My willingness to subject myself to Trump's daily propaganda sessions is somewhere south of way waned.

Honest to Gaia, I don't know why you would.

I catch the highlights from my Twitter feed, but you couldn't make me watch him.

You get too excited?

Not sure if posted before?

Do I understand correctly that Novartis, the makers of hydrocloroquine, is one of the companies that paid money for access to Trump into Michael Cohen's slush fund that he used to pay Stormy Daniels ?

Does that sentence even make sense? Maybe I'm reading it incorrectly, it is before 8am here...what an awkward sentence.

I am sure it's just a coincidence that they gave money to Cohen and now have the President touting their product in his updates...

This is a once in a blue moon occurrence. I am going to somewhat defend Trump here.
You guys do realize that there are different manufactures of hydrocloroquine - right?

The mother fucker couldn't name Crozier or Modly. Unreal!

The mother fucker couldn't address a question about Wells Fargo without going off on a reporter because he didn't like that she didn't make nice and ask the question in positive enough manner for his liking.

The mother fucker just said the Governor in Georgia has been doing a very good job.

The mother fucker just asked an Asian reporter if she's working for China.

The mother fucker just told a female reporter that she was horrid.

The mother fucker just called a reporter a 3rd rate reporter and said he will never make it.

The mother fucker just mentioned the border between Mexico and the United Sates when he was asked about STATE borders.
THREE TIMES he referenced the US/Mexico border when not asked anything pertaining to it.

The mother fucker just told the same FAKE story about the restaurant owner that he spoke about yesterday. Yesterday it was a 150 seat restaurant. Today it was a 200 seat restaurant. He's a habitual lying sack of shit.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that maybe you might feel better if you stopped watching things that make your blood boil. Just a thought.

HD - I believe your post is well intended and if so, I sincerely appreciate it.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say if we didn't have a complete dickhead President behaving like an asshole while he is addressing the country during a "war" - and if I didn't feel he was MORE than just somewhat incompetent and clueless - my blood might not boil in terms of my feelings on how he treats others and what he says (and doesn't say) during his pressers.

I find it really interesting when conservatives tell me they don't watch the pressers - and ask others why they do watch them. He's the guy many/most of you elected to be our President. Now you don't care to see him /listen to him and what he has to say during a "war"/crisis?

Why the fuck wouldn't I watch them? Am I not supposed to give a shit that OUR LEADER, OUR PRESIDENT and his advisors along with "medical experts" are addressing the country during a "war"?
A "war" in which at the moment is affecting me in several ways.

It's fucking insane when I feel a need to explain to others why I feel it's important for me (and/or anyone else) to listen to/watch the President and his advisors and medical experts speak during a MAJOR crisis in this country.
A crisis in which possibly 100,000 or more Americans might lose their lives and as you said less than 16 hours ago in which we are going through an "economic apocalypse".

Anyways, I swear I don't work for the Huff Post.

I've only happened to watch some of his "briefings," but it's obvious that he berates female reporters and especially female reporters of color or of Asian descent. And sometimes he goes off on male reporters as well, especially when they follow up on the questions the women reporters have asked.

I don't really have a good thread to put this in, but probably doesn't warrant its own thread, since pretty inside baseball. But...

Grisham out as West Wing press secretary without having held a briefing

https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/07/politics ... index.html

(CNN)White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham is leaving the job without ever having briefed the press. CNN has learned she is returning to the East Wing as first lady Melania Trump's chief of staff as President Donald Trump's new chief of staff Mark Meadows shakes up the communications team in the West Wing.

Meadows is currently considering several candidates for the press secretary job, including Trump campaign spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany. The new chief of staff is also considering hiring Alyssa Farah, the current spokeswoman for the Defense Department, for a communications role, among others, two sources with knowledge of the situation told CNN.

Farah has held several roles in the Trump administration. After leaving her job as the spokeswoman for the House Freedom Caucus to become Vice President Mike Pence's press secretary, she moved to the Pentagon last August. But this would be her first position in the West Wing. Farah has remained close with Meadows since her days at the Freedom Caucus.

Grisham, who still speaks with first lady Melania Trump on a daily basis, is returning to where she has spent the majority of her time in the administration, the East Wing.

Grisham did not immediately respond to a CNN request for comment.

But he digs the female OAN reporter who interviewed a guy who insists the Coronavirus was created in a lab in North Carolina.

It's a "once in a blue moon occurence" that someone who gave money to a politician to get favors from that politician is now benefitting from favors from that politician? Do tell.
