Sex, coffee, a walk in sandals.

I see nothing wrong with that.

At my age it's coffee, smokes and a barefoot walk.

(To be read with the above music as background):

TRUMP: Chris, thank you very much. I appreciate it.This has been an amazing evening. Already, we’ve won five major states and it looks like we could win six or seven or eight or nine.

(APPLAUSE)

It’s really been — it’s really been great.I want to congratulation Ted on the winning of Texas. He worked hard on he — I know how hard he worked actually, and so I congratulate Ted Cruz on that win. That was an excellent win.We’re going to make America great again, folks. We’re going to make it great again.And, you know, I watched Hillary’s speech and she’s talking about wages have been poor and everything’s poor and everything’s doing badly, but we’re going to make it — she’s been there for so long. I mean, if she hasn’t straightened it out by now, she’s not going to straighten it out in the next four years. It’s just going to become worse and worse. She wants to make America whole again and I’m trying to figure out what is that all about.

Make America great again is going to be much better than making America whole again.So I just want to say that this was an exciting evening. It’s so great to be in Florida. It’s so great to be at Mar-A-Lago with friends and the press and the media and everybody.

(APPLAUSE)

I know it was a very tough night for Marco Rubio. He had a tough night but he worked hard. He spent a lot of money. He is a lightweight, as I’ve said many times before. But you know what? We’re going to go to Florida, we’re going to spend so much time in Florida. We’ve got about a 20-point lead. I know that a lot of groups, a lot of the special interests and a lot of the lobbyists and the people that want to have their little senator do exactly as they want, they’re going to put $20 million or $25 million into it over the next two weeks, from what just came over the wires. And frankly, I think that’s fine. As far as I’m concerned, it’s fine. And if he wins, they’ll have totally controlled — total control. But he’s not going anywhere anyway, but we’ll see what happens. But we’re going to spend a lot of time in Florida.

The Virginia one was just a great win because it’s a place that is just spectacular and a place that we have big investments in, as we have in Florida. Remember, we have thousands of employees in Florida, all along Miami, Doral and Mar-A-Lago and so many other places. And it’s been an amazing place to invest. It’s been amazing to have so many wonderful employees, so many of whom are here tonight, really urging us on.

And you know, I have thousands of employees all over the country, actually, all over the world but for purposes of tonight, we’ll just say all over the country. And it’s been just so beautiful to watch this company grow and to watch it grow so strongly.Recent articles came out talking about how great a company we built, and now we want to put that same ability into doing something for our nation. I mean, our nation is in serious trouble. We’re being chilled on trade, absolutely destroyed. China is just taking advantage of us. I have nothing against China. I have great respect for China, but their leaders are too smart for our leaders. Our leaders don’t have a clue and the trade deficits at $400 billion and $500 are too much. No country can sustain that kind of trade deficit.

It won’t be that way for long. We have the greatest business leaders in the world on my team already and, believe me, we’re going to redo those trade deals and it’s going to be a thing of beauty.You look at countries like Mexico, where they’re killing us on the border, absolutely destroying us on the border. They’re destroying us in terms of economic development. Companies like Carrier Air Conditioner just moving into Mexico. Ford, moving into Mexico. Nabisco, closing up shop in Chicago and moving into Mexico. We have to stop it, folks. I know how to stop it. We’re going to create jobs. We’re going to create jobs like you’ve never seen.We’re going to lower taxes. I have a plan that Larry Kudlow and so many others think is the best plan they’ve seen. We’re going to lower taxes substantially for the middle class. The middle class has been forgotten in our country. It really helped and really probably was the predominant factor in making our country into a country that we all love so much and we’re all so proud of, but we’ve forgotten the middle class. So we’re going to lower taxes.We’re lowering taxes on business.

You look at all the companies that are moving out. When you see Pfizer moving to Ireland and you see so many other companies, constantly now they’re leaving. They used to move from New York to Florida, or they’d move from New Jersey to someplace else, Chris. But now they’re moving from here — (LAUGHTER) — not that many people are leaving New Jersey. But Chris understands the problem, fully understands. Now they’re leaving from places that they used to move to into other parts of the world. We can’t let that happen.We’ve lost our manufacturing jobs. We’ve lost our manufacturing. Millions and millions of jobs, thousands and thousands and thousands of plants, manufacturing plants, warehouses. I mean, we are losing so much. We can’t let it happen.I tell the story often about a friend of mine who is in the excavation business and he always orders Caterpillar. And recently, he ordered Komatsu tractors from Japan because they’ve cut the yen. They’ve devalued the yen to such an extent that it was virtually impossible for Caterpillar to compete. And I don’t want that to happen. That’s not going to happen. They shouldn’t be allowed to do it.

We have tremendous power over everybody because we are really the source. We have great, great power. The problem is we have politicians who truly, truly, truly don’t know what they’re doing. So we’re going to work very, very hard.I’m so honored by this evening. If you would’ve told me on June 16th, when I was with my wife, Melania, and we came down the escalator in Trump Tower and it looked, literally, well, a little bit like this. You have a lot of cameras here tonight.

(APPLAUSE)

It looked, literally, like the Academy Awards. I never saw so many cameras in my life. And it takes courage to run. I’ll tell you what, it takes a lot of courage to run for president. I’ve never done this before. I’ve been a job-producer. I’ve done a lot of things but this is something I’ve never done, but I felt we had to do it. When you look at the incompetence of the Iran deal, where we give $150 billion, we get absolutely nothing. When you look at all of the problems our country has and you look at our military, which is really being depleted rapidly, depleted. We’re going to make our military bigger and better and stronger than ever before, and nobody, nobody, nobody is going to mess with us, folks, nobody.(APPLAUSE)So it’s just an amazing honor to have you with me tonight.

"We have tremendous power over everybody because we are really the source." --Donald J. Trump

Liberals cries: "Trump hasn't held any press conferences!"


Trump: "...I got shit to do. Peace out."

America, Spirit and Logic:

Well, there sure are a lot of people telling Trump what he is doing wrong and he hasn't even done anything yet.

But we need to keep things in proper perspective: It are those same people who have screwed things up so badly.

Yes, I like when Trump said of Hillary that she has already been around in politics for decades and still hasn't fixed anything, so obviously she isn't doing to suddenly start fixing things if she were president.

Reality is asserting itself now, we are seeing a truth-correction. Trump is that correction, or rather he represents it as a Sign, and he instantiates it with resolve and depth. Now it is revealed to all the shallowness of politically correct liberalism, in Stein, Sanders, and all the rest of this nonsense going on right now.

Politically correct liberalism is a pure excess, like Canada, like any socialism. It is too shallow to ever found a reality upon itself. It can only exist at the behest of a much larger reality other than itself, as a kind of bleed-off from that reality.

Over the past 60 years politically correct liberalism has been trying to reverse this ontological catastrophe of itself, has been trying to found a reality upon itself as what we call neoliberal globalism and cultural liberalism. The politically correct liberals of today want another Cultural Revolution, starting from Hollywood and spreading to everywhere else... too bad for them (and very good for us) they aren't going to get it.

America in reality has been resisting these cultural revolution efforts of the PC left for a long time now, and now finally with Trump in reality we also resist the other side, the neoliberal globalism. All these so-called Leftists who hated Trump should really be cheering him. Trump is the true "leftist" now, he has reversed the ideological tables, reset things closer to reality: with Trump the true left separates out from fake left neoliberal globalism.

I can proudly state that I have never been accused of political correctness.

America, spirit and logic:

Dank memes.

Pretty good music. Well performed.

I once had an oil painting of a Gypsy woman who I called Rosetta. One of my ex-wives kept it.

This is a great album. Was a staple during the university days.



Self fucking valuing. The common currency.

Never heard of them.
