I hadn't seen Colbert's parody of Trump's announcement until now...

"So you would cut off business or impose tariffs unless they built the wall?"

"I would do something very severe unless they contributed or gave us the money to build the wall. I'd build it; I'd build it very nicely. I'm very good at building things."

Lol, what a fucking moron, but at least he's good at building things.

I'd fund him just to keep this circus going.

Buddy, his campaign music is a classic military standard.

Public reports routinely state great amounts of crime are being committed by illegal immigrants.

 

[NealMcCauley]

I gotta say, I do kind of agree w/ the whole Brian Williams thing. I know its completely irrelevant to the jargon Trump has been spewing, but why did they keep him around again?

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if NBC expected him to walk instead of taking the MSNBC deal. I imagine Williams's name is so tarnished he had no other job prospects.

 

[Trickster]

Stuff like this is cool to see. But the fact that he's so rich that it won't really mean anything kinda puts a dampener on my schadenfreude

I once, I think in the early Oughts, looked into Trump's money after he got super defensive when (Forbes?) some outlet reported he was not in fact a real billionaire and that the majority of his income actually came from shit like reality TV, instead of his businesses.

I wonder how true that is or still is?

Seems like he licenses his name for stuff he doesn't build, too.

Anyone have any insight?

Here are some details:

Funny thing. Carlos Slim could buy all his properties and still have cash left to buy them again at least a couple more times.

Trump suing NBC lol

http://deadline.com/2015/06/donald-trump-response-nbc-lawsuit-threat-brian-williams-1201461940/

Not surprising in the least.

I love how he writes. There's no planning to his words. He didn't make an outline. It's like a stream of consciousness. "NBC is stupid. Oh, but I quit first! But they still cheated. So I'll sue them. Because I'm honest! Oh, right, Brian Williams! Better cram him in there. Let's see how it looks....hm, good work Donny."

I like how you have him calling himself Donny.

I would like to wish everyone, including all haters and losers (of which, sadly, there are many) a truly happy and enjoyable Memorial Day!

I seriously hope there is Trump Palin ticket even before the primaries are done. They are the perfect pair and would destroy the Republican primary process with that waning star power.

 

[SpiralZilla]

This is the second thread in a row I've seen about NBC. What's happening over there?

 

[rokkerkory]

How about Trump and Jindal? That would be pretty epic and hilarious to see. Please do it.

Ridiculous overreaction, It makes me side with Trump, and i'm Mexican.

Political views aside, NBC should have cut ties with him the moment he announced he was running. You can't give a candidate free airtime on your network like that.

Hell, even Huckabee and FOX parted ways last year just because Huckabee was going to look into running.

GameGuru59 got banned, wanna fill his position?

 

[Damerman]

at least amy schummer was being ironic. trump is a fascist.

 

[DragonSworne]

Are the comments from his Presidential announcement or are there more comments from Trump more recently?

 

[Kibbles]

Wait--so he's no longer producer on Celebrity Apprentice, but are they going to continue the show?

If he is doing a presidential run surely he wouldn't be involved with the show anyway, right?

 

[ThePicard]

There is nothing racist about what trump said

“As has been stated continuously in the press, people are pouring across our borders unabated. Public reports routinely state great amounts of crime are being committed by illegal immigrants. This must be stopped and it must be stopped now.”

“We must have strong borders and not let illegal immigrants enter the United States,”

The fact that NBC has done this just proves they are lyers, and probably have been payed to do this, by one of trumps opponents.

This is not all that trump has said. Why are you doing this?

what else did he say, I thought it was based on what he said from his Presidential Announcement Speech.

They did -- as far as Trump's show (the apprentice) goes. This move is about them dumping Miss USA too

 

[Fenderputty]

So what about the part about them sending their bad people? Their murderers and rapists?

EDIT:

When do we beat Mexico at the border? They're laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. ... When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They are bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."

he said that good people come from mexico to.

I dont know maybe there are criminals coming from mexico illegally across the boarder in which case his statement is true and not racist, Just a fact.

 

[Oreoleo]

So is Trump the demographic Amy Schumer is trying to appeal to?

Good.

Didn't know GameGuru59 position was in such high demand.

Fuck right off.
What he said is completely racist and inappropriate.
Why do you think Univision and now NBC are cutting ties with him?
He's pandering to the bastards that believe and spew this type of hate. That's it.

 

[Nicktals]

No.

Picard would be disappointed.

His avatar is unfortunately the wrong picard for a fitting ava quote.

 

[Le_Samourai]

I don't see how it's an overreaction though.

In terms of Mrs. Universe, there are entrants from Central / South America. They literally have to do this since they're not only losing hosts, they will lose sponsors, and several countries will drop out otherwise. It's business.

As far as Celebrity Apprentice, it's really the same thing. TV / Movies are about image and making money. It's like arguing networks shouldn't sever ties with Cosby. Only worse here, since at least some of these ventures are directly targeting the peoples he made the comments about. They're directly tied to the production.

I mean overreaction to the whole thing, countries will drop? here in México people don't really care what he says, we are not that sensible.

It really bothers me the hypocrisy, here people are not too fond of immigrants either, the goverment deports more people than the US and if you think the border patrol in Arizona and Texas are bad, things in Chiapas are way way way worse, and nobody cares.

It bothers me that people are so easy to jump with intolerance against intolerants like is somehow better, and if someone is "offended" then heads must roll.

Trump can be a moron and say stupid things, but its not just about him, people like Tim Hunt or anyone else that are committing "thought crimes" shouldn't have their jobs/careers destroyed, only for dumb staments that influence nobody.

Instead of just ridiculing these people, now we are giving them validation, they are "dangerous people" and we need to isolate them.

Funny thing. Carlos Slim could buy all his properties and still have cash left to buy them again at least a couple more times.

Funny thing Slim its not well liked in México, he made his money from a a very convenient deal with the government, and offers overprice and bad quality services in what can only could be considered, till very recently at least, a monopoly.

Every race/ethnicity has an Uncle Ruckus.

GameGuru59 got banned, wanna fill his position?

Nice, insults and threats.

 

[Nicktals]

Nice, insults and threats.

What was the threat?

EDIT: I won't tolerate intolerance. That doesn't make me intolerant. It makes me a moderately OK person, on this topic, as opposed to an ignorant bigot.

EDITED: For brevity. So, in case you don't get it, and aren't being disingenuous on purpose, you can't state that immigrants are drug dealers, criminals, and rapists, while saying, mathematically, there are probably some decent Mexicans.

EDITED: For brevity.

Thank you

So basicly he is accusing the Mexican government of sending Mexican criminals to the US.

I can see why this would offend people, he could of worded a lot better. However he is accusing another country of doing a bad thing, but hes not saying 'because they are Mexicans they are bad. He is not being racist, but may come across as insulting.
