To the surprise of no one, Trump is trying to set expectations so high at ~ 2,000,000 American deaths due to COVID-19 that when only 100,000 - 200,000 die, it'll look like he somehow miraculously saved us!

Does this mean you'll support withdrawing from the UN?

Trump Says GOP Would Never Win Again if Democrats’ Voting Provisions Made It into Stimulus Bill

https://lawandcrime.com/2020-election/t ... ulus-bill/

President Donald Trump offered an assessment of a national vote-by-mail standard during a Fox News interview on Monday morning, saying that if such a provision made it into the COVID-19 stimulus bill–as Democrats hoped–Republicans would never win an election again.

“The things they had in there were crazy,” Trump said of easily-defeated Democratic Party requests to fund a vote-by-mail system during an appearance on Fox & Friends. “They had things–levels of voting, that if you ever agreed to it, you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again.”

"A month ago nobody had ever heard of this".
"I know South Korea better than anyone else".

Such an amazing leader.

Trump broke Tribe.

Just general pettiness on this one

Trump tried to flex by asking a reporter about the population of Seoul. Then he got it wrong by 28 million.

The third prong was to designate a health emergency response coordinator and create a new Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense within the National Security Council.

To ensure that the new Global Health Security and Biodefense Directorate’s mission would survive into the new administration intact, the outgoing White House team selected a career civil servant—a respected Pentagon biodefense expert named Elizabeth Cameron—to lead it, providing continuity from one administration to the next.

As 2017 turned to 2018 and 2018 turned to 2019, each prong of this strategy fell away like wheels off a bus.

Fuck this guy, and his enablers:

"I know South Korea better than anybody," Trump said. "It's a very tight — do you know how many people are in Seoul? Do you know how big the city of Seoul is? 38 million people. That's bigger than anything we have."

As someone very wise just said:

I almost posted the same, wondering how hard it is to issue a blanket "No", to everything?

"But, but, we were too busy obstructing justice and enabling a pathological liar. Really!"

But then, I understand where McConnell is coming from, because if "science" was kryptonite to everything I'd based my political and professional existence on, why would I pay any attention to the impending pandemic the scientists were constantly harping about? Because



"Hoax!"

all of the praise, none of the blame

Trump held rallies on: —Jan 9th —Jan 14th —Jan 28th —Jan 30th —Feb 10th —Feb 19th —Feb 20th —Feb 21st —Feb 28th He golfed on: —Jan 18th —Jan 19th —Feb 1st —Feb 15th —Mar 7th —Mar 8th But sure, impeachment (ended Feb 5th) is what stopped him from responding to the coronavirus.
