Money over everything. That guy will be a future Senator. I see Trump and his cronies has flipped the script, by making him as the hero of the common man because he's want to re-open the country and protect their liberties.

https://www.gq.com/story/kanye-west-voting Kanye West informs the public on who he is voting for President.

Ever since Trump bragged about his ratings, I have just watched soundbites from other sources. Someone else another forum said by watching the pressers, he saw why Trump had his share of failures as a CEO. Trump loves to hear himself talk, has to be the smartest person in the room at all times, can only take credit for the positives and refuses to acknowledge what he did wrong and blames everybody but himself.

Does anybody here still actually watch Trump's pressers/neo-rallies in real time, or do you just hear the soundbites from various sources?

Why is this trending number one on Twitter??! Rogan is one on those [!@#$%^&*] perpetual frat boy types who will always support Trump because he's their father figure- God-King.

The handmaiden had to take the fall. https://www.axios.com/trish-regan-fox-business-coronavirus-e15cadac-72cd-4967-9324-5caeb58d8f08.html Fox Business announced Friday that the cable news network "parted ways" with anchor Trish Regan, after she called the novel coronavirus a "scam" on-air March 9. The big picture: Conservative commentators, including syndicated radio personality Rush Limbaugh and Fox News' Sean Hannity, have come under fire for minimizing the threat of COVID-19. "For two crucial weeks in late February and early March, powerful Fox hosts talked about the “real” story of the coronavirus: It was a Democratic- and media-led plot against President Donald J. Trump," The New York Times writes. Meanwhile, Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of Fox Corporation, was focused on the $440 million acquisition of streaming company Tubi. He failed to "to pry its most important voices away from their embrace of the president’s early line: that the virus was not a big threat in the United States," per the Times. Now, the network's leadership is trying to reel its hosts in to mitigate the spread of misinformation. "The decision by Fox Business to remove Ms. Regan’s show took some journalists and anchors at the network by surprise: Fox executives are accustomed to withstanding public pressure, and rarely make personnel moves that can be construed as validating criticisms of the network," the Times wrote. Context: Regan's show "Trish Regan Primetime" aired during Fox Business' 8 p.m. hour through March 13. The network initially said the show was on hiatus because of "the demands of the evolving pandemic crisis coverage," The Wall Street Journal writes. What they're saying: Fox Business, per a statement: “FOX Business has parted ways with Trish Regan - we thank her for her contributions to the network over the years and wish her continued success in her future endeavors. We will continue our reduced live primetime schedule for the foreseeable future in an effort to allocate staff resources to continuous breaking news coverage on the Coronavirus crisis.” Regan released a statement via the network saying, “I have enjoyed my time at FOX and now intend to focus on my family during these troubled times. I am grateful to my incredible team at FOX Business and for the many opportunities the network has provided me. I’m looking forward to this next chapter in my career.” What to watch: Fox Business replaced Regan’s time slot with general-interest programming.

Advice from America's favorite mayor.

James Woods and other right wing trolls are still downplaying the Coronavirus pandemic and Trump has been dog whistling it as mostly a blue state issue.

I'm still waiting for Mimi to eventually give in to Veronica.

The Republicans won't like that news coming out of Dallas and not because of people being having the coronavirus but because Trump has been dogwhistling the Corona as a blue state issue. Here in North Carolina, Governor Roy Cooper has issued an executive order that started 5:00 pm this evening, prohibiting all bars and restaurants from having dine in customers. There's only going to delivery and takeout for now. Plus he expanded unemployment benefits. Of course the Right on social media referred to him a tyrant (like they would have done Obama or Democratic president if they were in charge) and accused him of infringing on their 1st amendment rights and hurting businesses. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/coronavirus/article241245211.html

^Trump flies by the seat of his pants with his decisions anyway and everything he does is just to make it to the day. Those Gen Z and Millennial social influencers who were make fun about all of the cheap flights that they are able to take may have a few less places to take their trips. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-mexico/mexico-frets-about-u-s-coronavirus-spread-could-tighten-border-idUSKBN2102BY

I know you're probably being sarcastice but Trump doesn't give rat's ass if people die. He couldn't care less. He is concerned with one thing and one thing only: How he is viewed by his base. His ego is so large he thinks of this only in terms of how it will affect his popularity. He has no care for the human element in this. This is why he only speaks about this in terms of the Dow, because his entire presidency hinges on people believing he has created this mega-economy.

Why are de Blasio and Reich all in with Bernie? @DRW50 I understand why a "revolutionary" like Shaun King who wants to burn down the system is with Bernie, but this these guys are seasoned politicians who should know better.

I have no problems with Gen X coming through for Biden. It's just amazing to see the Bernie Bros lash out the way they are doing. Biden has taken the lead in Texas.

Well, there are white conservatives who pretend to be black and they infiltrate tdhe political threads in black forums like the coli and Lipstick Alley. There are some who are black and they do resent older black voters for being part of the "establishment" I will beat there will be numerous threads on both of these forums tomorrow talking about how low energy, old, and senile Biden is to them. Another forum I'm a member of is also giving to Gen X credit for Biden's Super Tuesday results. "Speaking as a Gen Xer. We just want to friggin beat Trump and gain seats in the house and senate. Gen X = always gonna be practical" https://247sports.com/college/north-carolina/board/106149/Contents/super-tuesday-results-144552406/?page=2

The Bernie Bros and some neoliberal blacks are lashing out against Boomers and southern blacks for Biden winning tonight "Biden is just not good, very backwards on a lot of policies and his response to millennials was to work harder. If voting for a guy who won’t tweet in the morning is the democratic goal then they succeeded. There were plenty of better candidate" "Gotta wonder what "southern values" he's talking about. The truth is that most older black voters, particularly in the south vote establishment on autopilot. They dont know the issues. They're easily duped. And they're deeply closed minded. Baby boomers (both black and white) are fukking this country's future. And the youth are so disengaged that they cannot bother get off their lazy asses and vote. In 10 or 20 years they'll realize the 2020 election (and politics in general) were a matter of life and death. We had the option to vote in a progressive two times and blew it. It isn't just another 4 years of Trump that's at stake here. Its our environmental crisis. Its the climate crisis. Its the rise of right wing populism. Its the rise of wealth inequality. What many people fail to realize is that Bernie is the compromise. He is the middle ground. Another 4 years of Trump or a centrist maintaining the status quo will inevitably have grave consequences on ALL the aforementioned issue" "No matter how many times y'all wanna try and erase us from existence, we're not going away. There are millions of black people like myself who love and support Bernie." But keep pretending black Bernie supporters don't exist. Pretend like his national co-chair and press secretary aren't black while y'all at it." "I agree but we need to seriously address the political ignorance of our parents and grand parents. There is just no excuse for a man like Biden to get the majority of our votes for just being present." https://www.thecoli.com/threads/official-2020-super-tuesday-primary-thread-3-3-2020.763434/page-79

I had to laugh at this tweet.

The media ignoring her comments about Trump's state of mind.

Mitt is already getting the McCain treatment by some of us on the left. They are saying that it took guts to do that, he would've been a good president, he's one of the last true members of the "real" GOP, etc. Donald and Don Jr. have already went on the offensive on Mitt. Here's Trump trolling but I believe he's seriously about installing his children as next in line for the presidency.

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/02/trump-plots-revenge-on-bolton-impeachment-enemies With Senate Republicans on track to acquit Donald Trump on Wednesday, Washington is bracing for what an unshackled Trump does next. Republicans briefed on Trump’s thinking believe that the president is out for revenge against his adversaries. “It’s payback time,” a prominent Republican told me last week. “He has an enemies list that is growing by the day,” another source said. Names that came up in my conversations with Republicans included Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler, Mitt Romney, and John Bolton. “Trump’s playbook is simple: go after people who crossed him during impeachment.”

The right leaning Hill with this op-ed blaming the House on why impeachment failed. https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/481015-how-the-house-lost-the-witness-battle-along-with-impeachment

I haven't what much of the impeachment hearings, but I see that my local Fox channel isn't showing the hearings.

It probably would have crashed or be worse off than it is if the Federal Reserve wasn't pumping Wall Street to prop it up. I wascan imagine what Fox News and the conservative talk radio would be saying if Obama was propping up the economy by the pumping into Wall Street. https://wallstreetonparade.com/2020/01/federal-reserve-admits-it-pumped-more-than-6-trillion-to-wall-street-in-recent-six-week-period/
