The Trump Presidency | Biden Inaugurated

I think the ad is a bit pointless: the virus is not something created by Trump, a lot of countries have been hit hard(er) by it, thousands of people would be dying no matter who was president, the issue is whether it could have been less. And try to blame him for a declining economy? When his side are the ones who are pushing hard to open up against scientific advice? It probably takes 2 minutes to write a "debunked" article for that, it's so easy to deflect it.
Imho people should focus their attacks on Trump downplaying the danger every step of the way with fake confidence, some of his insane/dangerous advice (bleach, chloroquine) or where tens of millions of small business aid ended up.
Nor was the post-2008 economic recovery.

If Trump is going to take credit for a positive thing not fully in his control, it's fair game to criticise him for a negative thing not fully in his control.
 
Trump lately Reminds me of lord feckwad from Shrek. “Some of you may die, but it’s a scarifice, I’m willing to make.
 
So the Regime’s narrative for when we see this next spike from opening up, aside from blaming blue states, will be to say it’s just because they are doing such at great job at increased testing even though they know it’s a lie. The Texas governor was caught on a leaked recorded phone call admitting as much.

Even leaving aside the "he started it logic". He'll say it's the Chinese Virus that killed the economy, that he's fighting the hardest to restart life and get it back to where he had it before evil Chinese communists interfered. It's an easy argument to make.

In theory, the clips of him saying what a great job Xi was doing and how it was all under control should be reasonable ammo against it. But then, critical thought and all that.
 
This is Spar(ta):

'Donald Trump, speaking in Arizona, said it’s time to reopen businesses. “Will some people be affected? Yes. Will some people be affected badly? Yes. But we have to get our country open and we have to get it open soon,” he said.

“I’m viewing our great citizens of this country to a certain extent and to a large extent as warriors.“'
Good comparison Steve. The weak and feeble must be thrown over the cliff.

It's not "he started it logic". That makes no sense.
 
You know that thing that Donald Trump could walk into NYC and shoot somebody and get away with it... yeah...
Apparently the average American hilbilly can jump into a pickup truck with their shotgun, chase someone down who is jogging in the road and kill them - and seemingly get away with it. So I have no doubt that you're 100% correct.

My impression was that you were saying it's fair to make nonsensical arguments about the economy, since Trump started with that logic?! Sorry if I misunderstood you.
 
Incredible but true: Trump's people played the song Live And Let Die before he spoke in Arizona yesterday.

I like to think there's a lone resistance hero up there in the av room.

Reminds me of the time the British National Party used the Manic Street Preacher song If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next, which includes this quote from a Republican fighter in the Spanish Civil War: "if I can shoot rabbits, then I can shoot fascists".

Oh, and also every single American political ad or rally that has used "Born in the USA".
 
2030, and former President Trump still hasn't realised that his spray tanning machine was stolen:

Why do people restrict themselves to that red vs blue shite?

That fat orange cnut has so many options right now.

I honestly think if he reached across to the baddies and said ‘Let’s delay the election for a year, suspend the partisan shit, and just focus on this Virus for a year’.... he’d probably ‘Win’ the rest of the year, as well as an election next year.

That’s an extreme example to make a point, but he could so easily make policy that won votes right now.
 
The "the fallen soldiers" narrative will be pushed heavily. It'll be treated as an unavoidable war-time event and people over there will lap it up because America love that "Oorah!" shit.

A nurse will throw out the first pitch at some baseball game while people are still dying of the disease.

Paving the way for emergency war powers, so that Trump doesnt have to step down.

Not one American I've told about that song believed me until I played it for them.

I was very surprised myself when I looked up the lyrics for the first time.

Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A . . .

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says "Son if it was up to me"
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said "Son, don't you understand"

I had a brother at Khe Sanh fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Trump backtracks on winding down the Corona task force. Yes, these are his actual words:

"I had no idea how popular the task force is until yesterday when I started talking about winding down. It is appreciated by the public.”

That must really suck for him. Can't have no rational input disrupting his re-election plans. He probably views them as an irritation and thorn in his side now.
 
Is it just me or is Kayleigh McEnany turning out to be a very robotic, fake protege of the Trump administration? Just can't take to her at all.
 
She as always been like that . Just watch her and Cuomo go back and forth.

Everything to him hinges on popularity. Which is terrifying.
 


Meaning: Trump´s incompetence has reached an all time high, and the media are writing about it.

Wonder how long she will last before she realises she can't keep covering for the moron-in-chief. She's already made the fatal mistake of committing on TV that she'll never lie to the press. Wasn't she watching Huckers and Grisham before her? That smugness she demonstrated today won't last long.

It's like his tiny little mind is still stuck on reality tv mode, well fk me sideways a Govt response team or a Govt fund for small businesses is "popular" like what did he expect to happen?
 
Wasn't Mr. Orangutan saying something about 74,000 deaths by August a week or so ago? They just hit that mark today. It must be August already, since he's never wrong.

And I can´t wait for April (whenever that is) when all this will miraculously go away.
