    Pretty accurate

    if you like trump it's "all lives" meaning white power and superiority where the coloreds thank supply side GOP Jesus everyday for their ancestors being forced to come here. A pretty common GOP talking point is the idea that black people owe white Americans everything so it's unfair to cry racism when Africa is full of poverty and at least in the the USA the poor don't walk 3 miles to find water. So all lives matter knock of this silly arguing we white conservatives know best and have deiced you other people have no racial beef since we don't own slaves anymore,

    They ignore why Africa is poor of course and again it's the white western world.

    If you don't like him it's not OK to be racist and all black lives matter. On this we can agree at least.

    Trump might want to forget about hopscotching the feds through cities with Democratic mayors. Polls are showing that such stunts aren't garnering support from the public.



    Trump in trouble as nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of his handling of COVID-19, protests, Russia: POLL
    Trump is underwater on his handling of the coronavirus, protests and Russia.

    Trump in trouble as nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of his handling of COVID-19, protests, Russia: POLL

    excerpt:

    "In the new poll, which was conducted by Ipsos in partnership with ABC News using Ipsos' Knowledge Panel, Trump's approval is also deeply underwater -- at 36% -- for how he is handling both the protests over racial inequality and relations with one of the country's greatest geopolitical foes, Russia.

    An election that comes down to be a referendum on Trump's handling of the coronavirus, his response to the race movement or his dealings with foreign adversaries spells trouble for the incumbent president. With all three crises, Trump only consistently has the support of his own party and his base."

    The Trump faithful were saying that public approval of Trump's handling of the coronavirus wasn't slipping. It's obvious from the latest polls that it has slipped badly.

    Similarly, the faithful have been contending that the increased cases were a result of better testing, as if the death rate wouldn't increase with all of the increased cases. It required about a month for the deaths to precipitate from the increased cases. Trump and his faithful were wrong again.

    In Trump world, let the states compete with one another to buy fire extinguishing equipment at the highest market price.

    While on Twitter and hiding in a bunker, promote dissident conspiracy-truthers who have fringe remedies that are alternative to the proven fire extinguishing equipment that they say doesn't work.

    "Last quarter, it was just announced our gross domestic product — a sign of strength, right? But not for us. It was below zero. Whoever heard of this? It’s never below zero.

    Our labor participation rate was the worst since 1978. But think of it, GDP below zero, horrible labor participation rate."

    ~ Donald J. Trump... June 16, 2015


    "The US unemployment rate 11.1 percent in June 2020... GDP -32.9%"

    Trump Scrapped Jared Kushner’s COVID Plan Because It Wouldn’t Help Trump

    Trump Scrapped Jared Kushner’s COVID Plan Because It Wouldn’t Help Trump

    excerpt:

    "The original national response plan called for massive coordinated distribution of test kits across the country as well as standardized data mandates, and experts said that such a comprehensive plan could have put the country in a better position. But this was never about protecting people’s health for Trump — and always about vanity.

    Concerned about looking tough and making a statement about how little he was worried about the virus in order to appeal to his base, the president also flip-flopped between being anti-mask and then all of a sudden going out in public wearing one. His refusal to wear a mask or to encourage others to do so put people’s lives in danger, and while it may have appealed to some of his supporters, that strategy now seems to be backfiring, too.

    Now, President Trump is losing his grip as cases surge all across the country, not just in blue states. Red states like Arizona are seeing serious upticks in cases, and many Republican governors have continued to make mask mandates as the pandemic surges. And so, we are now seeing red states turning away from Trump as well. As he lags behind former VP Joe Biden in the polls and falls behind in fundraising, it looks like his strategy hasn’t worked out so well."

    Trump needs to clarify his remarks about hundreds of millions of universal mail-in ballots that he says are being sent.



    Trump Keeps Criticizing Universal Vote By Mail. But The Nation Isn't Doing That

    Trump Keeps Criticizing Universal Vote By Mail. But The Nation Isn't Doing That

    excerpt:

    "Trump falsely claimed that the U.S. is sending out "hundreds of millions of universal mail-in ballots" and also repeated a conspiracy theory about foreign countries counterfeiting ballots.

    "We are sending out hundreds of millions of universal mail-in ballots," Trump said. "Where are they going? Who are they being sent to?"

    Trump seemed to be referencing California, which has decided to send a mail ballot to all of the state's more than 20 million registered voters ahead of the presidential election. A handful of states also send ballots to all registered voters, but no states send ballots out to people who are not registered to vote.

    In May, Trump similarly falsely claimed that California was sending ballots to anyone, "no matter who they are or how they got there." Twitter added a fact-check warning to the tweet shortly after it was published."

    Trump is testing the waters with his 'delay the election' tweet, and he's receiving responses..

    Calebresi of the Federalist Society had scorned the impeachment of Trump. Now he is calling for Trump to be impeached again.




    Citing Election Delay Tweet, Influential Trump Ally Now Demands His Re-Impeachment

    Citing Election Delay Tweet, Influential Trump Ally Now Demands His Re-Impeachment

    excerpt:

    "Calabresi declared himself "appalled" by the tweet, which he characterized as "seeking to postpone the November election."

    "Until recently, I had taken as political hyperbole the Democrats' assertion that President Trump is a fascist," the conservative legal scholar wrote. "But this latest tweet is fascistic and is itself grounds for the president's immediate impeachment again by the House of Representatives and his removal from office by the Senate."

    It was a remarkable turnaround for a man who as recently as November had accused House Democrats of conducting an "unconstitutional" and "Kafkaesque 'trial' " in their Trump impeachment proceedings.

    Calabresi also had some stern advice for Republican lawmakers, many of whom have routinely approved conservative judicial nominees endorsed and promoted by the Federalist Society."

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ popularity plummets amid widely panned coronavirus response

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ popularity plummets amid widely panned coronavirus response

    excerpt:

    "A pair of recent polls indicate more Floridians now disapprove of the job DeSantis is doing than approve. The latest was released Friday by Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy. It shows that 49% of Florida voters disapprove of the governor’s job performance, compared with 45% who approve.

    That’s a 17 percentage point drop from the 62% of Florida voters who approved of DeSantis in a Mason-Dixon poll from last year.

    The stunning turnaround is another example of how politicians often are defined by how they respond in a crisis, and many people are taking a dim view of how Florida’s Republican chief executive has handled the latest phase of the coronavirus outbreak.

    DeSantis has been accused of standing by and doing little to halt the march of the virus in his state, allowing Florida to become a global hotspot."

    The anticipated response by Trump that he doesn't think Herman Cain contracted the coronavirus at the Tulsa rally.

    Trump can't withstand seeing any empty seats.

    The removal of stickers looks even more embarrassing after Herman Cain attended the event and later died after contracting the coronavirus.



    Ordered Removal of Distance Signage Video Shows Staff Doing It

    Trump Campaign Ordered Removal of Social Distancing Signs at Tulsa Rally

    excerpt:

    "There was even video captured and posted by WaPo that shows a few men with badges going around and actually removing those stickers. It's shot from a distance, so it's hard to make out what the stickers say, but it seems pretty clear they were the ones in question.

    It's unclear if these guys are Trump staffers or arena staffers. In any case, it's a smoking gun."

    Considering the tweets Trump has made dismissing the coronavirus and (sometimes unwittingly due to his lack of interest in wanting to know details) promoting conspiracy-truthers, he could go one step higher and say that he doesn't even think Herman Cain died of the coronavirus.

    HIV/AIDS denialists are known to deny that their own HIV/AIDS diagnosis and deny that theirelatives died of it, contending that official medical reports are fake.

    Trump's behavior during the coronavirus and his obsession with accusing valid information of being fake has placed him in the same league as denialists.

    Trump Campaign Cancels Alabama Rally Over COVID-19 Concerns

    excerpt:

    "The Tulsa rally also offered some hard lessons for Trump's campaign ... his first rally in 3 months of coronavirus restrictions resulted in 8 campaign staffers and 2 Secret Service agents in Tulsa testing positive for COVID-19, and the rest of his campaign staff at the rally ended up in quarantine."

    Like he said about Herman Cain being infected, Trump probably doesn't think all of those infections of his staff occurred at his Tulsa rally.
