You don't think his former #2 man in his campaign, Rick Gates, talking to
Bob Mueller & Co. today has anything to do with his twitter-lanche?
femmedem
(8,213 posts)IMO, the worst is his retweet of the anonymous Daily Caller OpEd saying that the goal of the shutdown is a permanent reduction in the size of government, with many federal employees never returning.
demmiblue
(36,920 posts)That column also plays into his paranoia with talk about saboteurs and resistance leaders.

demmiblue
(36,920 posts)You can pick up fast food anywhere... it looks cheap to me.
CatMor
(6,212 posts)and by the next day it became 1000 hamberders. Why does that moron have to lie about everything, even "hamberders".
JHB
(37,166 posts)LakeSuperiorView
(1,533 posts)About 120 players, max, if everyone made it. Absolutely no way you could have 80 coaches, and hangers on. So he's claiming that each and every one ate over 5 "hamberders" along with nuggets, salads and fries.
What a fucking moron.

(9,426 posts)he needed an overcoat? The food must have been unappetizing once cold. This was insulting. No planning went into this at all.

(56,829 posts)he would have had catered filet mignon for them, not 300 hamberders.
LakeArenal
(28,895 posts)Never mentioned the teams success. Never shook anyones hand. Only about politics and self-promotion.
NewJeffCT
(56,829 posts)plus fries and soft drinks and a few other items from Wendy's will be $10 - $15 per meal. So, $3,000 to $4,500, not including a delivery charge. Wendy's doesn't deliver AFAIK.
Hiring a caterer for 150 people to deliver one nice meal each would be what, maybe $50 per head? Even if we double that to $100 per head, we're talking $7,500 to $15,000 in total. Plus, the meal will be hot and prepared on site. With hot food, Lil Donny gets more time to make a political statement.
For a big occasion, is an extra $5,000 to $10,000 too much for Mr Billionaire Big Bucks?

(638 posts)That is that this may be single strongest example that there may be a simulated universe we're all living in. At this point they would be just trolling us. Hamberders served. Lmfao.

demmiblue
(36,920 posts)This is the first one regarding his tweet (sometimes I miss a post if I have someone on ignore).
Anywho, MF45 deleted the tweet a posted a new one. I am glad we were able to have a little bit of fun!

(7,290 posts)There often are a number of threads on the same topic in General Discussion - people log in at different times, posts slip down or off the first page, folks want to highlight different aspects, and some, it has to be said, don't check whether a similar post has been made earlier.
There's no rule against multiple posts on the same subject in most of the forums and groups - it only applies in Latest Breaking News.

(7,290 posts)Some have catchier titles than others, so they tend to get more eyes and replies, so keep being kicked to the top of the page.
If you're fed up seeing posts on the same topic, there are account tools like the Trash Can > Auto-trash by Keyword, which in theory means you won't see posts containing a certain keyword ever again unless you undo the auto-trash, and the Thread Trash Can (triggered by clicking on the little x in a box after each post title), which means you won't see that particular post again.

But he insists on getting reimbursed for 1000 items
That's the ticket

(3,427 posts)It is the way he ran his business, so it makes sense that he would continue the same pattern now. I hope some reporter follows up on this.

(3,131 posts)If it was all gone in an hour. How weird is it that theres video before the team but not with the team. Did they grab their food and get back on the bus? Did he go for some executive time for an hour then come back and everything and everyone was gone?
Its not worth the distraction but Id love to see the receipt showing 300 or 1000 ham-birders and that he paid.
