Trump, in Scotland, takes press for a ride

"The presumptive GOP nominee tools around his golf course, shrugs off Brexit’s effect on U.S. before dining with Rupert Murdoch."

BALMEDIE, Scotland — Donald Trump took his business and campaigning cross-promotion to the next level on Saturday, giving a rolling press conference and tour of his resort from the driver’s seat of a golf cart, with reporters in hot pursuit.

The press conference revealed both stunning views of the North Sea and that Trump will dine Saturday night with Australian media magnate Rupert Murdoch.

A POLITICO reporter was turned away at the resort's front entrance, and quotes are based on reports from journalists in attendance.

A day after the UK voted to leave the EU, Trump was nonchalant about the repercussions of that vote for Americans. "This shouldn't even affect them, frankly, if it's done properly, if we had proper leadership,” he said on the 10th hole. "The U.S. has real, real problems and Brexit is not their problem," he added on the 13th.

It's what Bernie's people are saying about Bernie. Hope they'll come over to our side.

As Jackie Gleeson used to say,,,, "How sweet it is". For all you "Left Wing Raggies", (meaning liberal pressers), how does it feel to see your reign of bullshit coming to an end. Maybe it's time to start competing with "Mad Magazine". Alfred Neuman awaits your frivolous challenge.
The DEMe has stated that the right wing, gun owners are more of a threat to our beloved USA. That is a massive lie. Liberalism is the greater threat ten fold.

The GOPe has recently stated that THEY want to teach us, meaning "We The People" a lesson.
Time to teach THEM, those who work for "We The People" a lesson....

TIME TO VOTE THEM OUT AND ENACT TERM LIMITS

IN LIBERTY

A Politico reporter:. I was thrown across the entryway to the Trump golf course by Paul Manafort, who had my helpless body spinning and doing backflips until my lifeless remains crumpled in a bloody heap. At that point a drooling beta male of a WaPo reporter helped me to my feet and promised to support my lawsuit.

TV news bias was particularly entertaining this AM. They were complaining that Trump was shamelessly promoting his golf courses when he spoke. And they were complaining that he was talking about political issues while he was promoting his golf course.

What the heck was he supposed to say that they wouldn't complain about?

HOOT MAN!! That translates as “Good man’’ to the Scots. I should know. I grew up in Kearny, NJ. It was filled with “Scotties’’. My people however were Irish how ever. And proud Americans.

Funny you should mention Mad Magazine. Have you seen it’s latest cover? It’s certainly not kind to Donald Trump to say the least. I surprised Mad Magazine is still around. God, I remember as a kid having that thing was an act of sheer rebellion. Boy, those were the days.

They expect him to totally ignore his best properties. The courses he has in Scotland are breathtaking. When he is President, I hope he uses all his best locations to golf, wine and dine any and all foreign dignitaries...it will bring some class to our Presidency that has been sorely lacking.

It makes me furious to watch the current inhabitants of the White House try to act dignified, when the two of them are nothing more than a couple of grifters. Even the MSM can’t make them look good, although not without trying.

Imagine...he was a punk and an street agitator one day, and all within a few years, they have a million dollar home, he is a senator and she gets a $300,000 a year job made for her, for doing nothing and then they are living in the White House. And both still complain about America.

I want these people out of our house and out of our lives!
