Donald Trump has so far been unable to obtain a bond that would allow him to appeal a $454 million judgment against him in a New York civil fraud case without posting the full amount himself, his lawyers said on Monday.

    I wonder if someone referred to him as an “unstable idiot” and he just said “NUH UH!” and reversed it while plugging his fingers in his ears

      That’s literally what happened. A book was published in which white house officials shared stories which questioned his mental fitness. The stable genius thing was from a series of tweets he sent attacking the book.

      “Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart,” the President continued. “Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star … to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius … and a very stable genius at that!”

      So much of this shit went down the memory hole, I worry a lot of voters won’t remember what it was like to live in that daily chaos.

        Can you imagine the chaos that must come out of TS now? Stupid shit spouted to masses of gullible cultists who must drink it up like it’s from the mouth of god. Gibberish, worship… is Trump Pentecostal?

      I don’t think anyone has ever said they were stable without being called unstable multiple times…

      Like, especially next to genius, no one brags about being stable except people who aren’t. It’s just not something stable people mention.

      Like if you meet someone and they immediately and umpromptly deny that they’re on LSD, it’s a pretty safe bet they’re tripping balls. Because why else even bring it up?

        I’ll have you know that not only am I not on LSD, I’m also not on speed, I didn’t just snort a line of coke, I don’t own a crack pipe that I keep in a shoe box, and everything I own doesn’t smell like weed.

        I’m not injecting anything right now, either.

          You uh … might want to slow it down there buddy. Pretty sure there’s a couple of those things that aren’t supposed to be combined.

            But I told you, I’m not huffing glue, and I definitely don’t have a funnel inserted into my rectum so beer can be poured into it.

            Definitely not.

      or perhaps when he’s in a room of horses, he’s the smart one.

        I hate to be a joke ruiner but I have seen horses operate latches and I have also seen Donald fail to operate an umbrella.

          Remember when he forgot how to drink out of a bottle? Good times.

          Also when he boarded Air Force One with toilet paper stuck to his foot? We should have known then.

            We all did know, the entire time. So do his cultists. Unfortunately tens of millions of white supremacists will elect an incompetent con man if it means hurting people they consider beneath them.

        Until he notices the horse with a placard saying, “Person, man, woman, TV, camera”, at which point he’ll know he needs to be on his A game. But look at all the horsies, his dad owns a stable full of the fastest horses and the hardest workers, too. You wouldn’t believe how fast one of his horses could plow a field.
