I am not at all a finance person, but his business history makes me hesitant that this would be beneficial.
That ain’t you buddy.
“I feel the president should have at least [a] say in there,” Trump said
Kansas City news just said Trumps plane had to make an emergency landing while flying to his Bozeman rally.
Yes – landed in Billings, MT. About 2 hours east of Bozeman.
Man, between the bullet to the ear and the mechanical problems with the airplane, the universe is doing absolutely everything it can to give this guy a nervous breakdown.
ETA: kudos to the universe.
And, of course, I’m sure that his most strident MAGA supporters will be claiming that the Democrats had something to do with the mechanical issues in another failed attempt to eliminate him.
Out of anybody on this planet that I would imagine you would not want to stiff on an invoice for services rendered, mechanic for your private jet has got to be right up top beside “Russian mobsters” and “discrete adult diaper service”.
It is 33 years old. For a billionaire, he has a crappy plane.
I thinks he prefers it to a modern corporate jet because it is physically large. Didn’t he once brag (incorrectly of course) that he had the biggest plane? I recall that but can’t find the link.
This live feed of the Bozeman rally has been going for 1hr:40min as of this post and Donnie hasn’t showed up yet. Just a bunch of people waiting.

Did they not mention his plane troubles?
Thanks for that. The video is not great, and the sound could be better, but the live comments are hilarious!
“Where’s Donny von Shitzenpantz?”
“Weird and Creepy not here yet?”
“Making dozens of people wait.”
“Trump is wandering around the parking lot in his boxers.”
“Make America Late Again.”
… and many more.
Currently at 2hr:30min in and two speakers just finished and not a word. I think the peeps are getting bored.
I liked one comment: “Don For”.
So no Dozeman in Bozeman?
He finally showed up.
It’s even worse now that he’s up.
Over in less than 20 minutes.
Thankfully, NBC just cut the feed. In fairness, I think they had set aside a block of time for Trump, and he was late, and when the block of time ended, they cut him off. But don’t be surprised if he rails against NBC tomorrow, stating that the network cut him off before he was finished.
Among his remarks that I did hear was that for the past four years, it was Kamala directing Joe Biden. What happened to “Obama’s pulling Biden’s strings”? Regardless, I guess we’ll hear about this from Trumpists soon.
While they were waiting for Trump, they kept the crowd pumped up with music from… wait for it…the Titanic soundtrack!
Now that’s some epic trolling!
Remember Stephanie Grisham? For a time she was Trump’s WH Press Secretary. And her position on this campaign speaks volumes because it’s so similar to that of so many other Republicans fed up with Trump:
… But in 2024, Grisham is among the conservatives who is supporting Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign. Grisham is part of the Republicans for Harris group along with former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Illinois), former New Jersey Gov. Christie Todd Whitman and others on the right.
… Grisham told the Post, “You can only be hit over the head so much and be told your own country sucks so much before you get fatigued by it. I think people yearn for a message of hope. Now that I’ve taken a step back and watch it more as a citizen, [the Trump campaign is] just sad and depressing to watch.”
Grisham also said that she’s making plans to get the hell out of the country if Trump wins, fearing retaliation.
And all that, to my mind, sums up the essence of the Trump campaign: a flailing directionless mess full of dystopian gloom, fascist ideology, and threats against its opponents.
