What has Trump done to this country?

I never thought I could like a Republican, but I love these guys

tRUmptards have no interest in facts or science, they're all about feelings and magical beliefs.

Seems so here are some examples:
DT
"So when we have a lot of cases, I don't look at that as a bad thing. I look at that as, in a certain respect, as being a good thing because it means our testing is much better”


On killing coronavirus with ‘light inside the body’
“Suppose that we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it's ultraviolet or just very powerful light,” Trump said at a White House coronavirus briefing on 23 April, before continuing: “Supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way.”


"Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning? It sounds interesting to me, so we'll see. But the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That's pretty powerful."

Trump reported on 21 May that he “tested very positively” during his now-daily Covid-19 test. “In another sense, I tested positively toward negative, right? So no. I tested perfectly this morning, meaning I tested negative. But that's a way of saying it. Positively toward the negative.”

6th March
“Within a couple of days,” Trump announced, “[infections are] going to be down to close to zero. One day, it’s like a miracle. It will disappear.”

17 th March
“I've always known this is a real [sic], this is a pandemic. I've felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.”

18 th March
@realDonaldTrump
“I always treated the Chinese Virus very seriously, and have done a very good job from the beginning, including my very early decision to close the “borders” from China - against the wishes of almost all. Many lives were saved. The Fake News new narrative is disgraceful & false!”

and the first/last negative positive(?) who can forget
24th January
“We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine."

Give me an example

He already said Canada's per capita death rate from covid was higher, when the US figures are double the Canadian and expected to unfortunately skyrocket in the coming weeks. The steroidal anti clotting drugs are saving many lives and saving more from being maimed, or the toll would be much higher. Improved treatments and even convalescent plasma are having a small impact, but it's like a fart in the wind unless ya lock down.

 

[DIY-HP-LED]

Give me an example

Ya know James a good idea might be for Joe to assemble Obama's old pandemic task force and potential department heads and arrange for his campaign and volunteer contributions to pay salaries and hire staff early. Trump has had no transition meetings and will have none, Joe's team could start demanding briefings and offering expert public health advice. It would provide a home for the many experts who will populate the new government and pay salaries for a few months tops. If Trump fires Fauci, guess where he goes, on TV with public health advice and a new appointed Job with Joe, welcome aboard. Birks too, but she will have to write a book first and publish it about her dealings with Donald.

These clowns are in a much weaker position than a lot of people think, which is a good thing too, don't take anything for granted, even freedom.

You've seen parts of it, but here is the interview, if ya can stomach it, I can't for more than a few minutes at at time and must take frequent vomiting breaks. I've got a strong stomach too. They need to put a WARNING LABEL on such obscene content.

It's better to watch the comics on this one folks, comedians have a low tolerance for bullshit, which is why Donald is so easy to make fun of, their writers don't even need to work. Ya can't make this shit up.

I don't know why anybody would pay for weed when they can grow it legally.

That's what gardeners, like myself, say. However, there are a lot of people who don't get into it. I just love growing anything, especially from seed, so I can nurture it and watch it grow, since I don't have kids. I also just like playing in the dirt, like I did at five years old. So many varieties, so little time. My weakness is beer (not ale), but I can't pretend to match Anchor Steam, so I pay the guys who have perfected the art to do it for me. It's the same with wine. I live in wine country and there are those who can do it better than myself and cheaper, too. That is, if I were a wine person.

I need to get back to the junkyard for a visit, I've still got friends there so I might as well bring along some milk bones fur em.
I need a cool waterproof housing for a 30 watt COB, so maybe a bag or two for the boys, it's more transactional with humans, the dogs actually like ya.

I can just imagine what the door knockers for Trump are enduring, spreading covid through the community, are they wearing masks? What would you say if one came knocking at your door? After telling them to back off the stoop... Spray lysol disinfectant at them when ya open the door, put their head in a cloud while ya tell em to FUCK OFF (keep a can handy, works like mace)! I hope they are paid well, only an idiot would do it for free, only a fool would do it at all.

GOP desperation they want votes even if it kills the voters by spreading the virus, nobody wants these assholes at their door in the midst of a fucking catastrophic pandemic. Sucking citizens asses for Trump and enduring abuse, threats, clouds of Lysol in the face and a strip of hide ripped off their asses, they are stupider than Donald.

Trump’s campaign knocks on a million doors a week. Biden’s knocks on zero.

Trump's campaign knocks on a million doors a week. Biden's knocks on zero.
The diverging responses to Covid-19 could be a wild card in November — especially in close races up and down the ballot.

Donald Trump’s campaign says it knocked on over 1 million doors in the past week alone.
Joe Biden’s campaign says it knocked on zero.

The Republican and Democratic parties — from the presidential candidates on down — are taking polar opposite approaches to door-to-door canvassing this fall. The competing bets on the value of face-to-face campaigning during a pandemic has no modern precedent, making it a potential wild card in November, especially in close races.

Biden and the Democratic National Committee aren’t sending volunteers or staffers to talk with voters at home, and don’t anticipate doing anything more than dropping off literature unless the crisis abates. The campaign and the Democratic National Committee think they can compensate for the lack of in-person canvassing with phone calls, texts, new forms of digital organizing, and virtual meet-ups with voters.
“At first I was nervous, but our response rates on phone calls and texts are much higher and people are not necessarily wanting someone to go up to their door right now,” said Jenn Ridder, Biden’s national states director. “You get to throw a lot of the rule book out the window and try out new things.”
Trump and the Republican National Committee, in contrast, started deploying mask-wearing field staffers and volunteers to the streets in June. The GOP quickly ramped up and now claims more than a million doors a week despite Covid-19 surges across the country, including in swing states like Arizona.
Republicans say their door-knocking dominance could make a difference in November, since in-person conversations have long been considered the most effective type of voter contact.
“From now to Election Day, voters may only see one campaign at their doors,” Elliott Echols, the RNC's national field director. “If this were Barack Obama running, Democrats would want to be out there knocking doors. They don’t have enthusiasm or a strong field operation, so it is a convenient excuse. We can do this safely for President Trump and Republicans up and down the ballot.”

He Predicted a Trump Win in 2016. What's His Forecast For 2020? | NYT Opinion

Right now, polls say Joe Biden has a healthy lead over President Trump. But we’ve been here before (cue 2016), and the polls were, frankly, wrong. One man, however, was not. The historian Allan Lichtman was the lonely forecaster who predicted Mr. Trump’s victory in 2016 — and also prophesied the president would be impeached. That’s two for two. But Professor Lichtman’s record goes much deeper. In 1980, he developed a presidential prediction model that retrospectively accounted for 120 years of U.S. election history. Over the past four decades, his system has accurately called presidential victors, from Ronald Reagan in ’84 to, well, Mr. Trump in 2016. In the video Op-Ed above, Professor Lichtman walks us through his system, which identifies 13 “keys” to winning the White House. Each key is a binary statement: true or false. And if six or more keys are false, the party in the White House is on its way out. So what do the keys predict for 2020? To learn that, you’ll have to watch the video.

Before I watch that vid, I'll say right now. Trump is going to lose. Also, that win in 2016 was not due to his "keys".

But I'll watch the video now and comment back if I see something that is worthy.

But in a court filing this week, prosecutors with the district attorney’s office cited “public reports of possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization” and suggested that they were also investigating possible crimes involving bank and insurance fraud.

More for amusement than prophecy, the out come is even obvious to Trump, hence the extreme squirming, He is not very good at hiding his intentions, I can see why Barr bitched awhile back about how hard it was to do his job, yeah when Donald is an open book, surprises are hard to pull off and crimes hard to hide.

DOH !

Thousands of foreign workers who entered the U.S. on temporary work visas received $1,200 checks in error during the first round of stimulus payments, and many of them are spending the money in their home nations. One tax preparation firm told NPR that it has clients from 129 countries who mistakenly received stimulus checks, including Brazil, Canada, China, India, Nigeria and South Korea.


Government officials and tax experts say the mistake happened because many foreign workers, whether unintentionally or on purpose, file incorrect tax returns that make them appear to be U.S. residents. Some of them are now trying to amend their returns because they worry that having mistakenly received a stimulus check will jeopardize their visa status, green card application or ability to return to the U.S.


How much stimulus money was mistakenly sent to foreign workers living overseas is difficult to quantify. But Sprintax, which does U.S. tax preparation for nonresidents, did about 400 amended returns last year for people who mistakenly filed as U.S. residents, and so far this year it has done 5,000 — almost 5% of the total federal tax returns it filed last year, according to the company. If just 5% of last year's more than 700,000 student and seasonal workers with F-1 and J-1 visas received a stimulus check in error, that would total $43 million.


The "economic impact payments" sent erroneously to non-U.S. citizens are the latest in a series of mishaps involving coronavirus relief efforts, including nearly $1.4 billion in stimulus checks sent to dead Americans. As Congress debates another pandemic relief package, it's considering a second round of payments that would exclude the deceased, but its new bill does not address the problem of $1,200 checks having mistakenly gone to foreign workers in other countries.
