If you work for Trump and *can't* spin that ****, then yes, you should be fired. SHS still has a job for a reason.
Trump's denial of the Puerto Rico death toll is a new low (although other hurricane death tolls could be adjusted likewise; for example, in a New York Times article I read last week, a very sick lady who died during Harvey because her husband could not get her to a hospital, and first responders could not reach her, was not counted in our official toll because she didn't drown / get crushed by a tree / etc). I know Trump's m.o. is to never admit wrong or a fault and to blame your opponents for everything, but, again, a new low.
But hey, corprations got big tax cuts and regulations removed, some people got small tax cuts and bonuses, and right wing judges...
[Randolph Duke] I bet you think I forgot your Christmas bonus this year. There you are. [Servant] Five dollars. (pause) Maybe I'll go to the movies. (long pause) By myself. [Mortimer Duke] (not detecting the sarcasm) Half of that is from me. [Servant] Thank you, Mr Mortimer. (walks away, muttering sotto voce) M***********.
Mr. trump is mentally ill. The Atlantic coast is bracing for a powerful hurricane, and trump is tweeting lies, nonsense, and damn near unintelligible garbage for his "base" to lap up regarding Puerto Rico and the huge hurricane that devastated the island. He keep babbling lies about the horror Puerto Rico went through and the death toll from the storm. A death toll anyone who has read and watched the news from multiple sources and about the event shouldn't be surprised by at all. He should be impeached for mental instability, mental incompetence, and being a danger to the republic. In my humble opinion. Instead of making speeches about what is happening now as I type this, he continues to fixate on an event in the near past that made him look foolish due to his bizarre reaction to it. Mr. trump cannot abide anything that he thinks makes him look the fool. That's who's in the Oval Office. God, if you exist, help us all.
I still cannot believe you guys let him win your election.... I just cannot understand how you can vote for someone why is clearly an narcissistic, pathological liar, who is also an idiot. If there is ever any dictator who want to prove that democracy doesn’t work they just have to point to Trump (which I believe China already is doing). Of course you can say, well he did not win the popular vote, so the majority of Americans did not want him. But that just leads to the discussion why the popular vote is not how you elect a president, why are the votes of some more important than others. So either the system is broken or many of the people, or maybe both. I am glad that the whole world sees how bad it is to actually vote for your populist idiot. Both Trump and the brexit vote are really terrible for their country, and hopefully it will act as a deterrent for the rest of the world. That all being said I really feel for the Americans who do have a brain and did not vote for Trump and are just as disgusted by what is happening in the US.
Pardon my french, but **** you. We're trying to fix it. Yall fix your own insane right-wing parties. I hear Italy is fun these days.
