Every day we find out something new about Donald Trump that doesn't, I mean it doesn't shock me,

but it's interesting to put all the pieces together. It's like a, it's like a well-written, unnecessary episode of scandal. That's what it feels like, because we're always finding out new things. Like to find out that the guy lied his way onto Forbes and then lied his way from Forbes and then lied after the Forbes. You go like, so everything, every single thing that he does is just like lying all the way through it. And I know some people would get angry and be like, oh, that you know the lying and the, you know, I can't believe it's fraudulence or whatever. But I also go, the fact that's all you're supposed to do as Forbes you guys don't you don't you don't check like really that's

that's all you're supposed to do as Forbes for me that's your only job is to just check if the people have the money and if all Trump has to do is phone you with a fake voice and be like I have the money I mean he has the money I mean he has the money like that's all and that's how people get on the list and then what makes it w w w w w w w w w w is th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. that. the. the. the. the. the. that's that. the. the. the. the. the. th th th th th the. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. that is that is that is that is that the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the to the the to the the the to the the the the the the the. the. the makes it worse is they go like if he possibly got money and loans, who's giving Donald Trump a loan? Like if ever there was a definition of white privilege for me, it's walking into a bank with a magazine and being like, here, page four. You see, page four, this is how much money I have. Can you imagine, imagine, like a black entertainer try to pull that move, just walked in with like, Ebony Magazine, and they were like like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the like, the, the, the, the, the, like, the, like, it's like a black entertainer try to pull that move. Just walked in with like Ebony magazine and they were like, yeah, so about that loan.

I don't know if you notice on page 7, I'm looking real fly. So I mean, what do you say? He's like, no, man, why are you giving him the loan? It's ridiculous. And it also sort of makes you understand how and why Donald Trump uses the phrase fake news. Because for so long, Donald Trump was instrumental in making fake news.

So in his head, he sees the news as fake because he contributed to making it fake. So he goes like, I've made so many fake stories. I was John Barron. I was, he played like another character as well, he said, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, toed, toed, toed, toed, toed, toed, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to me.. to me. to me. too, too, too, toldld, too, too, too, tolde. too, too, told, told, toe. fake stories. I was John Barron. I was, he played like another character as well where he like lied about his relationships. He said he dated supermodels that he didn't date. He planted stories about himself. But he saw the fruit. So he went, I can call a reporter.

The reporter's not really going to check. They're going to print the story. And I can't make fake news. tho. So, tho. So, tho, tho, thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. the thu. the the thi. the thi. the thi. He. He. He. He he he he he he he he he he he thi. He he he he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he.
