Trump: "The Failing New York Times will pass away when I leave office in 6 years"

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

The Failing New York Times (it will pass away when I leave office in 6 years), and others of the Fake News Media, keep writing phony stories about how I didn’t use many banks because they didn’t want to do business with me. WRONG! It is because I didn’t need money. Very old

...and it was more of the same, and i didn't bother posting it. Much paranoia over money laundering and where he gets his money. He's definitely having a bad Monday.

There's a decent chance YOU won't be around in 6 years.



It was in Trump's health-check: He's taking a certain medication at a dose that's too high for someone his age. That means, he is battling some sort of medical condition right now, and it must be so bad that his doctors are willing to trade short-term health benefits for long-term damage.

Fred lived to 93. I know parents aren't a 100% prediction of their children's lifespan, but I'm guessing that despite his dietary habits and inactive lifestyle, he has enough evil in the tank to go a while longer.

and how did that turn out?

Democrats picked up 40 seats in the House and several governorships and a lot of state level seats as well.

Of course, he was predicting that the day the House was taken away from him.

I know DUers need no encouragement to VOTE in Nov. 2020, but I hope some of the current insanity seeps into the consciousness of the voters outside of this community.

People who are desperate for money don't make shady investments with equally shady brokers.

Ain't no way he plans to leave office in six years or ever.

He's got that order in for an Iron Throne, only made of gold.

Or in old coffee cans in his apartment in his tower?

And I suppose he used that coffee can cash to build the 20 million dollar a pop new towers all around the globe?

You’re a joke, Assface...just go back to bed.

to pony up the funding for his Trump Tower Moscow. Trump lied! Trump didn't have enough money to begin construction and no bank would take the risk, so he was courting Putin with extravagant promises and gifts of a multimillion dollar penthouse suite if he would finance the project.

Has won 127 Pulitzer Prizes, more than any other newspaper.

That's a LOT of fake news. You'd think people would catch on to their scam after a hundred years or so. And why would his hometown paper know anything about a publicity hound like him?
