By Carl WeinschenkThere are dozens of famous Donald Trump quotes. It’s hard to believe they are real. Well, in the following quiz there are eight real Donald Trump quotes and two phonies (not counting the bonus). Which are the fakes? Here’s a hint: One of the phonies are in the top five and the other is in the bottom five. The bonus may or may not be real.
I’ll contribute $20 to Democratic candidates in honor of the first five folks to identify the fakes. Answer below in the comments or via Gmail. If via gmail, please let me know if I have permission to put you on the free email list.
Here are the quotes:
2. “I wouldn’t mind a little bow. In Japan, they bow. I love it. Only thing I love about Japan.”
3. “Do you think the left wingers really care about the people? It’s a shell game. They know if they say just the right things to just the right people they will benefit enormously. I don’t want to say financially, but take a look at the facts.”
4. “We will see the return of jobs to our shores, and we will win so much, you might even get tired of winning.”
5. “I love the inflation.”
6. “Show me someone without an ego, and I’ll show you a loser.”
7. “If it doesn’t blow, you can forget about television for that night.”
8. “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
9. “Our enemies quickly become our friends when they see that we have all the money, all the power and all the brains.”
10. “They never talk about the environment anymore. You know why? … It’s one of the great scams of all time.”
Bonus quote (or fake): “The Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I’m ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country.”
