My understanding is that the device was a good one. Its timing was just bad. Cisco had a strangle hold on the desktop, and smart phones were just coming into their own.
Thus there was an opening for an MLM to try to move some product inventory, but that isnt what an MLM is about, especially one that Trump is involved in.

I dunno, that seems like awful sophisticated thinking for trump. I think it was probably just the first one that came to mind (or what's left of his, anyway).pipistrelle wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 11:08 am I wondered if he used "electric chair" so he couldn't be accused of a threat (since I assumed it's an outmoded form of execution). Looked it up, at least as far as Wikipedia.
As of 2022, the only places that still reserve the electric chair as an option for execution are the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Arkansan and Oklahoman laws provide for its use should lethal injection ever be held to be unconstitutional.

He's back at the old game again.
1,200% Match. Where do these these match funds come from? Oh, they don't cause they don't exist.

The 1200% match actually means we are setting you up to make this an autobill monthly contribution and it will take you a year to get it stopped.

Or he is taking your money and reporting it as a donation of 12 times what you payed, in order to look good to the press.

A couple years ago the "X MATCH" pitch was all the rage in political donation begging and I think that I wasn't the only one asking "who is doing the matching here?" and people started asking inconvenient questions.
It also, like a lot of things in conspiracy land, children's stories and such, had to grow to remain believable, so what started out as "All contributions matched" became "Matched X3" and then "X5" and now, as you can see, it's "X12". We are near the stage where in order to be outrageous enough to keep the rubes on the hook, Aliens will have to become part of the storyline.

Has any one person every had so many cases heard by the Supreme Court?
I mean, FFS look at the gaslighting just on this one thing, that every attempt at accountability is a thing that must be litigated all the way to the Supreme Court.
Give them a break, Cheeolini, they need to take a minute to strip people of their rights and keep Harvard Yard safe for white folks.

Nah, standard procedure for this sort of request. Fairly short briefing schedule, followed by a fast decision in the weekly orders. Similar to how Graham’s petition was handled.
Notably, this puts any legal decision after the election, which moots any concerns Trump raised (rightly or wrongly, I’d say the latter) about legal wrangling during an election. That’s probably good for the sane parts of the electorate, since we really don’t need or want a “witch hunt” decision motivating the trumptards to the polls.

I get that, but tfg just delays, delays, delays, and I don't believe these tactics would work for, say, me.

I haven’t looked at the crime stats (besides seeing an occasional graph indicating we are no where near peak 1993-4 crime), but from what I gather, violent crime is now higher (per capita) in rural areas and small towns than in big cities. This is a big deal and needs to be publicized since the current narrative of the right wing is that the big (generally Democratic) cities are so crime ridden that one can’t walk down the street.

Trump Threatens To Sue The Pulitzer Prize Board For Defamatory Refusal To Revoke A Prize
Somehow, it's even dumber than we expected.
By LIZ DYE
October 20, 2022 at 6:42 PM
We regret to inform you that Donald Trump is back on his bullshit.
Not that he was ever off his bullshit, of course. But the former president is once again threatening to sue the Pulitzer Prize Board for refusing to rescind the 2018 prizes awarded to the New York Times and Washington Post for their coverage of the investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to Russian electoral interference.
This isn’t exactly a new hobby for the nation’s most vexatious litigant. In November of 2021, his nutball lawyer Alina Habba sent the Board a “spoiliation” letter demanding that it claw back the honors bestowed on the media outlets.
“By failing to remove these statements, revoke the award, or even publicly comment on the illegitimate nature of the works, the Pulitzer Prize Board is actively advancing the false narrative contained therein and promoting defamatory statements against our client,” she huffed.
Then in June 2022, Trump sent a letter himself, pointing to the doomed Sussmann indictment and bizarrely the DOJ Inspector General’s report which found that the FBI investigation was appropriately predicated as evidence that the media outlets had simply been out to smear him in cahoots with the Clinton campaign.

If, say, his PAC ponies up to pay the settlement, would it show up in any financial statements?
