So the guy who thinks he and he alone can fix the world, and that foreign leaders admire and fear him cannot (1) hire a campaign competent with the simplest contingencies, (2) cannot stick through any interview that asks him about things he did, let alone a hostile interview, (3) cannot find and maintain staffers nor cabinet members who won’t betray him for being ignorant and unhinged.
Inb4 hang mic pence
He didn’t play music this time?
“and now…racist shitbag music.”
Kid rock covers Ave Maria?
Proper soundcheck + mic 2 and I’ve never had more than 15 seconds of dead time in past 10 years.
Looks like they had a second mic, but it didn’t work either
My money is on someone pulling the plug mid speech
But you know, you, you get paid.
As a 20+ year audio professional, the only way this happens is an engineer that either doesn’t know what they’re doing at all (so not a pro) or they aren’t getting paid enough and are very vindictive.
Literally thousands of open mic nights across the country run by teenagers getting paid nothing do a better job of preparing that this.
I applaud whoever fucked this up cause honestly, fuck that guy.
Why waste money on a pro when the deputy campaign manager’s cousin, who is very big in the audio, can do it for campaign merch and free soda?
i call BS. i think the dude is worn out and milking the campaign trail for what it’s worth. we both know that there’s no way any professional sound crew would ever let this happen.
20 minutes to find a second mic? Or move the connection to a different input.
Sounds about right for the people Trump hires.
The sound tech probably didn’t have it on.
Sometimes you wind up working gigs you wouldn’t want to. Easy to make mistakes.
Or you haven’t been paid…
Not getting paid is rather demotivating, yes.
“Mistakes” happen when you lack motivation…
Reminds me of a gig I had in a studio where the lead singer was a real jerk to everyone in the studio and to his band-mates, he kept berating everyone in the band, telling them to play better, and when it was his turn to record vocals, I pitch shifted his monitor a half note :-) Watching him squirm in the vocal-booth trying to hit a note was priceless.
That.
that’s just beautiful. Kind of evil. but beautiful.
Billy Corgan never recovered from that one.
Despite all my rage, I’m still just a rat in a cage.
Probably hard to find a good sound guy that’ll work for free.
I’m sure if he asked a local evangelical church, they’d loan up their sound guys. You know. Gotta help the antichrist out.
Comrade Mic Guy
I mean seeing how he has probably pissed off just about every theater kid living by now it’s just deserts. Nobody is racing down from the booth with a lav for this guy.
“Only the best”
“I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company,” he said. “I won’t pay the bill, and then we’ll have a story that Trump didn’t pay the bill to a contractor.”
If you don’t want a reputation for screwing over contractors then you should pay your damn contractors. But we all know Trump would’ve just made up a reason to stiff them even if everything went smoothly.
But I do find it amusing that he’s this close to figuring out why his mic didn’t work in the first place. Good contractors have options and won’t work for a known dead beat. So all he can get are incompetent fools.
He never pays ANY of his bills. How many cities have ended up getting stuck with unpaid bills for his stupid fucking circlejerk events?
This is a common tactic the rich use all the time. They even hire people to contest valid charges because it often works. They are literally why we can’t have nice things. “So much winning” but they have to cheat and lie about everything.
It’s disproportionately the rich who refund uber eats meals that were perfectly fine and shit like that.
It happens on business all the time as well. Huge company hires small company to outsource whatever, with the promise of more work if this project goes well, then they end up being a nightmare to work for, with impossible deadlines and constantly changing requirements.
Small company ends up underwater on the project and the guy that outsourced it gets a promotion for getting it done under budget.

If there’s no show at all, or it’s completely ruined, then you have them cancel the bill. You don’t just refuse to pay and stop picking up the phone. That’s childish and we know he doesn’t pay bills even when he gets everything he asked for, just more gaslighting.
Plus when I hire someone for a price and they do a meh but ok job, i pay them and never hire them again. That’s how the free market works, at least in theory. He doesn’t see we can’t just “not pay our bill” when my internet goes down for a few hours. Normal people get fucked by that, he doesn’t know what normal is. Weird they don’t even realize they’re saying the quiet part out loud.
No, no - “free market” means I don’t have to pay, because it’s free.
“Failed mic.”
Yea, easy conspiracy. He can’t speak for long periods of time, so manufacture sound issues.
I like mics that didn’t fail.
“Mic the loser” they call him.
Didn’t want to do another impromptu concert?
Aaaaaaaaveeeee Mariiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
big energy fascist would have been screaming into a bullhorn. you’re losing it donny.
Now he’s got a reason not to pay for the event.
Finally, after nearly 20 minutes, an aide brought Trump a replacement microphone that worked.
“I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company,” he said. “I won’t pay the bill, and then we’ll have a story that Trump didn’t pay the bill to a contractor.”
Might be the only truthful thing trump said during the event
Hope he hated it.
I too want to give my business to Trump Media And TECHNOLOGY company. Only the best
