Trump is nervous because polls show him trailing Biden in PA, a critical swing state that Trump won in 2016 by less that one percent. He is trying to smear Biden in PA by trying to make people believe he wasn't born there.
Did anyone at Newsmax take time to explain to you that January 24th 2020 was eight months ago and before we had a pandemic hit our nation?
The social media image that angered Trump wasn't part of Goodyear's training program. When asked what type of boycott should be used, Trump said he didn't know and that it's up to the people. Trump's call to boycott Goodyear was a rash, dunderhead move implicating middle class workers in the swing state of Ohio where polls show Biden and Trump are currently tied. New Biden ad centered in Akron criticizes Trump’s tweet calling for Goodyear boycott By: Camryn Justice Posted at 7:57 PM, Aug 23, 2020 and last updated 7:57 PM, Aug 23, 2020 New Biden ad centered in Akron criticizes Trump’s tweet calling for Goodyear boycott excerpts: "AKRON, Ohio — Following an attack ad released by Republican-funded organization The Lincoln Project condemning President Donald Trump’s tweet urging people not to buy tires from Goodyear—Akron’s fourth-largest employer—Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden followed suit. On Sunday, “Biden for President” released a new ad in Ohio that makes claims that Trump is “going out of his way” to hurt thousands of jobs “in an effort to protect his.”" "Trump’s tweet, made on Aug. 19, made a call, written in all caps, for consumers to stop purchasing tires from Goodyear over an image suggesting employees are not allowed to wear MAGA hats."
Hip forum closet commies?? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah--sure thing Joseph McCarthy, sir.
Trump has lost the elderly and the military. Two historically conservative guarantees although I really chuckle at how far Republican assume this supports goes. Not every person willing to give up 4 years of their life thinks like them. I guess they assume it's still a force that is 90% white and "not racist" but pro white rights. Think of how they recruit. They take people with no economic mobility. For poor families who can't afford college being a Marine is their shot. So with the long standing racial divide in America this means a lot of black and brown people are willing to be shot at if they can pay of their mom's house. You can be 18 or 19 years old and buying 50K sports cars in addition to the house. You were in high school 6 months ago and all your friends from there are working fast food driving a 20 year old minivan. The recruiter is going to tell you this. Everyone likes money. These right wing militia types may be in for a surprise because these men were more pro Obama than Trump. Trump’s popularity slips in latest Military Times poll — and more troops say they’ll vote for Biden
Trump's approval by active military personnel has slipped significantly. It's embarrassing for Trump who has claimed incessantly that he has done more for the military than anyone. Trump losing military support in election: poll excerpt: "Just 37.4 percent of active personnel in the US military support President Donald Trump's re-election, while 43.1 percent back his Democratic opponent Joe Biden, according to a new poll Monday. The poll by the Military Times and the Syracuse University Institute for Veterans and Military Families found that half of servicemen and women have an unfavorable view of Trump, and 42 percent strongly disapprove of him, compared to 38 percent with a favorable view of the Republican leader."
All the right wing is has is the initial uncertainty. Because when he didn't know everything he said it was not a big deal they will never hear anything else. Had he on day one asked for masks he would be a communist and they would not listen. After all what prof do we have this is a big deal? We just found out about it! There is no winning. They will only accept the alternate reality where the virus does not exist. It's very hard for them to see the contrast between what Trump says and what is happening. More so than any other lie they just can't explain this one away.
He made the mistake of trying to exploit the military for his own political gain and it backfired They see him as nothing more than a bug on the windshield
Trump losing military support in election: poll excerpt: "Active-duty military members favor Biden to President Trump 43 to 37 percent, a poll from Military Times and the Institute for Veterans and Military Families at Syracuse University has found. That's a major shift from where Trump stood in 2016, when he had a 41-21 lead over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton."
Polls have shown that Trump's highest approval in the military has come from the infantry and his lowest from higher level personnel. Trump is known for his rash, jackass, 'let's swarm the enemy' approach which apparently has an appeal with the infantry, whereas it elicits a cool reception by the more rational-minded personnel in higher level positions.
He still has a lot of support. Especially in the last 20 years people who don't agree with Republicans don't join. Why would they help fight for the 1% and private corporations? I think they are sick of people hiding behind the service. For example Trump will go on and on about loving America but did he serve when he was told to? He could have fought communism and he didn't. It was an open secret that the rich didn't go to war. It was just a matter of paying a doctor to say they were unfit. Kind of like paying a doctor for a weed card. Everyone knows what is up. But he's also the first to get angry at a harsh words for the service. America love it or leave it. No room for free speech. He would prefer an armed conflict. The more chaos he creates the deeper into his cult his followers go. The chaos is confirmation that without him there would be 10X more.
I think that was proven when the Sec. of Defense, and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said they regretted participating in that photo op back in June.
To some of the hardcore Trump supporters, the health and financial hardship they incur caused by Trump's obsession with avenging Obama is worth it. They're waiting for something better from Trump in a second term. For Herman Cain who died of the coronavirus, taking Trump's dissident stance on the coronavirus was worth his own life. For the more pragmatic, taking the liberty of engaging in needless, risky behavior that causes death for oneself and for others isn't a great liberty. It amounts to Give Me Death Or Give Me Death!
Trump retweeted a video today. It had come from some guy who claimed he was with Groyper. CNN reported that the name was a code word for the Alt Right and other white nationalist groups. The video falsely blames a Black man for pushing a woman at the subway station in New York. The blaming of colored people is a common thing on the net, even here on HF. The white nationalists always want to point to Black, Mexican, or Muslims for doing something; however, they never point out to cases where their own committed criminal and more outrageous acts.
