They say desperate men do desperate things.
President Trump is hardly desperate for attention. He seeks it out on a daily basis, because you can't go a day without a headline bearing his name for whatever.
I was prepared to finally cut him a break because he opposed the new stimulus package that has gone through Congress, simply because Joe & Jane Average ain't getting enough. The package calls for $600 per person for anyone making less than $75,000 a year, or half of what we got in the spring. Trump said no, make it $2,000, and, shockingly House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is on the bus for that. Trump can thank the GOP for trying to screw Joe & Jane Average again, but what he's really trying to do is make himself look good to the people in case he does decide to run again in 2024.
However, for every good thing he says or does, there's always two or three bad things.
Prior to his opposition to the stimulus package, Trump retweeted a video he saw on Twitter, which alleges that coronavirus was "invented" as a means of hurting his reelection chances.
SAY WHAT?!?
Now, I don't know who the moron is who posted the video, but we know that Trump admitted the severity of the virus in an interview with Bob Woodward all the way back in February, then downplayed it to avoid panicking the same people he's trying to give a financial mea culpa to in time for Christmas.
Farron Cousins explains:
That's the problem with these idiots denying the reality of the virus. They've listened to Trump work his shell game the last few years, and figure, yeah, he's an easy mark. Well, let's take into account his mental faculties aren't what they once were, if ever. What comes around, goes around. And around. And around.
Which is why the person behind the video----let's call him I. M. Stupid, since we don't know who he is----gets the Dunce Cap.
Trump's got a few of those to spare......
Thing is, if the Orange Idiot had shown some actual leadership and empathy and had he greenlit a second round of stimulus checks, he may very have gotten re- elected. But no, this chump can't act like a decent human being possessing a soul or a spine for even a minute. Proof positive that you can't fix stupid. January 20th can't come fast enough.
ReplyDeleteAnd he can't help but talk out of both sides of his mouth at the same time.....
