wall.” Over the weekend we were speculating if Donnie would make it to the first debate. With 98 days remaining, my bet is that Donnie won’t make it to Labor Day. He is unraveling fast.

    😀 Speaking of labor, I’d join you in a drink. but. Doctor placed Jane on the ‘no fly list’ for the DNC convention. So we’re in that any second now drive to the hospital waiting stage. Have our car keys and my catcher’s mitt at the ready. They tell us that the second one can come out flying.

  5. To quote my dad with dementia: Nobody ever told me that. News to me!

  6. PKM– I have been there and done that. Good luck. My first one took 4hr. The second one 15min. If we men had to have baby’s there would only ever be one in a family. I could see one, Your young, your dumb, your in love. And it seamed like a good idea at the time. But if I were a women before I would let some SOB talk me into doing that a second time I would sew that baby maker shut.

  7. Not only does Drumpf not know the difference between truth and lies, he doesn’t even know what words mean.

    Rastybob, whoa, “sew it shut” is not an image anyone needs.

    Irony … be the my salvation – only if as dead as tRump’s candidacy.

    We need to cease all this folderol talk of mental; and emotional incompetence of tRump. He might fail a competency hearing and then Clinton would be up against a candidate republi-cons & -can’ts wood come out of the wood worm to vote for.

    Bad grammer in above sintinse is entinshunal, unlike tRump’s at today’s presser.

    Rastybob, a toast to the strength of women! Seriously, ladies. You are the best.

    Just one more in a pile of 1000+ reasons Donnie Drumpf is unqualified to be president. He doesn’t understand women or people, he doesn’t understand economics, he is clueless regarding the military and sacrifice, he doesn’t understand any form of policy, foreign or domestic. In essence, he doesn’t understand squat. He’s a one man billboard for doubling down on evolving toward the elimination of white male privilege to the extent that our planet can survive. Come save us, Hilz!

    Rhea, while understanding the concept, that is sure not a world in which I’d like to live.

    Shout out to Micr. I tried man, I really did. In the name game little kool II will be Jack Paul. I was holding out for Jack Daniel, but Jane was on to us, my friend.

  10. How will Donnie J explain this one if ask by the press ?
    ” It’s a conspiracy. The court reporter must be a librul. I would’ve remembered saying that. I have one of the best memories the world has ever known.”
    Tis’ a shame he forgot the line; ” Oh! What a wicked web we weave when we first practice to deceive.”

  11. @Larry: Another day, another lie? No, another day, another BATCH of lies.

    Voting has never been more important. Help others to register and vote in any way you can. That might mean access to your high-speed internet to track down documents. It might mean a small cash gift (masquerading as a loan if that saves face). It might means rides to and from the DMV; rides to and from the polls. Help your friends, neighbors, colleagues, congregants, family members, associates (as long as they’re not rightwing nutjobs).

    Hell, even if they ARE RWNJs, talk to them about what a clear and present danger to the planet a tRump presidency would represent, and that the only real choice is Hillary Clinton. If you’re dealing with young, new voters who declare that since Bernie lost, they’re voting Stein or Johnson, explain that neither of them can do anything but siphon votes from the Democrat who can win!

    He also said today that the writers at the New York Times “don’t write good. They don’t know how to write good.”

    My eyes rolled clean out of my head, took me forever to find them.

    PKM + Jane … Congrats on this soon-to-be little Kool II aka JP!!
    Yes, if men had to go through what we’ve managed to do and survive [barely], they’d tie a knot in their whatever or go under for the snip-snip!
    LOL

  14. Good luck PKM and Jane! After all the pain comes the rush of endorphins at seeing that little wrinkled face emerge and the love rush obliterates what came before. The biology explains what happens when giving birth, but it can’t explain how it feels. Absolute joy comes close.

    Drumpf is now discovering how he has been caught in his web of lies, that despite his world’s greatest memory, he’s forgotten. Saw an interview he gave after his Miss Universe pageant in Russia, claiming that Putin sat down with him and talked and couldn’t have nicer. Then they played a very recent interview where he claimed never to have met Putin, nor ever talked with him. And it’s all on tape. Keep spewing Drumpf.

  15. Back in the old days, Richard Nixon had Rose Mary Woods allegedly perform a contortionist act to accidentally erase some of his tapes. Just the crucial ones that could confirm his testimony.

    I imagine Donald Trump in this age of nanotechnology, may have upgraded his assistant to a tiny Lululemon clad practitioner of yoga inside his brain, pressing the hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus, etc, creating minor lapses of memory inside that fantastic, yuuuge brain of his. At just the crucial time, like during court testimony.

  16. When you lie so much, it’s hard to keep track of all the lies you’ve told.

    Or I’ve heard many, many people say he has memory loss. Lots and lots of people have written and told me that!

    16
  17. I’m just glad to see all of this stuff coming to the surface so those of us who remember have tapes to back us up. Makes it harder for the cover-your-eyes set to doubt the fact checkers.

    From Trump’s future divorce proceedings:

    Trump: I have the best memory.

    Lawyer: Did you marry Melania?

    Trump: I don’t remember doing that.

    (Hey, it could work!

    To me, it could have been the beginning of a modern day rewrite of Abbott and Costello’s Who’s on First.

    In reality, the Cinnamon-Fuhrer, is just plain nutz.

    Coprolite – I know. Worst comedy sketch ever!

  21. Elizabeth Moon says:

    There’s still so much hate aimed at Clinton…I’ve had tweets saying Clinton may be better than Trump, but she’s wrong about everything, just less wrong, and Stein is the miracle-worker who can save us all. I don’t see what a lot of this is based on, other than the non-stop repetition of “lying Hillary, crooked Hillary, corrupt Hillary” that’s been the GOP’s background chant for years.

    21
  22. but PKM, this cannot be!:

    “He doesn’t understand women or people, he doesn’t understand economics, he is clueless regarding the military and sacrifice, he doesn’t understand any form of policy, foreign or domestic.”

    why, he has a great mind, the best mind, and it tells him things. little things and big things, but it’s a great mind, a quality mind, and very well educated. or so he has told us. but my guess is he doesn’t remember.

    the pity of it is, his was a wasted desk, in all those expensive schools he attended. someone else could have used that desk, and actually used that expensive education.

  23. A young couple is in the hospital having their first baby. Mom wants a natural birth without anesthesia, so the doctor offers an alternative, a machine that can transfer pain from the Mother to the Father. Quaking husband reluctantly agrees to take 10%. No problem so he raises it to 50%. No problem still so Hubby jacks it all the way up to 100%. Mom peacefully delivers a healthy baby, the trio is released from the hospital and they went home. That’s where they found the mailman dead on the porch.

  24. oopsie! I forgot, congrats to you and the missus on #2. yeah, those second ones tend to fly right out, making up, I suppose, for how slow their older sibling was.

    Henry!! Hahahahahah….. Thanks. Needed that.

  26. Henry, that’s funny.

    PKM, congratulations to Jane, you and #1 on the second one, coming to a home near you! How exciting!

    Megyn Kelly, yes, Faux News, says Scumpf is setting up excuses for getting his a $$ kicked in November. Rigged system (even with Die[snacilbupeR]bold machines?), unfair debate dates, etc.

  27. Lunargent says:

    So, the man who’s made a career of stiffing his contractors, bilking his investors, and slandering everyone who ever looked at him cross-eyed is about to discover that there’s unfairness in the world?

    Quick, Marie – my smelling salts!
    (Marie is my imaginary maid.)

  28. DAMN. I walked in here to say something, but now I don’t remember what it was.

    Talk about irony. Ksir Khan, a real live Muslim is bringing down DT. Guess Donnie was right to worry.
