At Last, Trump Admin Grants First Emergency Medicaid Change Due To COVID | Talking Points Memo

I understand the sentiment.

I would prefer to have him impoverished, ignored, and living in a trailer park.
For him, that is the definition of Hell on earth.

No he needs to be tried for these crimes really.

This has reached true crimes against humanity proportions.

That is quite a nice fantasy. I can see him sitting in a folding chair in an undershirt, stuffing his face, telling people that he was the president. Can’t afford racoon on head or spray tan.

I dunno. I got a jury duty summons yesterday for April 14. I suspect I won’t have to go, but, as of today, my county is planning to hold court until the middle of April.

And in other news: The Department of Justice filed a motion to drop all charges against two Russian shell companies accused of interfering in the 2016 presidential election to HELP Trump. Oh, and Vanity Fair reporting that Moron is now really pissed at Jared. Uh oh.

In the last 48 hours [Trump] has understood the magnitude of what’s going on,” a former West Wing official told me. As Trump processes the stakes facing the country—and his presidency—he’s also lashing out at advisers, whom he blames for the White House’s inept and flat-footed response. Sources say a principal target of his anger is Jared Kushner. “I have never heard so many people inside the White House openly discuss how pissed Trump is at Jared,” the former West Wing official said.

My neighbor works for the local court (working with at-risk children) and she’s still working every day.

I guess it still depends on where you are. I kind of leaped to a conclusion prematurely. Dallas is on lockdown - all our courts actually closed before they locked us down but if they hadn’t they would be now.

I’m all in for that, too.
But the trailer park idea just seems so karmically correct.

I’d rather the trailer park than some cushy federal pen. I wish Spandau was still in existence but I’m favor of maximum security for both of them plus the rest of the fucking criminals in the family, the administration and Congress.

Checking into a nursing home is about the last thing I’d want to do right now.

The people they’re victimizing the most are their own believers -the ones kissing toilet seats and congregating in bars and restaurants as if the virus is some sort of ineffectual liberal plant.

It’s bad enough they’re putting their lives at risk, but they’re also cavalierly putting everyone’s life at risk.

There was always going to be a reckoning for the anti-science views propagated by Fox News, the conservative establishment, and the Republican Party, and here we are. We won’t truly put this behind us until we have Democratic Party governance at the Federal level. And even then, the work will be long and hard.

From the link: [Joshua Kushner’s] Oscar Health lost $110 million in 2019, almost double the $57 million the company lost in 2018.

Can’t say if they’re happy or not, but they are stereotypes of his voters. His becoming an embodiment of the people pictured as electing him would be apropos.
That said, I’m really for maximum security – I think Spandau would’ve been wonderful, but the Germans didn’t keep it after Hess passed away. (Ed.)

But why do you want to punish people who live in trailer parks?
