Twitter locks down Dumb Donald II's account for 12 hours. It should bounce him for good (and his dad, too)

In another example of political desperation, President Donald Trump and his son, Dumb Donald II, retweeted a video that made false claims about alleged cures for coronavirus, the same "cures" that the President touted back in the spring. Said video has since been booted by YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, et al, and in Twitter's case, they locked Dumb Donald II's account for 12 hours for spreading misinformation.



"WAAAAHHH!! We have the right to post this information! This stuff works!"

No, it doesn't, Mr. President. There's not enough scientific evidence to support your claims, if any at all. More and more people in this country are waking up to the fact that you're not really interested in doing anything to stop the virus.

Twitter's decision on Monday should be just the first step toward permanently banning Dumb Donald I & II for abusing their privileges on the site.

CNN's Chris Cuomo offered this assessment on Monday regarding the virus and Trump:



Anderson Cooper weighed in on Trump's claims of developing a "powerful" strategy:



And, yeah, a round of golf whilst shirking responsibility surprises no one.

Also, we reported yesterday that Trump had cancelled a scheduled appearance at Yankee Stadium next month to throw out the first pitch of a game between the Bronx Bombers and Boston.

Turns out, per the New York Times, that Trump, to no one's surprise, except for the Yankees, was lying. They never officially scheduled the appearance, despite Trump's claims of brokering the deal with Yankee president Randy Levine, a personal friend. No, what really happened was that Trump was upset with Dr. Anthony Fauci and his impersonation of 50 Cent on the mound at Nationals Park on Thursday with a season opening first pitch before the Yanks downed Washington, and thus fabricated the story that he would be in the Bronx in August.

Even Pecos Bill wouldn't be caught dead telling a tall tale like that.
