I expect that pretty soon he’s going to start blaming the German people for losing WWII.

Trump: If you include Russians in any of the polls, I win 98 to 2. There is a huge conspiracy against me in America.

It’s one of life’s little ironies to me that this guy has one of the most forthcoming-to-the-press inner circles I can remember. Bunch of blabbermouths, basically. He seems to inspire disloyalty somehow. : )

Creating your own alternate reality is a really good model for governing the country. Just goes to show what a disaster he could be if he even gets close to the Presidency.

I think it’s a reflection of Trump’s lack of self-discipline.

Insiders are busy gathering notes for their subsequent book. It will be the only way to make a living after the Big Loser Loss. I’ll buy the comic book version.

Very likely. Also I’d imagine his being a huge abusive butthead could be a factor.

It’s not Trump’s fault. It’s his campaign team’s shoddy work that’s at fault. Trump should withhold payment to the lot of them and turn the money over to the Trump Foundation so he can have more portraits of himself painted.

Isn’t “Jason Miller” one of the fake names Trump uses?

“Trump’s aides” = Trump’s kids. Anybody with an eye and an asshole KNOWS The Donald totally fucked up. He blew off debate prep either because he thought he could bluff his way through the whole thing or that his attention span is so pathetically short he simply couldn’t grasp its intention. I for one am delighted. I will say it’s a shame that Gilbert and Sullivan aren’t still in business, because the Trump “campaign” would make for a lovely operetta.

I’ve heard a few titles bandied about in the trade:

  • Inside the Trump Disaster
  • How Trump was Schlonged by a Girl
  • The Rise and Fall of Donald Trump
  • I was There when Trump Lost Ohio
  • There’s no Business like Trump Business
  • The Art of the Loss
  • I was a Teenage Trump Staffer

As I understand it there’s a tradition of updating “I’ve Got A Little List” from “The Mikado” with contemporary topical references and I’m sure any producer would do that for Trump in a heartbeat. So you may get your wish to some extent. Here’s hoping. : )

Nonsense. His staff has failed him. Fire them all! A clean slate and a sprint to the finish, that’s the ticket.

Instead, aides told Trump’s surrogates to cast the debate as a success in which the candidate cemented his status as a political outsider.

Yeah…if it was a success then thats proof he doesnt need to do anymore debates b/c the “american people” know who he is and he shouldnt have to go before them again and again to make this point…

Actually, Bush the Younger and his administration gives us an all too recent example of the havoc wrecked by politicos who prefer their alternate realities, like the senior Bush aide who chided a group of journalists by saying that they were pitiable members of “the reality-based community” and so incapable of seeing the genius of the Bushies who were “making our own reality”. That administration was SOOO long ago!

“One of the delightful things about the Americans is that they have absolutely no historical memory.”
