Don’t forget the rich assholes who think they’ve earned everything they have even though they’re still being spoon-fed by Mommy & Daddy. I have to deal with so many of them.
Gotta give them some credit for choosing their parents wisely.
Oh yes, you can be certain that anyone posting ‘Pull yourself up by your bootstraps’ BS, didn’t.
That headline is only coincidentally true. The chief of staff was trying his best to lie, and accidentally spoke the truth. By “we” of course, he was talking only about the Trump so-called admiistration. And the truth he was making sure to lie about is: “We are not going to try to control the pandemic.”
Sounds like the American version of fuerdai. Interesting note is that the students at my school are fuerdai. More than one has said to us teachers, “Of course my dad is a good communist; he’s rich”. Wow.
Another interesting thing is from the link:
The term has also seen limited use as a general label for anyone with rich parents and who enjoyed a privileged upbringing as a result. Non-Chinese figures, such as Fidel Castro and Donald Trump, have been described by Chinese media as fuerdai.
Everyone who wants to save the USA should jump all over this.
What does someone completely unfit for office and derelict in his duty answer, when asked about an appalling per-capita rate of infections and of deaths?
And everyone know there’s NOTHING that can be done about a CONTAGIOUS virus!!!1!!! Right??!??!?!?!?!
If the defense of this is ‘you have to see the context,’ here’s the context:
Absolutely 100% despicable. We can’t do anything because it’s CONTAGIOUS plus vote for us because Biden said he’ll lock-down the country [he didn’t] and also FREEDOM AND LIBERTY!!11!!!
Remove these clowns from office by an overwhelming vote; indict for criminal negligence in the performance of their duties; then sentence them to serve in the COVID wards.
I think I’d rather see Meadows and his boss doing community service as orderlies in the wards, rather than lolling about in a Club Fed prison, anyway.

transcript of the CNN interview: CNN.com - Transcripts
As has been said many, many times before, Trump isn’t the cause but rather the symptom. To put it another way, he just turned over the rock. Unfortunately, turning the rock back will do no good – once Trump has been sunk they’ll just flock around someone else.
These kids – most of 'em, anyway – are great role models for adults. They know a schoolyard bully when they see one.
George Conway believes in President Trump!
That article is hilarious! Too bad it’s paywalled… Here’s the beginning, but it goes on and on and leaves nothing out.
I believe, more than ever, in the president.
I believe Sleepy Joe Biden and that “monster” Kamala D. Harris would turn America into a “socialist hellhole,” and we’d all have “to speak Chinese.” I believe they “want to take out the cows” and “any form of animals.” There will be “no airplanes,” they’ll “rip down the Empire State Building,” and we’ll only have “little, tiny windows.”
I believe Sleepy Joe leads an “organized crime family.” I believe he and President Barack Obama committed “the greatest political crime in the history of our country,” and it will be “a very sad, sad situation” if the attorney general doesn’t indict them.
I believe Hunter Biden is a criminal, because someone got hold of his “laptop from hell,” and because of some guy named Bobulinski, whoever he is. I believe Fake News reporters are also criminals because they won’t report this.
…I believe Giuliani was just tucking in his shirt.
I believe the president doesn’t know much about QAnon other than “they like me very much,” and that it’s not “a bad thing” they are “very much against pedophilia.” I believe people should be able to make up their own minds whether Biden had Seal Team Six killed to cover up the faking of Osama bin Laden’s death.
I believe Harris is “nasty,” a “communist” and a “madwoman.” I believe we can’t have “a socialist president — especially a female socialist president.” I believe she has a funny name, and it’s possible “she doesn’t meet the requirements” for the vice presidency because her parents were born abroad.
…
You get the idea. Hilarious and bitter.
If you have the Pocket app, you might be able to read the whole thing here.
I’m at work now, of course, so I can’t do it now–and I’m not sure I have the chops for it anyway. I’d love to see that article edited as a pradoy of one of the traditional Christian creeds.
If the rock is firmly enough stomped back into the ground by an overwhelming electoral victory by the Democrats, it may be a while before anyone dares try to roll it over again.
Small steps. Right now I’m just hoping Biden carries on election night so Donnie Two-scoops’ clever plan to deny the late-count falls on its ass.
If the son is famous enough, they “let” you do it. I’m sure the letting is the same as consent to CFSG.
Amen!
If Biden comes out on top on election night, you know good and well that Individual 1 will say “Wait for all the votes to come in.”
So, maybe it’s not so bad to cook up a plan to kidnap the Governor of Michigan?
“I mean, we’ll have to see if it’s a problem. Right? People are entitled to say maybe it was a problem, maybe it wasn’t,” he added. “It was our people – my people, our people that helped her out. And then she blamed me for it. She blamed me and it was our people that helped her. I don’t get it. How did you put her there?”

I suppose this might have pissed someone off today:
In a propaganda lie worthy of North Korea or Bagdhad Bob, the white house lists the ending of the pandemic as one of the things that has been accomplished. Meanwhile, drooling Trump supporters believe the pandemic has been beaten.
"(CNN)The White House included ending the coronavirus pandemic on a list of the Trump administration’s science and technology accomplishments, despite nearly half a million Americans tested positive for Covid-19 in just the last week.
A White House Office of Science and Technology Policy news release made the claim in announcing a document highlighting the administration’s science and technology achievements over the past four years.
“Highlights include: ENDING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC,” the news release sent to reporters read. “From the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Administration has taken decisive actions to engage scientists and health professionals in academia, industry, and government to understand, treat, and defeat the disease.”
In DJT World eliminating conversation about something is the same as eliminating the thing. If we/I don’t talk about it then it ceases to exist. That’s certainly a much cheaper (not to mention instantaneous) way of dealing with COVID. No worries about a vaccine, or closing businesses, or shutting down schools, professional sports, churches, etc.
That’s his tried-and-true method for dealing with stuff he doesn’t like: laws, rape accusations, subpoenas, facts, reality-- ignore them and functionally, it’s the same as if they aren’t there anymore. And since he’s had COVID and recovered, it is now No Big Deal.
