I just tried to listen to the video of his cameo last night---I confess I did not make it to the end. It was vintage trump BS, with one exception, apparently the make-up people weren't aloud in and his orange paint has faded. Do you think he can comb his own hair---I can only guess how long that might take.

The pettiness of TDS is all-consuming and unrepressable it seems.
Might as well kick him when he’s down before he gets up and kicks their collective azzes...again.

I suggest that a touch of humility and honesty would have been not only appropriate but also a positive change--but alas those traits remain beyond his ability.

He and the rest are definitely not alone in his lack of certain abilities. I think that's why half of the politicians are politicians in the first place they can't do anything else. Could probably delete "ELSE"Originally Posted by Dave Grubb

I do not confuse humility with getting the job done that I want and think we need. I’ll take his boorish demeanor in exchange.
Compare him with the suave & slick zer’O who proved incompetent. The grifting never-done-anything-in-his-life-but-stand-off-Corn-Pop, Joe Biden, will be worse.

I just listened to the medical briefing, if we were not talking about the condition of the POTUS, the amateurism of the lies might be funny---essentially he said---OK---I lied yesterday but trust me today----of course we will doc

One guy’s doc does not release his patient’s medical chart and the other guy is for open borders and paying all the illegals’ medical bills with my tax money. Now which should I choose? How long do I get to decide (tick-tock, tick-tock). This is really a hard one!

When you have no argument to mount you always seem to run off with an attempt at deflection. I do have a measure of empathy for you---you have chosen a hard road to follow.

My empathy goes for those that are so full of hatred, to the point of abject obsession that they filter the news through cheese cloth ever waking moment to find something hateful, mean and repetitive to the point of a manic rage, and come here and post it literally hundreds of times.

Trump is reportedly doing so well that it is said he may be released Monday. If that happens or shortly thereafter, the usual suspects will not find anything good about it, so let’s anticipate how it would be received —
#he was faking it/he never had the Chi-Com Flu,
#his pressure to be released early will result in added danger to himself & others,
#he is still sick as a dog that he is, and the release is purely political theater,
#he received care only he could ever get, and it’s unfair,
#he will only flaunt his new immunity, which will be a terrible example,
#he is too lucky and not humble enough with his good fortune,
#he brought it upon himself by his lax attitude, so he deserves worse,
#we don’t know how but he cheated like he always does,
#he needs to go to jail for this or be impeached, or both,
#why couldn’t he just die in misery like he deserves.
The TDS sufferers have a remarkable propensity for surprising with their hatred, so I’m guessing they will come up with more examples should Trump recover quickly and without the proper degree of the virus’ retribution.

The whole thing is fascinating. The divisions between the camps are getting wider and more petty as has been pointed out.
The paranoid left has become irrational in their criticism of those of us on the other side. The NYT just oozed with snarky disdain over the gall of those of us who dare to live our lives. There were multiple examples of poor self-imprisoned inmates who are torturing themselves, who just don't understand how someone would want to go on with life.
The news is chock full of myriad examples of how Trumps every move is a case study in worst practices. And the media is pulling its hair out because they can't get any straight answers. They just don't understand that there are still people out there killing pigs and making toilet paper. And they won't until the teet gets jerked away.
Trump must be improving when the conversation turns again to bad manners.

My favorite paragraph from the Warshingdon Post this morning:
Wow, someones feelers are hurt.The episode continued what has been a days-long torrent of falsehoods, obfuscation, evasion, misdirection and imprecision from those surrounding Trump as he faces the greatest threat to a president’s health in decades. From the chief White House doctor to the president’s chief of staff, the inability to provide clear, direct and consistent information about Trump’s condition has been widespread since the coronavirus began rapidly circulating in the West Wing.

Seems to me those moronic reporters do not understand the POTUS is protected by HIPPA just like everyone else. You can just tell, that even though they, and others, would never admit it out loud, they are all cheering for our President's demise.
