The dishonest media does not report that any money spent on building the Great Wall (for sake of speed), will be paid back by Mexico later!

38. Exactly my thought.

[Cha]

2. You mean the first Lie Tweeted of the day?

Jeeeze.. ever feel you're in grade school mocking the guy who thinks he's all that but so full of shite?

The "dishonest media" that bends over backwards trying to normalize him? I like it when they're in a ******* food fight.

[bdamomma]

52. the dishonest media?????

he keeps on saying this to brainwash people not to believe the news on reports of intelligence coming in about the hacking of the election.

master con artist.

[Cha]

60. I know.. it's the masterbater, manipulator, svengali

Webs of Lies and Deceit.. Too bad we have such a chickenshit m$m that's too craven and cowardly to call out his shit.

Except for those online.. and Joy Reid.

Yes, they are only allowed to believe the all powerful poot poodle!

[bravenak]

3. LOL

6. That "movement" left a big turd in the crapper. Thanks, crosscheck and related VS

[lamp_shade]

10. Speaking of movements...

[Cha]

12. Dump needs a BIg Bowel MOVEMENT he's so full of Shit... who

wouldn't be surprised if he tweets some shit when he's suppose to be swearing in?

TAking a stupid swipe @ President Obama?

[Hortensis]

45. He's sounding defensive in general.

Wonder what got under his skin. And, as always, how he's going to behave once he's sworn in.

[barbtries]

64. i wonder

if he'll still be tweeting lies about the election after a few months or years in office.
or will his bad acts catch up with him? Nixon fell. maybe trump will too. question is how much damage can he do before then, and it's so much. he's already done so much.

[hedda_foil]

84. I think he's nervous and tweeting calms him down momentarily.

[no_hypocrisy]

7. Freudian projection

Trump's being dishonest. He knows there's no way to make Mexico reimburse any expenses dedicated to or paid for the wall.

[Arkansas Granny]

8. And now he's taunting Dems about losing the election, again.

https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump

I guess his fans never get tired of the derision and hate. Do you think he'll lead a "lock her up chant" during his inaugural speech?

[Kittycow]

13. Like Keith O. said "Who DOES that? "

...still harping over winning the election weeks and weeks ago.

"Somethings wrong with him. "

[justhanginon]

53. Not "somethings wrong with him", Every things wrong with him!

[Hortensis]

55. Simpler glory days? :) After all, a dream presidency would be

all indoor rallies, where his hair stayed in place while he humiliated, fired, and threatened to jail people and attack nations for the cameras while thousands of adoring idiots cheered.

Likely reality is turning out to be unpleasantly different, even if he does still spend most of his time watching cable talk shows while others discuss policy.

[Cha]

14. I just asked up thread if anyone would be surprised if he starting

tweeting shite when he was being sworn in?

Taking a stupid swipe at President Obama and or Hillary?

[bdamomma]

33. he maybe doing that instead of putting

his hand on the bible unless his hand burns when he does.

[Cha]

36. I wouldn't put it past him.. nothing is too stupid for that monster.

[bdamomma]

73. Cha

I have read this whole interview on another thread god it is chilling.

David Cay Johnston writer just wrote a book on The Making of Donald Trump.
This is the interview with Democracy Now. It is chilling. I am posting this article by mail to my Senator in RI.

This man/child is a homegrown terrorist and bully.

[TubbersUK]

35. I'd be surprised if he didn't n/t

[Cha]

39. I know, right? Wonder if his handlers are worried? Should

they say something to him and risk giving him ideas.. or assume he' going to do it anyway so take the chance of trying to talk him out of it?

We already know it's just a big gaudy show to him.. he'll want to rile his fans up with some hate and viciousness.

[Cha]

9. Trump's "dishonest media"---shades of "Lugenpresse"

In the OP's link, two of Trump's tweets in the past 24 hours have derided the "dishonest media." This is a not subtle translation of a German term with a very ugly history....
https://www.washingtonpost.com/pwa/?utm_term=.1987400386fa#https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/10/24/the-ugly-history-of-luegenpresse-a-nazi-slur-shouted-at-a-trump-rally/

"BERLIN — When a video of two Donald Trump supporters shouting “Lügenpresse” (lying press) started to circulate Sunday, viewers from Germany soon noted its explosive nature. The defamatory word was most frequently used in Nazi Germany. Today, it is a common slogan among those branded as representing the “ugly Germany”: members of xenophobic, right-wing groups.

Its use across the Atlantic Ocean at a Trump rally has worried Germans who know about its origins all too well. Both the Nazi regime and the East German government made use of it, turning it into an anti-democracy slogan.


“Lügenpresse” was branded a taboo word in Germany in 2015 by an academic panel after anti-Islam movements, such as Pegida, started using it more frequently in the presence of journalists. As in the United States, trust in mainstream media is on the decline in Germany.

The verbal attacks against journalists soon turned into physical violence in Germany. At times, media members were unable to cover the Pegida-organized protest marches without private security personnel. Some reporters who risked going in without bodyguards were beaten up. It is without doubt that the word “Lügenpresse” has an extremely ugly meaning in modern-day Germany.

Its history is even worse, though.

The term emerged way before the Nazis took over in Germany. For instance, the German Defense Ministry released a book titled “The Lügenpresse of Our Enemies” in 1918 during World War I. According to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper, the term was coined by Reinhold Anton in 1914. In books, Anton used the term mainly in a foreign context to refer to “enemy propaganda.” It is unclear whether Anton was a pseudonym.

At that time, the word was used more descriptively. A decade later, it had turned into an explosive and stigmatizing propaganda slogan, used to stir hatred against Jews and communists. Critics of Adolf Hitler's regime were frequently referred to as members of the “Lügenpresse apparatus.”

Until today, the word has an anti-Semitic connotation, and it implies hatred not only against journalists but against everyone who opposes the “will of the people.” That abstract concept emerged during World War II when Hitler sought to propagate the idea that Germans were a "master race" superior to all others, especially Jews and Slavic people.

The consequences of that rhetoric — of which the term “Lügenpresse” was an important component under propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels — were horrifying. Millions of people were killed in concentration camps by the Nazis, including Jews, political opponents and homosexuals....."

-------------

I suppose we shouldn't be terribly surprised, given Trump's close affiliation with white supremacists and neo-Nazis, but he sure as hell should not be given a pass on this.

[canetoad]

11. Stop right there

And think.

The Wall. DFTs great diversion. One of the most emotive issues of the moment.

From what is he trying to deflect attention.

Ya know, if I was trump and wanted to create a shitstorm of diversion, I'd sit on the toilet and tweet all night.

[muriel_volestrangler]

16. The problem is, he's got so many things he might want to divert attention from

A truly criminal set of people nominated for his cabinet and other posts. A party trying to work out how to abolish Obamacare and blame the Democrats. An intelligence service that says Putin helped him win the election, and which he wants to shut up. Massive conflicts of interest about his business dealings and government.

[lamp_shade]

15. I wonder what he means by this.......

Donald J. Trump ?@realDonaldTrump 7m7 minutes ago
Hopefully, all supporters, and those who want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will go to D.C. on January 20th. It will be a GREAT SHOW!

[bdamomma]

40. you know he

speaks in code. All supporters???? and it be a great show???? he thinks this is a fucking show???

He just keeps spewing up crap.

Again, he is TOTALLY UNFIT, UNSTABLE AND NOT COMPETENT TO HOLD OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nolabear]

80. Apparently that followed his diss of The Apprentice. He's mad about celebs not loving him.

That whole "swamped" thing smacks of being his "deplorables." HE'LL have the best show, the really great show. Not like that pitiful non-Donald show that nobody watched because it wasn't Donald.

[Vinca]

17. Shut up, Donald and get ready for school.

This . . . is . . . so . . . embarrassing.

[1965Comet]

18. Payback

"The dishonest media does not report that any money spent on building the Great Wall (for sake of speed), will be paid back by Mexico later! "

Trump's next tweet: "paid back just like I paid back all of my creditors on time and in full!!!1!"

[Va Lefty]

23. K & R!

Welcome to DU!

[SammyWinstonJack]

19. Oh STFU you DISHONEST POS! Why does the media continue

to take this abuse and bullying from DT? Is it all for show?

[bdamomma]

41. The media???

they are accomplices in this crime.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

43. curious because he is Exec Producer. Wouldn't he want the show to

succeed. Nope - his ego trumps his clear thinking.

Or - he wants us Dems to start watching. I actually liked the show - watching human nature in competition. But wasn't going to watch because he was EP.

[spinbaby]

20. And this one leaves me baffled

"Wow, the ratings are in and Arnold Schwarzenegger got "swamped" (or destroyed) by comparison to the ratings machine, DJT. So much for...."

What the hell is the boob talking about?

[lamp_shade]

21. the rest.....

Donald J. Trump ?@realDonaldTrump 2m2 minutes ago
being a movie star-and that was season 1 compared to season 14. Now compare him to my season 1. But who cares, he supported Kasich & Hillary

[spinbaby]

24. Still don't know what he's talking about

What does Arnold have to do with anything?

[lamp_shade]

25. Could be he's trying to keep the door open in case he needs his old Apprentice slot back again.

[seaglass]

32. Plus he is still Executive Producer so lower ratings less money. n/t

[bdamomma]

46. but tRump is

still receiving money isn't he. Oh his two golf courses are opening in Dubai too.

This guy has committed so many conflicts of interest. Where is his Tax returns also??? Another topic swept under the rug.

Just go arrest him please.

[librechik]

74. he doesn't even know how to do his actual job--god help us

[SammyWinstonJack]

26. The Apprentice, Ahmold is the host. Guessing DT suggesting he

was a much better host than Ahnold...Being a child again, are we Donald?

[Tanuki]

28. Arnold took over as host of the new season of Trump's old Apprentice TV show.

Trump is such a pathetic narcissist that even though he is the President-elect, he has to embarrass himself and the entire country by crowing over the fact that his ratings (if nothing else) were bigger than Arnold's. Just when you think he can't be any more appallingly shallow and stupid....

[TommyCelt]

58. Bigger ratings....

....but MUCH smaller hands.

[kickitup]

30. He is insane!

[Cha]

44. I think ******* dump cares that schwartz supported Kasich and Hillary

[Tanuki]

22. What a petty, small minded popinjay. With all the problems facing

our country and the world, this conceited attention-whore thinks anybody besides himself cares about the size of his TV ratings? Apparently this is yet another way he compensates for having such tiny hands.

[TubbersUK]

27. He's on a rampage:

Presumably looking to distract from the security briefing.

[bdamomma]

49. from election night

[TubbersUK]

50. Election night

when the Dem firework display was cancelled.

Trump has brought it up several times since.

He seems obsessed by it.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

70. How odd. Seems a natural course of action to cancel. You

might say HA HA - but a normal person wouldn't remember it after that

get a tax rebate check?

[BeyondGeography]

Love!

[Va Lefty]

37. Dishonest Donald's wall downgraded to a fence. Sad!

[Docreed2003]

42. The lies have gotten so thick they're laughable

Estimates are that "the wall", if built according the specs from the Bush era bill they are counting on to make this happen are one billion dollars, and that is for a glorified barbed wire fence essentially. If they build an actual concrete wall, costs will be astronomically higher. The "Mexico will pay us back" line of crap sounds remarkably close to "Iraqi oil fields will pay for this war". Sadly, too many Americans will sit there and lap this shit up because it's coming from a Republican. We have no money for Chip or food stamps, or Medicare/Medicaid, or Obamacare, or Planned Parenthood, or infrastructure, etc...BUT we can come up with a minimum of a billion dollars to fund a wall we don't need. The absolute cold heartedness wrapped in the cloak of fisical responsibility of the GOP is astounding and they've corrupted the minds of millions of Americans to fall in line with their dismantling of our social fabric.

[bdamomma]

51. he is no Republican

he is a fascist.........among other things.

[Docreed2003]

59. Oh I agree...

But the average American voter doesn't realize that because they couldn't tell you what a fascist was if you gave them a multiple choice quiz and an open book test. We are where we are, in large part, due to the lack of meaningful education in this country. Again, thanks GOP.

[bdamomma]

81. those of us who have a brain

will be the only ones to save ourselves from this very sick man.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="

DONALD J. TWITTER

CHORUS
Hey, Kellyanne, give me my phone
I'm gonna need some time alone
You know I always do my best work on the shitter
And I don't need Meet the Press or my own Gettysburg Address
When I can climb upon my throne
And get on Twitter

VERSE
Let’s go to @realdonaldtrump
Where my old brain can take a dump
And talk about the issues of the day
From pathetic SNL to amazing Israel
When I'm on the stump
Just watch me fire away

You know it's anybody's guess
As to when some global mess
Is gonna overwhelm my short attention span
Oh, but I'll be there to tweet; I've gotta give my base red meat
That is unless
I switch to Instagram

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE
Well, my favorite way to tweet
Is to pick on some elite
And call him lots of kindergarten names
If he's a third-rate loser clown, well, that’s the way I’ll take him down
Just bring the heat
Until he goes up in flames

And women ain't immune
From the wrath of this tycoon
I’ve got 140 characters of hate
So if some beauty queen gets fat, I don't grab her by the cat
I just lampoon
Her ever-changing weight

REPEAT CHORUS 2X

[meow2u3]

82. Welcome to DU

Good and funny song!

[Blue State Cowboys]

86. Thank You

Thank you. I wrote that song on January 1 and I recorded it on January 2. Writing songs about Trump has become a coping mechanism for me. Feel free to share the tune.

[barbtries]

63. who believes this shit?!

what's he going to do, start a war with them? asshole. at times like this i still cannot believe it's actually happened and he's going to be president.

[Bengus81]

65. He's now Tweeting about his em..."former" TV show and the Gropenator??

This ASSHAT claims to be our President in just two weeks??

[Feeling the Bern]

69. and the republicans will gladly polish that turd.

[Javaman]

71. his grift is unraveling. nt

[ehrnst]

72. They'll just say that it didn't meet their standards, and that he can sue them for payment. Right?

[MFM008]

76. Fuck him

[erpowers]

78. Blame the Next Guy

I assume Donald Trump, if the wall does get built and is paid for by taxpayer money, will just blame the next President, especially if Trump is not elected to a second term. I guess he will claim the next President is to blame because the next guy/girl was not strong enough to force Mexico to pay the money it owed the United States. If he is not elected to a second term he will claim he would have made Mexico pay for the wall in his second term.

If the wall does get built and Americans taxpayers have to pay for the structure the Democratic Party should not let the Republican Party off the hook for the debt that will follow. It seems like the Trump Administration could be a real debt ridden Administration. Possibly billions to pay for a wall. Then $1 trillion added to the debt by the repeal of the Affordable Care Act. Next, billions more taken from the hand of consumers due to the increased amount of out of pocket spending that will occur as a result of the Affordable Care Act. The possible decrease in consumer spending due to the increase in out of pocket spending on medical care.

If Team Trump is only going to use American Taxpayer money to pay for the building of the wall for the "sake of speed" why not just wait until Mexico agrees to pay for the wall before building the wall. I thought Trump said he could force Mexico to pay for the building of the wall. I thought he said he was a really good business man who knew how to negotiate these types of things.

[louis-t]

79. And the suckers will believe it!

The great wall of trump.

[tibbiit]

85. This guy is a drunk

He and his enablers claim he doesn't drink! Ive never met an alcoholic who doesn't lie to themselves and others, about the drink. His behavior is the old saying... if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's a duck. He is obviously a practicing and happily obsessed alcoholic. Some people say!
tib

I don't care what he or anyone else says... that he doesn't drink... the evidence that he does is right in our faces every early morning he starts this bullshit.

[Blaukraut]

87. So when is he going to claim his twitter acct was hacked again?

Seems that the latest tweets don't sound any different from the ones yesterday that were supposedly from a hacker.
