    Trump has been promising to release his healthcare plan for the past 5 years. Older people who often need healthcare the most should have lost interest in Trump years ago and so should have younger people concerned about their future healthcare situation. Trump has finally lost support from seniors as the coronavirus has ensued.

    McEnany couldn't even give an adequate description of Trump's healthcare plan to journalists. She told them to find a job at the White House to discover what it is.

    More generally, the Trump administration and the RNC have been unable to articulate their platform for a second term. It's been nothing but glittering generalities, most of it coming from Trump's relatives speaking at the 2020 RNC convention that sordidly used the White House for the event.

    Trump's remark to The New York Times' Peter Baker about a second term:

    "But so I think, I think it would be, I think it would be very, very, I think we'd have a very, very solid, we would continue what we're doing, we'd solidify what we've done, and we have other things on our plate that we want to get done."

    ... and Trump supporters say Biden has mental health issues.

    He promised to release his tax returns. Instead, he is fighting to his last breath to keep them concealed.

    James Corden Notices A Weird Pattern With Trump's Photos
    The Late Late Show host shared some food for thought about the president's photos.
    By Bill Bradley
    17/09/2020 18:42 BST

    HuffPost is now a part of Verizon Media

    excerpt:

    "On his Wednesday night show, James Corden brought up a photo of Donald Trump posing with a Philly cheesesteak sandwich, which the president tweeted earlier this week in a bid to gain favour in Pennsylvania where the dish comes from. But when analysing the picture The Late Late Show host noticed a weird pattern.

    “Is it me, or does Trump only look genuinely happy when he’s posing with food?” Corden said, proceeding to show other photo ops of Trump with a taco salad and a bucket of chicken."

    Now hephatrump 'insults' the entire American population !!!

    Donald Trump’s Latest Coronavirus Comment Slammed As ‘So Cruel And Cynical’
    The president reportedly delighted that he’d no longer “have to shake hands with these disgusting people" because of the coronavirus pandemic.

    Donald Trump’s latest reported insensitive comment about Covid-19 sparked anger on Twitter on Thursday, with accusations the president again has shown his contempt for Americans.

    In a video released by the Republican Voters Against Trump group, former White House official Olivia Troye claimed the president (a notorious germaphobe) once said an upside of the coronavirus pandemic was that he’d no longer “have to shake hands with these disgusting people.”


    “Those disgusting people are the same people that he claims to care about,” Troye said. “These are the same people still going to his rallies today who have complete faith in who he is.”

    Check out the video here:

    The recollection of Troye, a longtime Republican who during her time as an aide to Vice President Mike Pence sat on the White House coronavirus task force, drew widespread condemnation on social media. In the same video, Troye slammed Trump’s response to the pandemic and endorsed Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

    Trump last month callously dismissed the soaring death toll from the crisis, telling Jonathan Swan of Axios that “it is what it is.”

    “When a former top Pence staffer goes on the record to say that Trump described *his own supporters* as ‘disgusting people’ ― it becomes even more credible than it already was that he referred to America’s war dead as ‘losers’ and ‘suckers,’” tweeted David Frum, a speechwriter for former President George W. Bush.

    Carol Giacomo, a member of The New York Times’ editorial board, described Trump’s comment as “so cruel and cynical.”

    “I don’t have to shake hands with these disgusting people.” — President Donald J. Trump.

    Baskets of deplorables, perhaps?

    Wow. "Disgusting people" -- that's the phrase which jumped out to me. Listen and remember that Olivia Troye is a former official in Trump's White House. https://t.co/pU1SZRFSNJ

    — Michael McFaul (@McFaul) September 17, 2020
    Ummm this Olivia Troye (pence wh aid) report of Trump saying he was happy about coronavirus bc it means he doesn’t have to ‘shake the hands of disgusting people anymore’. Y’all trump fans go so hard for a guy that doesn’t even want to touch your ass

    — Aubrey O'Day (@AubreyODay) September 18, 2020
    And this comment Troye attributes to @realDonaldTrump is so cruel and cynical: At one coronavirus task force meeting, she said Trump suggested "maybe this Covid thing is a good thing ...I don't like shaking hands w/people. I don't have to shake hands w/these disgusting people." https://t.co/3cUGzwuZcC

    — Carol Giacomo (@giacomonyt) September 17, 2020
    Most damning part of her testimonial is her quote of Trump:

    "Maybe this COVID thing is a good thing... I don't like shaking hands with people. I don't have to shake hands with these disgusting people."

    The "disgusting people" Trump was referring to were his own supporters.

    — Mike Collier (@CollierForTexas) September 17, 2020
    Listen to her. Trump has contempt for the health of millions and for his own supporters , adding that COVID could be “good” b/c he would no longer have to shake hands with “these disgusting people.” https://t.co/gpp5ZMnbk5

    — Robert Shrum (@BobShrum) September 17, 2020
    The President of the United States thinks you are disgusting. "I don't like shaking hands with people. I don't have to shake hands with these disgusting people," Troye claimed Trump said at the meeting.

    Tonight in Wisconsin thousands of Trump supporters are putting their lives at risk to support their President who, in a WH coronavirus task force meeting, referred to his supporters as disgusting people.

    "I don't have to shake hands with these disgusting people"

    Dear @realDonaldTrump supporters: he thinks you're "disgusting". He thinks your friends & relatives who died defending America are "losers" & "suckers".

    Analysis: Trump has a go-to solution, and it’s more Trump

    excerpt:

    “The American people elected Donald Trump because they saw an outsider, successful businessman, and problem solver who could get things done and fight for them,” said White House spokesman Judd Deere.

    Three and a half years in office, a degree of the president’s ability to command attention has worn off; some of his tweets that once would have turned Washington upside-down now pass without much reaction. Cable news stations cut away from his briefings. There have been moments when the president has taken a back seat, as during periods of the pandemic when he placed the onus for the response on the states. But they rarely last.

    From his days as a New York tabloid star, Trump has long believed in the power of a headline, even if not always good.

    He has dominated the 2020 campaign, but somewhat to his detriment. The race to this point, instead of a choice between candidates, has largely been a referendum on his handling of the coronavirus outbreak.

    “Donald Trump’s presidency has never been about making Americans’ lives better, a tragic truth he proved yet again this weekend by creating the illusion of leadership with executive orders that will only gin up more chaos and fail to meaningfully address the public health and economic crisis plaguing families across the country,” said Biden spokesman TJ Ducklo, who added that “this president is engineering ways to take credit instead of implementing a real national response to this pandemic.”

    I notice Trump has made his excuse for why he can't debate. If he even does which I doubt he has claimed Biden is on performance enhancing drugs so of course he was too fast for sober Trump. Yet Biden is also "sleepy" and he can't understand anything. Again it's fascism your enemy is both weak and strong and only one man can stop him.

    Which is it Trump? Because drugs like that don't help dementia. If they did you would not speak how you do. Trump clearly uses stimulants. There is so much more evidence of him showing the effects of drugs like coke or adderall.

    Being a Republican is being selfish. You don't owe anyone anything. You take care of yourself and give nothing back. If everyone does that society is a utopia. They really hate the concept of people caring for each other unless they have a blood relation. Then it's natural to take care of your own pack. This is why for example wealth inherited from parents is their only acceptable way to make money without earning it themselves

    If I want to give my kids 100 million that is MY business but giving just 1 million in tax to the goverment so other kids can benefit hell no that is socialism for the lazy.

    Another Trump act of desperation three years after the hurricane struck Puerto Rico.

    Trump administration announces $13 billion in aid to Puerto Rico

    excerpt:

    "The storm crippled island infrastructure for months, and a government-commissioned study found that nearly 3,000 people died as a result of the hurricane.

    Trump has questioned the death toll, claiming it was inflated to make him look bad. He has repeatedly gone after the mayor of San Juan and derided the island as "one of the most corrupt places on earth.""

    Republican senators continue to cling to the Titanic.


    Virus Pulls Down Trump, Poll Shows, and G.O.P. Senators Suffer With Him
    A New York Times/Siena College survey showed Joe Biden leading President Trump by wide margins in Maine and Arizona, and effectively tied in North Carolina. Susan Collins trailed her Democratic rival in Maine’s Senate race.

    Virus Pulls Down Trump, Poll Shows, and G.O.P. Senators Suffer With Him

    excerpt:

    "In all three states, Democratic Senate candidates were leading Republican incumbents by five percentage points or more. Senator Susan Collins of Maine, a Republican seeking a fifth term, is in a difficult battle against Sara Gideon, trailing by five points as voters there delivered a damning verdict on Mr. Trump’s stewardship: By a 25-point margin, 60 percent to 35 percent, they said they trusted Mr. Biden over Mr. Trump on the issue of the pandemic."

    That news article at first glance could be mistaken for one from three years ago.

    Trump may have finally discovered that the swing state of Florida has a significant population of people related to Puerto Rico.
