Are You Ready for Silliness Today? Donald Trump and Gloria Allred conduct dueling mid-week press conferences.
I swear, today’s going to be like wandering into the Ink & Paint Club and stumbling upon two cartoon ducks playing dueling pianos.
Donald Trump’s Donald, I guess…because Gloria Allred sure is Daffy.
We now know that all Gloria’s got is some attention-seeking woman who is still bitter about her divorce twenty-five years ago…and she wants the gag order lifted off the divorce so she can talk about how Mitt Romney is her husband’s friend and somehow he helped “screw her over” in the divorce settlement. The woman got a hefty $5 million settlement back in the day (which would be about $13 million in today’s dollars) but blew it all on attorneys’ fees trying to renegotiate the divorce every two years ever since. Oh, and she’s also been living in a $5,000 a month rental unit in the most expensive part of New York City she could find. And, yet, she cries about not having any money left.
It’s still a mystery what The Donald is going to play on his piano for us today, though.
The rumor is that it’s just the divorce papers that Michelle had drawn up in 2000 when she threatened to leave Barack because he was not keeping his part of the deal and making her rich. Remember, she agreed to marry him and be his beard to cover up for him being gay because his promise would be that he’d make a lot of money and take her places in high society. She wanted to be the Senator’s wife…or the Governor’s wife…or First Lady of the United States. After he lost his bid for Bobby Rush’s seat in Congress, Michelle thought she’d married the wrong gay black man and was probably really jealous of Jada Pinkett Smith.
I don’t think the divorce papers have anything in them related to Obama being gay, or describing his Bathhouse Barry antics…but maybe they do. Michelle is unstable and if she did this on her own without Jesse Jackson’s counsel, she might have insisted on being nasty and mean-spirited in those papers. It seems to be her default approach to life. Lawyers will end up putting whatever you want into filings if a client really insists on something, by the way. I’ve gone after a few cyberstalkers that I acquired in the last few years and as a client I essentially said what I wanted in the complaints against these people…and the lawyers then took my rough drafts and just filled in all the legal jargon and put it into the correct format for filing. I bet Michelle did this too, if she really put divorce papers together. She may have been angry enough to put all sorts of personal things in there. People get very emotional when they finally take the steps to sue someone for something.
I don’t know how Trump would have gotten his hands on this, though.
I’m still hoping he does something with Obama’s college transcripts or his applications to Columbia and Harvard where he identified himself as an Indonesian citizen in order to gain admission and financial aid as a foreign student (since he did not have the grades to qualify otherwise and needed this supercharged affirmative action boost to get in). THAT would be interesting.
I guess we’ll know soon what’s going to happen from both of the cartoon ducks who intend to entertain us today.
************************************************************
UPDATE: Ha! It is about the transcripts. Good on Trump.
Trump offered $5 million to a charity of Bathhouse Barry’s choice if he asks Columbia and Harvard to release his college applications and if he also releases his passport records. The deadline for compliance is Halloween.
What would be REALLY fun is if Trump already had the applications and would release them on November 1st if Obama didn’t do it himself. It would be a lot of fun if Trump had a second act to this…because otherwise, why bother with the Halloween deadline?

Kevin, did you see Dana Loesch’s piece on this subject last night, documenting posts by a Huff poster claiming to be the woman in question?
http://danaloeschradio.com/something-interesting-to-note-in-the-allredstemberg-story/
I read a lot of the posts myself, and assuming the poster is really who she claims to be, oy.
Sounds like a bitter ex-wife & she admitted they need to do “anything” to re-elect Obama. I contest she is the sick one and she knows NOTHING of Obama’s associates or “bodies.” Let’s open that can of worms!
My brother is divorced and his ex-wife is a nutjob too. She thinks that anyone who testified against her in the divorce is crazy and evil and if any of them tried to run for office, she’d probably hire Gloria Allred and try to make a few bucks as well. This is a non-starter. It’s not like she’s ROMNEY’s ex-wife who would know where the bodies are buried. She’s just p.o.’d that she can’t live the luxurious lifestyle that she’d have if she’d stayed married to Mr. Staples. Bitter angry clinger, this one.
Perfect timing! If Obama does not come clean then it shows that he would rather hide the truth than help a charity in addition to taking 5M from his foe Donald Trump. Simply genius! Look how much Obama has lied about Lybia. Caught in a black and white bold face lie. I love email. This make Watergate seem so trivial.
Trump did say on Twitter, after he announced when he’d make the announcement, that all speculation to this point regarding what his announcement will be is wrong (I’m assuming he’s mainly talking about the divorce thing, since that’s the one being talked about the most).
I’m morbidly curious, slightly horrified, and mildly amused. Whatever it is, I hope it is something so undeniably bad Obama that in spite of the media’s best efforts to spin it, they just can’t and the citizens of this country will see the current Resident of the WH for the joke that he is.
Maybe Trump was married to her too?
According to the Boston Phoenix writer @dbernstein , the hearing will continue tomorrow. Stemberg is indeed the person represented here. And Daffy had no comment.
TMZ has the story anyway, though (gee, a leak, I’m so shocked!). She is alleging he lied under oath about Staples’ value. http://ww w.tmz.com/2012/10/24/mitt-romney-tom-stemberg-staples-lied-perjury-divorce-case-maureen/
So stupid.
Yep! 25 YEARS later he “lied” about the value that Staples might have in an IPO. In hindsight, I guess you could say that about every IPO valuation. This woman is a loon and people (and the media) would be smart to ignore this story.
Even if it is admissions paperwork that shows President Obama was not a US citizen (eg a foreign passport number or something equally damning), all the Marxists will do is screech that it just proves that the Constitution is a silly thing since adhering to it would have prevented the “light bringer” from becoming President and that the Obama is the perfect president since he is a “citizen of the world”. My leftist friends and family will shrug and say “who cares”. And in the mean time Glor(y hole)ia will get 24×7 coverage with her “Romney made me feel bad story”.
The real story here? No one cares what either Trump or Gloria say. The moonbats will vote Obama, the sane will vote Romney. And in America the moonbats may bark louder, but the sane have the numbers. President Romney, savor the sound of that.
Unfortunately, I’m not able to upload a picture of a Colorado bumper sticker, but you may want to do so. You’ll see how someone has reinterpreted Obama’s Forward motto in a way that also visualizes his secret life.
http://legalinsurrection.com/2012/10/a-picture-is-worth-a-thousand-words/
Legal Insurrection made a huge mistake posting that and please don’t encourage folks to spread that around. It is almost identical to the stick-figure icons on the signs that loon Rev. Fred Phelps’ family carry when they protest at the funerals of servicemen in America. There is no Republican I know who would want to be associated with that insanity, I’m sure you don’t either.
oh Steve, grow up… you sound like an Obot
and one more thing… Fred Phelps is a DEMOCRAT….. did you get that?
I can save everybody time and effort. Romney doesn’t lie. Next!
PS Can’t wait for the Trump Dump.
Bitter ex-wife runs through her $5 million dollar settlement and twenty years later thinks Allred is her savior. Boy did she pick the wrong mouthpiece.
The Khalidi tape would be real nice.
I think I read on TMZ last night that she got an awful lot of stock in her settlement. Apparently, she sold most of it before the company went public, probably not having much faith in her ex husband’s ability to grow the company and succeed. But, that’s her own fault, her poor decision. I also read that she wanted a better settlement similar to the ones another ex wife and a girlfriend received. You’d think a woman going through a divorce with a man who could conceivably become very wealthy, even 25 years or so ago, would have secured the service of an independent financial analyst, a tax accountant and a tax lawyer to help her get the best settlement. Relying on free advice and nosy people who think they are helping falls in the category of “you get what you pay for”.
Beside her cash settlement she also received 500,000 shares of Staples stock. Value today $5.6 million. Some people never learned how to handle money.
Here’s Trump
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgOq9pBkY0I&feature=youtu.be&hd=1
Here we go!
From Drudge:
“TRUMP TO OBAMA: Release college, passport applications, I’ll donate $5 million to charity of choice…”
According to Drudge: Release your college transcripts and I’ll (Trump) donate $5 million to the charity of choice.
Seems a little anti-climatic. And easily dismissed by Obama camp. But it did get everyone talking about the Donald for a few days. And gets people thinking about what’s in the transcripts.
Or perhaps he knows more but has been asked to keep it quiet, or is holding it for something else, or is running interference against All Red and will only release the info if she’s successful in getting the records unsealed.
Oh well, back to work.
Nope, sorry, but Trump’s “big announcement” disappoints. Unless he already HAS this information and is prepared to release it. But otherwise it’s a non-starter. All Obama has to do is laugh it off, call Trump a “birther” and move on. The media will gladly go along. Now, if Trump had said he already HAS this info and will release it on 10/31, it might be different. But the Obama team will merely call this a publicity stunt, which, frankly, it is.
And I guess Gloria’s big case has been continued to tomorrow. As I read more, it sounds like the Romney testimony had to do with the valuation of Staples before it went public. Well, heck, we just saw with Facebook that the market is so unpredictable that investment bankers think a company is worth X-million dollars and the next day it’s worth $100 million less. Or Krispy Kreme that went public at $17 per share and within a day or two was up to $75.
All Romney has to say is that he was working with the best information available to him at the time. Nobody can prove anything different. Allred’s client has been trying to extort money from her ex for quite some time. She’s P.O’d that his second wife and mistress got much better settlements than she did, although clearly hers was based on his net worth AT THE TIME OF THE DIVORCE, and he should not have to go back and renegotiate every time he makes more money – although angry ex-wives who divorced too soon do this all the time. This is between Stemberg and the nutty ex-wife (she wants more money to lay for 3X per week psychiatrist appointments, among other things). Sounds like she’s blackmailing Romney to intervene on her behalf with her ex-hubby. This is actually the SECOND time she has done this to Romney, the last time being in the 1990′s when she sent her son:

To be more specific, Trump wants not just the college and passport applications – he also wants the BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
And there’s a deadline: Oct. 31.
WTVR has pulled back from its original erroneous headline.
It’s amended its story to just the college and passport documents.
http://wtvr.com/2012/10/24/donald-trumps-big-reveal-against-pres-barack-obama/
Trump is a tool.
Now what??!
https://twitter.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/261142652253270018
Mr. Trump is a master at this. A modern day PT Barnum. If he says he’s going to sneeze at noon, they’ll show up to watch him sneeze!
He can drag this out for a week before he says a thing. A twitter here, a twitter there, a couple of talk radio interviews where he deftly says nothing but talks an awful lot, a couple of tv appearances where he does the same. He can keep everyone hanging and waiting with baited breath. And, all the while, the dems will be dumping on sites like daily beast and politico anything and everything that they think he can hit them with in these last couple of days.
Trump may have played a clever ruse here. The real “announcement” was to get the story of Obama’s rocky marriage and depression out there as the “speculative announcement” preceding the real announcement. Noboby knew anything about that story — until now! So, you announce you’re going to announce, get the media to push the story you want told, then come through with a rather anemic “announcement” that doesn’t do you any harm. Mission Accomplished.
Trump is a moron. The media will spend 2 minutes on this
and its over.
Why does he keep trying to make himself relevant in this
election? It is degrading (to him).
Trump should have opened a pledge website so we could all add to it by pledging 10 bucks or so. Hard to turn down so much money for needy people. Would make Obama look small.
I am amazed that Trump doesn’t know that Bammy doesn’t have a charitable bone in his body.
Audrey, I owe you a very big apology — in reading all the comments way too fast, I thought at first that your “Bammy” was “Romney”. I was ready to really unload on you, but then looked again and realized it was definitely “Bammy”, big as life. How embarrassing! Guess the old saying is true about a person’s eyes beginning to give out after age 25 or so . . .
I think this is brilliant.How many people even know that O hasn’t released any of this information?Perhaps they would now ask why he won’t.
Trump doing the job the LSM wouldn’t do. And maybe he does have these things and will release them after Oct 31 and say,”You had your chance.You could have been honest with the American people and had five million dollars to give to the poor.”
I think Trump is a patriot.
A bust, as expected!
Trump has nothing, never had anything, is a big waste of time and a diverter of patriots’ energy.
With Trump it’s all about Trump. Calling attention to himself — oh look, what a coincidence, it’s TV show season time again! — is what this bloviator is about.
Here is my take on this! Trump is implying that he has Obama’s official college records which will show he applied as a foreign student for financial assistance. he also wants the passport because that will show he traveled to pakistan as a foreign student. now here’s the rub. when he was moved to indonesia and adopted by lolo sotereo he supposedly lost his american citizenship, which according to folks like phil berg, he has never renewed. that is why the passport is important because Obama was of age at that time and can’t blame his parents etc. this could be a potential source of credibility issues etc… and just in time to make some of those swing state voters question him and vote the challenger. moreover, by offering the charity, as some have sad, it can be made to appear that he’s not even willing to give 5million to a charity on ‘such an easy issue to diffuse.’ Remember, Trump is talking about transparency. just some thoughts! thanks for the indulgence.
My first thought was that Trump has the documents already and is setting Obama up. I think he will reveal the docs on Nov 1st when Obama skirts form the issue. Why else do all this? Aside form the publicity I mean? I think at the end of the day Trump cares more about this country than gaining some publicity out of a contentious presidential election. I know he is media whore-ish, but I really don’t think he would put his own needs/ego ahead of the country in this case.
No I think he already has those docs up his sleeve! Then whammo!!
I think Trump was being strategic. Just like Romney not getting on Barry like we wanted to in the 3rd debate. I am sure Barry was confused about what approach Romney took in the debate. And Barry showed his anger, arrogance and immaturity.
Anyone else catch Trump’s snarky hit at Obama in his announcement?
I am very honored to have gotten President Obama to release his long form birth certificate, or whatever it was that he released.
Trump just wants to live in Obama’s mind until Oct. 31st.
He should have offered $1 million for photos taken of Obama at Men’s Country. That would have tightened a few Washington sphincters.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/allreds-october-surprise-heres-what-it-looks-like-the-famed-lawyers-romney-allegations-will-entail/
Looks like someone’s got an agenda to promote. Shocker.
Actually, I heard today that the romney attorneys said he didn’t care if the testimony was released. Although I remember seeing the name of that firm he is using somewhere that made me surprised he was using them.
The left is so full of hypocrites, there is a laundry list of stuff the democrats have done and nary a yawn from anyone.
If Romney had testified that the stock was going to be worth an enormous amount and then the company went belly up, which with a starter company is quite possible, then everyone would be saying he lied about that and look it went bankrupt.
If she was so hell bent on getting money out of this guy she should have paid people to do a forensic examination of him and all his finances right down to the value of the clothes in his closet and then she would have known what kind of a divorce settlement to request. If anything she maybe should be blaming her own attorneys for not advising her to do this.
If they open these records though, bet tons of divorce attorneys in Massachusetts will be very upset as they will be setting a precedent.
I bet the republicans can think of many many many dems whose divorce records they would like unsealed. It will result in a ridiculous avalanche of papers being filed to dig into divorce records of the dems and imagine the treasure trove the republicans will find there.
Well, kevin was right about the documents trump is looking for.
I think that Trump has a lot of stuff in his bag of tricks. I also think Trump is playing a “high stakes game” here.
My impression of Trump is different from some others. Deep down inside he’s a Queens boy, people forget that about him. That means something, it means a lot.
The Republicans should hire some hot babe like the other Megan Fox to read the stats about Afghanistan especially that suicides in our military now outnumber our huge number of casualities. It’s a national disgrace. Most people would tune into see the hot babe.
Three things come to mind about Trump’s offer: Mr. Trump is a shrewd negotiator. This is one of those situations where it’s “heads I win, tails I win.” I look for bo to dismiss this offer and you can be sure that he will not allow himself to get into situations where reporters can ask him for his response to Mr. Trump. I pose the challenge to bo’s rich (1%) friends: I dare you to pony up $10 million to a charity if you come on board to urge bo not to release his records. Why? Because this would validate in the minds in American voters that bo absolutely has something to hide, and it is in particular, his rich hollywood friends would also know that they need to protect what is obviously devastating to Americans. This way, bo will know that his friends know that he’s a fraud. That’s what I mean – Trump’s offer is “heads I win, tails I win.”
You called it!
Donald is making the rounds. He was on hannity and now on with Greta. Honestly, I like Greta, I’ll watch her more than any of the others but tonight, tonight I’m very disappointed in her. Why? Because my radar came up during the trump interview and I thought to myself “oh no, not Greta, greta’s not going to be an obama team member tonight is she?” I really hope Fox puts the unedited exchange up tonight so you can all watch. Trump even said “i grew up in NYC real estate” meaning nothing would surprise him, nothing and that is a truism you can take to the bank.
Anyway, Greta did make sure it wasn’t the usual Donald Trump interview and after you all get to watch it, I’d be interested to know what you think?
I am hoping beyond hope that Trump is not a dumbass…and he has the proof. If he does have the proof, Obama is trapped. His only options are:
1. Come clean
2. Falsify the documents
If he comes clean, he looks pathetic…and shows that the crazy right wingers were correct all along. If he falsifies the docs, Trump has the proof they are forgeries. And he’s committed a felony.
Remember when Romney was campaigning in Michigan and made the supposed gaffe “Nobody doubts where I was born?”. It wasn’t a gaffe. It was a message to Obama.
