Luee,  if you acknowledge megalomania, lying, and bad economics,  then I can only nod and tip my hat to an alert and open mind.   

(due to an unfortunate experiment with self-trepanation in my twenties,  tipping my hat also opens my mind...)

Trump goes on TV to tell the nation and the world he has no idea what is going on in his administration and that he takes no responsibility for it.
Well, he has a sign on his desk that reads, "The Buck Stops Elsewhere".

What a hellish future view. No sports, a killer pandemic, and an elected megalomaniac leader who does not bother with the truth.

Oh, but he did a few good things for the veterans, before also shafting them!

And he’s keeping the surging hordes of brown primitives out of the country

The prez did a few good things as well. The vets, secure borders, a national identity, along with the bad. I am not a big fan of the trickle down.

The borders are no more secure than they were before he got elected.

Our "national identity" was a joke before the coronavirus travesty. It is more of one, now.

And he's screwed the vets and their families, but you keep pretending he didn't.

The bill will be amended and resubmitted.

It'll only take a few days.

What's a few days, right?



Dems counted on an "urgency" plea from the masses when they tried to slip in the extras.  Trump wasn't biting.  ".  ..things they have been pushing for for 25 years..." getting a NO DICE.

He always thought that song from WWI was about that: "Over there! Over there!"

It didn't get passed because it did not explicitly state that abortions could not be paid for with federal money.

Once again, you make a claim with no substance to support it.

Still waiting for the particulars you claim AOC got wrong.

Not holding my breath.

You love making accusations without supporting them. It's not just that you aren't here to debate -- you aren't here to be honest.

Not that anybody should have expected him to take any responsibility for it.

I'm even willing to grant that he likely believes that. His level of self-deception is even higher than Ward's and Kid's.

"Leadership" in action.

Quote
Asked whether he took responsibility for disbanding the office of pandemics, Trump called it "a nasty question" (it wasn't) before adding: "When you say 'me,' I didn't do it. We have a group of people [in the administration]. But I could perhaps ask Tony about that, because I don't know anything about it."

As for the lack of coronavirus test kits currently available -- a "failing" acknowledged by Fauci, Trump reached back to the previous administration's handling of the H1N1 swine flu in 2009.

"Ask them how they did with swine flu," said Trump. "They had a very big disaster."
