And Trump will just pocket that money. Pretty good con. That’s what he does best.
Not really a con if the marks know full well that they are giving Donny money.
We should be keeping a list of those anti-democratic “hotel guests”.
The marks aren’t the people renting the rooms, it’s the Federal Government that’s giving him the space to run his fundraiser.
The hits misses just keep on coming.

Trump Rants About Media Spending ‘All Night’ On Ida Instead Of His ‘Great’ Taliban Deal
Former President Donald Trump called in to a conservative radio show Monday to gripe about the media spending “all night long” on Sunday covering the deadly and massively destructive Hurricane Ida instead of his “great agreement” with the Taliban.
…
“Afghanistan is not even something that can be discussed in a rational way,” Trump told host Todd Starnes. “The level of stupidity — and we had a great agreement,” he added.
Several political observers and international experts have blamed Trump’s agreement for emboldening the Taliban and laying the groundwork for the mayhem of the U.S. military exit under Trump’s successor, President Joe Biden, this month.
…
Trump also boasted to Starnes that there were 68,000 people at his maskless Alabama political rally earlier this month. He inflated the actual numbers by more than 50%, according to estimates by the Secret Service and the Morgan County Sheriff’s Office.
…
Trump then continued to rant about the “media, which is fake and crooked and corrupt, they’re the worst people, they’re the most corrupt people.”
“The only thing I don’t understand is why. They’ve got to hate our country. And they are, in fact, the enemy of the people. But the corrupt media shows the hurricane all night long,” added the former president.
Starnes tried, but couldn’t get a word in.
…
I think I speak for many of us here when I say
Can’t he just use a Sharpie to draw the hurricane somewhere else? It worked last time, didn’t it?
From that article:
“Look what I did with the embassy in Jerusalem”
Perhaps what you did with the embassy is part of the problem.
I used to be Catholic and now I’m Jewish, and Donald didn’t do one fucking thing for me.
He did make one true, universally applicable statement quoted in that article:
“I just don’t understand how that’s even possible,” he said.
That is correct, you ignorant loser. You don’t understand one thing about how anything is possible.
He is such an idiot. Polling showed more American Jews opposed moving the embassy than supported it. If he wants American Jews to vote for him then maybe he shouldn’t rely on the views of Israeli jews and his orthodox son in law alone but maybe also listen to the views of the rest of the Jewish community.
AIUI, that move is much more popular with the evangelical Christians, since it supposedly is a step towards the end times.
I’ve expressed my contempt for Trump many, many times on this board, and I happen to think the embassy move was one of those rare stopped-clock-are-right-twice-per-day things. But then, I am an Israeli Jew.
Was going to mention this myself. A shocking amount of the policy on Israel coming from the right wing is predicated on the belief that it is going to herald the second coming of Jesus.
He just keeps makin’ shit up. 
Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday made what appeared to be a new claim about his involvement in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
Trump, whose fanciful “recollections” of what happened during and after 9/11 have been repeatedly called into question, told a story in an interview with conservative network Newsmax about the time “two big firemen” moved him to safety amid fears a nearby building was about to collapse.
“We were hearing creaks, I’ve never forgotten it, it was I think the United States Steel Building it was called at the time, and it’s 50 stories tall, and we heard creaks,” he said in the previously untold tale.
“I said, ‘That building is going to come down,’ and two big firemen grabbed me, and grabbed other people, and they just moved out of that area,” Trump continued. “Never came down but, I never heard a noise like that. And it was a scary situation. But the job they did was so incredible, the first responders.”
…
I think this says waaaaaay too much about Trump’s fantasy life. Two big burly firemen, indeed.
“As soon as he picked me up in his big, strong arms, I reached out and gently wiped off a smudge of soot on his cheek. He gave a soft smile that I returned. He felt so warm, I was at peace. He held me closer and I gave a small shudder…”
Dear Penthouse
I never thought it would happen to me……….
With a tear in his eye, he said, “Sir, you are now the owner of the tallest building in NYC. We salute you and pledge our lives to your service.”
I am so stealing those!
“Then he threw me over his shoulder like a Continental soldier, great man, very great, now you don’t see them treating Pocahontas like that, with that kind of respecting, that’s the way it is.”
