President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

New rule.

Nobody can use the Applebee's example without first supplying evidence that SOMEONE actually complained about not being able to go there.

This shit just makes people look like sheep.

 

Most of them know what they’re airing is crazy. Helps to remember that the guy who owns it is crazy.

 

In light of the coronavirus outbreak at the White House, I demand a total and complete shutdown until our nation's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.

 

I have a serious question: Is OANN as much a fuckin joke as Air America Radio Network was, or on the same plane?

I must confess I always had a soft nougaty center for Janeane Garofalo, so I have heard some Air America in my time.

And we all seem to have a very old aunt who believes "Plandemic".

These are Random Thoughts before I head out in the snow flurries (!) to scoop up dog shit.

 

This is one hell of an introductory paragraph.

"I have been smack in the middle of so many political sex scandals that it embarrasses me to enumerate them. In addition to the 2016 campaign replete with Donald Trump bragging about assaulting women and trying to bully Hillary Clinton as being her husband’s “mean enabler,” Monica Lewinsky was my intern in the Clinton White House. I was part of John Edwards’s presidential campaign and helped him and his wife, Elizabeth, deal with the public and private fallout from his extramarital affair. Finally, in what I have decided is nothing more than a troubling coincidence, Tara Reade was an intern in a congressional office where I worked just after I graduated from college."

I think it’s the latter. The “whackadoodles” I know could not pull off something like OAN. It’s a cynical play. Sucker is born every minute.

 

And Trump is ready to jump in and take it over. If he'd lost he was thinking about starting one. This one he can boost the signal on until he's out of office, then buy in.

 

This I really don't understand. Are traders banking on more government bailouts of big industry? That when the Trumpests start the revolution all businesses will be reopened and everyone will be mandated to get a haircut? That more jobs will be open for white people when all of the poor minorities die from this? Are people shorting stocks so they can make ungodly sums when Yankee Nationals (whatever he's calling himself now) Fan starts to buy the dips?

The economy is shit. Supply chains are breaking down (and not because of the SIP). Unemployment is creeping to depression levels. Early restarts mean we can bank on the fact we're going to have a second wave of this. At first I thought the stock market was doing well because they knew once we reopened, the pent up demand would bring business back. I don't think that's going to be the case any more.

 

About time he spoke up.

I don't mind that he chooses his moments. Someone who chooses his words can actually say a lot when he finally speaks.

 

NC Gov is a Dem. So is the mayor of Charlotte. The Republican convention is in Charlotte. Interesting politics.
