Trump Made Crass Jokes About Death of Rally Attendee in Leaked Recording

[RandySF]

Donald Trump was reportedly caught on tape turning the grieving widow of a man who died at one of his rallies into a source of amusement for his uber-wealthy dinner guests.

The recording, obtained by The Guardian, apparently comes from a private meal Trump held Aug. 10 in Aspen, Colorado. In it, the Republican presidential nominee reportedly recalled a meeting with the wife of Corey Comperatore, the man who was killed by shots fired at Trump by Thomas Crooks at a Pennsylvania rally in July.

“So they’re going to get millions of dollars but the woman, the wife, this beautiful woman, I handed her the check—we handed her the check—and she said, ‘This is so nice, and I appreciate it, but I’d much rather have my husband.’ Now I know some of the women in this room wouldn’t say the same,” Trump reportedly said. “At least four couples here would have been thrilled, actually.”

The dinner, which Trump reportedly flew in for in on a private jet once owned by disgraced financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, was held at the $38 million home of art collectors and investors John and Amy Phelan, with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), gambling mogul Steve Wynn, and billionaire Thomas Peterffy also in attendance. There were about 100 attendees at the event, which required couples to pony up $500,000 to serve on the host committee or at least $25,000 to attend at all.

1. What a pig (R)

No compassion. No caring. No class. Moral corruption. He's a total republicon.

[TwilightZone]

2. One more occurrence that would have doomed any other campaign.

There have been hundreds, if not thousands.

I wonder if the attendees thought it was amusing.

[Conjuay]

39. "But that isn't what he meant..."

[OneGrassRoot]

3. I just read that he is going back to Butler, with Musk, and with that family. n/t

[newdeal2]

4. One thing is consistent about him

It’s all about the money. He’s not a sucker like everyone else

[nikatnyte]

21. It's about the money...and adoration.

His ego needs to be fed even more than his wallet. That's why he demands sycophantic, humiliating obeisance from his staff and followers and obsesses over crowd sizes.

[MagickMuffin]

5. This sick "joke" was reported at the time it happened

He’s a monster not fit for human consumption!

[The Madcap]

7. No need for him to avoid the ocean...

Even the sharks couldn't stomach him.

[progressoid]

25. Yep - and nobody cared.

[no_hypocrisy]

6. Trump doing bad Rob Snyder stand-up.

[Aristus]

46. There's no other kind of Rob Schneider stand-up.

n/t

[JI7]

8. Didn't he actually tell this joke at a rally also ?

I know I heard this for sure before but not sure if I read it or heard him say it. But it's just one of many things where the media gives him a pass but would have made a huge thing out of it if it was said by someone else.

[eppur_se_muova]

22. Yes, I seem to recall not only reading that on DU but seeing the video -- which had to be MSNBC.

Here we go --

(The video clip on that page doesn't show the rally)

[bluesbassman]

9. He has proved time and time again there is no low he can sink to that his adoring cult members will reject.

And they wonder WHY we think they're deplorable. Couldn't possibly be because that's exactly what they are, now could it.

[Johonny]

10. Melania shifts uncomfortably in her seat

[rubbersole]

14. She agreed.

A girl can dream...

[RT Atlanta]

11. OMG and "crass" doesnt begin to describe it

'not fit for office'

'disgraced former president'

[bluestarone]

12. Just gotta say Hillary was 100% correct when

She called TFG and his bunch a basket full of DEPLORABLE'S!!!!! THEY have proved her words correct, time and time again.

[Kid Berwyn]

13. Gee. Grifter had just kissed the poor man's firefighting gear.

[Skittles]

29. GROSS!

I can see his fishlips even in shadow

[Kid Berwyn]

35. Truly. It's a sphincter.

He's got one on each end and both spew ca-ca.

[yaesu]

15. And yet the family of said rally attendee is now campaigning with the orange pig. nt

[Captain Zero]

31. Sounds like Trump gave them a check.

I figured there had to be a quid pro quo or an NDA

[SunSeeker]

41. That check was not his money! It was from donations to the widow!

[Bev54]

16. Sick fuck

[Figarosmom]

17. Why would anyone

Expect anything different?

[tavernier]

18. The only thing that shocks me

is that he gave her a check. Are there pictures?

[wss2001]

42. If he did where did the money come from?

I can’t imagine him giving her a check. If he did I can’t imagine it’s his own money. Also there must be strings attached like a NDA, like don’t speak about what you saw that day

[Drummer1]

19. Yes, Mr. Pigshit...

...go back to Butler for a do-over.

[txwhitedove]

20. Gross, and gross again that a humanoid had to pay to dine with all those creepy wierdos. Yuck.

[Deuxcents]

33. They didn't have to go..they could have made better use of their money.

His cult followers are keeping him from going to jail where he belongs

[Cheezoholic]

23. BoBo had 25k to show up? Hell she has to stroke someone to take her to a movie!! n/t

[generalbetrayus]

24. She probably thinks she has Colorado's Congressional District 4 all sewn up

because it is so strongly RethugliKlan. She may even have learned to rent a motel room with campaign contributions to stroke someone while watching the Playboy Channel.

[struggle4progress]

26. I over-estimated him

[dflprincess]

27. I think we can all agree that Melania would rather have the money

Than her husband.

[Skittles]

28. his fans, like everyone else in his life, are mere props to boost his ego

Trump is disgusting beyond belief.

[lame54]

30. Does she now want to meet with Biden?

[Captain Zero]

34. Probably Not unless she gets a check

How much was the check Trump wrote her?

[SoFlaBro]

32. Orange Bastard flew on Pedophile Pathways to talk that grimy shit about a widow and her dead husband. Fucking scumbag.

[JoseBalow]

Wonder how the Deceased fan's wife feels about that?

[Harker]

37. Only he knows what suffering is. n/t

[EnergizedLib]

38. All about him

Nobody else

[trickyrick3]

40. Collateral damage

This just further proves that the "assassination" attempt was staged and the fatality was only collateral damage. In their minds, it all could be rectified with a check. What sick people these are!

[onecaliberal]

43. Air the fucking recording for all to hear.

[YoshidaYui]

44. Do you think Trump knows just how much

Of an asshole he is??

[ShazzieB]

49. I don't think so.

I'm sure he knows he's a smart ass, but that's not the same thing as knowing he's an asshole.

A smart ass thinks he's being clever and funny, whether anyone else thinks so or not. Being a smart ass is usually a choice, something people do to get attention and laughs. Some smart asses are very funny (many professional comedians fall into this category); others not so much.

An asshole is someone who thinks he's more important than anyone else, and only his needs and desires matter. A big part of what makes someone an asshole is not knowing (or caring) that they are one (because they don't notice or care how their behavior affects anyone else).

A person can be both (and Trump is), but it's a bad combination. A smart ass who is also an asshole (like Trump) is apt to make "jokes" that are rude, hurtful, and in very poor taste. (Sound familiar?) Anyone who doesn't laugh should watch out, because they may be the butt of the next mean "joke"!

[YoshidaYui]

54. well stated

[ShazzieB]

45. Well, imagine that.

He just can't fathom why a bereaved person would chose to have their loved one back rather than a big pile of $$$$$!

What a vile, disgusting excuse for a human. 🤢

[Blue Owl]

47. A glimpse into the sick fuck's small collection of cells he calls a "brain"

[spanone]

48. He is hands down the lowest form of rancid excrement in human form

humans are more flawed than I could ever imagine...to worship him.
it's beyond insane.

[proud patriot]

50. Depraved

[OAITW r.2.0]

51. True to character.

[RockRaven]

52. Zero sympathy, no rat's ass or fucks to give. The crassness and cruelty of TCF

was why MAGAts became MAGAts in the first place, it was his entire political platform from the beginning, so when that crassness and cruelty is turned around on one of them I don't get the vapors. They are getting exactly what they wanted, just aimed at themselves instead of others. Well that's the bed you made, motherfuckers, sleep in it.

[The Roux Comes First]

53. "Just Joking"!

Heh-heh.

[Rstrstx]

55. Why does Melania come to mind immediately?
