It really is amazing the keep referencing that, especially when you also throw in that because of the swine flu they created an entire team and playbook that the Trump admin lit on fire.

So I wonder how it goes that that stupid fuck, just pimped socialized medicine and a drug that is manufactured because of stem cell research? It's not cheap either. Oh, and the military will be in charge of drug distribution now? WTF? Obama was accused of trying to take over Texas by using WalMarts and they actually called up the NG to 'observe'? WTF would they have done if he'd told everyone he was going to use the military to make sure that 'government drugs' were sent to everyone? I mean, holy fucking hell.

I am strangely fascinated by the trials & tribulations of the Conway household.

I think Kellyanne deserves everything that is happening to her now. I also believe George abdicated his responsibility to try to create a "stable" environment for his daughter with his constant bickering about Trump. Daughter is paying for it and is lashing out.

Family needs professional help. I doubt it'll work out though and it may be best to just get divorced and let Claudia pick who she wants to live with.

So I watched the VP debate for about 2 minutes. Harris was saying "If you have preexisting conditions, they're coming for you. If you are under 26 and still with your parents, they're coming for you."...and Pence shook his head NO severely. And then when he was given a turn to speak, he said Obamacare was a failure.
...
...
...
So Mike...
Oh Mike...
You hate Obamacare...
Your party has been trying to overturn it for 10+ years...
Still with me Mike?
You want to shove through a Sup Court Justice so you can overturn it...
Your party and you....and your boss wants to end it.
And then....all of those these...Harris just said....are true...you coming for us....you are coming for all of us...
So why not give a witch's cackle and shriek "I'll get you my pretty! I'm coming for you all!!!!"
Because that IS in essence what you said.
Still there Mike?

Just announced second debate will be virtual. Trump is going to lose his damn mind.

Trump said no. But I mean, he NEEDS the debate. Biden doesn't.

Tuned in to Fox News for a few minutes. They are apoplectic about the change in venue and that the debate commission didn’t check with Trump first. Just goes to show they don’t understand what they can and can’t control. Never mind the fact it’s his fault they have to do it. His biggest gripe was they can cut you off. Lol.

The debate commission is clearly discriminating against Trump because of his preexisting health condition.

"didn't check with Trump first."

How cute.

If I'm Biden I jump at this chance and say, okay, we're done with debates. Trump needs them and Biden can't get anything else from them.

Sen. Mike Lee tweeting about the problems with democracy seems a bit ominous. It's an argument that I've seen a few times over the past week.

At this point it's a win-win for Biden. The Commission has said it's going forward no matter what... so it's either a 90 min town hall for Biden or Trump comes crawling back.

Biden should only say we are done if the Commission caves to Trump. Saying it's too dangerous to meet face to face considering Trump has COVID-19 and he has been very cavalier about wearing a mask to protect others.

Trump blaming Gold Star families for getting him infected should play well.

I expect the Debate Commission caves somehow, the way they have with enforcing COVID rules. I think Biden will get hurt if he bails after Trump comes back, so give Trump what he's asking for and make him live with the consequences.

Democracy isn’t the objective; liberty, peace, and prospefity are. We want the human condition to flourish. Rank democracy can thwart that.

I had prospefity once. It upset my stomach.

The Commission apparently made this decision after the Production Staff revolted (after Trump's positive result and Trump/Pence family members not wearing masks). So it is going to be harder for them to walk it back.

They've already held to the decision and said they'll have the debate without Trump.

They need to stick to their guns and call his bluff.

This is good. Kind of a mix of bailing and staying in, but making the only other debate potentially the worst format for Trump.

Calling out Trump for being weak is the BEST sort of statement to goad him to do it.

I still don't want Biden in a room with Trump or Trump's people or Trump's people's people. Even is Trump is no longer shedding virus like a Tijuana prostitute, what about all the people who caught it from him?

Don't have the details yet, but five people in MIchigan have been arrested in a plot to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer

Here's some details from the Detroit Free Press:
Feds: Militia group plotted to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer

I'm sure we will find out about how they were misunderstood, railroaded, and how there are good people on both sides soon enough, if it becomes a big enough story.

SI

But but but Antifa???

These guys' have horrible timing. Had they gotten caught earlier, they would have gotten a keynote speaking spot at the GOP convention.

The President of the United States went on national TV and pleaded for his attorney General to indict his political opponent 26 days before the election.

This is normal

The horrible thing is there is a possibility he would do it.

NEW YORK TIMES: "Some combination of Democrats and/or Republicans calls for jailing political opponents. Voters frustrated with both sides, each of whom is exactly equally to blame."

Why didn't they go after Matt Patricia instead? He's done more damage to the state and he has no defense.

:lol:

good people on both sides

"This week, President Donald Trump extolled the cutting-edge coronavirus treatments he received as “miracles coming down from God.” If that’s true, then God employs cell lines derived from human fetal tissue.

The emergency antibody that Trump received last week was developed with the use of a cell line originally derived from abortion tissue, according to Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, the company that developed the experimental drug."

Heh. Cocaine Mitch hasn't gone to the White House for 2+ months because of their lax COVID-19 policies.

"Democracy is talking itself to death. The people do not know what they want; they do not know what is the best for them. There is too much foolishness, too much lost motion. I have stopped the talk and the nonsense. I am a man of action. Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice it is a fallacy. You in America will see that some day."

Benito Mussolini, 1928

He forgot to add who it is that's infusing our democracy with its current rankness.

The complaints about democracy are another way to say we should get used to permanent minority rule. A lot of the GOP will gladly sacrifice democracy for the stability of an apartheid state.

Militia is a weird way to spell terrorists.

Who wants to tell him?

Trump guest hosting Rush Limbaugh Show tomorrow.

He is so ready to lose the election, claim it was fraud and that he should be the winner, leave, and start his full time media-shitposting career.

Doesn't this mean that anyone airing this episode has to give equal time to Biden?

Nope. That rule thrown out years ago in the twilight of Reagan's last administration.

Last minute cancellation of Pence trip from Arizona to Indiana to early vote. He is heading back to D.C. No explanation provided so far by White House.

Everyone in the Dem campaign better be in saran wrap for the next month

Mike Pence cancels appearance to vote Friday in Indianapolis





If they can be trusted, that's the official story.


There's also some chatter it's about the 25th amendment talk.


I'm thinking there's not enough smoke to think there's a fire yet, but with the administration who knows. And stuff seems to blow up quick.



SI

All this talk of trump being out of Walter Reed, where's the 3rd lady? Was she released too?

With today's announcement of numbers who filed for unemployment this month, the total numbers who have filed since March is a total of 63 million+ plus or more than voted for Trump in 2016.

I don't think I ever saw anything that said she went to Walter Reed, think I saw something say she was doing well?

Maybe he will win the electoral unemployment votes?

Heh
