Whatever. That dude's from Colorado. He was probably a Democrat pretending to be a Republican.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I said Brexit was going to pass. Don’t forget, Obama said that U.K. will go to the back of the line, and I talked about Sweden, and may have been somewhat different, but the following day, two days later, they had a massive riot in Sweden, exactly what I was talking about, I was right about that.

But even in that Sweden quote, you said look at what happened on Friday in Sweden. But you are now saying you were referring to something that happened the following day.

No I am saying I was right. I am talking about Sweden. I’m talking about what Sweden has done to themselves is very sad, that is what I am talking about. That is what I am talking about. You can phrase it any way you want. A day later they had a horrible, horrible riot in Sweden and you saw what happened. I talked about Brussels. I was on the front page of the New York Times for my quote. I said Brussels is not what it used to be, very sad what has happened to Brussels. I was absolutely lambasted. A short time later they had the major attack in Brussels. One year ago today. Exactly one year ago today. And then people said you know Trump was right. What am I going to tell you? I tend to be right. I’m an instinctual person, I happen to be a person that knows how life works. I said I was going to win the election, I won the election, in fact I was number one the entire route, in the primaries, from the day I announced, I was number one. And the New York Times and CNN and all of them, they did these polls, which were extremely bad and they turned out to be totally wrong, and my polls showed I was going to win. We thought we were going to win the night of the election.

So when you…

And then TIME magazine, which treats me horribly, but obviously I sell, I assume this is going to be a cover too, have I set the record? I guess, right? Covers, nobody’s had more covers.

I think Richard Nixon still has you beat. But he was in office for longer, so give yourself time.


Ok good. I’m sure I’ll win.

It's easy to have that confidence when Russia is rigging the election for you.

Trump: I inherited a mess, I inherited a mess in so many ways. I inherited a mess in the Middle East, and a mess with North Korea, I inherited a mess with jobs, despite the statistics, you know, my statistics are even better, but they are not the real statistics because you have millions of people that can’t get a job, ok. And I inherited a mess on trade. I mean we have many, you can go up and down the ladder. But that’s the story. Hey look, in the mean time, I guess, I can’t be doing so badly, because I’m president, and you’re not. You know. Say hello to everybody OK?

I get the divergent ideologies in the Republican Party right now, but this really should not be as hard as it seems to be for Trump. He's a President, at the time in his presidency when he's going to have the most clout and capital to spend, with a Republican House and a Republican Senate, trying to do the thing that got many of those representatives elected.

It's highly problematic because it strongly biases public opinion without full understanding of the evidence in order to achieve political goals.
Pretty sure we got that obvious point.
Doesn't really seem like it, but sure.
I have probable news from anonymous sources that indicate possible info that might lead to Hillary's arrest. Also, she might be an android/dinosaur hybrid. Maybe.

Every year the local Boy Scout Troop here does a Touch a Truck event where you pay 5 bucks and your kid can climb on all sorts of trucks and emergency vehicles. Maybe we can expect Trump this year.
