Donny's Coronavirus Plan Would Gut Social Security
President* Trump's love affair with a payroll tax holiday or permanent payroll tax reduction continues.

Will the seniors who voted for this moron EVER wake up and smell the coffee?

Lowering payroll tax when people can't work? CV obviously just the excuse here.

Donny's ‘LIBERATE MICHIGAN!’ tweets incite insurrection. That’s illegal.
Federal law bans advocating the overthrow of government.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlo...-constitution/

Quote:
It’s an echo of the “Second Amendment remedies” rhetoric of the 2010 midterm election. It’s clearly a violation of federalism principles, and it’s quite possibly a crime under federal law. And insurrection or treason against state government is a crime in Virginia, Michigan and Minnesota, as well as most states. Assembling with others to train or practice using firearms or other explosives for use during a civil disorder is also a crime in many states. But the president* himself is calling for just that.
Lock him up! And throw away the key...

When the numbers of infected people increase, when the number of deaths from the epidemic rise again, who will tRump blame this time? The only silver lining in this is that probably the majority of those who get sick this time will be tRump supporters. Yes I said that.

Federalism has become another casualty of Trump and the coronavirus
Democratic governors can’t rely on the president to protect citizens and Republican governors must act as lackeys of a monarch

Donny said China may have started the coronavirus deliberately, as top advisers claim attacking Beijing may be the best way for the president* to save his job

https://www.businessinsider.com/trum...erately-2020-4

"Disgrace" doesn't even begin to describe the depths of Donny's depravity.

Scientists’ world of truth and knowledge couldn’t be further from Trump’s

President* Trump’s goal — on the days that one is discernible — is the maintenance of power. His method is to claim personal credit for anything that goes right, to blame others for anything that goes wrong, and to complain, and complain, and complain about his shockingly bad treatment at the hands of the media, his political enemies and the “deep state.” He does not argue for his view of events. He pounds his points with the oral equivalent of all-caps. And he assumes (on good evidence) that anyone who shares his side in the culture war will embrace his delusional, self-serving depiction of reality. Or that people will at least conclude that no one’s version of reality can really be trusted.

Trump unfiltered is like a badly polluted canal. The scraps of narcissism, the rotten remnants of conspiracy theories, the offal of sour grievance, the half-eaten bits of resentment flow by. They do not cohere. But they move in the same, insistent current of self, self, self.
