    Why would I want to watch a man die? Especially a man I like.
    This seems like a poor attempt to justify my point. You want to see a certain man hung and your argument is I would go so you have no reason to examine your own morals.

    Wishful thinking and pledges have been Trump's approach to the coronavirus from the start.

    He made a wishful thinking remark at his Lincoln town hall meeting to a woman who lost her job during the coronavirus and who was about to be evicted that he has a feeling that 2021 is going to bring her a job with more money.



    Trump pledges a Covid-19 vaccine by end of 2020 — without acknowledging the scientific uncertainty

    Trump pledges a Covid-19 vaccine by end of 2020

    excerpt:

    "WASHINGTON — President Trump on Thursday pledged a Covid-19 vaccine would be available by the end of 2020, the most concrete claim he has made yet about the timetable for coronavirus vaccine development.

    “We are delivering life-saving therapies, and will produce a vaccine before the end of the year, or maybe even sooner,” he said.

    While Trump has repeatedly hinted at a possible vaccine approval before the end of 2020, his pledge Thursday marks his most definitive stance yet on a vaccine timetable. While it is possible that the Food and Drug Administration could issue emergency authorization for a vaccine by the end of the year, it is far from a sure bet — no drug company has completed clinical trials for a Covid-19 vaccine."

    Trump pledges a Covid-19 vaccine by end of 2020

    excerpt:

    "The remarks glossed over the Trump administration’s consistent refusal to take firm stances on social distancing and mask use, missteps that public health experts view as having helped further the virus’s spread. Ivanka Trump misleadingly claimed the U.S. built the “most robust testing system in the world.” While the U.S. has conducted more tests than any other country, few were available in the pandemic’s early stages, and Americans have consistently needed to wait hours in line for tests that didn’t deliver results until days or weeks later.

    At no point did speakers note that over 180,000 Americans have died from Covid-19, far more than in any other nation."

    This comedian already caused a fuss several years ago by calling Southerner's "slow" so I don't think he has many Republican fans anyway.

    The bit was about the heat being so high and the food being so good people are just slow to do anything but the Fox snowflakes got offended

    Trump is the same as a forum troll who enters a room and turns everyone against one another.

    Usually a school is happy to associoate itself with a president. You would put that guy in your brochures. The tuition to this prestigious university is worth it because your education can take you to the highest offices in America.

    Trump is getting expelled. He will not be in the brochure.:tearsofjoy:
    For now they make a fuss but it would seem the evidence is there to pretend he didn't exist.

    Penn professor renews call for investigation into how Trump was admitted to the university

    A professor at the University of Pennsylvania has renewed a request to investigate how President Donald Trump was admitted to the school in 1966, citing what he called "new evidence" on secretly recorded tapes in which Trump's sister says a friend took his entrance exam.


    The professor, Eric W. Orts, is one of six faculty members who asked Penn's provost earlier this summer to launch an investigation into how Trump transferred into the school. He noted that the president's niece, Mary Trump, wrote in her book published in July that the president paid someone to take his SATs.




    The provost, Wendell E. Pritchett, replied to Orts on July 20 that "we certainly share your concerns about these allegations and the integrity of our admissions process. However, as you suggest in your message, we have determined that this situation occurred too far in the past to make a useful or probative factual inquiry possible. If new evidence surfaces to substantiate the claim in the future, we will continue to be open to investigating it."


    Orts, a professor of legal studies and business ethics at the Wharton School, said he contacted Pritchett after The Washington Post on Saturday published a story that included audio of conversations Mary Trump recorded in 2018 and 2019 with Maryanne Trump Barry, the president's sister.

    In one tape, Barry said she did her brother's homework for him and that "I drove him around New York City to try to get him into college." She said Donald Trump "went to Fordham for one year [actually two years] and then he got into University of Pennsylvania because he had somebody take the exams."


    In their initial letter, the six professors wrote that “failing to investigate an allegation of fraud at such a level broadcasts to prospective students and the world at large that the playing field is not equal, that our degrees can be bought, and that subsequent fame, wealth, and political status will excuse past misconduct.” The school’s rejection of the July request was reported by the Daily Pennsylvanian, a student-run publication.

    Donald Trump's answer on what he would do in a 2nd term is literally unintelligible - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "President Donald Trump accepted the Republican presidential nomination for a second term. Twenty-four hours earlier, he had a very hard time saying exactly what he would do with another four years.

    "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," Trump told The New York Times' Peter Baker."

    Standard corporate bullshit jargon. He said nothing but his lips were moving so profits will say up I guess. He didn't say anything which also means he didn't say anything bad. America are not shareholders

    Trump’s RNC Loses Bigly to Biden’s DNC in TV Ratings

    excerpt:

    "According to initial Nielsen numbers, President Trump’s speech Thursday night drew 14.1 million viewers across the three broadcast networks and three major cable news networks. That is more than three million fewer viewers than the 17.5 million who tuned in to watch Biden’s speech one week earlier.

    When those numbers are expanded out across nine broadcast and cable networks, Biden still beat Trump by a fairly wide margin, 23.6 million to 21.6 million.

    At 70 minutes, Trump spoke close to three times as long as Joe Biden, whose DNC speech clocked in at 24 and a half minutes. It was the second-longest convention speech in modern American history—after the 75-minute speech Trump delivered at the 2016 RNC.."

    excerpt:

    "On night three, Vice President Mike Pence not only lost viewers compared to the previous night but also came in far behind the Democratic vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris. While approximately 15.7 million viewers watched Pence, about 21.5 million viewers tuned in to Harris."

    The upshot of the RNC convention was that Trump is the only troll who can quell the fights he started.
