āBirth of a Ponzi Scheme.ā
Incredible, meaning āimpossible to believe.ā I would agree with that.
Man bites dog! Trump says something that is no lie.
āIncredibleā dictionary meaning:
impossible to believe.
synonyms: unbelievable, beyond belief, hard to believe, unconvincing, far-fetched, implausible, improbable, highly unlikely, dubious, doubtful;
Main meaning of āincredibleā : not credible; hard to believe; unbelievable:
So, yeah, his āfundraisingā is incredible all right.
Hah! We posted same idea within seconds. All of us @lizzymom
Yeah, and I was typing too.
Great minds and all thatā¦! (@inlabsitrust, @yail_bloor)
Iām waiting for the revelation that the $46 mil Trump has supposedly ācontributedā is actually a consulting fee heās charging his campaign for the advice he has given his own campaign. As they sayā¦ Priceless.
The FEC report showed Trumpās campaign took in $3 million in May, compared to Clinton raising $26.4 million.
Sounds bad, sure, but it doesnāt include the $1.35 he found in the couch cushions last
You really cannot make this stuff up.
And if you read it in a novel you would dismiss it as āunbelievableā (or perhaps I should make that āincredibleā??)
Every day another Baghdad Bob moment.
Someone needs to do a video collage of them side by side with their impossible claims
Again, Trump just doesnāt seem to understand how this works. He needs lots of money; saying that he doesnāt is not going to make people write bigger checks. I suppose that actually asking for money just feels too much like something a loser would do.
In fact, I think the money Trumpās ācontributedā is all made up of loans he expects to be repaid from the donors with interest. There are also hundreds of thousands in in-kind contributions which will be reimbursed by the campaign. Trump draws the press back to Mar-a-Lago every night, where they spend money at Trump properties.
It all adds up. We thought Palinās grifting was outrageous. This is the biggest scam ever, in a presidential campaign. Happening right under our noses.
ā¦or
Perfect picture for the story.
āIf need be, there could be unlimited ācash on handā as I would put up my own money, as I have already done through the primaries, spending over $50 million dollars," Trump said in the statement. "Our campaign is leaner and more efficient, like our government should be.ā
This guy is starting to sound like an Amway distributor.
Most of Trrumpās preferential loans to the campaign have come from his businesses rather than his own pocket, so I wonder if any failure to repay these loans could be carried as a loss by these firms, on the grounds that the loans were made to enhance the business value of the Trump brand. The loss, if allowable, can be taken against taxable income for the year.
Likewise, if these loans are repaid in full, some of them have been for services provided by Trump-owned businesses such as Mar a Lago, and thus reflect profit for the Trump business.
Incredible is one word for it.
This ālyingā thingā¦itās like a tic, right? He canāt help himself. Someone does research, checks the filings and they are lying or out to get him or somethingā¦because in REALITY itās been the BEST, the BIGGEST. The only problem is ārealityā never actually comes and he just moves on to the NEXT big lie.
I thought Trump said he doesnāt need money and can finance this all himself. Why is he even trying to raise money? Could it be that was lie? Nah.
One the main reasons his supporters like him is that he claims he is self funding and therefore not beholden to big donors. By admitting he is raising money, Trump is both admitting he isnāt funding the campaign himself, and also knocking out one of the main pillars supporting his wobbly campaign.
