Sounds like stupidity on continuous reboot. I'd rather have a real job.

Trump had zero to do with the Floyd disaster. Get your TDS looked at.
The morning after Trump’s Tiennamen Square moment
After using teargas and rubber bullets to clear the streets of peaceful protesters in front of the White House to make a path for a pathetic photo op he didn’t even get right,Trump took a deeply disgusting (and, it should probably go without saying by now, woefully premature) victory lap when he took to Twitter to brag about “domination” of the DC streets earlier this morning.
At the same time, via CNN’s live updates page, it sure as hell looks like the White House has dedicated a lot of resources to cowering in place:
The US Secret Service has closed several streets surrounding the White House to any vehicular traffic — another sign of the increased security in the area.
Late last night CNN reported seeing 8-foot tall metal fencing being erected around Lafayette Park. They look like the almost impenetrable fencing put up during high-level security events like political conventions and inaugurations.
Here’s the traffic alert that was sent out today:
This is an important message from the District of Columbia AlertDC system.
The United States Secret Service (USSS) reports the following roadways will be closed to vehicular traffic until further notice.
Constitution Avenue NW, between 15th and 17th Street
17th Street NW, between Constitution Avenue and H Street
15th Street NW, between Constitution Avenue and H Street
H Street NW, between 15th Street and 17th Street
I dunno, champ, maybe if actually listened to people for once in your life and didn’t turn your guns on them, you wouldn’t have to hide from them.
Better get your TDS checked.
Racism is the currency of Trump/GOP.

Go back to Bejing
The corporate capitalist agenda will rationalize your death and Republicans making 20K will rejoice.
The 'death panels' are here.
Speak for yourself. Must suck to be you
The stinging truth. Everything Trump touches dies. #ETTD

This is fake news. Whoever posted it should go back to Bejing.
No one believes Trump or Fauci is a moron. Name calling displays your immaturity or your TDS.
Aweful
No one is talking about eliminating pre-existing conditions coverage. I stopped listening after that because he doesn't care about truth. He needs to stay gone. He adds no value.
MY PRESIDENT. [X]
You made poor choices girlfriend. Own it. Time to get to work and pay it off. Life is not fair. Welcome to adulthood.
You need to get your TDS checked.
Actually you are the results of runaway TDS. Go get treated so you can be rational again. Peace.

Trump is right. That reporter's "question" added no value. The question was designed to sensationalize and poke at emotions. The reporter's wallowing in leftist hate is obscene.
So. Last week.
(Strap in, this is gonna be a long one, at least by my standards.)
People who follow this account may have noticed that I skipped this particular story when it was new at the end of last week. First of all, let’s recognize that if you’re getting all your news from sites like Tumblr at this point, you’re in deep, deep trouble. Or maybe you have more important things to worry about than a random voice in the darkness who doesn’t always show up when you need him. However, we should still mark this place in history.
In case you’re catching this downstream from the source, the sad undertone of a lot of what I do here is that I don’t take any delight in watching the US Presidency get debased in every possible way. I wanted him to prove my worst fears wrong, and every day in almost every way he not only lives down to those fears but outstrips them in new and horrifying ways.
So when he held a press conference which, for the first time since the pandemic declaration, had at least one toe in reality, I exhaled for the first time since 2016. Everybody needs to be on the same page to dial back the severity of the spread to avoid the type of systemic meltdown that’s happening in Italy, and if this is what it takes to make that happen. Welcome aboard. Pull up a chair…within social distancing standards.
That was the optimistic me, a week ago today. Oh what a fool.
First of all, he gave himself a ten out of ten for his “perfect” response to this crisis from the beginning, which oh my god, not even the tiniest bit close. Then, and more troubling, he started naming specific drugs which he claimed were being tested against the coronavirus, claims which were overly optimistic at best, pulled straight out of his ass at the worst, claims Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who was on the same stage as Trump was rattling this shit off, tried to shut down almost immediately.
And then, as it always happens, Trump lost his shit. Per NBC News:
NBC News’ Peter Alexander, a White House correspondent and a weekend anchor of “TODAY,” then asked Trump whether his “positive spin” regarding the potential treatments was giving Americans false hope.
“Is it possible that your impulse to put a positive spin on things may be giving Americans a false sense of hope?” Alexander asked.
“No, I don’t think so,” Trump replied.
“It may work, it may not work, Trump said. “I feel good about. That’s all it is, it’s a feeling.”
Alexander responded by asking Trump to talk directly to Americans who are scared by the pandemic, which triggered the president to reply with an insult.
“What do you say to Americans who are scared though? I guess, nearly 200 dead, 14,000 who are sick, millions, as you witnessed, who are scared right now,” Alexander asked. “What do you say to Americans who are watching you right now who are scared?”
“I say that you’re a terrible reporter,” Trump said. “That’s what I say. I think that’s a very nasty question.”
“The American people are looking for answers and they’re looking for hope, and you’re doing sensationalism,” Trump said.
Me again: I have several problems with this, but the main one is the usual one. In his default setting, Trump is such a flaming incompetent that he couldn’t recognize the opportunity at the core of all this:
“What do you say to Americans who are watching you right now who are scared?”
Instead of coming up with words that would do just that–you know, like every other president in the history of the Republic except this one has managed to do on a regular basis–his response was to throw yet another poor-pifitul-me tantrum in front of the American people. And the saddest part is that it’s such a go-to response for this president that under normal circumstances it would blend into the background.
Don’t believe me? Ask the man himself:
“I’m sure there are plenty of baseball fans watching out there now. In TV terms, we call this a softball,” Alexander said. “I was trying to provide the president an opportunity to reassure the millions of Americans, members of my own family and my neighbors and my community and plenty of people sitting at home right now. This was his opportunity to do that, to provide a sort of positive or uplifting message.”
And Trump didn’t, and probably didn’t even recognize what was being handed to him on a silver platter. Absolutely amazing.
Of course, there were other consequences to what he was up to last week. Referring back to the untested drugs that he was pitching as a miracle cure against the advice of the actual doctors in the room, Trump added, “It may work, it may not work. I feel good about it. It’s just a feeling. I’m a smart guy … We have nothing to lose. You know the expression, ‘What the hell do you have to lose?’”
There’s an answer to that. Hydroxychloroquine, one of the drugs Trump named as part of his unfounded promise of a miracle cure, is used to treat lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Thanks to President Empty Promises, perfectly healthy people have begun buying up and hoarding the drug, and as a result there has been a severe shortage for people who desperately need it. ProPublica: “If they were required to take stronger drugs to suppress their immune systems, it could render them susceptible to more serious consequences should they get COVID-19.“
Anna Valdez, lupus victim, has the answer: “I was told today that my prescription cannot be filled because the suppliers are completely out. Now I do not have the meds I actually need for an incurable disease I actually have.“
A crisis like this is a leadership test. This has been the story of how Donald John Trump failed, and continues to fail.

Go back to China. No Americans think that.
The cruelty and suffering inherent in 'on your own' Republican policies. They don't care. Never did.
This is Republican dereliction of duty. Manifest betrayal. The Trump White House has no plan.
