The relevant political fact is gross hypocrisies( even minor ones) turn into major problems when mouthed by the ruling class.

And yet, you have nothing to say about the far grosser hypocrisies of the "president."

Which makes you a bigger hypocrite than Nancy Pelosi on her worst day.

LOL!

Says the hypocrite.

Time for this bullshit to start being deleted.

Ah.. of course.
The great liberal response.
Censorship.

It’s only censorship when the government does it.

As a private enterprise the management can decide what gets displayed... and what gets shit canned.

[bodiddley]

To be able to get his hair right, Trump actually changed national water conservation regulations. 

I could look it up and provide citations, but it's from just last month when Trump talked about needing his hair to be perfect and the current showerhead flow being insufficient for such perfection.

Censorship is the suppression of speech, public communication, or other information, on the basis that such material is considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or "inconvenient." Censorship can be conducted by governments, private institutions, and other controlling bodies.

[facilitatorn]

You hoot like a wounded ape. Your posts in question convey no information. You don’t have enough on the ball to be objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient. When you bring nothing to the table there is nothing to lose if it’s taken away.

Trolling

Sealioning (also spelled sea-lioning and sea lioning)
A type of trolling or harassment which consists of pursuing people with persistent requests for evidence or repeated questions, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity. It may take the form of "incessant, bad-faith invitations to engage in debate".

Trump continues to denigrate the wearing of masks.

And tens or maybe hundreds of thousands of Americans continue to heed his words, leading to way too many people's illnesses.

Insiders report on the "president" using words to describe his feelings about our military men and women, but we already knew.

We knew when he said of McCain "I like people who weren't captured."
We knew when he called his Generals "a bunch of dopes."
We knew it when he said that troops getting traumatic brain injuries is "not serious."
We knew when he said nothing (literally, nothing) about Putin putting a price on the lives of our soldiers in Afghanistan.
We knew when he said nothing (again, literally nothing) about Russian forces injured seven American soldiers in Syria.

He doesn't give a shit.  He might as well have written that very phrase in fireworks above the Washington Monument, and people are shocked now because he said the words?

You know who isn't shocked?  REDSTATEWARD and kiidcarter8.  They know who Trump is.  They know it well.  They don't give a shit either, what Trump does to our troops or our democracy, because they hate Taxes and Brown people.

Today's quiz:

At the heart of Donald Trump's statement is a lack of respect for those who have served - a disqualifying characteristic to be president

Who said it?

[NeedsAdjustments]

And meanwhile, after Trump (again) said that people should vote twice, his Attorney General is lying about a voting fraud case involving mail-in ballots:

In his latest warning about the dangers of mass mail-in voting, Attorney General William P. Barr pointed to a case in Texas that he said highlighted the risk of fraud.

“Elections that have been held with mail have found substantial fraud and coercion,” Barr told CNN on Wednesday. “For example, we indicted someone in Texas, 1,700 ballots collected, he — from people who could vote, he made them out and voted for the person he wanted to. Okay?”

Federal prosecutors brought no such indictment. And while a Justice Department spokeswoman said Barr was referring to a local prosecution involving suspected mail-in voting fraud in a city council election, the assistant district attorney on that case said Barr’s description doesn’t match the facts.

“That’s not what happened at all,” said Andy Chatham, who is now in private practice.

These are bad people, cultists who don't give a shit about this country when it comes between them and their dear leader.  How many other ways can we find to say it?  Well, how many more examples are they going to give.

IHME is projecting 400,000 COVID-19 deaths by January 1 ---> and that's their average model, assuming no changes in how we approach things. It brings with it daily deaths hitting 3,000.

I am skeptical of their model, but what I like to do is hit this page, then roll back the date of when a projection was made to see how they did compared to reality. It helps me to evaluate the effectiveness of the models/modelers. They track 14 of them.

CDC tracks more than 30 models. Different total models for daily deaths than for total deaths of which there are a couple more, [i[including Walmart[/i]!
