Utopia Talk / Politics / Trump interview on HBO

Im better then you rank	Tue Aug 04 06:35:02 2020 Entire cringy interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaaTZkqsaxY
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 06:42:25 2020 judging from excerpts, 37 minutes of pure stupidity... this'll be rough...
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 06:46:54 2020 he says the same talking points in the same way all the time... i can't even imagine him having a normal conversation
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 06:50:39 2020 at ~5:15, reporter clearly suggesting irresponsible to hold a packed rally in Tulsa in June moron Trump doesn't notice & instead inflates the crowd size numbers & defends why even more weren't there (w/ bullshit about protesters blocking people)... reporter didn't even mention a thing about crowd size being less than expected
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 06:53:51 2020 ugh... just ugh... i deserve hazard pay
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:01:20 2020 ~13:15 is the fucking idiocy on deaths
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:03:10 2020 ... he has a bar graph w/ what looks like 4 countries on it... & we're the 'best'... i wonder which nanny printed that for him
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:09:10 2020 ~16:40 is the part where Trump responds identically to how a Russian gov't official would... exactly... there would be no difference... (plus lying that the issue didn't get to his desk... it was in writing, so he didn't see it)
Im better then you rank	Tue Aug 04 07:14:12 2020 Impressive how the interviewer keeps Trump on message. AT 10:00 Trump says something really retarded and reporter calls him on it.
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:15:34 2020 ~23:30 (on his voter fraud bullshit & talking of ballots being mailed out) Trump keeps saying 'ballot' reporter keeps correcting w/ 'application'... liar moron Trump oblivious :p & now lying that you don't have to apply...
Y2A rank	Tue Aug 04 07:18:17 2020 One thing that I would like to point out: The clown is making a point that the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) is lower than other countries. The clown also says that other countries only test when people are hospitalized. The points above are directly related. The true underlying mortality rate is going to differ when conditional on non-hospitalized vs hospitalized cases. In other words, the capturing of non-symptomatic non-hospitalized cases is going to bring the CFR down compared to another metric that is highly skewed towards the CFR on hospitalized cases.
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:18:19 2020 yeah, i should've noted that 10:00 part... 'people say, manuals say, books say'... 'what people, what manuals, what books?' of course he has no answer to any of it i wish other reporters kept on him this hard (& harder, as he's still slipping thru w/ bullshit)
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 07:35:34 2020 i made it to the end! ...my opinion of him has not improved (& yeah, that's another good point on the CFR... which the moron would never understand)
earthpig rank	Tue Aug 04 08:36:29 2020 Just finished. You can't sell something to someone that doesn't want to buy what you're selling. If you position yourself to only be talking to people that want to buy what you are selling, that's the best approach. Trump knows how to sell. We know that. Probably better than Obama, certainly better than Bush Jr. But he's been horrible at it since he stepped into office. I wonder what disconnect happened.
tumbleweed rank	Tue Aug 04 18:56:29 2020 the mental deterioration of a life-long con man + "You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."
tumbleweed rank	Wed Aug 05 08:34:23 2020 good edit: http://twitter.com/ProjectLincoln/status/1290867644263014400
Paramount rank	Wed Aug 05 08:40:24 2020 lol
patom rank	Wed Aug 05 13:04:14 2020 Being as I'm 76 and have a limited time left on earth, I make it a habit of skipping just about anything where Trump is spewing or the Kardashians.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 13:17:31 2020 I posted this in the wrong Trump thread. I know these things are Trump's own creation, this painful thing I am watching, but I still feel bad for him. So, I sit there forgetting who he is and I just want him to do well in the interview and ace all the questions.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 13:26:40 2020 EP "I wonder what disconnect happened." Probably because politics a way way different than all the other things that Trump has been selling. As soon as you step in to politics some number of people hate you, some of them are overly skeptical etc. co-centric circles of bad faith towards you. There is little rhyme and reason sometimes. Additionally the problems of society and politics are also far more complex and complicated. Trump has at every step on the way exacerbated the former by not dealing with the latter properly. Underestimating the complexity and overestimating his ability to sell sell sell. It works for a while, but eventually the house of card comes down.
Seb rank	Wed Aug 05 13:39:37 2020 EP: It's simple: you have to have something to sell, Trump is terrible at political delivery and follow through.
Habebe rank	Wed Aug 05 13:43:28 2020 Nim, I thought that's what happened.
Rugian rank	Wed Aug 05 13:59:06 2020 "But he's been horrible at it since he stepped into office. I wonder what disconnect happened." The four year-long manipulation campaign by establishment media to turn people like you against him certainly doesn't help.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 14:07:41 2020 Come on Rugian... Trump voter do not give a shit what the MSM says about Trump, they distrust it by default and refer to it as fake news.
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 14:45:12 2020 http://con...OLL/ff3ckcuphe6v4a_gbni8oa.png RINOs getting wobbly on Donald lately
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 14:52:04 2020 cratering Republican numbers is the reason for these insane interviews that trump is doing lately. You hear about president wishing Epstein's sex trafficer sideckick well, and you think who the fuck thought that letting Donald talk is a good idea? But campaign people probably feel they need to do something when faced with these polls. I can only imagine the shit Donald is going to say in the fall.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 14:55:34 2020 Another way of interpreting his well wishes is, you know the Italian mafia kinda a way. I wish you well, and hope no accidents shall befall you and your family. :D
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 15:12:37 2020 It can be intepreted in any way beacuse it is so insane. I couldn't believe at first, that it wasn't The Onion or some other satire site
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 15:18:17 2020 In some ways it is worse than the Prince Andrew interview, "I wish her well", that's 4 words! How do you achieve so much with 4 words?
Rugian rank	Wed Aug 05 15:24:20 2020 Whoa, GOP voters arent satisfied with the way things are going right now? You know, with the country being in the midst of a pandemic, a destroyed economy, and ongoing race riots? Shocking news indeed.
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 15:24:57 2020 well, Donald is a big hearted, compassionate fella who rarely announces his thoughts before all the facts are in, and he always thinks best of the people. Thats why he wished her well
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 15:26:12 2020 "Whoa, GOP voters arent satisfied with the way things are going right now" not the real ones, no. RINOs, I told you
Rugian rank	Wed Aug 05 15:29:30 2020 You're right. Real GOP voters must be loving the direction we're going in right now /s
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 15:30:46 2020 hey, nobody says this is going to be easy. If you want to be a fuckin cuck, jump from the wagon, bail on Donald.
Rugian rank	Wed Aug 05 15:38:32 2020 Not what I said, but okay.
Rugian rank	Wed Aug 05 15:41:45 2020 Anyway, we all know that Trump's inability to deliver consistent messaging and not say stupid shit off the cuff or on Twitter hurts him. He's his own worst enemy with his litany of unforced errors. That being said, the fact that so many people would currently rather side with a Democrstic Party that's been hijacked by socialist and Marxist extremists is a major warning sign that theres something fundamentally wrong with what Americans are hearing on the news.
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 16:18:04 2020 "He's his own worst enemy with his litany of unforced errors." somebody is clueless, 3D chess is not your thing, eh?
TJ rank	Wed Aug 05 17:17:31 2020 If there are 3 months and 4 years remaining of the Trump Presidency the constant vitriol from the past 3 years and 7 months will be no comparison to the epic display of the squeaky wheel levels to come. I'm totally amazed that the Democratic Party chose a candidate that is 77 years old and a three time loser. His VP pick will be the milk on toast.
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 17:50:00 2020 "I'm totally amazed that the Democratic Party chose a candidate that is 77 years old ' I am not amazed at all. This age thing and senility are way overrated, beacuse so what if a president is nuts? Whats the scary thing he's gonna do, tell americans to chug bleach? Not scared, turns out that is ok to do that
TJ rank	Wed Aug 05 18:38:43 2020 So, if one party jumps from a deadly cliff you agree that the other party should follow? Context twister. :D
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 18:57:51 2020 of course not. I am saying that your fears are misplaced, a nutso USA president saying completely batshit insane things, is not scary at all. You worry too much, thats it
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 19:11:53 2020 To some degree CR has a point, a very depressing point. Trump has shown the limits of the POTUS, you can basically elect someone that says all kinda of crazy things and civilization survives. Ultimately though, every crazy person like that corrodes the resiliance and cohension of that society...
tumbleweed rank	Wed Aug 05 19:12:09 2020 people would rather side w/ the Democrat party as Trump is incompetent & mentally unfit for office He clearly has no understanding of the pandemic & is spreading constant false info & doing NOTHING to help slow its spread (in fact denying the spread... still talking about 'we're putting out embers') & he has no understanding of anything else... there have been constant reports of him being difficult to brief as he won't pay attention, plus it's obvious from everything he says on every topic that he has no understanding & does no preparation see the Lincoln Project or other R's against Trump groups that are supporting Biden... you really think it's just 'fake news' that turned them against Trump? you need no news to spot the completely obvious problems w/ Trump... just listen to anything he ever says (off prompter)
TJ rank	Wed Aug 05 19:23:41 2020 I'm believing, at the moment, it's best you psychoanalyze your own fears and worries rather than what you believe mine to be. Expressing an opinion does not constitute worry or fear.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 19:35:52 2020 Well, I didn't interpret as fear. Amused more like it. Some of the topics here are kinda heavy and serious, but I always manage to be amazed and amused, even during what I believe are disaster. Even when I imagine the end of the world I manage to think, what an interesting concept, the end of the world. Well, at least it will be interesting!
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 19:39:19 2020 "Expressing an opinion does not constitute worry or fear." this is correct, I should have said amazement instead, you were not fearing or worrying. You were in total amazement that an utterly senile person can be chosen by a party and then perhaps elected to govern the US. I said your amazement is misplaced, nothing to be amazed about here, it has been done before
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 19:43:35 2020 Think about it. When you see something uniquely crazy the first time. You are pretty amazed, right? But you be like, never see that shit again. But then you do, wouldn't you be more amazed in some sense? What is the chance of that?
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 19:45:15 2020 In fact, should Joe Biden guarantee basic income of $3k a month to the entire fucking country and say that mexico will be paying for it, call melania a fucking prostitute and then defecate on the podium, the defecation will be the only really novel part, and I would advise democrats to not panic at all.
Nimatzo rank	Wed Aug 05 19:48:52 2020 But also CR, if you see one guy do something crazy and the guy that is his polar opposite also does, that is still be pretty amazing and novel?
TJ rank	Wed Aug 05 19:49:28 2020 If life wasn't interesting there would be no reason for me to live; if this place wasn't amusing there would be no reason to partake.
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 19:53:48 2020 "If life wasn't interesting there would be no reason for me to live" we'll still be discussing all the amazing things, president mental abilities including, but no need to frame this as some sort of threat to the country. Evidently it is not
TJ rank	Wed Aug 05 20:00:39 2020 That is affirmative and explains the truest concept of the end of the world. :D
CrownRoyal rank	Wed Aug 05 20:00:54 2020 "Think about it. When you see something uniquely crazy the first time. " First jobs report of Donald's administration. I thought no way any thinking people can swallow this, but oh, was I wrong. People can swallow anything. After that, I was not really amazed http://www...obs-numbers-sean-spicer-235936
earthpig rank	Thu Aug 06 06:31:28 2020 "That being said, the fact that so many people would currently rather side with a Democrstic Party that's been hijacked by socialist and Marxist extremists is a major warning sign that theres something fundamentally wrong with what Americans are hearing on the news." Biden won the Dem nomination, not Sanders. I'll probably vote for him. He sucks less. I view the Republican party as far more likely to pivot to Libertarians than the Democratic party. If that were to happen, like if Jo Joregensen or Rand Paul had any shot at winning, I'd very seriously give thought to voting (R) for president. I vote (R) on state/local stuff all the time, since a SF Bay Area (R) is mostly just a moderate (D), and I know they will not be stupid on the social issues, while being fiscally conservative on the spending stuff.
smart dude rank	Thu Aug 06 08:44:22 2020 "Rand Paul" LOL, the biggest sellout asshole "but my daddy..." piece of shit in the whole of Washington. Literally WTF is wrong with you?
smart dude rank	Thu Aug 06 08:46:23 2020 When Rand Paul takes his big disgusting mouth off Trump's tiny little cock then maybe you might make a case for the jerry-curled piece of shit.
Rugian rank	Fri Aug 07 15:42:51 2020 Earthpig Sanders did win. Biden has moved significantly to the left in order to appease Bernie's progressive base. Biden is incredibly disingenuous. He speaks in public as little as possible so that people arent turned off from his newfound support of far-left policies, and at the same time he continues riding on his reputation as a moderate even though he no longer is one.
Habebe rank	Fri Aug 07 16:03:37 2020 I think biden speaks as little as possible because all he does is put his foot in his mouth. Speaking can only famage his.lead in the polls while saying nothing hamds Trump the rope to hang himself.
