Do you figure if you yell about Clinton loud enough, people will ignore Trump raping a 13 yo girl? And whats that pic of Clinton in the water show ... that he was gay? I don't believe it .... he told us he likes young girls just like his terrific fun loving pal, Epstein: Trump, in a 2002 profile of Epstein in New York magazine: "I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

@Matt4VA Just how embarrassed the GOP is of Trump “The vote to renominate President Donald Trump is set to be conducted in private later this month, without members of the press present, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Convention, citing the coronavirus,” the @AP reports

Trump keep showing bruises on the back of his hand from IV's: @Rschooley Remember a year and a half ago when he pretty clearly was covering up from an I.V. poke and we were told it was a "minor injury." Looks like he's had it again, doesn't it?

RNC to Bar Journalists From Attending, Citing Concerns Over the Coronavirus UNPRECEDENTED Blake Montgomery Reporter Published Aug. 01, 2020 9:27PM ET Olivier Douliery/Pool/Getty The Republican Party plans to bar journalists from attending the Republican National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, where party members will nominate President Donald Trump to stand in the November election, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports. It would be the first convention without reporters. A convention spokesperson told the paper the change arose in response to coronavirus restrictions: “We are planning for all of the Charlotte activities to be closed press: Friday, August 21 – Monday, 24th given the health restrictions and limitations in place in the state. We are happy to let you know if this changes, but we are working within the parameters set before us by state and local guidelines regarding the number of people who can attend events.” Preventative measures have also reduced the number of delegates allowed to attend. Even C-SPAN, the nonpartisan government proceedings broadcaster, may not be allowed to show the convention, as an RNC spokesperson did not answer the Democrat-Gazette’s question on the matter.

@ProjectLincoln Trump never released his tax returns. He didn’t repeal and replace Obamacare. Mexico didn’t pay for the wall. He never even built it. He broke our economy. He killed Americans through his neglect. He golfed. Trump, it’s time for your 4 year review: you failed. Oh yeah, he also made excuses for Putin arming the Taliban against American troops.

Kruella Coats And it shows in the way he has led our country into imminent distruction. Our country is in economic chaos. Highest unemployment & lowest GDP since great depression. Over 150,000 dead & pandemic surging. Protests around the country. Large & small businesses closing. #TrumpFailed

Trump is ALWAYS the GREATEST WHINING VICTIM. He sat in front of the statue of the assassinated Lincoln and said "I've been treated worse."

The party of Trump stands for white nationalism, whining, and Q Anon craziness. They literally don't stand for anything else.

@AdamWeinstein Eric Greitens kidnapped, bound, and threatened a woman he'd had an affair with, then left office to avoid a felony conviction. Mike Pence helped get him back in a uniform, against the desires of the Navy and the Seals. Every part of this story is gross. Despite concern, Navy gave Greitens ‘red carpet’ return after pressure from VP Pence The former governor and ex-SEAL was not considered in line with ‘Navy Core Values’[url=https://t.co/I90XjuN40T?amp=1] kansascity.com

2soon2b4got10 First they gutted public health spending. Then they dismantled the pandemic response unit. Then they antagonized China with a fruitless trade war and a move to pull key public health staff out of China. Then they pulled the plug on a study that looked at the transmission of diseases from bats to humans.* Then they ignored the virus for ten long weeks while Trump held huge, crowded campaign rallies and repeatedly lied about its severity. Then they demanded that states re-open their economies long before it was safe to re-open. Now, as daily deaths skyrocket, the U.S. has totals that eclipse the numbers in third world countries with no resources and no public health infrastructure: over 150,000 DEAD and 4.4 million infected. As this exhaustive, fully-sourced timeline proves with devastating lethality, they couldn't have done worse. But it didn’t have to be this way. Had the Trump administration heeded advice from the outgoing Obama administration, or kept a competent disaster management team in place, or acted aggressively from the moment they were notified of the virus on January 3, or used World Health Organization test kits, or recommended social distancing sooner, or maintained consistent and transparent messaging, or leveraged the formidable resources of the federal government early and often, or put public health ahead of campaign concerns, or formed anything resembling a coherent national response, or had even a modicum of concern for the human impact of their decisions, we would be in a radically better situation, as seen in Germany, South Korea, and every other developed country, all of whom have a fraction of the deaths and infections the U.S. has experienced. Good night folks.... I'm so damn tired....... besides, tomorrow is another day. The way Trump's handling this, I may never get out of this trench.

2soon2b4got10 What is this shit that the WH has issued warnings about the spread of COVID that you're hearing from some new's sources? The “White House” has given NO such warnings. Fauci, Birx, Johns-Hopkins, NIH, etc. are NOT the “White House”. We don’t hear any warnings at all from Trump, or even his staff. All we hear is voo-doo medicine and nothing about distancing, masks, or even washing hands. Trump is too busy playing golf and deflecting to other nonsense like China, hydroxycholoroquine, TikToc, delaying the Election, and Joe. He’s not even participating to guide Congress to come up with a decent relief package and, instead, seems to be enjoying watching America suffer with its back against the wall to try to put food on the table. The “White House” is the reason for most of the deaths we’ve suffered. The “White House” literally is guilty of negligent homicide for the vast majority of the 150,000 deaths so far. And considering that the US national death toll is now over 1000 per day and rising, this means there will be more than 250,000 death by Election Day and over 300,000 dead by the end of year. WHAT is it going to take in DEATHS for people to get it. The natural infection rate of this virus unchecked is 60-90% of the population some 300,000,000 plus infections and likely nearly 1 million deaths. 1. National mask mandate with enforcement - fines throughout the nation 2. Mandatory distancing everywhere - if you cannot afford the spacing - stay closed including physical schooling 3. Close bars and restrict indoor dining for 6-8 months 4. Ban all gatherings more than 10 with fines Otherwise there will be NO economic recovery and continued job losses, widespread privation Congress needs to pass a 6 month extension of benefits to the unemployed, fund state/local governments and assist vulnerable populations. Finally we MUST rid ourselves of the mentally ill imbecilic fascist SOB. I've come the conclusion that the difference between Democrats and Republicans are............ Republicans are willing to accept the deaths of Americans as a cost of doing business.

‘At no point in my career or life have I felt our nation’s values under greater threat and in more peril than at this moment.’ That’s Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, former director for European Affairs for the U.S. National Security Council, unloading on the Trump administration in an op-ed in the Washington Post. “Our national government during the past few years has been more reminiscent of the authoritarian regime my family fled more than 40 years ago than the country I have devoted my life to serving,” wrote Vindman, who was born in Ukraine before coming to the U.S. Vindman last year testified in the House’s impeachment hearings that he had raised concerns over Trump’s July 2019 “perfect” phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. After Trump’s acquittal in February, Vindman was fired from the NSC, along with his brother. Upon his retirement from the Army, Vindman said he left the military after two decades of service due to a “campaign of bullying, intimidation and retaliation” by Team Trump “forever limited the progression” of his career in the wake of his impeachment testimony. “Our citizens are being subjected to the same kinds of attacks tyrants launch against their critics and political opponents,” he said. “Those who choose loyalty to American values and allegiance to the Constitution over devotion to a mendacious president and his enablers are punished.” Vindman did not elaborate on his future plans in the fiery op-ed over the weekend, explaining that was looking “forward to contributing” to the effort to “issue a mandate to reject hate and bigotry and a return to the ideals that set the United States apart from the rest of the world.”
