    They want the world to be as poor, dumb and broke as they are, or they want the world to work for their needs.......and are selfish ****wits.

    That is why I think it would be best if he just up and croaked. If he were assassinated, I think they would probably riot as some sort of democratic conspiracy, so it would be best if he just died choking on a cheeseburger or of natural causes.

    I am inciting hate? Me? I already HATE the guy, everyone else can have their own opinion, there is no call to action in wishing he die. It is just a thought and a prayer.

    Pffft, I am just hitting back with the same level of vitriol as your dear leader. So, don't come snowflaking your ass to me when folks start hitting back at your Captain thin skin.

    Actually I don’t care if you feel that way about him or anyone else for that matter. I was just drumming up some good ole #fakeoutrage

    You did seem quite stirred up though. Has this quarantine gotten to you? Vote hard!

    When Governors tape conversations with the president of the United States because they know he will lie about what's said...

    Actually, I got furloughed in week 1, but had an offer on the table for a better gig, that I took and decided to take all of April off - have been enjoying it....though my biological clock is screwed, going to bed at 2am and getting up around 10....

    And, I get to hate on the ****WIT in charge, and still wonder why anyone can support such a loser, and still have any shred of integrity. I have concluded that anyone that supports him doesn't have any real honor - they are faking it.

    Trump said "We have a very active flu season, more active than most. It’s looking like it’s heading to 50,000 or more deaths — deaths, not cases. 50,000 deaths — which is, that’s a lot. And you look at automobile accidents, which are far greater than any numbers we’re talking about. That doesn’t mean we’re going to tell everybody no more driving of cars. So we have to do things to get our country open.”

    He blatantly distorts the facts to push a false reality upon the people. That's makes him dangerous. He puts people in harm's way to get what he wants.

    You don't try to minimize the serious of spreading Coronavirus to comparing stopping people from driving. How are numbers from car accident fatalities anywhere close? 42,308 people died from Coronavirus in the past month. 38,000 people died in car fatalities last year. You see, he leaves out fatalities, and just says, "And you look at automobile accidents, which are far greater than any numbers we’re talking about". That's not the kind of BS comparison attempt to be using in an attempt to downgrading the significance of this virus.

    When he says stuff like "That doesn’t mean we’re going to tell everybody no more driving of cars. So we have to do things to get our country open” he is showing incompetency.

    Does he not realize that safety measures reduce risk? You don't have to stop people driving to reduce fatalities. You put laws in place for prevention. Most fatalities are caused by alcohol/drug impaired drivers, followed by speeding and wreckless driving (texting, distracted driving, etc..). We can't eliminate stupid, but we try. On that note, get out and vote this year so we can eliminate stupid.

    This is why trump can get away from lying constantly to the American people. His "base" will accept his versions as truthful, no matter how you (or scientists, medical professionals, legal experts, intelligence experts, etc) presents the facts. Its rather pointless to discuss further with them... simply present the facts and move on.

    trump rolls out yet another lie with no basis of fact...




    And no... only 84%of republicans approve of his handling, a number that is declining. More important, only 44% of Independints and that number is declining. Whats also important... are the number of people identifying themselves as republicans declining? And what percent of trump supporters identify as a trump supporter and not as republicans?

    How on Earth can anyone truly believe his BS anymore? I mean seriously. Lie after lie after lie after lie. The top 3 feats he has done better than any other President in history are lie, brag about himself, and call people names.

    Because... they want to believe. Or, they "have to" believe. Because otherwise they would have to admit they were wrong... that they supported and voted for the wrong person. That what people said about him (liar, crook, incompetent) was correct and they still voted for him. They may point to judges or tax cut... but any republican would have done that. No... at this point, they are fully invested in him. In fact, surveys show more self-identify as "trump supporter" than "republicans". Which I guess is the point of the Lincoln Project and all the conservatives and republicans that speak out against him or actively oppose him.

    Somehow, I always thought you were running your own business (gaming?).

    I still own that too, but I have others working for me in it...I am working in 2 startups right now helping others for a piece of the pie, and I own the gaming company too.

    Actually have a few incomes right now....pretty cool stuff going on in the last couple of years - hope the moron in the Whitehouse doesn't **** it up too bad before we get him out arrest him and try him for treason.
