Bless you, sir.
Trump claims that the immigrant caravan coming up through Mexico is coming to vote for Democrats in the midterm election.
And how does he expect that to happen?
Please. Trumpies are already convinced that George Soros personally flew 3 million Central American illegals to the US in November of 2016 to vote for Hillary Clinton. A caravan or two already on the way (they have two whole weeks to get here!!1!) is nothing unbelievable when you’ve swallowed that.
Elon Musk is further ahead on the Hyperloop than you thought.
Trump said that “billions” of federal dollars have been spent on fighting fires in California, and it’s all due to the corruption in the state and the failure of the state to get rid of dead trees.
Truth: The federal government has spent about $1.4 billion the past two years, of which $900 million went to states, localities, and individuals to fight fires and repair damages caused by fires. $771 million was spent on fighting fires in national forests, whose maintenance and upkeep are the responsibility of the federal government.
The federal government spent a total of $2.9 billion fighting fires across the entire country in 2017. This pales in comparison to emergency funds spent on flooding and hurricane relief.
The federal government, through the Forest Service, controls more than 20 million acres of forest property, about one-fifth of the state’s total land mass. The state owns a mere 730,000 acres.
Oops. Trump said “hundreds of billions”.
I found this website today which keeps tally of Trump’s personal trips to play golf. It presently stands at 149 in two years, at an estimated cost to taxpayers of about $79,000,000.
Now you may say “Yeahbut, Obama played a lot of golf!” Yes he did, to the tune of 306 times in eight years. At Trump’s present rate, he will likely exceed that in his four year term. Additionally, most of Obama’s golfing was done at government facilities, whereas Trump’s golfing has been 100% at private clubs, mostly ones that he owns, and has visited them an average of once every 4.3 days.
If Democrats do well, Trump will try to nullify the election. Just wait.
Or he’ll send out his Proud Boy (and other far-right paramilitary groups) brownshirts to intimidate minorities at the polls.
Is that even a question?
Well, thinking about it, it probably is a question after all. There’s no national election I know of in the mid-terms. Wouldn’t some sort of lawsuit have to be filed for every single election contested at the state level?
Trump is the guy who thought he could wave his hand and poof Muslims no longer allowed to enter the country.
Or, in terms he understands bigly, eleventy-billion pieces of paper with the picture of some old guy he doesn’t recognize.
He may not be able to recognize the guys on our money, but he knows he was a better president than any of them!
DJT, 2020 Campaign: “Well, maybe not the $5 bill, he was pretty awesome, but I bet history’ll show I was a better president than the guy on the $10 bill!”
And he’ll still be wrong.
And certainly better than that loser on the three dollar bill!
Here’s what scares me. For any other president in history, one could easily tell the jokes about the president’s knowledge and ability are just that, jokes. With the salmon simpleton, there is no way to determine which japes are jokes and which attacks are accurate appraisals of the apricot ass.
I commend you for your diligence even as I pity you for your suffering.
Pardon me. Trump will try to nullify the elections. He can’t, legally, but that won’t shut his pie hole from saying it.
His… followers will of course believe him when he says that some democrat is preventing the ‘correct’ vote to be counted.
No, not Trump. Every separate state Party will go to court to either nullify votes or defend delegitimizing voters registrations, etc.
The Department of Health and Human Services wants to legally define gender as what you were born with, not what you identify as, or how you currently present.
I wonder if this is an attempted end run around the court ruling that they cant ban transgender people from the military, or just part of their total hateful outlook on the world.
