Donald Trump's Public Service Announcement
-
@bskeet I appreciated Colbert’s commentary on that:
“Here’s the thing,” Colbert said Monday. “We can criticize Trump’s golfing and tweeting. But when he hunkers down and focuses on the problem, that’s when he really sucks.”
To illustrate his point, Colbert cited Trump’s appearance at the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta on Friday, which included the president claiming he might have a “natural ability” for science in part because his uncle had attended MIT.
“I don’t care how smart your uncle was—epidemiology is not genetic,” a flabbergasted Colbert said on Monday. “You don’t get your mother’s eyes and your father’s Ph.D.—knowledge does not get passed down. That’s why, no matter how much we all know it now, future generations are going to have to learn for themselves that you’re an idiot.”
-
@bskeet I saw that
box of rocks
-
I suppose if you grow up in a nepotistic environment, you might have a world view that a Ph.D. is inheritable… Just like all the other resources and entitlements.
-
think trump is doing great job. Sorry.
-
And what would the Manchurian president Biden do ? Oh wait he will not be in charge. My bad.
-
@approxinfinity im not getting updates? Or I would have responded sooner

Sorry had to respond. It’s you and your party that is offering out gifts with no way to pay for them. You know entitlements?
-
Ah I love you guys. Nothing like voting for a president that doesn’t know where he is half the time or who he his talking too. Yet somehow you are going to teach me? Um I’ll pass sorry guys
-
What is really sad? You guys are hoping trump fails. So many Americans can die. So you can get a president more to your liking. So sad
-
Just sad
-
60 million Americans were infected with the swine flu resulting in 274,304 hospitalizations and 12,469 deaths. No media panic no trashing the president Barack Obama and no travel ban. Yet I’m supposed to trust you guys? I’ll pass. I’m not like the black Americans believing in And showing loyalty to a Dem party that has done nothing for them in The history of this country. Other than show up every four years to get your vote.

-
So gullible

See this is exactly the problem that I previously stated. Trump is a floundering blackhole that sucks all attention away from the actual issue at hand. I don’t hope he fails. He fails regardless of how I feel. I just want him and this twisted Stockholm sydrome logic to get out of our lives. Do you honestly think I want people to die so we can get rid of Trump? Might want to walk that one back.

I DON’T HAVE A PARTY. The current republicans have made damn sure of that.
Historically, I have voted republican more than democrat.
Open your eyes.
-
@bskeet yep, I personally don’t think a person on the ballot deserves a vote. Vote them all out and start fresh
-
Our two-party system have set up a Prisoners Dilemma. We the people are caught in the middle.
That said, I’m ready to take the devil-I-know-less. (Although, I’ll acknowledge that line of thinking is partly what led Trump to be elected.)
-
You know that website Trump went on and on about today and they even had the flowchart? Turns out it’s not a thing. Like at all. https://www.wired.com/story/coronavirus-donald-trump-google-website/
That the administration can’t figure out what its own approach to this is makes me pull my hair out. It’s not that hard to make sure you’re all on the same page.
-
Sounds like to me they are on the same page. In fact it appears they are changing how America handles these outbreaks in the future. Crazy thing a lot of countries are following suit. Interesting?
-
@DoubleDD we will see, talk is cheap. If we start taking these things more seriously going forward and actually follow up on reliable and safe vaccines that would obviously a huge plus.

Yes they’re on the same page which is why the White House had to say most everything Trump said in his Oval Office address wasn’t correct, then they hype up a website that doesn’t exist in the Rose Garden. I would hope they could at least get the basics right instead of people panicking overseas because they think they can’t get home or going to find a website that doesn’t exist.

Is this what delusion looks like? Kind of validating that whole “shoot someone on broadway” line from several years ago.

To be equal opportunity about this, I had a legit lol https://twitter.com/badecontakes/status/1238534969795829760?s=21

Not sure why anyone would want to make excuses for someone who makes mistakes that put people’s lives at stake. It’s a little different from running a luxury property and miscommunicating to staff where the 401k website is.
-
Beyond parody. He’s treating this like a real estate deal. https://twitter.com/kbandersen/status/1239227651027501057?s=21

Tonight he’s talking about revising CDC’s guidelines to “open up” the country within weeks. Madness.

Don’t worry buddy, Biden not going to be a President of anything , unless it’s the PTA. Poor old Bernie getting beat the hell up by everybody - -BUT not to worry they Democrats still have an Ace up their sleeve, saving their best for last - they still have Hilleary, sleep well my friend

@jayballer73 this is either entering wingnut territory or a very good trolling.

Na neither really but anyways keep the faith buddy - - -you gonna be ok. - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 you think the Democrats are going to give Hillary the nomination?

I think there is no shortage of liquor to help get us through the virus and the election.

I think you’re on to something. Virginia’s governor shut down non essential businesses but called ABC an essential business, mumbling something about to “adhere to social distancing and sanitation measures.”
I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
I drink alone, yeah
With nobody else
You know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself

@approxinfinity And it is good for disinfecting. New idea:
Breathe through your mouth and drink heavily to disinfect your throat. Better than snorting Lysol.

She is about as good as your other choices. - -Bernie is DONE trash - -out - -finished , and Biden can’t even follow his teleprompter dude has some serious and just looks totally lost, Democrats are grasping at straws for a leader grasping at straws and coming up with twigs, either one of these two guys and Trump is a Shoe-in for re-election, get ready - it’s coming. Hang in there buddy you be all right. Just remember ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

You seemed to have lost a word there. Do I think you’re senile? No. Do you think if I took 100 of your sentences where you may have dropped a word (everyone does it) and strung them together in one post trying to convince the public that you’re senile (i.e. a Fox News smear job) you might appear senile to someone who takes my word for it? Maybe.
Would Fox News have you believe that Biden is senile by only showing you clips of where he stumbles on a word? For sure. Is he actually senile? No.

Further proof MAGA bots and Bernie Bro’s are the same people.

LOL - - there is only one problem with that. That’s I don’t give a flying F if people think I’m Senile or not , & that even include you . Do I care if your think I’m Senile ? - -Hell No I don’t , but then again I’m not trying to become the leader of this nation either - - HUGE difference. This is NO a one time thing with Biden it’s things like this that since he is giving his attempt to become the leader this has happened multiple times, but doesn’t matter to me really, you see cause I don’t stick with ONE part affiliation I’m going to vote for who I think is the better at the time but it sure isn’t Biden but I’m not going to have to worry about that.
Now I will say this for sure I am against this thing 10000000% Trump is talking about now , and that’s sending people BACK to work before we get some kind of grip on this virus that is lust plain lnsanity. - Ha maybe he fits with me as you said about me insane - -well goodie… They are talking about the mortality rate being right at 1% and that being the elderly with under lying conditions. It’s just like the NY Gov saying it’s like and they said well they are old they are going to die anyways - that’s just totally screwed up, and that is the way this comes across, lets take our chances and if the elderly die they die . Let’s get back to work.
Oh and Again I don’t care if you don’t say anything as you said about my running sentences together, forget to place a word, I think if you even begin to try you can figure out what the hell I’m saying, either way I will still sleep just fine. I’m not trippin whether people can figure out my context I’m not the one runnin for office there Buddy , but thanks for your concern. stay safe

@jayballer73 Your feelings about whether people think you’re senile were not my point nor are they relevant. You aren’t senile.
I’m saying give Biden a chance and assume that he isn’t senile and didn’t somehow magically get within a stones throw of the highest office in the land despite being senile. He’s not senile. That just isn’t what is happening here. If that is what you’re seeing then I’m asking to please consider watching the last democratic debate. He murdered Bernie. See it with your own eyes, then judge.
Look, I was in the same camp as you. Biden seemed to be losing it. But I watched that debate and he was sharp as a tack, and he even said that he’s a very good delegator. I don’t think Fauci would be facepalming behind a President Biden or saying “what do you want me to do? I can’t throw him off the podium” about hte president (i paraphrase). Biden would not get in the way during this crisis because he would have the right people making decisions.

Have a good day buddy it will all work out. Really think your not riding a very good horse if your banking on Biden but it’s America - -it’s your choice. Just vote, can’t stand people who wanna bitch ( not saying you ) but if People want to bitch about how the Country is run but yet won’t exercise their right to vote? - -you don’t vote then you can’t say shit. I always tell people do you realize how many people from these other Countries would give to be able to get the chance to vote instead of a leader being forced on them?
That’s why I say VOTE. - to many people wanna pop of and moan and Bitch but they don’t vote. - you don’t vote then shut the hell up. - -have a great day buddy

And now you know the rest of the story!

Trump supporters after his speech today
-
@BShark this will be the biggest “I told you so” of all time to the trumpers. Hell I’m even mostly conservative but just can not stand him right now. Any of them really.
-
All I can say, watching the effort to provide a trillion dollars in corporate welfare, is that it is a damned good thing Bernie and socialism have no chance of defeating this wonderful capitalist system conservatives are always Trump-eting so we can let business prosper without all that government.

@mayjay http://brownpoliticalreview.org/2017/11/stephen-colbert-pitfalls-modern-political-satire/
Satire is so 2014. If only we could afford such a luxury. May I indulge with you?
That’s my President, Making America Great Again!

You do realize the stimulus was only for firms with less than 500 employees, right? https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/3548/text#id0083745a95bd4554a6ca6943922b841f
