I caught (maybe) thirty-seconds of today’s bloviation and that only because I was looking for a program that was supposed to be on, but got preempted. He was claiming that he didn’t make any threats. By tomorrow, he’ll be claiming he never suggested any kind of enforced quarantine.
Someone’s got him on a tight leash, but they can’t keep him from barking.
I’m pleased to announce a vaccine has been developed. Mar-a-Lago will get it first, since that’s where the White House golf course is. Then, those who agree I should be president for life…
Our gracious host says: “It appears that his public health advisors shared with him modeling which suggests that a final death toll in the range of 100,000 to 200,000 is now the optimistic scenario with a death toll ranging to one or two million is possible without aggressive social distancing and lockdown strategies.”
The best I can do is imagine all that taking place in a scene for Black Adder. God, what a supreme farce/tragedy: the pandemic and Trump and his shitheads. This is MAGA.
At. this point in a national emergency, a real president’s poll numbers should be (and have in the past) be hovering near 90% approval.
Trump hasn’t garnered more than a 20% increase in approval ratings over .
Folks, our Russia-elected President is backing off because we are going to see this illegitimate imbecile launch two new wars before November to ensure re-election. Venezuela and Iran are his likely targets in my view.
Conservatives go to war to boost the economy and prop up the mercenaries-military-weapons complex. Right now Boeing stock is in the dumps and our military needs the wars every 3-5 years to test their weapons of mass destruction on real people.
Thus:
Black Adder, Black Adder, with many a cunning plan.
Black Adder, Black Adder, you horrid little man.
This time.
My 16 year old daughter was seriously miffed when Joe announced he would pick a woman VP - she said he sounded condescending and as if all the fluffy brained little women would then vote for him just because. Her suggestion was that he say he will pick the most qualified person and that he would equally consider all the very qualified women. Without of course mentioning folders.
I’m not seeing many alarmists, since the time lines from most scientists are proving to be too slow, and they are constantly having to change their predictions after measurements.
If those are the two sides you see, then is it possible you’re missing the consensus among the vast majority of climate scientists?
Binders.
Putting women in mere folders is not sufficiently restrictive.
Excellent book, I’ve read it. Quite long but we have the time now.

Yes, discobrat, this is a “complete sentence”
My bad, but then she’s 16 and a rebel.
Oops, and my bad!
Don’t mess with him. He issued a STRONG travel advisory. Today he extended said strong travel advisory until the end of April. If that doesn’t work he might go so far as a double top secret dog dare strong advisory. When that happens, whoo boy, look out!
Oh, that’s funny! Has that become “your song” now?
I remember being in Vietnam in 68-69, back in the rear, smoking pot with a couple black friends when this song came on the air. One guy said something like, “Look at this MF. He’s dying because someone left a fucking cake out in the rain and he doesn’t have the recipe to bake another one and we’re in MFing Vietnam in the monsoon. Shit, we need to write a song.”
