President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

I never saw her (or him) ever have a genuine smile. Maybe when she met Trudeau?

I think it was Springsteen on one of his Sirius DJ shows said that this President and presidency had no moments of joy or fun. No smiles with the family, a pet or a child.

And as Mile High said, we saw the pandemic coming from Europe and China. From Feb. 29 . . .

Dow plunges 1,000 points on coronavirus fears, 3.5% drop is worst in two years

I don't give a crap what date you want to pin the recession on. The CAUSE was the virus. Period.

 

Love that the New Radicals will be there for the big party.

I hope Danielle Brisbois is going to play with them. BTW, her solo discs are worth hunting down.

 

You’re glomming onto a point someone else made after your bullshit. Fuck off, Ivan.

 

I truly am concerned for Barron. He has never experienced acts of true love and affection, has likely never heard those words uttered to him or between anyone else and sees that there are only 2 types of relationships - unwavering devotion or enemy.

 

Without any question. Hopefully in any case, this will prove to be one of those stopped-clock occasions where the good of the country happens to coincide with what's best for Mitch's political fortunes.

 

I don’t like to psychoanalyze a minor, but he seems a little awkward. Luckily, he seems to have been able to live his life outside of the glaring eyes of the press and social media.

Seems fairly obviously the price for Trump to feel young again with a mid-30s model was to have precisely one more child and to not be burdened with any parental responsibilities.

 

The notion that Trump was going to win this election easily minus the pandemic is just utterly false.

His approval rating was higher on election day than it was prior to the pandemic.

His highest approval rating during his presidency was (briefly) 45.8%. George H.W. Bush left office with an approval rating of 56% -- he lost the popular vote by 6 points.

Just speaking locally, polls in Arizona had Biden beating Trump handily before the pandemic hit.

Trump may have won the election without the pandemic, but that's a stretch, and by no means was he going to win it easily.

 

Cuck alert!

 

What could possibly go wrong?

 

I tried to watch her farewell address. I made it through about 20 seconds when I finally realized a) I couldn't understand a third of what she was saying and b) I didn't believe any of it was sincere in the least
