I'll let the headline do the talking: The Ridiculous Stories Behind Donald Trumps Film and TV Cameos

Quote:
Before he hosted The Apprentice—and long before his short fingers came within reach of the White House—Donald Trump enjoyed a terrible and haphazard acting career.

Like Ronald Reagan, Trump’s path to serious presidential candidate is littered with campy film and TV appearances. Unlike Reagan, Trump cannot actually act. And yet between 1987—when he boosted his celebrity profile with the publication of The Art of the Deal—and 2004, Trump appeared in dozens of TV shows and more than 10 feature films. Home Alone 2 and Zoolander are well remembered, but most of these movies are the kind that get lost in the dollar bin of a Blockbuster torched by its owners for the insurance money cash-in.

Speaking of cash-ins, the real estate mogul used these appearances to promote his brand: Trump nearly always played himself, with surrounding characters often stating his name in awe (“That’s Donald Trump!”) and remarking on his wealth. He reveled in the attention. Though Trump was a world-famous billionaire, he made himself quite available whenever an opportunity to appear on camera presented itself—even in B-movies like the ghost-sex disaster Ghosts Can’t Do It. “He wasn’t a hard get,” says one veteran producer. “I think you can tell that as long as that gentleman got to play himself, he was up for most shows.”

Clinton said: “Maybe you saw Donald dismantle his prompter the other day, and I get that. They're hard to keep up with, and I'm sure it's even harder when you're translating from the original Russian.”

That really is a great zinger. I bet Obama would have delivered it better, but I liked it.

Eric Trump puts lemonade in the free water cup at In-And-Out, which is now news for some reason.



How many days left?

It looks like Butthead from Beavis and Butthead won the lottery.

I'd be curious to see the reaction if they just released uncensored audio of him dropping the N-bomb (assuming it exists).

Do they just release a transcript in text? Release audio with it bleeped out? Or just go full out, uncensored, in your face, no question about it audio.

You'd have to think that there's still more stuff out there. It's only a matter of time and if someone wants to get it out there. But I also think that he's already hit rock bottom so it could also be viewed as just piling on.

History has proven that the truly bad stuff starts happening once real political power has been achieved.

CBC News just interviewed a Trump supporter talking about volunteering to be a "poll watcher" on election day. The reporter asked him "so what does that mean exactly?" Of course the guy wouldn't really specify and just went off on a ridiculous rant about how they're going to do everything they can to stop the Dems from cheating on Nov 8th, and to stop them from allowing dead people to vote". Speaking of which:

The Samantha Bee show, cant think of the name of it, did the same thing. Interviewed Trump supporters about polling place presence, the irony of their position on it was delicious.

How could a group that releases documents "get things wrong"? Is he saying they've never released disinfo? Hard to believe they have the capacity to vet everything they obtain.

Wikileaks is the orange goblin's only hope at this point, Hannity would sacrifice his first born to them if it gets the goblin into the White House.

Does this election matter more to the stock market/investments than other US elections? This article says it doesn't

What does CP think

What does CP think
Could only view the first page and a half, but that article seems to be saying that the election doesn't matter to someone's investment portfolio. Not that the election doesn't matter.
