    Another Rose Garden Massacre. Melania redesigned it in the summer of 2020. The cherry trees dating back to Jackie Kennedy were removed.

    Melania's Christmas scene looked cold and stark.

    Melania was caught on a recording using the 'F' word while complaining about having to do Christmas decorations.

    Some of Melania's designs are known for lack of color, diversity, compassion, and soul.

    It's symbolic of the Trump administration.

    Trump loses another election-related case.

    The Supreme Court rejected Trump's attempt to shorten the North Carolina mail-ballot deadline.

    The U.S. incurred more than 1000 coronavirus deaths on October 28, like it did the previous day.

    The trend doesn't look good for Trump during the last week of the campaign.

    The Dow Jones dropped 943 points on October 28 over disturbing coronavirus trends that Trump thinks are harmless.

    U.S. virus mortality climbs to over 1000 per day. Hospitalizations and morbidity increase sharply. Germany and France institute lockdowns. Putin issues a national mask mandate. Dow Jones drops over 1000 points in a day.

    Trump is showing his psychosis by saying nothing is wrong and telling women that he fixed their dishwashers and will put their husbands back to work.



    Trump’s Closing Argument on Virus Clashes With Science, and Voters’ Lives

    Trump’s Closing Argument on Virus Clashes With Science, and Voters’ Lives

    excerpt:

    "The president has continued to declare before large and largely maskless crowds that the virus is vanishing, even as case counts soar, fatalities climb, the stock market dips and a fresh outbreak grips the staff of Vice President Mike Pence. Hopping from one state to the next, he has made a personal mantra out of declaring that the country is “rounding the corner.”

    Mr. Trump has attacked Democratic governors and other local officials for keeping public-health restrictions in place, denouncing them as needless restraints on the economy. And venting self-pity, the president has been describing the pandemic as a political hindrance inflicted on him by a familiar adversary.

    “With the fake news, everything is Covid, Covid, Covid, Covid,” Mr. Trump complained at a rally in Omaha on Tuesday, chiding the news media and pointing to his own recovery from the illness to downplay its gravity: “I had it. Here I am, right?”

    Earlier the same day, Mr. Trump ridiculed the notion that the virus was spreading rapidly again, falsely telling a crowd in Lansing, Mich., that the reported “spike in cases” was merely a reflection of increased testing. The 74-year-old president pointed to his teenage son, who was diagnosed with the virus earlier this month, to suggest that many of those cases were of only trivial concern."

    Polls: Trump trails in Wisconsin as state's coronavirus cases surge

    excerpt:

    "Trump’s political struggles in Wisconsin come amid its ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus that is the worst in the nation. On Tuesday, Wisconsin set records for new cases and deaths, with the death toll now standing at 1,852. On Monday, the state passed 200,000 cases, with half of them coming in the past 36 days.

    Some hospitals are struggling to keep up with the cases, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison just canceled an upcoming football game, the first Big Ten game scrapped due to the virus.

    “It’s a nightmare scenario, frankly, that this could get quite a bit worse in the next several weeks or months before it gets better,” said Dr. Ryan Westergaard, a medical officer with the state health department, in a call with reporters."

    The autumn Big Ten season had been canceled but the league later restarted it in late October.

    Trump claims he resurrected the season.

    Trump is still president between Nov 3 and Jan 20. He will be the one who has to endure whatever may happen with the coronavirus during that period. Although the questionable Remdesivir was approved on Oct 22 for public use, widespread use of effective therapeutics and vaccines is not expected during that period. To the chagrin of Trump, mitigation approaches such as social distancing and face coverings will be the main mode of controlling the virus while he's still in office during his first term.

    For those that are bad at math:

    October 28th:

    France records 553 new cases per million population in one day

    Spain records 425
    new cases per million population in one day

    And 82,000 means US records 248 new cases per million population

    So the Frenchies and Macron are actually doing twice as bad as 'Murica ATM at containing the spread

    And France has had a national mask mandate since May, all the good that did

    The University of Kansas just released a study on masks which you may find very revealing..................

    KU study concludes county mask mandates in Kansas have stalled major rise in COVID-19


    TOPEKA — Researchers at the University of Kansas report counties with mask mandates thwarted significant escalation in transmission of COVID-19 and counties operating without a
    requirement people wear a face covering suffered steady infection rate increases.


    Elected county government leaders in 80 Kansas counties rejected the order issued in July by Gov. Laura Kelly mandating every Kansas resident to wear a mask in public places where 6 feet
    of social distancing couldn’t be maintained. Four Kansas counties stopped short of rebuking the governor, choosing to decline to enforce Kelly’s mask order.


    Twenty-one counties in Kansas maintain a mask mandate, including Sedgwick County, which adopted the rule in September after the virus flared in south central Kansas. Sedgwick was
    among 11 counties to belatedly come on board with a mask edict.

    Naturally because the study proves without a doubt that masks work

    I just told you France has had a national mask mandate since May and are currently doing twice as bad as the US with containing the spread

    A real world example

    At least give me something from a more credible institution than some hick University famous for studying pumpkin crops

    You didn't even read the article, let alone the study

    "Adherence to the governor’s mask mandate in Johnson County is associated with 6.5 to 8.5 fewer cases per day for every 100,000 population, she said.

    “Cases in counties with a mask mandate stopped increasing. They didn’t go away. They stopped increasing,” Ginther said. “And, cases in counties without a mandate, starting in mid-August, just kind of went crazy.”

    The KU researchers demonstrated Kansas counties without the mask order experienced a surge in coronavirus infection rates that climbed from about 10 cases per 100,0000 in July to nearly 40 cases per 100,000 in October. The number of cases for counties covered by the mask order plateaued since July at around 20 cases per 100,000."


    So the article actually says, mask mandates don't even cut the spread by half, which when applied to exponential growth is fairly meaningless

    My dear Democrats … Please try to come up with an "original" attack on President Trump instead of copying and pasting left wing owned media propaganda. How about for a start showing us the massive crowds attending Mr. Biden's rallies instead of images of him against a Democratic poster background..

    The battleground state of Wisconsin had 5,262 new cases of the coronavirus on Oct 27, breaking the record high of 4591 per day on Oct 20.

    New cases were under 1,000 per day in September.

    The number of coronavirus hospitalizations was1,385 and ICU patients was 339 on Oct 27. The numbers were about 300 and 100, respectively, in September.

    New coronavirus deaths per day in WI reached an all time high of 64 of Oct 27. The previous high was 48 on Oct 21.

    The daily death rate was about 8 per day in September.

    The death rate in WI has been increasing with new cases, hospitalizations, and morbidity.

    Mortality tends to be the most lagging parameter. It can give a false sense of optimism early in a surge that the new cases are relatively innocuous in the context of death rate.
