“‘Bunch of BS’: Attendee at Trump’s CEO Meeting Refutes Media Reports: ‘The attendee who spoke with The Daily Signal said Sorkin’s interpretation is wrong. (The Daily Signal granted the attendee anonymity to speak candidly about the private meeting.) ‘There was never a moment of meandering,’ the attendee said. ‘He was focused. In fact, he received a loud ovation at the end.’ The attendee added: ‘There was not one CEO who wasn’t impressed with what they heard from Trump. Everybody was clapping.’ Sorkin did not immediately reply to The Daily Signal’s request for comment,'” posted convicted felon former President Trump’s Truth Social account on Tuesday.
The anonymous quote comes in response to CNBC/New York Times finance guy Andrew Ross Sorkin’s recent reporting on CEOs who attended a meeting with the fat fuck last week who “said that [Trump] was remarkably meandering, could not keep a straight thought [and] was all over the map,” and that “These were people who I think might have been actually predisposed to [Trump but] actually walked out of the room less predisposed,” during a bit on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” Sorkin also told MSNBC’s Morning Joe that “at one point, he discussed his plan to bring the corporate tax rate down from 21 percent to 20 percent and was asked about why he had chosen 20 percent. And he said, ‘Well, it’s a round number.’ That unto itself had a number of CEOs shaking their heads.”
Separately on Tuesday Variety editor Ramin Setoodeh, author of a new book on Donald’s reality TV career Apprentice in Wonderland, backed up Sorkin’s reporting in an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, telling her that “‘meandering’ and ‘confusing’ is right… He goes from one story to the next. He struggles with the chronology of events. He seems very upset that he wasn’t respected by certain celebrities in the White House. And then he’d go to a story about” the stupid reality show.
Setoodeh went on to say that Trump “confidently told me and declared that Joan Rivers voted for him when he ran for president,” adding that Joan Rivers died in 2014. “On some days, I have the feeling he has no idea whom he is even talking to. At our second meeting, he tells me he couldn’t remember sitting down with me, even though it was only a few months earlier.”
