This is not politics-speak. This is the truth.

Who is now lying his way through a “press conference” throwing false accusations against Biden, the press, and anyone else he can think of while boasting about all the "great things he’s (not) done.

It is fun to watch him unraveling in real time. He is spinning as fast as he can but it isn’t working for him. Poor, lonely Trump, floundering on the national stage.

I put it on for about two minutes. Which was about two minutes more than I can handle.

Trumps delusional diatribe right now is absolutely unhinged. This “press conference” is a trump train wreck of lies, character assassinations, and treason.

I think I caught that last two minutes. McCabe, Strozk, Page, Comey, Hillary, of course, all guilty of treason or something.

And poor misunderstood Mikey Flynn.

He’s a repulsive thing.

These so called Press Conferences should not be aired.
They are free air time for Trump and have nothing to do with the state of our Union.

Meh, they all basically function as commercials for Biden.

If anything, the trump campaign should request equal air-time so that his aides can “fix” all his lies and bullshit.

This works out to a mortality rate of about 0.1% for seasonal flu. I assume trump knew this, because he knew the other numbers. Then he said this:

He knew COVID was 5x to 50x more deadly than seasonal flu. And he did nothing.

As he consistently says, it was “the greatest political scandal in the history of our nation.” Pure. Projection. Honestly there are times when his brain is so obviously broken that you feel a kind of disgusted pity, like you can for Gollum.
