His talent/luck has saved lives? You would have better luck not getting sick after eating from a dumpster.

Trump cannot undo the moment yesterday when the lady asked him a question that, basically, exposed not only his unfitness for office but (2) his mental illness and (3) his cowardice (when he left the mike).

Hence this story.

He needs to check in order to coordinate his current lying with his past lying.

The campaign ads write themselves… Just as we’re breaching the top end of his cooked-book algorithm (guess covid doesn’t read the papers and realize that when the politicians ordered the books cooked it was supposed to adhere to the new sunshiny 60K and not the 100-200K estimates everyone else had), he’s bragging about how good he’s done…

And his supporters believe every word of it. I just can’t watch this guy ever and know how many people still support him. What will it take?

You’re getting your answer. Absolutely nothing will sway them. He could round people up in cattle cars and send them to concentration camps to be slaughtered, and his nazi base would cheer him on the whole time.

Let †Я☭mp keep talking… more and more fuel for the pyre that he will be burned on. Every day he shows more and more how mentally unstable he is, and the advertisements keep getting better and better:
