Remember, people. Donald Trump couldn’t run a casino.
A casino. A business that exists so people can just walk in and give you lots of money all for the hopes of maybe walking out with somewhat less money. And he failed. Six fucking times. He literally had thousands of people handing him money for nothing every single day and he still fucking failed.
That is a level of fail I did not think was achievable by a functioning human being allowed to go outside without adult supervision. But there are somehow 80 million people in this fucking country that know that and are still saying “Yep, that’s our guy!”
Donald Trump failed at selling gambling, alcohol, and steaks.
To Americans.
It’s already been proven that if Trump had simply done nothing but let the inheritance he got from his father collect interest, he would be significantly more wealthy than he is now.
Which means all he had to do was nothing. Nothing. And somehow, he failed at that. The man failed at doing nothing.
Benefit of the doubt here, weren’t the casinos some criminal conspiracy to dodge taxes or sg?
No, just good old failing at business.
He was super over-leveraged and fucked himself over.
Yeah I never know with this guy if his stupidity or his criminality won any particular day.
Nah he was just stupid about it. He had one casino and built a new one in the same competing market. It was beyond stupid but he did it anyway. See decline https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Plaza_Hotel_and_Casino
Where the hell have they been? He’s been unfit to lead since 2015.
He’s less valuable to their bottom line now.
I take this as a sign that the swell of derision about their fawning attempts to shit on Biden with every minute of every working day has entered the mainstream and impinged on their consciousness
And, like a bunch of transparent dishonest hacks, they’re making the world’s most transparently dishonest hacky attempt to solve the problem
Great job guys, you’re gonna fool em with this one I think
Oh shit we forget to both sides this, quick put out a editorial.
now back to bashing Biden.
It’s a pointless thing to talk about because Trump’s support is locked in and there’s nothing anyone can do to push Trump out. His being unfit to lead is a feature to his supporters, not a bug.
There is, however, a slim chance that Biden may be able to be pressured out before august, so that’s really the only thing people should be focusing on until the convention is behind us.
That’s silly. Trump has lots of “Locked In” support, but not enough to win.
He only has enough to win against Biden.
Biden is so awful hes even starting to lose New York in some polls.
Turns out that Biden’s unconditional support for israel actually isn’t popular with the demographic he pretends to do it for.
When has he ever been fit?
Never which is sadly what qualifies him with the GOP
Did they just figure that out? I was thinking that back in 2015
He barely fits into people clothes.
He fit into the seat in Epstein’s plane just fine though.
More room in the row because of the children sitting next to him.
Pfft. He doesn’t plan to lead, or to serve. He plans to rule.
I agree but who the fuck cares what the NY Times says nowadays.
oh, gee, didn’t their editor just say that advocating for or defending democracy was a partisan act, and that he wouldn’t do it?
what’s all this, then?
Damage control for everyone who told Kahn he’s an idiot.
I’m gonna bet the up vote/down vote ratio between this story and the other from NYT calling for Biden to step down will be wildly different
I was just thinking that it’s nice to have a link to show that OP doesn’t exclusively post anti-Biden news
The 30 day ban for bad faith shilling has taught them to screen their propaganda with a little smoke, is all.
Why not block them if you think they’re propaganda?
Because then it goes unanswered. They don’t go away if blocked, they just spread the agenda without dissent.
Almost as if there was a concrete objective difference between the two candidates that would impact people’s assessment
It is not partisan to say it would be bad for a rabid chimpanzee to run the hospital
Where’s that one?
Oh so a single opinion piece vs the entire editor board. Totally not comparing apples to a field of oranges or anything
On Monday the paper’s editorial board also made Joe Biden the subject of a piece, in which it insisted that “that the best hope for Democrats to retain the White House is for him to step aside”, given that the president “continued to appear as a man in decline” following Biden’s disastrous debate against Trump in Atlanta last month.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Saluting Republicans that it said “pursued electoral power in service to solutions for such problems”, such as Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney, the Times board went on to say that “too many Republicans set aside their concerns about Mr Trump because of his positions on immigration, trade and taxes.
Trump was convicted on 34 criminal charges concerning hush-money payments to a porn star that a jury agreed were designed to interfere with the 2016 election.
Trump was impeached a second time for inciting an insurrection but Republican senators acquitted him, leaving him free to run for office.
Instead of a cogent vision for the country’s future, Mr Trump is animated by a thirst for political power: to use the levers of government to advance his interests, satisfy his impulses and exact retribution against those who he thinks have wronged him.
It added that while Democrats “are rightly engaged in their own debate about whether President Biden is the right person to carry the party’s nomination into the election, given widespread concerns among voters about his age-related fitness”, the importance of that debate was down to “legitimate concerns that Mr Trump may present a danger to the country, its strength, security and national character – and that a compelling Democratic alternative is the only thing that would prevent his return to power.
It said it was a “national tragedy that the Republicans have failed to … [set] aside their longstanding values” and ignoring what former Trump officials “have described as his systematic dishonesty, corruption, cruelty and incompetence”, and urged American voters to “perform a simple act of civic duty in an election year: listen to what Mr Trump is saying, pay attention to what he did as president and allow yourself to truly inhabit what he has promised to do if returned to office”.
The original article contains 779 words, the summary contains 308 words. Saved 60%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
They also declared Biden unfit to run. Which translates as imploring the high-minded liberal centrists they envisage their audience to be to stay home and sit this one out. Meanwhile, the MAGAts will be voting.
New York Times editorial board
So a bunch of pseudo-intellectuals? Lmao
Name one thing that Trump has ever done that would deem him unfit to lead? I bet it would be hard to name one.
Have you heard him speak?
Yeah, and he’s the only presidential candidate in this election, or ANY election for that matter, who has put even the slightest thought into my safety when it comes to electric boats vs. sharks. You can’t say that about Bernie, Hillary, Biden, Obama, or even James “Boatman Jim” Garfield.
Dude
You need to have some sort of award for this 😃
Ignore the haters, you’re doing the lord’s work son
It’s on account of how smart Trump’s genes are. Did you know his uncle went to MIT? Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if he were a liberal, if, like, OK, if he ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say he’s one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why he always starts off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know he has to give his like credentials all the time, because he’s a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers him — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; his uncle explained that to him many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, he would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.
OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know,
Wharton must really hate the fact that Donald Trump keeps sullying their reputation by reminding people that he graduated from there.
Yeah, and he’s the only presidential candidate in this election, or ANY election for that matter, who has put even the slightest thought into my safety when it comes to electric boats vs. sharks.
When nobody else got me, I know Electroboom got me.
-
He tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
-
Rampant corruption in his administration
-
Russian financial interests/Putin has him by the balls.
-
Sexual assault (sad this is so far down the list especially since we all knew before he was running)
-
Fascist talking points at his rallys.
-
IQ score is definitely sub 80s judging by his speeches.
-
He wears lifts in his shoes and diapers in his pants. Anyone that needs that much support for his ego and bowels has no place in the white house.
I could go on but I’m busy and I’m sure you won’t care either way.
Disqualified, you insolent buffoon. I requested one reason and you silly leftoids name 7 which clearly means you now have to vote for Trump.
What a predictable response from one of his supporters. I should’ve known you’d lose interest when you saw how many words were in front of you.
That fact that you can’t see that I’m joking is concerning.
Jokes from Trump humpers are typically thinly veiled dog whistles so you’ll have to excuse me for not giving you the benefit of the doubt.
I’m also not funny.
Hard disagree.
🎶Hello Poe’s Law, my old friend…🎶

Hahaha Hard to name just one, right?
Anyone can name 4 million reasons, but does anyone have the self-control to name just one?
His failure to meaningfully divest from his business interests coupled with the numerous times he used his office to funnel money to himself such as forcing the Secret Service to stay at Trump properties as he traveled.
There, one.
His failure to meaningfully divest from his business interests coupled with
You think you are so smart, but you’ve named TWO things he has done, thusly disqualifying your argument. I win.
Wtf I love Trump now!?
I learned debate from my uncle who is very smart and went to MIT.
I learned debate from cannibals that ate my uncle.
Lololol. I want to hear reasons why he is fit to lead anything.
He eats more Big Macs than most humans alive. So he’s a leader in that.
He was recently convicted of 34 felonies. Shit that’s 34 things! You’re right, this is impossible.
That’s as many as 3.4 tens. And that’s terrible.
He’s bankrupted something like 20+ different companies. Some of them were casinos for fuck sake. He failed to lead a business where people literally hand over money for entertainment.
"After the results of the 2020 United States presidential election determined U.S. president Donald Trump had lost, a scheme was devised by him, his associates and Republican Party officials in seven states to subvert the election by creating and submitting fraudulent certificates of ascertainment to falsely claim Trump had won the electoral college vote in those states.
It says it was fake right in the name. It’s clearly fake news.
Using the US military to prop up his failing golf course?
https://www.politico.com/story/2019/09/12/air-force-trump-scottish-resort-1493624
Openly bragged about assaulting women? Mocked a person at a rally for physical disabilities? Disparaged a gold star family? Bankrupted a casino? Advocated (by taking out pages in newspapers) for the incarceration of 5 black teenagers without due process? General racist remarks and behaviors? Credible sexual assault allegations from many women, including at least one of his wives? Cheated on his 3rd wife with a pornstar while she was pregnant?
Thats all before he was President, and off the top of my head, without any references or searching.
Would you like the list of shit he did while/after being President?
So, what you are saying is that you couldn’t name just one. Exactly my point. It was too hard to name just one.
Oh, I named just one. Each one of those is just one thing.
That’s mathin’
Have you ever seen someone drive 2 ways down a one way street? They’re always only going one way.
He’s a convicted felon. He also told people during COVID to ingest disinfectants. There’s a start.
That’s two things. I win.
Gr8 b8 m8. Got me gud.
