Trump says '86' is a mob term for 'kill him'
President Donald Trump told CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins that "86" is a mob term meaning "kill him," saying "86 47 means 'kill President Trump.'" Elie Honig, a former federal prosecutor who spent years prosecuting mob families, said he never once heard "86" used to mean killing. Historically, "86" has meant to eject or discard someone or something in restaurants and bars, not to order a killing, so Trump’s use of the term to attack James Comey lacks support from mob-prosecution experts and from common usage.
Trump: "'86' is a mob term for 'kill him.' They say 86 him! 86 47 means 'kill President Trump.''James Comey, who is a Dirty Cop, one of the worst, knows this full well! EIGHT MILES OUT, SIX FEET DOWN! Didn’t he also lie to the FBI about this??? I think so! President DJT"
Can he ever just go to bed
Of course that’s what a mob boss would take it to mean…
So then is this shirt on Amazon saying to kill Joe Biden? Is the DOJ going to charge the producer and Amazon for hosting it?
He's confusing "deep six" with 86. 🤡
86 means you’re out of something in a restaurant. It’s not that deep, Gramps 🤷🏻♀️🙄
I have spent 32 years of my life working in restaurants. Our 86 boards were never a list of people we wanted killed.
He's the man who thinks 69 is a coffefe creamer.
It is not a kill term, it's kicking someone out, like a bar or restaurant., from the 80s I believe, & orange menace knows it. Everybody knows it.
I’m so tired of the enstupidification of all public discourse
6-7 is a mob term for dance like you’re jerking off two giraffes while YMCA plays
It makes sense that the origin story he believes is the one involving the mob in Las Vegas.
DJT is admitting how much time he spent with the Mob and the fact that he didn’t report anyone for giving kill orders when he was with them. That’s what we have here.
Trump, typically, is confusing ‘86’ and ‘deep six.’ The latter is a nautical term, which he acknowledges by mentioning depth.
No one is buying it, not even MAGA lol Embarrassing
Vindictive indictment much. He just can’t help himself. What an embarrassment.
A 1995 movie Casino features a scene of a gambler who famously lost $10 million during a high-stakes baccarat session at the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City in May 1990. Trump knows this and he is tying the mob to 86 because he never stops paddling while going over the cliff.
It's commonly used by bar bouncers. Kash and Scary should know what it means.
“….I know mobs…I know the best mobs….no one knows more about the mob than me…mobs come up to me with tears in their eyes and say, sir, thank you for being there for the mob….no president has done more for the mob than Trump….”
I see Trump considers himself an expert on gang symbolism. Remember his claims about Abrego Garcia’s knuckle tattoos?
If Comey was a “dirty cop”, the DOJ would be indicting him for much worse than a meme. They just couldn’t dig up anything worse.
Grab em by the 86
FFS - when do they just put the poison in his underwear like they do in Russia - and you know no republican who do anything about it
I might be wrong but this sounds similar to the Bowling Green Massacre. You know: things that never happened. Release the Epstein files.
Let's 86 that order=Let's cancel that order. Let's cancel Trump too while we're at it!
That doesn't even make any sense. Where in the world is the ocean only 6 feet deep at 8 miles offshore? Such a stupid saying would have never taken off because the first person you tried to say it to would have said, "That's stupid," and you would have never repeated it again.
The orange felon must love this one ;-) "deep six" to stow something away in place where it will be impossible to find. the six refers to six fathoms (or 36 feet), the minimum legal depth for a burial at sea www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?t...
Google:"86"-slang term meaning to discard, cancel, remove, or refuse service, orig from 1930s restaurant/soda-counter jargon to indicate an item is sold out. It is widely used to eject rowdy customers, kill a menu item, or abandon plans. Synonyms include ban, reject, nix, discard, or throw out. 🙄
No one needs to kill Donald Trump, he’s perfectly capable of doing that to himself. We just want him removed from office. 💁🏼♀️
Eight miles out, the water’s a lot deeper than six feet.
Yes, Trump is too dumb and lazy to even google the term "86," but let's talk more about what a chickenshit he is for believing that a bunch of sea shells are an actual threat. He is such a pathetic weakling.
This is where working in the food and beverage industry might have helped him 🙄
86 is for restaurant terms to kick out. If a person is being a problem at that restaurant. They obviously do not know what it means.
I actually thought it was a restaurant term meaning: SOLD OUT! I guess that works for him too. He's a big sellout!
If anyone would know mob language it’s Dump.
"Eight miles out, six feet down" is what is known as a folk etymology, a word origin for which there is no evidence and has been fabricated. While the origin of "86" is obscure, dictionary editors agree that the most likely explanation is that is rhyming slang for "nix."
As usual, Donald Trump is spreading misinformation. It's what he does. He relies on the absence of any critical reasoning skills anywhere in his audience. Just for a moment, ask yourself why a body eight miles out to sea should be six feet down. Wouldn't the concrete shoes sink it to the bottom?
He seems more upset by seashells than by the latest "assassination attempt." In fact, he's never seemed particularly upset by any of the "assassination attempts" against him.
This is Trump's distraction of choice from (partial list): (1) Epstein (2) ICE murders & kidnappings (3) Inflation, gas prices (4) Iran (which was a distraction from (1)) SEE IT FOR WHAT IT IS and GET OUT THE VOTE. This CRIMINAL MUST BE NEUTRALIZED. Then arrested, indicted, tried, IMPRISONED.
Whack. That's one of the words the mob uses. Watch Sopranos FFS.
Well, he is certainly fluent in mob speak.
a) It's established "86" means "cancel/toss" and is diner/bar rhyming slang for "Nix" (as in "nix that order") b) TFG's "definition" is confabulation, a common feature of dementias and particularly frontotemporal dementia c) At this point TFG is less "sundowning" and more "in polar twilight" 1/2
Elect a felon get a mob boss. 🤷🏻♀️
TDS when the only one who’s deranged is DJT.
He’s sundowning. I was reluctant to give into the “dementia theory” but there is just no way this man is not sundowning.
eighty-six 1 No, nix; nothing; there is none left; …. 2 A glass of water … 3 A person who or unable to pay; a person who is not to be served liquor, as at a bar, because he is or will become drunk and/or disorderly. 1944: "[He] was known as n 'eighty-six,'
Evidence he may have once been part of the mob and for all we know, he still may be.
To be fair, Trump would indeed know all the mob terms.
He gonna go after PosoBITCH next?
It's early. But I can't make sense of this.
In all his years in New York, rich people found Trump utterly insufferable. A dolt. They laughed at him. But mobsters really liked him. He fit in with them. Talked like them. Thought like them. Trump aspired to be like them and they aspired to have his mainstream "acceptance".
Crimelord recaps mob lingo while falsely smearing others.
I had never heard of the term 86 before the shells incident. Figures tRump would know the mob term.
The only time I've heard "86'd" was in the bar.
I'm 73. I was told "86th" meant to be kicked out of the bar. 🤷🏻♀️
"I had a feeling that this is what he intended because this is my interpretation." 🤣
What kind of self respecting mobster would sink a body only six feet deep?
Of course '86' is not a mob term, but better yet, why would Trump be familiar with mob terms... is he a mob family? 🤫
Weird, according to this it originated in the hospitality industry, and is slang to mean something is no longer available, or someone is no longer welcome. Which, yeah... There's also a quote from Bill Clinton in here using it as slang for firing someone en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)
I still believe they are confusing 187 with 86. So dumb, but fun fact add up the numbers and you get 25.
Yes. He’s so right. I bury the tomatoes on my burgers 8 miles out and 6 feet deep. That’s exactly what it means. 🙄
It's shorthand for a nonsexual position. One partner is wide awake and the other is lying on their side, asleep. The headboard is at the bottom of the diagram.
So which seashell is the government going to call to testify first?
There goes Dementia Gramps, mixing up his metaphors again. He’s actually managed to confuse “86” with “6 feet under” AND “deep 6”, referring to sailors throwing something overboard in water at least 6 FATHOMS (36 feet) deep, so that it cannot be recovered.
Frequently used terms referring to a mob contract killing. - Whack - Hit - Clip - Pop - Ice - Paint his house. - Take him for a ride. - He needs to sleep with the fishes. - Do a piece of work for me...
More proof it’s all about retribution.
Ok James Cagney movie from 1939
All the FB bots are repeating this, verbatim 🥴
Did his NY mob pals, “Fat Tony” Salerno or Paul Castellano tell him that? Trump's Russian mobster pals wouldn't use that slang American diner term for being sold out of a menu item.
Time to shut down all hospitality..... Send them all to prison for 86ing steaks....
as a person who worked in the service industry while in school, never did the manger say we had to follow a customer that was 86,d (kicked out) and kill him but then again we aren't mafia minded
“That’s why we waited NINE MONTHS to address the issue.”
He thinks nobody cares what he does to Comey.
I am so very tired of all this bullshit. I miss the days of yore when our 'president' wasn't such a vile, despicable, revengeful attention seeking whore
the "8 miles out, 6 feet down" is so strange. Does it mean the mob takes the body 8 miles out to sea and THEN buries it 6 feet under the sea bed. (Note the current territorial claim limit at sea for the US is 12 miles, it was less in the past. not sure when it was -if ever-8 miles)
Says a senile asshole President with ties to the mob.
Takes a mobster to know how mobsters use the number 86.
Oh.My.God VOTE VOTE VOTE 💙 We have to get out of this hell! VOTE
Maybe we should look back to Agent 86 for input.
Seems like “Mobster” Trump knows the lingo pretty well.
Mob boss schools us on mob terms.
This would have been the end of any political career just 20 years ago. Americans need to understand that it’s on them to stop this.
When Comey left the courtroom for the first time, I'm sure he said "I'll just 86 myself" to see if they put him on suicide watch.
Of course, everything is always exclusively about him. He seems to believe that everybody constantly thinks about him at all times. 🤦♀️
86 is not a mob term. It is a restaurant and bar term. For menu items, it means the kitchen is out of the ingredients needed to prepare the dish, so it is temporarily unavailable. For people, as in this case, it means to remove them from premises. To expel them, not kill them.
Trump so much wants to be a mobster he's making up mobster terms.
Considering that Comey pretty much handed the presidency to Trump and started this decade-long hellish timeline, you would think that Donald would be less vengeful.
Somebody please ask him where he gets his familiarity with mob lingo. Pretty please. With sugar on top.
Did the (Exonerated) Central Park Five ever take out full page ads supporting the death penalty for rapists? The closest I could come up with was Yusef Salaam publishing an ad saying in part "Bring back justice and fairness" after Trump was charged with 34 felonies.
He’ll never let go of his mafia obsession, will he?
As a recovering addict and alcoholic, I can tell you I have been 86'd dozens of times, yet here I am, still living my best life. Drew this one in Prison. #Art #Recovery #eightysixfourtyseven
So sad and crazy. Meant no such thing.
So getting 86ed from a club or bar means the mob wants you killed? 🤔
TRUMP: "86. It's a mob term for kill him. You ever seen the movies?" Trump is having (another) delusional episode. I challenge anyone to post a clip from a movie where a mobster says "86 him" meaning to whack him. Go ahead. I'll wait.
Not a movie but... what did Trump mean?
At this point, trying to figure out what he means or which word he is mixing again has become an official science….
As a mobster himself trump surely knows no one says that- except to take an item off the menu.
The only thing I ever heard it used in reference to is getting kicked out of a bar. His affiliations with mobsters his whole life are coming to light now, as it does not mean “hit job” in the normal American vernacular.
Here’s a book from 1940 about mafia rule in NYC in the ‘30s that used court records, business ledgers, first-hand interviews, personal diaries, and testimony and not once was the 86 term used. Other terms were used, but not 86. www.amazon.com/Gang-Rule-Yo...
Gotta wonder how Trump is so familiar with the "8 miles out; 6 feet down" saying. Maybe he's used it a time or two.
In restaurants, 86 means out of something. But, knowing that means that someone once had a job where they were expected to work.
Do you remember this guys? Call me pepperridge farms... because I'll always remember.
Everyone knows what 86 means. Trump just always thinks like a mobster.
Is it any wonder that Trump's polling is in the toilet? www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=69777
Any bar or restaurant workers kill customers that were 86ed?
The treasonous conman, and Mob wannabe, has porridge for brains and maybe he’s thinking “the deep six”, but not 86.
"Sleep with the fishes," yes. "Whack," yes. "Take a dirt nap," yes. "Cement shoes," yes. Fuhgeddaboudit!
A mob term that his crime family must use all the time... I've got a favor to ask
He's admitting his posts showing 86 Biden were threats. Isn't convicting about showing intent?
This needs to stop. America has far greater problems than Trump's petty, retalitory fight with Comey. Thankfully, this high profile case will be a national showcase for the damage Trump is inflicting on the First Amendment and the United States. Loss of freedom of expression affects ALL Americans.
So know Comey is a mob boss 😬🤣🤣🤪
I’ve never seen that in a movie Maybe trump heard it from his or his dads mob connections U don’t build buildings in Manhattan with out dealing with the mafia
I think it's referenced in 'Another 48 Hours' (The biker gang boss guy) "86'em, kill'em." But alas, Donald Trump accuses half the country of being terrorists and enemies, incites political violence, celebrates political violence and death on a near daily basis... 86 Donald Trump asap imo
Not a thing, said Tony Soprano ever.
trump has never lived in real life
Now is a good time to bring up Trump worked with mob controlled construction companies in the 80s with Roy Cohn.
Don’t like being called FASCIST? Stop doing corrupt fascist things.
Has Trump ever been to a movie or seen one?
Isn’t it curious that Trump seems to have “inside knowledge” of his experience with mobspeak? Wondering who he might have dealt with to adopt his interpretation of the term.
There is a political movie reference for 86. Sorry for Orangey VonSchitzinpantz, but it was not a murder reference.
Trump knows about mob terms
What’s the mob terms for “Hang” Mike Pence ?
It’s “saw the movies”, not “seen the movies”. Trump’s English is awful!
Can you even imagine what the astronauts behind him are thinking. Out of pity for his low IQ they didn't laugh!
He's projecting again. Temu mobster knows these things.
I did a deep research question on this subject with perplexity.ai. “ The Candidate-1972” 86 the sideburns Is the only actual movie uses the term
I only heard 86 get used when I was working in the food industry. It’s used when you run out of something, an example being “We’re 86 on Moz sticks” for saying we are out of mozzarella sticks
I worked in restaurants - it means you ran out of an item
86= Mob bankruptcy. Trumpstein 86'd 6 casinos.
86 is restaurant code for - we are out of this particular item In a bar, 86'ed" means being ejected, refused service, or banned from the premises Nowhere in America's History has "86" mean to kill somebody. Trump is stuck in the 50s when "mobs" were a thing. He just pulls this stuff out of his ass
afaict, "86" means the restaurant is out of it.
it's also a restaurant term meaning taking something off the Menu. rezku.com/blog/what-do...
Trump: "'86' is a mob term for 'kill 'em.' You ever see the movies? '86 him,' the mobster says to one of his wonderful associates. '86 him,' that means kill him. I think of it as a mob term." Collins: "Do you really think your life was in danger?" Trump: "Probably."
It's a restaurant term. I've used it thousands of times. Only a wannabe mob boss who watches too much television would believe otherwise.
All the restaurant GMs out there: “Wait, was I telling my staff to kill that drunk customer?”
Trump is a well known fucking liar
He'd know all about "mob terms". He's a fucking criminal.
Trump is confusing "86" with "deep six".
Trump is a wannabe Mobster, but his big lying mouth and feeble brain would have seen him 'demised' from the mob. When you 86 someone out of the service, you send them packing....not in a coffin.
When I said “86 broccoli” in a restaurant kitchen, I wasn’t say murder it.
What? What mob movie did they say that in?
I have never heard, nor read, or seen any evidence that "86" is mob-speak for "kill 'em". He can "think of it" any way he wants, but that isn't reality. It doesn't make it true. The lengths these idiots will go to try to rationalize a ridiculous personal vendetta by their king is astounding.
It means when a restaurant is out of cheeseburgers and Pepsi
No. It is not. He can think of it as whatever he wants no. It never stands for murder. It stands for a canceled restaurant order.
So the administration took over a year to act on a threat they thought was real? They're really incompetent.
"He tried to help Hillary Clinton." WHAT??? It was Comey who helped Trump in 2016 when he announcing 11 days before the election the FBI was reopening the investigation into Clinton's email server. Trump KNOWS that's why he won in 2016, though @hillaryclinton.bsky.social hugely WON the popular vote.
We all know that 86 is a restaurant term for removing an item they are out of from the menu.
And that's why he thinks "86" means to murder, because of its ties to mafia myth culture. No surprises there.
The Artemis II team looks thrilled to be there.
I think McDonald’s is 86ing him just fine.
How about when you say or post: "I think we're just going to KILL people." or "A whole civilization will die tonight." or "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH." Are those terms for KILL too? 🤡
“86” is slang for getting kicked out of a bar, my dude. It later grew to mean “getting cancelled” in general. This man needs an early retirement.
What about using "187"? That is a police term for murder, as I recall from "Demolition Man".
That's not what multiple slang dictionaries say 86 means. Nowhere does it mention to "kill" :
Reporter: “Do you really think James Comey was threatening your life?” Trump: “86 is a mob term that means “kill them.””
Trump: “Comey is a dirty cop."
why do you know mob terms
It’s a restaurant term for gods sake!
His endless whining and self pitying drivel 86 means eject, reject, send it back It’s in the dictionary Could he be more pathetic www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/e...
A mob term? He would know.
Trump knows more about the mob than he does about restaurant work.
I think Gramps Trump is likely thinking of “deep six.”
Hahaha. You're not on the menu, trump. No one wants to order you. Silly man.
I’m not a mobster so to me, 86’d has always meant “to be kicked out of “as in “86’d from the bar” equals no longer allowed to go in that bar or got kicked out on that occasion. I suppose mobsters have their own language, so pmurt would know if 86’d in mobworld means death by extermination.
Maybe that's what it means to Trump's mob
Trump would know all about “mob terms.” 😐
Um, no..no it’s not. It’s a restaurant term that means an item or ingredient has run out. it could also mean that a patron is unruly and needs to be removed from the premises. Either one would be appropriate in reference to 🍊🤡💩
Might be true if Comey had enough seashells to write ”He's sleeping with the fishes” in the sand, but 86 the spaghetti carbonara is a stretch.
Trump is sticking with his claim about "86" being a mob news. "86 47 means “kill President Trump.”
As @kurtweldon.bsky.social noted earlier today, he's confusing "86" with "deep six". 🤡
He is obviously more conversant with mobspeak than the average American who watches movies and TV and who thinks 86 is what a restaurant does and whack is what the mob does
How is he going to find one other person to corroborate this when the dictionary does not define it that way? 🤡🤡🤡
When I worked food service 50 years ago and the manager said the mustard was 86, we all just knew she meant someone took the mustard out eight miles and dropped it six feet down.
As someone who has been 86’ed a few times holy cow I am still alive?!?
One time when I was waiting tables the chef told me to 86 the Blue Plate special and to take it into the walkin freezer and hang it on a meathook while listening to Derek and the Dominos. I didn't understand it at the time, but now it all makes sense.
Well, you’re always learning, aren’t you? I had no idea what 86 meant. I suppose a mob boss prez would though.
86 just means kicking someone out of a bar. No mob movie has ever used 86ing as a term for killing someone. The guy can’t even get movie bullshit right, and movie bullshit is the only thing he knows!
Maybe they talk about 86ing someone from the casino in Casino? Anyway, all the people saying stuff like “Ooo! He admits he knows mafia terms!” and such are embarrassing me, because no, the demented old freak doesn’t even know what he’s talking about on something this dumb.
They may be (deliberately or through ignorance are equally likely) conflating it with "deep-six[ing]", meaning to put 6 feet deep i.e. in a grave
Shocking that Trump is unfamiliar with a term used in the service industry. 86 the fucker, then give him a nice pair of cement galoshes. (That’s a mob term)
I’d like to point out that a large amount of “8646” merch is STILL FOR SALE at Oligarch Jeff’s online store.
✋ I worked for the mob in a famous Las Vegas casino. 86 does not mean kill. It means remove from the premises, permanently ban from the premises, and issue a trespass warning. The mob didn't announce or create a permanent record of when they were going to bury someone in the desert.
