Members sivad40 Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/02/maga-world-blame-adulation-trump-covid-425624 Yet the base’s response mirrors the way Trump has instructed his followers to react to any pandemic-related news: downplay, craft optimistic storylines and accuse the Democrats and media of obfuscation and vitriol. It’s how the president has reacted to nearly every unwelcome pandemic-related development in recent months, whether it was early concerns over personal protective equipment and hospital space, or a death toll that recently surpassed 200,000. “He works 20 hours a day. I think he’ll be tough,” said Mike Lindell, CEO of MyPillow and a Trump surrogate flirting with the Minnesota governorship, in an interview. “He's a fighter. It'll be tough to keep him down.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 Why do people still expect anything out of Washington Post? Anyway, the toxic, deluded, dangerous publication run by out of touch trust fun brats, AKA Jacobin, has taken the mask fully off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 I'm glad that I've seen a lot of pushback, including among establishment types like Colin Jost on SNL, about the idea that we are supposed to act sad about these diagnoses. Honestly I don't give a [!@#$%^&*] what happens to any of them. Not a single one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) The SNL "cold open" sucked. Did the actors/writers even watch the debate? Jim Carrey portrayed Biden as senile, unable to answer any questions. The sketch dialogue writing made it sound like the *only* thing Biden did was hurl insults at Trump. Carrey played Biden as completely unable to control his emotions. And unable to stop himself from speaking against Trump. NONE of that happened during the debate! I'm so pissed that the media and comedians are still pushing the false narrative that Joe is senile and unable to speak coherently, and unable to control himself. Biden answered the debate questions intelligently, calmly, and compassionately. A few times Biden made some comments about Trump - but each time, it was more like calmly doing a verbal exasperated eyeroll. He made very few comments of that nature, and those comments weren't angry or emotionally out of control.

Members marceline Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 That's not going to happen. He's not a healthy man. He wasn't even before the virus and now he's on three different drugs including an experimental therapy. Even if they wanted to try the comeback narrative, it's obvious that these people are too incompetent to pull it off. Obviously these doctors are trying to placate Trump instead of heal him and if he's really directing his own medical treatment, he's as good as dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted October 4, 2020 Members Share Posted October 4, 2020 "I love the USA and I love what's happening"?? Oh lord. They're carting him around in an SUV. This is complete insanity. They took him back inside. It's clear they're barely able to restrain him and keep him on the premises. What a dangerous idiot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
