The Donald Trump Score Card

White House aides fear Trump's medications have triggered manic behavior: report

 

Some would say that Trump's ship is already on the ocean floor with a whimpering voice heard in the rising bubbles that warns adversaries (Europe, in his perception) not to try to take advantage of the U.S. after he wrecked it with his irresponsible behavior toward the coronavirus.

And Trump about George Conway: "He' a horrible person. I wonder who his wife is?"

 

Another example is HIV/AIDS which impairs the immune system to the extent that opportunistic infections are the immediate cause of the deaths listed on the death certificate, even though the initiating cause was HIV. Such data could be twisted by someone like Trump and his followers to claim that 0% of the deaths were due to HIV.

Even though Dr. Conley has cleared Trump from isolation status, he still hasn't said if Trump has tested negative for the coronavirus recently and when his last negative test occurred before he first tested positive.



Trump Makes First Public Appearance Since Leaving Walter Reed

excerpt:

"The gathering on Saturday was not a campaign event, White House officials said, although most attendees wore “Make America Great Again” red caps, and the president’s speech was filled with attacks against his Democratic rival, former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.

“Sleepy Joe Biden’s betrayed Black and Latino Americans,” Mr. Trump said, as part of his attempt to win over more than the 8 percent of Black voters he won four years ago.

In late August, Mr. Trump also spoke at the Republican National Convention on the South Lawn, delivering his acceptance speech for the nomination in front of the same balcony where he stood on Saturday, continuing to play down the virus despite its entry into his own orbit.

“It’s going to disappear,” he said on Saturday, after underscoring recent “flare-ups” in other countries. He added that “the therapeutics are going to help a lot” and claimed, without evidence, that a vaccine was coming out “very, very quickly.”"

 

Wisconsin activates field hospital as COVID keeps surging

Wisconsin activates field hospital as COVID keeps surging

excerpt:

"State Department of Health Services Secretary Andrea Palm told reporters during a video conference that the facility will open on Oct. 14.

“We hoped this day wouldn’t come, but unfortunately, Wisconsin is in a much different, more dire place today and our healthcare systems are beginning to become overwhelmed by the surge of COVID-19 cases,” Democratic Gov. Tony Evers said in a statement. “This alternative care facility will take some of the pressure off our healthcare facilities while expanding the continuum of care for folks who have COVID-19.”

The move also came as a state judge was considering a lawsuit seeking to strike down Evers’ mandate that masks be worn in enclosed public spaces. The governor on Tuesday issued new restrictions on the size of indoor public gatherings through Nov. 6.

Only 16% of the state’s 11,452 hospital beds were available as of Tuesday afternoon, according to the DHS. The number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients had grown to 853, it’s highest during the pandemic according to the COVID Tracking Project, with 216 in intensive care."

 

Wisconsin is battling America's worst coronavirus outbreak, and the state's broken politics are partly to blame

Wisconsin is battling America's worst coronavirus outbreak, and the state's broken politics are partly to blame

excerpt:

"The answer, at least in part, is politics: specifically, the brand of cavalier, it-will-go-away politics propagated by President Trump and parroted by lower-level Republicans who seem hell-bent on resisting efforts to sustain social distancing and mask wearing when the spread is still low enough to contain — and in Wisconsin’s case, who continue to resist even after infections spiral out of control.

As Trump resumes in-person campaigning with a White House event Saturday and a rally Monday in Florida — and with cases rising nationally to their highest level since August — Wisconsin has emerged as a cautionary tale for the rest of the country about what could be coming this fall and winter to places that let politics get in the way of commonsense precautions. Last month Trump held an outdoor rally in Mosinee that attracted thousands of people, most of whom were not wearing masks. Even as case counts soared, he planned to return for back-to-back rallies in Janesville and Green Bay earlier this month — plans that were scrapped only after the president himself tested positive for the virus."

 

Wisconsin is battling America's worst coronavirus outbreak, and the state's broken politics are partly to blame

excerpt:

"In July, for instance, Evers issued a statewide order mandating masks in enclosed spaces, which he extended last month to Nov. 21. Yet even though nearly three-quarters of Wisconsinites favor Evers’s mandate, Republican lawmakers are backing another suit against it. A judge is expected to rule any day now.

Same goes for Evers’s latest order limiting indoor capacity at bars, restaurants and stores to 25 percent as the virus surges. “Do I expect there to be litigation on this?” Ryan Nilsestuen, Evers’s top attorney, told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel this week. “Absolutely.”

This relentless campaign to delegitimize pandemic precautions as partisan overreach comes with a cost. It discourages compliance. It disincentivizes enforcement. And it preemptively restricts the government’s ability to address a worsening crisis."

 

Trump's two planned rallies in Wisconsin virus hot spots were canceled after he tested positive for the coronavirus and was hospitalized the day before the rallies.

Trump is resuming his campaign with rallies in PA, FL, and IA instead of WI.

WI is difficult for Trump to resist. He loves sticking his nose into an ideological culture war and throwing more fuel on the fire for his benefit.

Trump regrets spending money on Super Bowl ads at $10 million a piece.

He's still trying to make his campaign comeback hinge on football. At the presidential debate Trump said "I'm the one who brought football back."

Strapped for cash, Trump yanks TV ads in key states as Biden spending surges

excerpt:

"Mr. Trump’s retreat from Ohio, Iowa and New Hampshire reflects his struggle to change the dynamics of a race that polls suggest he is on track to lose. In the six weeks since his party’s national convention, Trump’s campaign has yanked more than $17 million in ads he’d previously booked in those states.

Two of them, Ohio and Iowa, are must-wins for the Republican president. Polls show him running almost dead even with the former vice president in both. Mr. Trump’s withdrawal of advertising in those states — despite the risk — is a sign of his campaign’s poor financial condition."

 

Trump talks about what he believes are tiny little windows.


Trump falsely claims Green New Deal calls for 'tiny little windows'

excerpt:

"President Trump bashed the Green New Deal during a phone interview Thursday evening, incorrectly telling Fox News host Sean Hannity that it would require builders to use “tiny little windows.”

The climate change-fighting resolution sponsored by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) has been a favored line of attack for Republicans, who often point to policy proposals not actually included in the legislation.

“I mean they literally want to take buildings down and rebuild them with tiny little windows, OK, little windows so you can’t see out, you can’t see the light,” Trump said."

 

The Trump swamp.



200 foreign governments, lobbying groups, and individuals that poured money into Trump's businesses profited from his administration: NYT

excerpt:

"It documents how foreign government officials, corporate executives, lobbyists, and attorneys patronized Trump businesses and were awarded lucrative federal contracts, ambassadorship, and appointments to federal task forces. Others secured legal changes. For some, the favor granted by the president was a tweet.

According to the Times investigation, 60 individuals spent $12 million in Trump's hotels and resorts, and "almost all saw their interests advanced, in some fashion, by the president or his government.""

 

Trump's healthcare plan is just around the corner (after his promises started in 2015 and after three and a half years of his administration and no plan). It's so secret that even his own officials don't know what it is when asked by journalists.

The vaccine is just around the corner that will save everyone from a terrible virus that Trump says affects just about no one. Trump thinks his CDC director, Redfield, is confused for not agreeing with him.



Donald Trump White House Rally Speech Transcript October 10: First Event Since COVID Diagnosis - Rev

excerpts:

We’re going to build up a peaceful and safer neighborhood program like you haven’t seen with the highest standards of policing, we’ll create a healthcare system that delivers better care at a lower cost. Obamacare is a disaster. We want to terminate it. We want to get great healthcare. And that’s what we’re doing. Great healthcare. And we’ll always take care of pre-existing conditions, always. And I think we’re at a point where we’re getting and right now if you look at what we’ve done in healthcare, people don’t talk about it. We’ve done an incredible job. Less expensive healthcare… Much better healthcare at a much less expensive price. You can’t do better than that. And it’s happening and it’s happening fast."


"I want you to know our nation’s going to defeat this terrible China virus, as we call it and we’re producing powerful therapies and drugs and we’re healing the sick and we’re going to recover. And the vaccine is coming out very, very quickly in record time. As you know, it’s coming out very, very soon. We have great, great companies doing it and there’ll be distributing it. And we will through our military very, very rapidly, through the power of the American spirit, I think more than anything else, science medicine will eradicate the China virus once and for all. We’ll get rid of it all over the world. You see big flare ups in Europe, big flare ups in Canada, very big flare up in Canada, you saw that today. A lot of flare ups, but it’s going to disappear. It is disappearing and with vaccines are going to help and the therapeutics are going to help a lot."
