    Boy is he a piece of work. The ever-changing stories are exhausting. He truly needs to go. All he is focused on is the blame game, his image, and rallying his Trumpateers. He turns a blind eye to the truth of our current situation once again, and lies beyond belief. He displays no remorse or regrets, and has NEVER taken responsibility for his mistakes. He is a dangerous man to be in charge of our Country right now.

    trump, triggered not by guilt, remorse, or sadness about the ever growing number of the pandemic deaths, but by ads, run by a group lead by the husband of his campaign adviser...

    His tweets say it all. He is obsessed with putting others down and bragging about how great he is. What's concerning is the lack of tweets concerning what is going on across America right now.

    He doesn't tweet about the people dying, the violence and hate stirring up, the Nazi signs and Confederate flags by racists at the demonstrations, the disregard for following guidelines of social distancing as states ease restrictions, or the failure of states reopening to follow the 14 day decline rules. He doesn't tweet about the vulnerable nurses, doctors, and essential workers still not getting what they need to safely do their job. He doesn't tweet about the volunteers and charities stepping up to privately raise money and gather some of those supplies. He doesn't tweet about the crisis at nursing homes, who aren't doing enough to protect and care for the vulnerable. I could go on and on.

    What he does tweet about is all about himself, his image, the fake press, his great ratings, and the great job he is doing. It's all political rally pumping words to put down Democrats and pump up Republicans. When party lines take presidency over health and safety the people are not one, but divided. He has divided our Nation at every turn, into red and blue states, when it comes to handling this pandemic. He is showing his true colors every day with his own words, and lack of.

    There has never been a more corrupt, dishonest, incompetent, divisive president ever...

    Trump says 'bailouts' unfair to GOP since states needing aid 'run by Democrats in every case'

    This man's blood is on trump's hands. A security guard, merely telling someone that they couldn't enter a Family Dollar store without a mask. Members of the family of the person asked to wear a mask then proceeded to walk in and murder the security guard. Over a mask!

    trump is destroying our country. Not only is he disrupting the fight against the virus with his utter lack of leadership and incoherent response, he's encouraging violence from a small minority that believe every tweet from the b*stard. Madness! Story below:

    Three family members charged in shooting death of security guard who told a customer to put on a face mask

    By Alec Snyder, Mirna Alsharif and Theresa Waldrop, CNN
    Updated 9:23 AM ET, Tue May 5, 2020

    (CNN)Three family members have been charged in the killing of a security guard who told a customer at a Michigan Family Dollar store to wear a state-mandated face mask, officials said on Monday.

    Calvin Munerlyn, 43, died at a Flint hospital after he was shot in the head Friday, said Michigan State Police Lt. David Kaiser.

    Ramonyea Travon Bishop, 23, Larry Edward Teague, 44, and Sharmel Lashe Teague, 45, have been charged with first-degree premeditated murder, along with other charges, the Genesee County Prosecutor's Office said in a statement on Monday. Sharmel and Larry Teague are married, and Bishop is Sharmel's son, according to the prosecutor's office.


    "From all indications, Mr. Munerlyn was simply doing his job in upholding the Governor's Executive Order related to the COVID-19 pandemic for the safety of store employees and customers," Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton said in the statement.

    Munerlyn got into a verbal altercation with Sharmel Teague after telling Teague's daughter she needed a mask, according to the prosecutor's office. Surveillance video confirms the incident, Leyton said.

    Sharmel Teague's daughter left the store, but "Teague began yelling at Munerlyn who then told her to leave the store and instructed a cashier not to serve her," the prosecutor's office said.

    Under an executive order from Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, all retail employees and customers have to wear a mask.

    Footage also shows that immediately after the altercation, the woman left in an SUV. But about 20 minutes later, the SUV returned.

    Two men -- identified as Bishop and Larry Teague -- entered the store, according to the statement. One of them yelled at Munerlyn about disrespecting his wife, Leyton said. The other man, later identified as Bishop, then allegedly shot the security guard, the statement said.

    "This is senseless. Over a mask. Over a mask?" Munerlyn's cousin, Tina James, told CNN affiliate WJRT. "This is not the way to do things right now. We need to come together."

    Police are looking for Larry Teague and Bishop, the prosecutor's office said. Sharmel Teague is in custody and awaiting arraignment on her charges in 67th District Court.

    In addition to the murder charge, Bishop also faces charges of felony firearm and carrying a concealed weapon, the prosecutor's office said.

    Larry Teague also faces two felony firearm-related charges, one charge of a felon in possession of a firearm, one charge of carrying a concealed weapon, and one of violating the governor's executive order, according to the prosecutor's office.

    Sharmel Teague also faces a felony firearm charge, the statement said. She doesn't have a lawyer yet, John Potbury, deputy chief assistant prosecutor of Genesee County, told CNN.

    Randy Guiler, Dollar Tree's vice president of investor relations, said the company is "aware of the tragic incident."

    "We will continue to cooperate fully with local authorities on their investigation," Guiler said in a statement to CNN. "As always, we are committed to ensuring a safe environment for our associates and customers. Out of respect for the family's privacy, we are not commenting further at this time."

    trump obviously doesn't care about the American's that live in many of the states currently being devastated by the global pandemic. Instead, he is exploiting the crisis to get hyperpartisan political points. But as they say, never let a crisis go to waste...



    And, as usually, he is lying, since many of the states he is complaining about actually subsidize the so-called "red states"...

    Whistleblower complaint? Check. Ignoring scientific and medical experts? Check. Cronies getting awarded contracts based on connections? Check.

    Ousted HHS official files whistleblower complaint on coronavirus response
    Dr. Rick Bright's complaint says Health and Human Services leadership was slow to react and pushed contracts "based on political connections."
