How can people this stupid continue to walk around and breathe at the same time?
I saw that earlier and thought it clearly had the signs of propaganda.
Politico is sketchy.
Can’t help stupid. People seem to be able to tolerate authoritarianism as long as it doesn’t hurt them personally.
So, AP releases a story about the tax filing date change and their typo “… from July 15 to April 15” is propagating throughout news feeds everywhere.
Doesn’t anybody pay attention any more?
Yep, and worse yet, they cling to it in times like these.
So many are like scared children now, looking for a strong daddy figure. Trump serves that role just fine (for many), just by claiming constantly that he’s the expert and he’s in control of things.
Or they don’t think it’s hurting them personally.
Terrifyingly true. Despite the dog’s breakfast he’s making of this, he sounds so comfortingly authoritarian.
While Trump makes the stinkscreen, Moscow Mitch carries on the real work.
eta: On the plus side, he’s worried about losing control of the White House and Senate. Just one or the other and it’s not really a problem.
No golf 4 U
When the going gets horrible, the horrible turn pro.
Hey, remember back during peak Russiagate, when the liberal establishment was waxing poetic about the honor and integrity of the noble FBI?
I just wanna make it long enough to hear that that utter failure of a human being has succumbed to the virus.
Any news of his imminent demise, whatever the means, will be welcome.
Trump’s retweets signal desire to end social distancing after 15 days
From CNN’s Nikki Carvajal
President Trump is sending retweets that seem to be encouraging an end to strong social distancing measures after the current 15-day period, despite concern from public health officials that it won’t be long enough to blunt the worst of the coronavirus.
“15 days,” one user tweeted. “Then we isolate the high risk groups and the rest of us get back to work before it’s all over for everyone!! #Landslide2020”
“Flatten the curve NOT the Economy,” reads a follow up tweet.
“After 15 days are over the world can begin to heal!,” another user tweeted.
Jesus fucking Christ on toast WTF is he doing???
Can you imagine him doing this after a nuclear attack? “Go ahead folks, go outside it’s fine…”
