When Donald Trump says that drug prices have come down 500 percent why does not one reporter ask him "What do you mean by that?" So what if he calls them obnoxious, press the douche bag for an answer.
Mathematically a reduction of 100% means it is free, which it is not. A reduction of 500% means the drug company will have to pay you to take it, which they do not. Actually pretty funny curve ball.
Either way T has a demented inflation of his greatness. Trying to make points having him explain the inexplicable is a waste of time. He loves the attention and just wants to see how stupid and gullible the reporters are. Bet he is laughing inside.
What do you think the chances are if trump getting impeached and removed, also, Stephen Miller, do you think he will last in the administration especially if trump is gone? How come the military has not staged a coup, I keep expecting to wake up to this
I’m still hoping to find a way to discuss this with you, as it aligns closely with the themes in your book. We would really value your input—and potentially your help connecting with people and Democratic leaders like Ro Khanna—so we can share this strategy ahead of the midterms and beyond.
I’m happy to send a written overview, but a short presentation may be the most efficient way to walk through the concept.
Here’s the background: A Democratic group I’m part of has developed a highly effective strategy using local community media to support Democratic candidates at the local, state, and national levels. It’s already showing strong results, and now we’re looking for the best path to get this information into the hands of the right people.
Would you have a few minutes to explore this with us?
David, first of all thank you for being the mind and the man that you are, and for being my daily dose of sanity. I know a lot of us are of two minds about leaving the country. I have largely sided with your position, I agree with your personal analysis. But things are shifting rapidly and seemingly not for the better. And I am only here because it is what’s perceived to be what’s best for my loved ones, but perhaps not for me. I’m a senior and I have to br a bit selfish with whatever time I have left. Wr have blown past about a dozen of my absolute “red flags,” and, due to family and health situations, I am still in the police state of DC. Given recent polling and the political direction we are seeing, Democrats are certain to win the midterms. If they do not, then it is election interference, and in my mind it could only be a stolen election pure and simple. And you know what they call countries without free and fair elections. So 10 months from now, I may be saying “We’re not getting this country back in my lifetime, I’m gone!” It’s not easy leaving loved ones in difficult situations, but that’s ultimately their choice. If you’re looking for the question, there really isn’t one except… Do you, my good parasocial friend and mentor, believe my final red flag is valid and/or appropriately placed?
Enjoyed the post-mortem on your Kamala interview. It convinced me yet again that Kamala simply can’t find/keep quality or even competent team members. Total metaphor for her campaign.
Here’s my question: can you name some political figures who have a -good- reputation for running events on time and accommodating writers as much as possible without running an obstacle course?
1. How much of the current political dysfunction do you think comes from structural problems in media business models, and is there any practical path to fixing that?
2. What is the most important context traditional news outlets still fail to include when reporting on Trump’s statements and behavior?
3. What is the biggest sign that many MAGA politicians are exploiting the movement instead of believing in it?
Bonus question.
Why do you think so many people have tuned out of politics at the exact moment when their disengagement makes it easier for bad actors to grab more power, and what would actually wake them back up?
Are the government contracts being given to Don Jr’s new companies and foreign deals negotiated by the administration for billions in profits anywhere near legal?
Regarding the Supreme Court is there any way that either the three justices that Trump installed can be removed or better yet Is there any method or mechanism that allows the next president to pack the court?
How on Earth is the Trump administration going to enforce all the background checks including social media profiles on incoming foreign tourists?? And can they?
recently it seems to me that the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) is more defending the personal interests of the actual POTUS than principles of the constitution.
Is this because the 6 conservative members of the SCOTUS agree so much with Trump and his policies or they feel a certain expectation (being Republican) or even pressure to do so?
Last question today. When I'm going down to Florida in February from Toronto for a five day golf weekend and I get asked at the border for my 5 yrs worth of social media browising what do you think I'll say? Exactly, No more David Pakman. Actually still listening to Dave but no more spending a dime in the cesspool of a country that idiot turned it into

Stop reporting on his insane comments.
Then ask him why any of his advisers doesn't explain to him what a fucking moron he is
A moron is someone who can not understand anything. So exactly how do you explain to a moron that he is a moron??

Hi David.
Great, thanks for presenting an opportunity to ask questions!
When will The Idiot That Is Trump be held accountable?
When will Karoline become a decent person and not the cultist loving, gold digging so and so, that she is?
When will the Epstein victims finally get justice?
When will Pathetic Pete (Hegseth) and Cruella Kristi (Noem) get their come uppances?
Oh, I bet you wish you hadn’t asked, ha!
Love the work you’re doing. I think you should get a Peace Prize. Just not the pathetic FIFA one DT revelled in/preened about with.

Ask Stephen Miller what he's doing for Channukah?
500%? How does that math work. About like the brain who said it.
Regarding the Supreme Court is there any way that either the three justices that Trump installed can be removed or better yet Is there any method or mechanism that allows the next president to pack the court?

From what I heard about the Epstein files, it's not going to be a lot of new info.
