The deficit seems to go up the same under any potus.

The Intel agencies and the media have done more on there own to discredit themselves.

Oh and the best thing abput Trump? There is absolutley zero political correctness, I like that. If someone is a pos he says so.

Lets not beat around the bush John McCain was a war hero because he got caught. Its like the Simpson's episode when the kid who fell.down the well was a hero.Trumps just the only guy with the balls and lackmof political correctness to say it and not apologize.

As for his accomplishments, what did Obama do? Healthcare and the bailouts, not much else..

What would Hillary have done for ME ( a deplorable) that was better than what Trump has done?

"because he got caught" - McCain refused early release, staying w/ his fellow POWs longer than he had to... no credit there?

i'm not comparing him to Obama or Hillary, why not expect better from the R side? he's garbage

Id point to JFK as a comparison.

Mamy dems loved him, and didn't care that he was banging everything he could get his hands on ( even known mafia whores)

Or eithernof the Clintons, riddled with scandals more than anyone pre-trump.

Not to.mention Hillary is disgusted that I exist and was supported mainly by angry man hating lesbians, minorities, lgbtq-xyz who all also hate that I exist, why should I vote for that because Trump acts like a nut?

I enjoy the way he talks. He generally has followes though with his promises. Much more so than i thought or most presidents.

I would even argue Trump is one of the most honest presidents we have ever had. I understand you response is to think the exact opposite is true.

Political correctness is inherently deceptive.

Under Obama the US was never at war. We Marley had an overseas contingency operation.

Now thats just an example,im sure I could find a plethora more of I wanted to.

How is that any less deceptive than having a " perfect phone call"?

i'm not asking you to vote for a Dem (although you should this time as it's the only non-garbage choice, unless some 3rd party rockets to the top of polls)... i'm asking you to expect better, FAR better, from your team

as to Hillary hating you, if you're referring to 'deplorables', she said there are TWO baskets of Trump supporters... those who are worried about jobs/etc (i don't recall her language) in one basket, and the asshole deplorables in the other. She NEVER said all Trump supporters were deplorable, despite team LIAR spreading that nonsense (although she shouldn't have said 'half' are deplorable, though she didn't mean literally half, just indicating 2 significant groups... if you deny people do this, you are mistaken)


also of note, Trump's 'not a hero' thing is basically same as his 'founded ISIS' thing... Trump knows NOTHING about McCain's war record, just that he was captured, so Mr. Bonespurs used that sole nugget of basic info to instead claim he wasn't a hero

there's no 'who knows' about it

Hillary:
"
You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. (Laughter/applause) Right? (Laughter/applause) They're racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic – Islamophobic – you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people – now have 11 million. He tweets and retweets their offensive hateful mean-spirited rhetoric. Now, some of those folks – they are irredeemable, but thankfully, they are not America.

But the "other" basket – the other basket – and I know because I look at this crowd I see friends from all over America here: I see friends from Florida and Georgia and South Carolina and Texas and — as well as, you know, New York and California — but that "other" basket of people are people who feel the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures; and they're just desperate for change. It doesn't really even matter where it comes from. They don't buy everything he says, but — he seems to hold out some hope that their lives will be different. They won't wake up and see their jobs disappear, lose a kid to heroin, feel like they're in a dead-end. Those are people we have to understand and empathize with as well.
"


she's not wrong... considering she prefaced w/ 'grossly generalistic'

i'm sure there are many other smaller baskets but those two existed

Based on the president's Twitter feed and public remarks, the most important story right now for him is not how the country is faring under the coronavirus, but how he is being perceived throughout.
"
~ Maggie Haberman (NY Times) (replying to a Trump tweet attacking Vanity Fair)

this is pretty obvious if you view his tweets or listen to him speak

and a pattern... he does the same for hurricanes, or the Russia investigation for that matter... at the start it was just about his campaign, no one was specifically implicating Trump, the stories were about fringe members... yet Trump consistently throughout made it entirely about him personally (plus he's obviously never cared about any of the info uncovered about Russian hacking or interference... as he's a petty child who is wholly unfit for office)

and same for North Korea... only perception of how he's done rather than actual results...

all Dem candidates can talk about healthcare specifics... all R candidates last time could talk about healthcare specifics

Trump's first time in debates asked for his plan for healthcare said he'd allow companies to sell across state lines & then there'd be many plans (so he didn't even understand the concept... the difference between people's policies vs overall structure)

he has no idea what Obamacare is, as evidenced many times by how he speaks about it

Trump has been president 3 years, sadly, and went thru extensive effort by R's to pass a plan... he never learned a thing about any of them, even semi-famously told R's not to worry about the specifics

i didn't see Trump's opening comments, but in Q/A he was asked when everyone who wants a test will be able to get one & if takes any responsibility for testing failure so far

"i take no responsibility" was his answer obviously, & blamed system that was in place, but also went back to his repeated effort to say doing way better than biden/obama did w/ swine flu, as characterized in this tweet:

"
Trump, bashing the Obama administration again, falsely claims that, with H1N1, "They didn't do testing like this" and that they didn't do testing until "far too late." The H1N1 testing numbers were exponentially higher.
"
(~ CNN fact-checker)


also, this info from David Frum:
"
H1N1 was first diagnosed in US April 15, 2009.

CDC activated emergency operations April 22.

1 million tests released by May 15.
"


i'm not going to go back & research Swine Flu stats (just like Trump) to verify who is right... but i have absolutely no difficulty believing Trump just making shit up... (as. he. does. constantly.) There's really no reason to even suspect Trump is right, since he's never researched a thing ever.

solid anti-Trump argument:

"
The hour of national emergency that this administration and our mendacious, incompetent, narcissistic, ignorant and buffoonish President are completely incapable and unequipped to handle has arrived. Let this be the end of the reality show era of American politics.

There will be some voices who say this is not a time for politics. They could not be more wrong. It is not a time to politicize a global pandemic but it is certainly a time to recognize our politics invests the power of life and death decision making in a President.

Too many Americans have underestimated the chances for a real crisis and real tragedy to reach our shores. History did not end and danger did not abate with the election of a NYC Conman, inveterate liar and boorish reality show clown lacking any sense of dignity or probity

Trump has divided the country and stoked a cold civil war between us for more than three years. He has made no pretense about trying to be a President for all of us. He is a leader of a faction that has articulated nothing but enmity and hostility towards his fellow Americans.

He has hollowed out the government, prizing personal fealty over competence. He has attacked our vital institutions and demeaned and disparaged our heroes and men and women who have spent a lifetime serving the nation and all of us. He has disgraced his office and endangered us.

A great political contest looms. A choice as important and decisive as any in the nations history lies ahead. The 2020 election and its outcome will be as decisive for the nations future as the elections of 1864 and 1940. The choice is between decline and renewal

Between indecency and decency. Between incompetence and competence. Between Truth and Lies. The choice will be between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. The choice will be between a bad man (Trump) and a good man (Biden). The choice will be between a dishonorable man (Trump)

And an honorable man (Biden) The choice will be between an incompetent and divisive bungler (Trump) and a competent and unifying leader (Biden). The stakes are too high to pretend the Democratic nomination isn’t over. The work of assembling a vast coalition to defeat Trump

Must begin now. The nation and the American people will be tested in the weeks and months ahead. What we will see from the American people is an exposition of our national character. We will see the qualities of greatness and kindness. We will see the power of love and sacrifice.

We will see how much better the American people are than our corrupted and indecent President and his phalanx of enablers. The American people have never flagged in an hour of testing and they will not now. Let the answer to the coming test point the way back to the light

Trump is an empty vessel. The only thing he cares about is stonks and the only reason he cares is because he's pinned his reelecton to it. And the only reason he wants to win reelection is to deal with his rampant insecurity over the fact that Obama humiliated him years ago at the White House Correspondent's Dinner.

He's a 90-iq trust fund idiot that got even dumber as he got more experience due to his hedonistic lifestyle and complete lack of intellectual curiousity.

"Maybe you’d like to sow a $91 seed... Or maybe $9. Or whatever God tells you to do."

Trump probably feels stupid for not getting in on that particular scam... he'll probably start a ministry after he's booted from office

"HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE & AZITHROMYCIN, taken together, have a real chance to be one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine. The FDA has moved mountains - Thank You! Hopefully they will BOTH (H works better with A, International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents).....
....be put in use IMMEDIATELY. PEOPLE ARE DYING, MOVE FAST, and GOD BLESS EVERYONE!"

hopefully this blows up in his face

Fauci said yesterday no scientific evidence on the Hydro one being helpful, not sure if any updates from trustworthy sources


also... "PEOPLE ARE DYING, MOVE FAST"... quite a change in message there

Note how TW is actively praying for a potential cure for the Chinese virus to fail. He literally prioritizes his hatred of the President over our people and our economy. Sick.

That whole tweet about chloroquine isn't really a problem. Initial, anecdotal tests have shown good results. The larger scientific (double blind, random, etc.) studies are underway.

What they need to be doing is scaling up production now (no idea if they are or aren't) so that if it proves to be useful, there is already a good supply.

If you call it the Chinese virus then I demand that you call chloroquine the German cure, it was developed in 1934 at Bayer in Germany.

I'm just now catching up on TW's garbage. So now he seems to actively be siding with a) the *actually* evil totalitarian regime that is the PRC, and b) sensationalist reporters who are trying to create the maximum amount of public panic they can in order to drive ratings.

TW, you're honestly not fit to cover politics.

a) you think Trump is fit for office, thus you are unfit to cover politics
b) there is no fitness requirement to cover politics

also, i'm not siding w/ China ever... if referring to me finding 'Chinese virus' a stupid name to be calling this virus, it's because it's a stupid name to be calling this virus (also, he acknowledges it's just to piss them off... so petty childish behavior, as is his norm)

even pathetic Pence isn't willing to do it

Nigerian falls victim to American scammer, for a change

———-

“ Nigeria reported two cases of chloroquine poisoning after U.S. President Donald Trump praised the anti-malaria drug as a treatment for the novel coronavirus.

Health officials are warning Nigerians against self-medicating after demand for the drug surged in Lagos, a city that’s home to 20 million people. Two people were hospitalized in Lagos for chloroquine overdoses, Oreoluwa Finnih, senior health assistant to the governor of Lagos, said in an interview.”

it seems Trump lied about his use of the Defense Production Act... he claimed to have directed companies to make products, but nope, none whatsoever

it was kinda obvious by his various vague answers, but for the stupid people: yes, he was lying... yet again

he likes to proudly proclaim invoking it as it's rare so he feels special... but he's not doing anything with it... so whatever

transcript about invoking the DPA:

Q This is important. You haven’t actually directed any companies to start making more ventilators or masks, right?

THE PRESIDENT: I have. I have. Yes. I have.

Q How many companies?

THE PRESIDENT: A lot. A lot.

Q So you are requiring them.

THE PRESIDENT: And they’re making a lot of ventilators and they’re making a lot of masks.

Go ahead, please.

Q Which ones? What companies?

THE PRESIDENT: Go ahead. Please.

Trump’s push to use hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 has triggered a run on the drug. Healthy people are stocking up just in case they come down with the disease. That has left lupus patients like Valdez and those with rheumatoid arthritis suddenly confronting a lack of medication that safeguards them, and not only from the effects of those conditions.

some easy to believe tweets from the enemy of the people:


"Mr. Trump has become frustrated with Dr. Fauci’s blunt approach at the briefing lectern, which often contradicts things the president has just said, according to two people familiar with the dynamic."

"Aides say Trump is itching for the guidelines to be eased at the end of the 15-day period. ...Medical advisers continue to tell him the country has a way to go before emerging from the worst of the outbreak."

Gabriel Sherman of Vanity Fair said of the situation:

“My sources who are in touch with the White House, several people told me that one of the things driving [Trump’s task force press conference apperances] is that the president has been furious and frustrated at New York Governor Andrew Cuomo who has been holding these very widely well-received early morning press conferences and, in the president’s view, has sort of hijacked the news cycle.”

“So now you see Trump, you know, taking the stage after Cuomo trying to take back the mantle and unfortunately he’s doing that with misinformation,” he continued. “So we’re in a situation where the president’s narcissism and his need to be at the center of every story, even though the story is not about Donald Trump, this story is about a global pandemic, is what is driving the White House’s communication strategy.”


again... easy to believe
