If a contestant on The Apprentice performed like Trump at his press confab, he'd be instantly fired [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.', 'Daily Kos Staff Emeritus'] Date: 2024-08-08 In the old days before radio, TV, and instant internet communications, carnival barkers and snake oil salesmen could get away with offering up the same lucrative malarkey in town after town with nobody catching on. But Donald Trump has been hammering us for nearly a decade with the same. tedious. incoherent. lies. Fans and foes alike have heard them all. It’s now just a droning buzz whatever venue he’s in. He was at it again today at his press conference. Just one fabrication after another, from his crowd sizes vs. Kamala Harris’s to the supposed decline of abortion as an important issue in the election despite that for sure in 6 states and potentially in 11, abortion will literally be on the ballot. He asserted that Oct. 7 and Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, and Iran’s regional meddling would never have happened, carefully avoiding the fact that, as a direct result of Trump withdrawing from the multi-country nuclear deal, Iran is now closer than it’s ever been to being quickly able to build nuclear weapons. And on and on and on. MAGAs oughta stage a protest at one of these hoedowns: “We demand fresh lies!” “No four more years until we get at least four more lies!” [END] --- [1] Url: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/8/8/2261717/-If-a-contestant-on-The-Apprentice-performed-like-Trump-at-his-press-confab-he-d-be-instantly-fired?pm_campaign=front_page&pm_source=trending&pm_medium=web Published and (C) by Daily Kos Content appears here under this condition or license: Site content may be used for any purpose without permission unless otherwise specified. via Magical.Fish Gopher News Feeds: gopher://magical.fish/1/feeds/news/dailykos/
