Reminder, the only time Trump played a golf tournament where he couldn't cheat, the American Century celebrity tournament in 2006, he shot 52 over par in 3 rounds and finished in 62nd place out of 80 celebrities, then cheated on his wife with a pornstar

If those are accurate numbers…

Holy shit. That’s bad.

After many months of work, I'm thrilled to announce the first draft of the Mistborn screenplay is DONE! Just in time to celebrate the book's original publication, twenty years ago this month. Do please remember that this is just an early step in a very long process, but I'm terribly excited by how it turned out!

Trump claimed his tariffs would bring about a golden age of American manufacturing.

Yet since his re-election, we've lost 75,000 manufacturing jobs. Over the same period, Biden had created 625,000.

The really funny thing about those documents released last night?

They don’t claim that a single vote was changed. They don’t claim that databases were manipulated.

But they had their intended effect - the paid GOP shills are going crazy this morning

[Isaac Saul @Ike_Saul]

Last night's spectacle is turning into an absolute embarrassment. The documents Trump declassified are doing more to prove that 1) our elections are secure, 2) Russia tried to help him win twice, and 3) He lost fair & square in 2020 than anything any Dem has done in years.

Wow.

Proving the opposite case

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

And there you have it.

Donald Trump released these documents tonight believing they would finally prove the 2020 election was rigged against him.

Instead, his own release reinforced the exact opposite: Russia interfered to damage Joe Biden and benefit Donald Trump.

The central @HunterBiden -Burisma bribery smear was built on fabricated claims from an FBI informant with Russian contacts, a man now serving six years in federal prison. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden is winning millions in court over defamatory lies.

Trump tried to expose a conspiracy against himself and accidentally exposed the operation that benefited him.

Absolute, breathtaking incompetence.

Thanks for releasing the receipts, Donald!

While you were figuring out how to pay rent, your president made $2.2 billion.

While your groceries got more expensive, he was collecting $636M off a memecoin his own supporters lost money on.

Who exactly is he working for? Not us.

Donald Trump has used the presidency to make BILLIONS of dollars.

And he wants to talk about fraud?

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

MAGA:

2016 was fair! (Obama was President)

2020 was rigged! (Trump was President)

2024 was fair! (Biden was President)

They’re going to rig 2026! (Trump is President)

Why is Donald Trump so fucking bad at securing elections according to MAGA?

@dkierna Put that peace medal to good work

[Decoding Fox News @DecodingFoxNews]

Will a single Republican mention that Pres. Trump just claimed to have a conversation with a man who died three decades before he was born?

Will anyone in corporate media call this out? It’s kind of a red flag on fire that the man is not well.

OMFG.

THERE ARE LITERALLY 7 PEOPLE WATCHING THIS ENTERTAINMENT AT TRUMP’S GREAT AMERICAN STATE FAIR. ONE OF THEM IS ASLEEP.
