Clown Car V: 2020 version!

Bleh.

I'd just change it to November, but the stupid train isn't stopping there this time, I don't think.

 

[Sommerswerd]

I saw the post before you changed it, same difference... I get it.

And no, Trump's election was like shining that magic UV light on the walls in the crime shows/movies... once you know you know... even after the light is turned off you can't unsee what you know is there. So in November, the beatings will continue until morale improves.

Here we go:

Biden's poll-rise has been rather breezy.
Trump's debate-wreck has made it look easy.
With this latest health scare,
If he doesn't take care,
Even Yeezy beats President Wheezy.

If you think the GOP is in great shape we need a dose of reality up in here.

You were saying this before the 2016 election as I recall...

Trevor Noah: ‘An outbreak at the White House is not karma. It's consequences.’

Marina Hyde: ‘The president tells us he beat coronavirus like a man: the kind who takes all the best drugs and leaves everyone else exposed’

Edit: I think the best line I've read was their quoting a Secret Service agent's off-the-record statements to CNN: Dying in the line of duty used to mean taking a bullet for the president; it could now involve taking him a Diet Coke.

The Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is self-quarantining but it's unclear if it's related to the current outbreak. Probably is.

2 secret service members have gotten sick, as well as two groundskeepers and more that I can't remember.

Steven Miller has it.

Pence won't use a plexiglass barrier at the debate but Harris will have one installed around herself.

SNL is going to have a field day with that.

You've just reminded me of a sequence in The Adventures of Tin Tin where the detectives get themselves an umbrella because Captain Haddock keeps spraying saliva when he shouts. Aboard a spaceship!

Steven Miller has it.

Hallelujah! God be praised.

Two more White House press aids have the virus. More members of the Joint Chiefs are under quarantine.

Our government seems to be unraveling.

 

[Sommerswerd]

Seems?

"Unraveling" would imply that is was raveled to begin with.

Government Shutdown ?
GOP is burning it all down ready to hand it off to the DEM again.

Did Trump put out a video message yesterday? One of his press people made a point yesterday morning of how he had put out a video every day he was sick and that more would be forthcoming. Also yesterday morning Trump was telling people he wanted to do a national address in the afternoon but that didn't happen. Are his doctors even briefing the press anymore?

What doctors? Why would he need doctors? Why are you such a scaredy cat do gooder!? . . .

I swear to God this GOP is like the worst high school movie ever.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

I know, I know but seriously, did he put any videos out yesterday?

Someone pointed out early on that his telepresence (or lack thereof) is a good indicator of his health. I know he rage tweeted yesterday a bit when calling off stimulus talks, but those messages were too well put together to have been by him even though it had ALL CAPS RAGE (IMO). And not putting out a video after his team said they'd do one every day is also indicative.

Republican have worms in their brain
Of course cornavirus is spreading couldnt be because Republicans refuse to wear mask, wash hands or minimise contact.

We do seem to be caught in an eerie Groundhog Day-esque cycle/timeloop whereby we elect Republicans, they screw everything up and bring us to the brink of apocalypse, then we elect Democrats to "fix" things, but when things start improving, we forget how we got there and decide to elect Republicans because we aren't satisfied with how quickly the Democrats are cleaning up the mess... and the whole process starts all over again.
