Precisely. Just like everything else he says, it's a horribly, warped & delusional lie. He's never negotiated a single thing, ever. He just bullies his way through on a wave of Cash, threats & Bul***t. The very second he comes up against an adversary even equal to him, he loses because he's incompetent, staggeringly thick, poorly educated & well, catastrophically disastrous. Anyway, Windmills...........
I've said before that if Trump had of just sat back and let the other Republicans run the govt whilst he showboated, tool credit and had rallies he would still be president.... However he couldn't stop putting his mushroom into it and manages to screw it up as much as possible each time. I like Biden but I'm under no illusion that the only reason he's president is because Trump was so bad that he had to be replaced.

I think that's a little harsh, the first draft looks both detailed & highly accurate.
After all, “I know words. I have the best words.”
Amazon is a big publisher..After all, “I know words. I have the best words.”

The primary resource that a publisher requires to survive is people who write books, aka authors. By the nature of their business authors tend to be both very well read and quite the precious little darlings regarding what appears on the cover of their book.
Any publisher wishing to associate their name with Trump will have to balance potential profits against the number of current and future
For a large publisher it does not make financial sense to embrace Trump, they will lose too much business. Of course it pays to not say this too loudly because there's a moral high ground to be taken but the bottom line is what it is.
Then there's Amazon.
Self publishing is valid if you have a strategy... a) a niche market to serve or b) the book is an add on to another service where you expect to make your money. Both of these exist in Trump's case but on the other hand he'd have to put his future in the hands of Jeff Bozos, the success of which would be interesting to see though I don't think will happen.
Trump can find a publisher if he needs one but big names will be cautious of losing talent if they ally themselves with him.
TP - trump hasn't written any of his other books - why start now. We also know he didn't proof read any of them, just had someone tell him they were full of praise of him.
We also know he reads very little placed in front of him. He won't put the effort in to write a book, more likely as with everything else, he'll put his name to a book some other sycophant will write.

What they found was that Dem voters not only turned out in large numbers and voted for their local candidate but also for Biden.
Whereas GOP voters turned out also in large numbers and voted for their candidate, but not always for trump. trump definately lost the party a large number of votes.
More on the Arizona Fraudit votes move to the CEO's ranch
An unsupervised driver transported copies of ballot data in a truck to a cabin in the community of Bigfork in northwest Montana, several media outlets reported.
The state Senate Republican liaison has “confirmed that copies of voting system data was sent to a ‘lab’ in Montana,” an observer wrote earlier this month on an “SOS” website set up by the office of Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D). “He did not specify what security measures were in place, or what the lab in Montana will do with the data, or how long it will be in possession of the copies,” added the note.
Hobbs, who’s running for governor, called the Montana operation “madness.” She said audit organizers promised a “transparent” operation with cameras. “There was no camera in a cabin in Montana,” she said.
Arizona Republic journalist Jen Fifield discovered that the cabin now holding the records is the residence of Ben Cotton, founder of digital company CyFIR, which is a subcontractor of the company running the recount. CyFIR’s parent company, Cyber Technologies, also run by Cotton, appears to have the same address in the Montana woods, which was tracked down by CNN this week.

More than 20 civil society groups are imploring Congress and A.G. Garland to investigate the Trump DOJ's secret subpoenas. They're specifically calling for public hearings and new legislation that goes beyond just internal DOJ reforms

More on the trump capitol insurrectionist who brought a gun...
The Justice Department on Thursday charged a US Capitol rioter with bringing a handgun onto Capitol grounds -- two days after a hearing where Republican lawmakers downplayed the deadly attack and claimed the pro-Trump rioters were unarmed.
The new charge was filed against Guy Reffitt, a Texan whose case received national attention after his own family members told the FBI that he threatened to kill them if they turned him in.
Prosecutors said in the new indictment that Reffitt carried a "deadly and dangerous weapon," specifically a "semi-automatic handgun," while he was unlawfully on Capitol grounds. He isn't accused of entering the building itself. But it's still against the law to breach the perimeter of the Capitol complex and storm past fences and barricades, which Reffitt was photographed doing.
This undermines Republican efforts to whitewash the January 6 insurrection. GOP lawmakers have pushed false-flag theories that the FBI, antifa or Black Lives Matter were behind the attack. They also claimed the mob was "unarmed," even though rioters are accused of bringing guns and knives to the Capitol and using bear spray, flagpoles and baseball bats to attack police.
Reffitt is charged with five crimes, including felony obstruction of Congress. He hasn't entered a plea to the new indictment, but he previously pleaded not guilty to some of the same charges.

CNN's fact check on Fox News claims it was an FBI false flag operation. I wish they'd make their minds up. First they claimed it was Antifa, then that it was peaceful...
Fox News, right-wing websites and Republican lawmakers are promoting a new false flag conspiracy that the FBI orchestrated the deadly assault on the US Capitol.
The haywire theory originated from an article published Monday by Revolver News, a right-wing website. From there, it was picked up by Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who used his opening segment on Tuesday night to slam the FBI, saying it played a role in the January 6 attack.
Several Republican lawmakers quickly piled on. They entered the article into the congressional record, tweeted about the Fox News segment, condemned the FBI agents who supposedly "organized and participated" in the Capitol attack, and demanded answers from the FBI director.
But here's the problem: The underlying article was nothing more than a conspiratorial web of unproven claims, half-truths and inaccurate drivel about perceived bombshells in court filings.

The notion that "unindicted co-conspirators" means "FBi agents" is absolutely hilarious. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/06/17/politics/tucker...

Unfortunately there will apparently be no further updates from Byker in this thread. Seems he's no longer welcome here.

Say what?I check into this thread daily, and haven't seen anything ban-worthy posted.

Whats going on?
He's been banned from the thread: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...Bit odd, given mods have been in and out of these threads for some time and not had a problem with it.

Pretty sure there is a cabal of posters who report every one of his posts in an attempt to get him banned.
DefinitelyByker was banned from the Biden thread as well.
If byker's been banned from this thread, it's something the mods
need to look into.According to website feedback it’s because he’s broken rule 16 about copying/pasting news articles but I’ve seen no change in what and how he posts and he’s been doing the same since the thread started. Seems odd to ban him now?
We’ve had mods contributing regularly as well!
Why are Trumpettes the biggest snowflakes of them all?
