[REDSTATEWARD]

These are some bizarre and unpopular positions.

That he has those who support his every move is even more bizarre.  You've got a democratic mayor in St. Louis and democratic leaning members of this forum are calling for her to resign.  Why can't the republican leaning members of this forum once in a while criticize their own elected officials?

If this is  a quiz then give us a hint.

By unanimous consent, the PPP loan program passed the House.

Wow.

NZ's health minister has stepped down, after they determined that he is more of a distraction than a help at this stage, despite his prior work on coronavirus and the overall state of things in NZ.

Personal responsibility for poor decisions on the part of a head of a major department.

How peculiar!

Maybe Trump will just disappear one day.

And the sooner the better.

He's a super-spreader of CV and a clear and present danger to Americans.

Up over 50,000 new cases for the first time in a day.

In Oklahoma, they ran two groups of tests and 100% tested positive.

Recently, health officials say they have seen a steady incline in cases across the state as more people go out in public and community spread increases.

Recently, a rumor claims that the increase in cases is due to the health department including positive antibody test results into the daily coronavirus case numbers. However, health department officials tell KFOR that is not the case.

n a briefing to the City Council, Smith expressed concern that in recent weeks there have been parties held throughout the city and surrounding Tuscaloosa County, "where students, or kids, would come in with known positive," according to a video recording of the meeting obtained by ABC affiliate station WBMA in Birmingham.

"We thought that was kind of a rumor at first," Smith told the council members. "We did some research. Not only do the doctors' offices confirm it but the state confirmed they also had the same information."

...
Just hours after Smith's briefing, the City Council unanimously passed an ordinance requiring people to wear face coverings when out in public.

An Axios-Ipsos coronavirus poll published last week found 65 per cent of Democrats wore masks, compared to 35 per cent of Republicans.

Contrary to Kid's posturing about underyling causes:

Nationally, the percentage of Democrats who reported wearing a mask all the time when leaving home rose from 49% between April 10 and May 4 to 65% between May 8 and June 22.
During the same time period, the percentage of Republicans who reported constant mask-wearing rose from 29% to just 35%.

Much of that is on the leadership of both Trump and state governors:

"We want to make sure that individual liberty is not infringed upon by government and hence government cannot require individuals to wear a mask," Texas Governor Greg Abbott told a local television station, despite his state experiencing record new daily cases.

Arizona's Republican Governor also initially refused to mandate the use of masks before he eventually backtracked in response to surging numbers.

Trump.  I've never seen him criticized by the Trump supporters.  There's gotta be ONE thing you don't like, no?  Or does he walk on water?

Kid in the past noted that Trump's pettiness bothered him.

Ward in the past has complained about one of Trump's monetary policies.

"Pong Fest" party.

A few teens attend who are awaiting their test results.

Not quite as stupid as the ones organizing a party to see who gets it first (and wins the pot of money), but plenty stupid.

As pointed out a few minutes ago, kid routinely flunks stress tests to back-up his posts

its sort of his MO for close to 25 years.

His come back for lack of facts is, that he's not going to defend his actions, why are you debating in this forum?, he changes the argument, or posts in the Knicks forum

heh

SSDD

Its a completely foreign mindset to me.  How do you make a statement without having an example in mind that backs it, then when called on it, think the onus is on others to come up with examples that support your own argument?

I find a mind that thinks that way as perplexing as a mind that thinks Trump has done a good job.  Not a surprise that both come packaged in the same person here.

Alternative reality...

I wonder what Distracted Donald was too occupied doing to not read his daily briefing detailing the intel on Russians putting a bounty on Americans?

Thinking up new tarriffs for China?

Writing a love letter to Kim Jong-Un? 

watching Fox n Friends?

watching Cartoon Network?   

Working on his short game in the Oval Office?
 
Getting a Clorox enema?

Trump’s “Clorox enema“ is when he bends over the Resolute Desk and has the cleaning staff bang him like they were Roy Cohn. The slimy lawyer convinced trump decades ago, between his second and third bankruptcies, that getting his muffin stuffed by a bareback rider would help donald live for ever, so he’s expecting it will protect him from Corona Virus.

Working on his short game sounds like trump looking for his penis. No doubt he spends a lot of time doing that, something he’s less successful at and more obsessed with even than building a wall.
