Weave Posted February 19, 2020 Report Posted February 19, 2020 Apparently white collar crime isn't a crime Trump wants punished here. Unless your name is Biden or Clinton.
drnkirishone Posted February 19, 2020 Report Posted February 19, 2020 Wait, you are telling me a old, white, 2nd gen rich man doesn't want white collar crime punished unless it directly benefits him? I am shocked! Shocked I tell you!
Weave Posted February 19, 2020 Report Posted February 19, 2020 Chris Collins gets pardoned. Guaranteed.

But wouldn’t that fall under cleaning up the corrupt government politicians and returning the rule of law to the US? I feel like someone said they were going to do that kind of stuff. They may have even promised it.

LGR4GM Posted February 25, 2020 Author Report Posted February 25, 2020 Jesus ***** hell, how do people not understand what this guy is? He's a wannabe dictator and that wannabe title will be lifted if he is re-elected. Democracy in the US is in its death throws.

Wonder when Pence will tell us only "the gays" and "the immigrants" are responsible and we start putting US citizens in camps.

Any science that does not fit his world view is denied. I am better but Pence is not. And yes I do believe he will blame someone else for the spread of the virus because we already see it. Immigrants are blamed for crime and an entire list of other things in this country even though all the stats say that immigrants are a positive impact. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/mike-pence-coronavirus-hiv-indiana-smoking-conversion-therapy-a9364026.html

What LGR said about Pence really isn't that much of a stretch. Pence was going to put discriminatory legislation through until his state's biggest employer went to him and said he would move his entire business out and he would lose all those tax dollars. He's not a good guy.
SABRES 0311 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 Just dipping my toes back in here. Not a doctor but people are scared because this is new and it is pretty serious. That said I’m confident we will get through this. Doom and gloom clouds an individual’s thoughts which need to be clear if this thing goes sideways.

I always thought the orange man thing was funny. On one hand he is of unnatural color and I admit he looks like something from The Jersey Shore. On the other hand if someone referred to a non white politician by calling them “color-gender” the world would stop spinning. Yes he did it to himself presumably by spray tan or too much time in a tanning bed. It still makes me laugh that those who don’t like Trump use his physical appearance as a punch line.

Not all of them. In fact, I’m willing to wager that a majority of them don’t. I’m also willing to wager that some that support him also make jokes about his appearance. It serves him right because, as you’ve noted, he’s done it to himself. How many times/ways has he made fun of other peoples looks? He’s a vile personality that can’t escape the clutches of karma. No one can.
Frieda Posted March 1, 2020 Report Posted March 1, 2020 You can lie about crowd size, accepting Russia's help and making up fake crap about a former President and a possible future opponent, but lying about something that has killed people will come back and bite him in the ass

He didn't say the virus is a hoax. He said the Democrats are using it as a political weapon and that the Dems claims are a hoax. Granted, he didn't actually say what claims. I can only assume he's referring to the criticism of his choice of actions in response to the virus' threat (ie. Pence in charge of it) and his public statements minimizing the concern. Frankly, I think he's in a bit of a panic because the one good thing that has happened under is rule is rapidly falling apart in response to the virus' threats (the stock market). Quote “Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus,” Trump said. “They have no clue, they can't even count their votes in Iowa. This is their new hoax,” Trump continued, adding that attacking the White House’s response to the coronavirus had become the Democratic Party’s “single talking point.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-calls-coronavirus-democrats-new-hoax-n1145721

It’s rhetorical. I think he’s worried as well as a lot of officials worldwide. So far one American has died and symptoms can stay dormant for 14 days I think. Good way to create panic. The original post claims Trump is lying about the virus. Which part? I agree saying Pence is the right guy to handle might fall into a lie. Time will tell.

Just clarifying, 2 in the US have now died, and there seems to be a possibly community spread outbreak in Washington State. UPDATE: Its now 6 and definitely spreading in Washington State.
