All Things Trump: Is it over yet?

An article in today's Age:

Today we see that the US is such a diminished power that it cannot protect its people or its leader from a pandemic. It suffers the third-highest rate of deaths per capita of any developed nation, after only Belgium and Spain.

With 627 dead people per million population, the US has performed even worse than let-it-rip Sweden, with 583 deaths per million.

America is not in the same universe as successful countries like Germany with 115 deaths per million, Australia with 35 or Taiwan – the most impressive of any credible reporting country – with just 0.3 deaths per million.

The US, once the global benchmark of modernity and progress, has descended to the point at which a senior Australian federal government official told me that it was a mistake to study the US election in the same framework as an Australian election, saying: "Look at the US as if you are looking at a Third World country with deepening social and economic inequality overlaid by diminishing trust in institutions, and where the institutions are increasingly politicised."

That, and no chaos with postal votes...

With Trump's Toady in charge of the Postal Service, this is guaranteed.
Better that people go out and vote in person.

I'm hoping that he proves how fit he is by jogging round the White House taking the stairs two at a time. Looks like Eric missed his chance to shine. Guess he'll be back to banging his pots in the basement again...

Maybe it IS Eric, dressed in a Fat Suit and made up to look like Trump

Thanks to Trump and Covid there are nowhere enough polling stations. You would end up with third world situations; waiting for hours especially in black and Hispanic areas.

Want to know how Trump is doing? Ask Putin or QAnon

But given the White House’s obfuscation on the president’s coronavirus diagnosis, it would not be unreasonable to suggest “that foreign governments like Russia and China with active and effective collection programs would have better info” on Trump’s medical condition than even the American public, said Hall.

Foreign intelligence shops would likely have sources with access to what White House insiders are hearing about the president’s treatment — and intelligence about whether staffers are being sloppier than usual with communications security given the crisis, said former acting CIA director John McLaughlin.

“Given that foreign intelligence services, particularly hostile ones, have no higher priority than understanding events in a president’s inner circle, it’s reasonable to assume that they have sources somewhere seeking access to reliable information on his diagnosis,” said McLaughlin. “Hard to say whether this would amount to something more transparent than the American public is getting, but they would certainly try to factor out the spin."

Politico article, like 99% of the press, uses word translator to mean interpreter:

Pence interprets Trump.

Mary Trump straight up calls her uncle a mass murderer. I guess even a Trump can get Trump Derangement Syndrome.

She's just another NPC, man. 'Orange man bad,' blah blah.

Trump only got COVID because people love him:
CNN
15. "I'm -- I'm glad because I'm the leader. And I can't be like Biden where I hang out in a basement every day. Sure, he -- if I wanted to hang out in a basement, I wouldn't catch it, but I meet a lot of people and I have to."
The idea that only real leaders catch a life-threatening illness is, well, wow.
16. "Sometimes I'd be with -- in groups of -- for instance Gold Star families. I met with Gold Star families. I didn't want to cancel that. But they all came in and they all talked about their son and daughter and father."
In which the President of the United States suggests, with zero proof, that he contracted the coronavirus by meeting with Gold Star families. Very normal stuff!
17. "They want to hug me and they want to kiss me. And they do. And frankly, I'm not telling them to back up. I'm not doing it. But I did say it's like -- it's obviously dangerous. It's a dangerous thing I guess if you go by the Covid thing."
"The Covid thing."
18. "I figured that you probably -- that probably at some point I'd catch it and I'll get better. That's what happened. I've caught it. I could've been out of the hospital in one day."
21. "Unless Bill Barr indicts these people for crimes, the greatest political crime in the history of our country, then we're going to get little satisfaction unless I win and we'll just have to go, because I won't forget it."
So, the President is ordering his attorney general to prosecute people for alleged crimes involving the 2016 FBI counterintelligence operation into Russian interference in the 2016 election? Totally fine and very normal! Also, what does this mean: "then we're going to get little satisfaction unless I win and we'll just have to go, because I won't forget it."
22. "But, it's still not that easy, you have a 'deep state,' you have a group of people that don't want to have documents shown, which tells you bad thing, you know, but they -- they have to give them ultimately and we're getting them, you know."
The attorney general who was appointed by Trump is part of a "deep state" that refuses to criminally charge people for their actions curing the 2016 election? Man, everyone is in on it!

24. "If you were running for office, and if you see thousands and thousands of ballots being thrown into rivers, and they have your name on it in some cases, in other words people -- we had military ballots where people voted for me, military, the military's going to vote for me because I -- I rebuilt the military."
It was nine -- yes NINE -- ballots that were found in Pennsylvania. And local officials said that there was no malicious intent to get rid of them.

29. "And I saved the chicken tax on the truck with South Korea. They were going to wipe out the chicken tax."
Ah yes, the chicken tax.

30. "I went to the farmers, I said look, we got to play a game with these people but I'm going to put tariffs on you, nobody even heard of tariffs."
"I don't want to play games." -- Donald Trump, in this exact same interview.
31. "We have a lousy phone here."
Honestly, same.
32. "I've never seen such liars as this, they're worse than crooked Hillary, (Kamala Harris) was worse in other ways."
Again, keep in mind that Donald Trump once said four false things in one sentence.

Donnie Superspreader sure is pulling out all the stops to attract undecided voters during the home stretch, isn't he? I mean, there's got to be at least 3 of them that listen to Rush Limbaugh.
