Unless it means he survived the COVID calamity that he actively contributed to, only to be raped to death in prison. I would accept that.

Quote : | "Speaking at the Black Conservative Federation Gala in Columbia, S.C., Friday night, former President Donald Trump made a series of inflammatory comments about Black voters, including suggesting that Black voters support him because of his criminal indictments, that they have "embraced" his mug shot and that he could only see Black people in the audience because of how bright the stage lights were.
"Black people are so much on my side now because they see what's happening to me happens to them," Trump said about his various indictments. "Does that make sense?"

I'll "admit" to it. Why not admit to it? Anyone who seriously thinks that much less of you for voting Trump over Joe Biden isn't anyone I care to look good to.
I'm voting for him, even though I don't think any president can do what they want to do because of the unelected political class, but I'd rather have Trump than a career politician.
Most important to me is smaller offices and local stuff... state and federal legislators, district attorneys, school board, city council, county commissioners etc... i'm actually probably all in this time and voting straight republican unless they will vote against my issues.
I'm sure as hell not gonna sit around and play "default democrat" this election while crime runs wild and all the stores slowly leave. To hell with this knee-jerk bail reform nonsense and all the rest of it. 3/24/2024 2:30:54 PM |

We shouldn't even have an election at all since the fascist ass far right Supreme Court voted 9-0 to not let states take blumpf off the ballot. Ugh.
If Biden's plan to copy Putin and put his opposition in prison fails, he should take a page from Zelenskyys playbook and get involved in a war and indefinitely postpone the election.
We can't let democracy prevail. Obsessed journalists and people who are literally on pills because of what they hear on CNN are the only people who deserve the right to vote. 3/24/2024 11:23:46 PM |

I assume you are trolling, but it's not at all difficult to see how a second Trump term would be a lot worse than the first. Four years older and more brain-rotted. A Supreme Court stacked in his favor. An increasingly compliant and loyal Republican Congress. Pre-selected loyalist cabinet members and staff. A long list of people perceived to have wronged him. No concern for showing any restraint to enable the possibly of another term. If you don't see these things, you aren't paying attention. Listen to the multitude of people who have worked for him and observed his worst instincts. I would vote for almost anyone else before voting for Trump. 3/25/2024 1:21:30 AM |

^Not at all. I just meant that during his first term, he likely curbed some of his worst impulses just a little with a view toward earning a second term. If he manages to get elected to a second term, any possible protection from that safeguard is gone. Basically a 4-year lame duck with little concern about reigning anything in. 3/25/2024 11:19:45 AM |

Then some enterprising folks started selling merch and "drop reading" videos on patreon being a laywayy and it kinda turned into a grift.

Well with Boeing I think it's more of damaging corporate culture and business models in general. Same thing as we're seeing in most publicly traded companies except... these are planes
But it does come back to regulation... the loosening of publicly traded stuff in the 80s.
But the same way, I can't help but also love how awful this system is. It is in a way, peak America. Always on the frontier. If you get it you get it 3/27/2024 8:21:39 PM |

Quote : | "Former 'Apprentice' producer Bill Pruitt tells all on the Trump he knew
Bill Pruitt can draw a straight line from Donald Trump’s time as the star of the TV show “The Apprentice” to Trump’s political career.
Pruitt, a producer on the first two seasons of the show, wrote an essay for Slate, detailing his experiences working with the former president on the hugely successful reality show.
WBUR is a nonprofit news organization. Our coverage relies on your financial support. If you value articles like the one you're reading right now, give today.
Pruitt had been unable to write or talk about his time on the show for the past two decades: He and other producers had to sign nondisclosure agreements with serious financial penalties if they were broken. That NDA lapsed recently, paving the way for Pruitt to write about his time working with Trump. Pruitt says the show created an aura around Trump that proved instrumental in propelling him to the White House.
“He was not, by any stretch, a successful New York real estate tycoon like we made him out to be,” he says. “We needed to legitimize Donald Trump as someone who all these young, capable people would be clamoring over one another trying to get a job working for.”
The ‘con’ – as Pruitt puts it – worked: The finale of the first season attracted over 28 million viewers. The Apprentice series spanned 15 seasons and led to multiple spin-off shows, including a British version hosted by UK billionaire Alan Sugar.
“Early on, [Trump] felt that he was above it all, in terms of this reality show that he had agreed to lend his name to,” says Pruitt. But Trump’s skepticism did not last long. “He recognized the show could elevate his brand.”
Not only did the series launch Trump to a new level of national stardom and ultimately the White House – it created celebrities from its contestants, including former Trump Administration political aide Omarosa Newman and many of the show’s winners. Trump’s older children became close advisors on the show too, and celebrities flocked to the program as contestants and guest board members.
But Pruitt says even from that first season there were signs of an off-camera Trump who was very different than the one the show presented to the world.
Early indicators included issues with how Trump managed his job as host of the show.
“We always hoped that within the confines of the constrictions we had for him that he would basically be able to just deliver the informational aspects of his job of hosting on camera thoroughly and clearly and concisely,” Pruitt says. “He couldn't.”
There were other challenges, too.
“You would see Donald Trump just go off on somebody — he would be impulsive,” Pruitt says, “and he would be railing against somebody out of nowhere.”
Pruitt’s most damning allegation is that Trump used a racist slur when discussing reasons to not select contestant Kwame Jackson as the first winner of the Apprentice series – who was up against eventual season one winner Bill Rancic.
"Trump said, [...] but, would America buy - and used the N-word - winning?"
“We just swiftly moved past that,” Pruitt says. “No one said anything. No one walked out of the room, which I think most of us wish we had.”
Pruitt added that since his article was published, other producers from the show’s history have come to him with further allegations of Trump uttering racial slurs and more.
“A female production designer has shared with me about some of the misogynistic things she had to put up with from Trump,” he says.
The Trump campaign has refuted the allegation and other statements by Pruitt in his interview with Here & Now and in his Slate article.
In a statement, Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung said that they were “completely fabricated accusations,” adding people were “bringing up old fake stories from the past because they are desperate.”
Thomas Danielian produced and edited this interview for broadcast with Micaela Rodriguez. Danielian also adapted it for the web.
