I think behind that type of opinion is that he may not be soft and caring but he's a brilliant businessman who knows best for America. The new tax information would suggest otherwise. He was a flim flam man making money from hamburger adds, and dodgy promotions and schemes, to offset other huge losses, and it was the Apprentice that financially saved him. Ironic that the Apprentice is just more illusion. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump and his followers have zero empathy for others, its all about "Me, me, me". And you wonder why Americans have such a bad rep with the rest of the world? If it were only about zero empathy. I've repeatedly pointed out and posted that nasty video of Trump ridiculing Clinton when she had pneumonia. Trump supporters simply ignore it. I guess, there's no way that even they can explain that away. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But consider the timing here. Trump just can't help himself. What a showman! He will ace the sympathy vote. Furthermore, if as a virile dude jacked up on HCQ and zinc(for which he was mauled by the haters) he beats covid with no sweat, will it be enough to persuade the left to come out from under their beds and get on with life? An incredible show. Go Donald Trump, let's beat this thing and heal the world. Symphati vote? When he have being an idiot getting the virus? The most powerful man in the world, with the biggest security system knocked out by a virus? Symphati my ..... if its one who could have avoided this, it is himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he would have stayed quarantined in the WH with some sort of bought-off doctor (like Ronnie Jackson), that's what I expected. With the hospital info is liable to leak out. On the other hand the info shutdown on the "series of mini-strokes" has been pretty solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIRCHRISSAKE - the Bob Woodward recorded interviews have 45 in his own voice admitting he knew the severity of Covid yet knowingly lied about it, resulting in tens of thousands of unnecessary, preventable deaths. Still the sheep willingly respond in one or more of the following: (D)eny (I)gnore (L)ie (D)eflect (O)bfuscate There really is no hope for those who will not face the truth that 45 is a murderer, a cheat, a liar, a racist/sexist/homophobe. 3 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post In the jungle Posted October 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2020 Two Republican senators who attended the super spreader nomination event for ACB to the Supreme Court held at the White House this week have now tested positive for Covid. Given that the Senate vote on her nomination must be in person that leaves her nomination hanging in the balance. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has other people around him, some of whom may be slightly smarter. Cunning is his strength, that "what are YOU gonna do?" attitude. That's what got him this far. As a poet friend would have put it (were he still alive) "God answered that question" in this case. Just a few days ago I was thinking about the way he does this, especially with the epidemic. It's like banging his head against a brick wall and constantly telling those around him "See? The wall is starting crumble!" Oh yeah, thoughts and prayers etc. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironic that the Apprentice is just more illusion. Trump has personally guaranteed debt of $421 million coming due over the next 4 years. He needs cash flow from the government to service that debt, which is why he charged the Secret Service protecting him $765,000 for golf buggies, and a further $950,000 for their accommodation while he was playing golf at his Doral complex. That property has a $125 million debt falling due in 2023. If he loses, that cash flow dries up. Why else would he have fought so long and hard against the release of his tax returns? His creditors can pull the plug any time they want. In Australia, a bankrupt cannot hold public office. Maybe he is not bankrupt, but he looks awfully damn close to me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post canuckamuck Posted October 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2020 31 minutes ago, J Town said: You really have no idea what a president should be. The most successful presidents were those that, while gutting the economy and working for corporations, made the American populace feel good - and I'm referring to BOTH Dems and Reps. Bill Clinton won because women voted for him in droves, and when asked why they voted for him, the majority said "He's cute." Reagan was a movie star, Obama was one of the most prolific liars ever yet people felt a sense of security, believed that an adult was at the helm. 45 has been THE most divisive president in any of our lifetimes. His immature, arrogant, vindictive, irresponsible, racist, homophobic, sexist, narcissistic, untrustworthy, treasonous, contentious behavior has pitted people against each other. A president should care about all voters. Now who is delusional? The four presidents leading up to Trump were all psychopathic narcissists with a massive death toll, the war on terror killed millions and increased terror 6000% What a president should be is not what you will ever get, but at least Trump has pumped the brakes a little on war mongering. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted October 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2020 He received advice on how dangerous this disease is from arguably the world’s leading experts on disease - he chose to ignore that advice, worse still to promote doubt and disbelief of that advice amongst his followers.

Johnson certainly wasn't fine. People who know him say he still hasn't fully recovered his strength from his near death experience. As for Trump, exactly how do you know he's fine? Because people who are "fine" routinely go to the hospital. It's very early days in his infection. And he's overweight, unfit, and 74 years old. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
