    She detailed having met Trump at a golf tournament in 2006, when she was 27 years old and — as she tells it — Trump was already older than her father.

    I’m sorry to be pedantic, but wasn’t he always older than her father? Like, that’s how age works.

          Thank you, that’s very sweet of you. While my statement was a bit tongue-in-cheek, if I live to see my 60th birthday, I’ll officially be older than my father ever was.

          Maybe it’s one of those “at the time, Trump was older than my father ever was” kind of statements

      Maybe they meant “already older then than her father’s current age?” They probably didn’t, and I’m too lazy to fact check that, but agreed, what a weird comment to add to the article

        Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you something. Tremendous things, really. So, I tweeted something, and people are saying, “Donald, what’s going on with that tweet?” And I said, “Look, folks, it was a tremendous tweet, the best tweet, believe me.” But then, I thought, maybe it was too tremendous. Maybe it was too powerful. So, I deleted it. And people are saying, “Wow, that’s leadership.” And they’re right. Because I’m a leader, and leaders lead.

          Little bit too coherent. And he would never second guess a decision he claims he made.

          Maybe trail off in the middle of a sentence, and then mutter something about the liberals making Twitter delete it? Because everyone is in awe of how much sense he makes, and how right he is all the time.

      He wouldn’t want a repeat of the embarrassing ‘hamberder’ incident, which haunts him to this day.

    The former president seemingly remembered that violating his gag order by commenting on witnesses could land him in jail

    Oh, he remembered. He just thinks he’s playing 4D chess by tweeting then deleting because “it doesn’t count.”

      I really don’t think he can retain anything he finds boring for more then 5 minutes. He’s not playing imagery 4D chess. He really is that stupid.

    Dumbfuck has never heard the term ‘surprise witness.’ And this one wasn’t even a surprise. Of course she testified.
