About what you would expect.

Calculated to appeal to his base and that's about it.

Trump does everything he can to shore up his support with the Taliban, the Kremlin, and pedophile priests.

Somehow, at the intersection of these three groups, we find Kiid and Red.

So the prez is going to hold super spreader rallies around the country. With masks and social distancing considered a nuisance.

The lives of his supporters are pretty much all he has left to squander.

You can be sure as shit he’s going all out to squander them.

He’s got a compulsive mental disorder.

It gives him no trouble killing people, but it makes him the worst possible president and a truly terrible human being.

Grasping for a comeback, President Donald Trump and his Republican allies are intensifying their focus not on Democratic nominee Joe Biden, but on his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris — arguing without evidence that it’s Harris, the first Black woman on a major party ticket, who would really be in charge if Democrats win the White House.

The effort is laced with sexist and racist undertones, and one that is aimed at winning back Republicans and independents who are comfortable with Biden’s more moderate record, but may associate Harris with Democrats’ left flank, despite her own more centrist positions on some major issues.

9 cases were detected at a hospital in Qingdao.  So China immediately isolated them and contact traced a few levels down and tested all of those.  Then tested another 3M people.  And plan to test all 9M in the general area by the end of the week.

The kind of efficiency, national organization and seriousness of purpose Americans can hardly imagine.

These are the first known cases of domestic transmission in 2 months, and the minor August outbreak was on the fringe of China out in far west Xinjiang, out by the border with Kazakhstan and other central Asian lands.  This was the first reported/confirmed domestic transmission in the main populated part of China in nearly 4 months.

One major concern with this new outbreak follows a week long double holiday from Oct. 1 - 8 which meant that a lot of domestic tourists came to Qingdao and returned home.  Shanghai's tourist areas were pretty packed and Qingdao is a pleasant coastal city, one of the few Chinese cities that isn't overcrowded.  So that holiday in- and outflux complicates contact tracing with the possibility of long distance transmission.

You’ve found a central limb of trump’s mental disorder that he shares with almost all of his remaining supporters.

China is interfering in our election. They are showing trump up by demonstrating what he could be doing if he didn’t suck.

And now even the republicans have moved on from trump,

"But there's nothing anybody could have done" in America. I keep being told that by Trump supporters.
