Trump rips Democrats' 'reality show', says Bloomberg spent $500M to 'get embarrassed by Pocahontas'
Trump is on a roll. He’s doing a great job as our President and it’s been great to see him campaigning and speaking out west. He makes awesome points about Sanders and Warren and saves the best for the truly evil and vile racist misogynist, Mike gun grabbing Bloomberg.

President Trump riffed on several of the Democratic presidential primary contenders before a fired-up crowd in Las Vegas Friday, one day before Nevada Democrats caucus to determine their choice to be the party's standard-bearer.
In his remarks, Trump focused former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, whose performance in Wednesday's debate has been widely criticized.
"I think he's gone," Trump initially said of the 78-year-old media mogul's chances, before adding: "You know what? He'll spend another $500 million. I spent $70 million and I won."

"Mini Mike so far has spent almost $500 million in order to get embarrassed by Pocahontas," he remarked, using his favorite nickname for Warren.
Trump also characterized the senator from Massachusetts as "mean" and claimed she has a "nervous energy" on the debate stage.
"'I got him, I want to see those agreements -- you open up those agreements,'" the president said, impersonating Warren's challenge to Bloomberg over non-disclosure agreements signed by former employees of his media company.

While Trump was on stage, Bloomberg announced that he will allow three female former employees to be released their non-disclosure agreements that were signed "to address complaints about comments they said I had made."
Trump joked that Bloomberg was so upset with his own performance earlier in the week that he "went backstage [and] fired a lot of people." -- 'How the hell did you get me into this?'"
Trump then referenced his friendship with "The Apprentice" creator Mark Burnett -- who also produced CBS' "Survivor" franchise.
"Mark Burnett said this is the greatest reality show in history," Trump claimed, adding that someone could take "The Apprentice," combine it with "Survivor" and "multiply" them by 10,000 and still fall short of the show that the Democratic presidential candidates are putting on.

Trump also criticized former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, referring to him as "Alfred E. Neuman" and claiming the 38-year-old had presided over a city that "went to hell."
He also saved some criticism for Tom Steyer, who helped lead the charge to impeach the president.
"Tom Steyer -- Mr. Impeachment -- How did that work out, Tom? Thank you very much for the great poll numbers," Trump riffed. "This schmuck spends $250 million, and he ends up with one-third of one percent in Iowa ... I never heard of this guy."

President Trump bashed a reported intelligence assessment that Russian President Vladimir Putin wants him to win reelection in November as "disinformation" being peddled by "crazy" Democrats, as he held his third rally in three days Friday afternoon in Las Vegas.
"Doesn't he want to see who the Democrat is going to be?" Trump said of Putin. "Wouldn’t he rather have Bernie [Sanders] who honeymooned in Moscow?"
BERNIE SANDERS DISAVOWS REPORTED RUSSIAN EFFORTS TO HELP HIS CAMPAIGN
Rallying in Nevada the day before Democrats hold their caucuses, Trump dismissed the assessment reportedly delivered from his own intelligence team to members of Congress as another vendetta from House Intelligence Committee Chairman. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., -- who Trump referred to as "pencil neck" -- after their investigations against him over alleged Russia collusion and withholding of aid from Ukraine failed to result in the president's removal from office.
"It's disinformation," Trump said. "It's the only thing they're good at."
"These people are crazy," Trump said of the Democrats, predicting that the Putin preference narrative will become the focus of a new probe.
After news of the intelligence briefing on Russia meddling to Congress was reported, Trump announced that his acting director of national intelligence, Joseph Maguire, will be replaced by outspoken Trump loyalist, Richard Grenell, the ambassador to Germany.
A day after Trump's longtime ally Roger Stone was sentenced in federal court to 40 months in prison, Trump also lamented the justice system isn't working for everybody.
“We're trying to get fairness for a certain person," Trump said, though not mentioning Stone by name. "He's been treated very unfairly. A man who had a juror who was a radical anti-Trump person.”
REPUBLICAN REVENGE: RECORD GOP FIELD FORMS, ON 2020 MISSION TO TAKE DOWN ‘SOCIALISTS’
The president opened his rally by inviting members of the “Miracle on Ice” U.S. Olympic hockey team on stage to mark the 40th anniversary of their victory over the Soviet Union in 1980.
Trump touted a very unified Republican Party and a booming economy that has benefited all corners of the economy.
The president spent a section of his wide-ranging speech talking about Hispanic-Americans, touting their low unemployment rate under his watch and said they understand the need for border protections better than anyone.
“I love Hispanics!” Trump said.
“Who in this audience is Hispanic?” Trump said to cheers. “We’re doing great.”
Trump, looking ahead to the general election, also predicted he'll retake the state he lost in 2016 -- by wide margins.
“With your help this November, we're going to defeat the radical socialist Democrats, and we are going to win Nevada, in a big beautiful landslide," Trump said.
Trump lost Nevada to Hillary Clinton by two percentage points in 2016, but the Trump campaign is working to flip the Silver State in November.
Trump repeatedly mocked Democrats for their botched Iowa caucuses and predicted more technical trouble on Saturday when divided Democrats head to the Nevada caucuses to pick their 2020 nominee.
"They can't count the votes," Trump said of the still contested Iowa caucuses, adding that Nevada Democratic Party caucuses also seem to have "messed up" computers and problems with vote tallying.
Trump took aim at his Democratic rivals, mocking former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg for taking a beating from Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on the debate stage.
“She’s mean, right? That face," Trump said with a scowl. "She wanted to get him."
Trump, holding his neck, said Bloomberg was "gasping for breath" on the debate stage where he took incoming from all his opponents.
"Mini Mike, I think he’s gone," Trump added.
Trump said front-runner Bernie Sanders is "too emotional" and mocked former South Bend, Ind. Mayor Pete Buttigieg as "Alfred E. Neuman," the fictitious cartoon mascot of Mad Magazine.
Trump did an imitation of a flustered former Vice President Joe Biden, groaning and shaking his fist.
“Biden is angry," Trump said. "That’s what happens when you can’t get the words out.”
(Biden has been open about suffering from a stutter.)
Trump went after former President Barack Obama for telling the American people if they liked their health insurance they can keep it, and joked that he should also be impeached.
"We'll do a belated impeachment!" Trump said.
The excitement was building hours before Trump arrived. Fans started lining up for the rare daytime rally as early as 3 a.m. local time Thursday, KVVU reported. By Friday morning, hundreds in red caps and Trump gear were camped out in front of the Las Vegas Convention center with tents and sleeping bags hoping to get a good spot to see the president. Trump has used his Vegas hotel as a base during his West Coast fundraising and campaigning swing. He kicked off his trio of rallies in three days in Phoenix on Wednesday before delivering a fiery performance Thursday in Colorado Springs.
One fan traveled from the Arizona rally straight to Las Vegas to get one of the first spots in line to see Trump again.
"I went to the Phoenix rally last night and when it was over I was so, I had so much energy I was like, I can make it to Vegas tonight," Blake Marnell told Fox 5 outside the convention center.
TRUMP SLAMS DEMS, OSCARS, BRAD PITT AS RALLY BLITZ MOVES TO COLORADO
The Las Vegas rally gives Trump counter-programming in Nevada as Democrats have been crisscrossing the state this week in a final push for votes before Saturday's caucuses.
Democratic leaders have expressed optimism that the Nevada caucuses, which are run by the state party, will go much smoother than in Iowa. Technical and reporting problems in Iowa meant votes couldn't be tallied on caucus night and results are still being contested. Buttigieg currently has a narrow state delegate equivalent lead over Sanders, I-Vt., but both camps are seeking targeted recounts.
Sanders went on to a narrow victory against Buttigieg in New Hampshire and polling in Nevada suggests he's poised to be a clear winner there on Saturday.
Nevada Democrats scrapped plans to use a smartphone app and planned instead to use iPads to submit results through a Google web form. However, on the eve of the caucuses on Friday, Nevada Democrats said caucus organizers will forgo the Google form altogether and precinct results will be called in using a traditional telephone hotline.
NEVADA DEMS WILL ABANDON GOOGLE FORM, RELY ON PHONE FOR CAUCUS RESULTS AMID TECH FEARS
Republicans in Nevada aren't even holding caucuses, in a sign of support for Trump.
Trump relished trolling his Democratic opponents this week and said he doesn't care who is the nominee because he'll defeat them all.

Like his wild rally in Colorado Springs, Colo., on Thursday, Trump took another shot at the movie "Parasite" saying the South Korean film shouldn't have gotten the Oscar for best picture earlier this month, arguing it should have been relegated to the foreign film category. He also took another shot at Hollywood actor Brad Pitt, calling him a "stiff."
In a more tender moment of the rally, Trump marveled at his 13-year-old son, Barron, who he called a "genius" with computers.
The crowd started chanting, "Barron, Barron, Barron!"
"Wow," Trump said of the affection for his youngest son. "He’s going to like that. He’s a good boy. He’s a tall boy. I’ll tell you that."
Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich contributed to this report.
Trump is on a big time roll. He’s moving way up in the key polls and is more approved of than. Obama was at this stage of his first term. He’s doing a great job as our President and it’s been great to see him campaigning and speaking out here in the west. I like what he did abut water in California. He makes awesome points about Sanders and Warren and saves the best for the truly evil and vile racist misogynist, Mike the soda limiting gun grabbing Bloomberg.
Bloomberg is a master debater.
He keeps calling her Pocahontas and is guaranteeing that not one Native American will vote for him.
I love it when white people decide what indians will think.
cracks me up
He's not. He's chastising whites trying to cash in on suffering where they aren't a recognizable minority and have never been disadvantaged.
Here, just change the names.
Remember when Hiliary was a down-home gal from Scranrockago City?
She's so known for it, here's a description of a gunstock:
"The black carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer furniture is relatively lightweight and more adjustable than Elizabeth Warren’s ancestry."
I'm an Indian and I won't vote for him nor will the majority of Indians.
His history of bigotry and demeaning comments about Indians is part of the record. At one point Trump and Roger Stone (yeah that Stone that was sentenced to 40 months in prison) was fined $250,000 by the NY State Lobbying Commission for their underhanded and illegal tactics used against Indian tribes.
never said the majority would.
I replied to a comment that said...
and that is complete bs.
so, better luck next time
I don't need luck I just called him out for what he is...
Cheers.
and the lying white democrat who claimed indian heritage for votes?? (rhetorical)
trumps share of indian voters will be bigger in 2020 (deeds not words)
but, im sure it will be said that indians hate trump for that also.... LOL
the only thing that bothers me? I can't grow a beard.
yepp, a democrat pretending to be indian for votes is kind of stupid.
Vs the lying Republican that claimed he was Swedish rather than the truth that he was German because it was better for business....LMAO
Probably not but there is plenty more that will cause Indians not to vote for Trump...
It sounds like a personal problem. Perhaps you should check your CIBC again.
Cheers
the sliding conversation does not work with me.

Too bad, since you can't prove it wrong.

Well the rest of what was said was spot on...
There is a reason that I use that avatar. But perhaps I should not have included ALL natives in my comment - just most of them, while others can live with the insults and ignoring of their rights and destruction of their environment.
When does he have time to work? He is always holding a rally.
He has done great work. See:
If one considers going on a month long massacre and firing anyone not a loyalist great work...
That massacre as you call it should have happened long ago. It was a long time coming.
