Do all the White Nationalist Conservatives supposedly leaving Twitter for Parler because "free speech!" know that the name of their new App is French?

Since Trump won't stay away or quarantine, what NJ should do is after Trump leaves, they should shut down his golf club and quarantine the premises for two weeks.

Nice.

Biggest COVID-19 case increases in CA, TX, and FL.

Not because of testing.

US sets record for total number of cases.  Four months into this thing.

Americans should be out-of-their-minds furious that we endured the economic pain of a shutdown, small businesses closing, tens of millions out of work, for absolutely nothing because the man in charge of the Federal response is a total idiot.  Too incompetent to implement an effective reopening plan, and actively torpedoing the efforts by effectively telling people not to wear masks, and backing the idiotic protests of stay-at-home orders.

Now the Tri-State area needs to quarantine visitors from out-of-state so that our efforts aren't similarly wasted.

Trump needs to be dragged from the White House by his toes.  Now.  Not waiting until November.

Well...you're a fucking idiot

Take what you can get.

Welll...Trump's a fucking idiot.

We'll take what we can get.

But that doesn't make Needs wrong. It makes you wrong in your beliefs that Trump was doing a good job to start with and that he has handled this pandemic even close to adequately, let alone well.

Trump should be hauled out of there before his future actions add to the deaths already coming down the pike because of him. He won't be, Kid, and Needs wasn't suggesting that he would be or even that he expected the effort to be made.

But his choices, such as Tulsa, Phoenix, and NJ, smack of narrow-visioned, self-serving ambition and pride, rather than any understanding of what's actually going on in the country. And his inability to discuss the racism rampant in our systems, while not nearly so deadly on a short term basis, serves to illustrate the very problem he is trying steadfastly to ignore.

Trump back up to 35% strong approval today (Rasmussen).  47% overall.  Was at just 28/43% 2 weeks ago.

Trump is staging fireworks, on July 3rd, in the middle of a ponderosa forest (where fireworks have been banned the past 10 years because of the high wildfire danger).  Might want to point your F-bomb where it properly goes. 

We're having a fairly dry spring/summer in the Black Hills.  Not the year for fireworks around Rushmore.

President Obama's approval was as low as 40% during his first term (Gallup) and as low as 45% in June 2012 leading up to reelection.

White never did accept him as president.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Wonder how many innocent people were incarcerated because of these bad cops.



None, Barton.

Very likely - none

I think kiidcarter8 is trying to make the case that Trump's reelection chances are comparable to Obama's by comparing polling numbers from different periods and different polling sources.

And he calls me the fucking idiot...

Trump wants the Confederate Statues put back up.

The man has no clue.

They'd worked decades.  Cops testify in court frequently.  Probably hundreds of cases tried with their testimony.  Based on what they said to each other on that tape, do you think their testimony was fair and unbiased?  If so, I've got a bridge in New York I can sell you for super cheap.

http://thehill.com/homenews/media/504264-mark-cuban-endorses-biden-on-hannity-he-actually-wants-to-run-a-country

Are Hannity viewers educable?

Cuban can purchase 4 or 5 trumps and have change left over for half a dozen Hannities.

Carly Fiorina is also abandoning trump this cycle.

Even white money wants nothing to do with him unless it’s klan money.

Gallup has trump at 39% approve, 57% drag him out by his toes, just so no one starts comparing apples to oranges around here.
