Yesterday criminal Fuhrer Trump* must have felt anxious over watching his chances to steal the 2020 election slip through the fingers on his tiny hands. In an attempt to circumvent that probability, he dusted off his PhD in Bullshitology. True to form, he piled it higher and deeper.
President Trump acknowledged on Tuesday that the coronavirus pandemic was growing more severe in the United States and endorsed mask wearing in a shift after weeks of playing down the seriousness of the crisis that has killed more than 140,000 Americans.
Rather than just “embers” of the virus, as he has repeatedly characterized recent outbreaks afflicting much of the country, Mr. Trump conceded that there were now “big fires,” particularly in Florida and elsewhere across the South and West. He vowed to press a “relentless” campaign to curb the spread without offering any new specific plans for how to do so.
“It will probably, unfortunately, get worse before it gets better,” Mr. Trump told reporters as he resumed the televised coronavirus briefings that he had called off in late April. “Something I don’t like saying about things, but that’s the way it is. It’s what we have.”
The president’s shift had its limits, however, as he again congratulated himself on his handling of the pandemic, admitted no missteps and made a number of specious claims. He included none of his public health experts in the briefing and falsely asserted that he had never resisted wearing a mask. And he contradicted his own press secretary, who had told reporters just hours earlier that the president was sometimes tested for the virus multiple times a day; in fact, he said, he has never been tested more than once in a single day… [emphasis added]

According to Dr. Anthony Fauci, he did not attend Trump’s* plague show, because he wasn’t invited.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
BBA: I have a hard time listening to him. People dying by large numbers from covid. dt doesn’t lead or offers sympathy. He doesn’t care. NBC: Biden delivers and speaks the truth. How refreshing and so down to earth.
Lawrence said that the most shocking part of the so-called briefing was his “I widh her well” in regard to Ghislaine Maxwell. And I agree – in a way. (Not 100% because “shocking” has become meaningless in reegard to Trump*).
But it’s not like Maxwell defaced any Confederate statues or committed any other vile, heinous acts.
You’ll see today some of the attention that got.
Bullshitology is a skill deeply embeded in his minimally functioning cerebral vacuum!
I had been hoping that he’d use his return to the daily briefings to put his foot still deeper into his mouth. and he did not disappoint. The comment about Maxwell should be weaponized!! I can not tolerate watching him speak for more than a moment, also.
At least the Orange Oaf admitted that this pandemic will get worse before it gets better. What he won’t acknowledge is that his own incompetence and folly are what made it so bad in the first place.
I was stunned to see that tRump was the only one to speak at the briefing.
I thought that it was going to be pEnce and the doctors.
What a flipping waste of time.
I signed petitions today that were requesting that they stop future broadcasting of tRump’s Covid-19 briefings.
While *Rump’s efforts at a “Turn the page”, “Makeover”, “Change the tone”, etc. is a minor improvement – if he thinks this will move the needle come November (or if even his “new demeanor” can last until then) … he’s crazier than I already know he is.
Not bad for a government and president who until very recently said it was a hoax and that it would disappear on its own. Just wondering why Trump didn’t mention this great deal in his speech; it didn’t bother him that he contradicted himself in every other possible way.
Of course, these briefings have little or nothing to do with fighting the pandemic. The pandemic is what keeps him from campaigning, so he resorts to using these press conferences again to put himself in the spotlight and campaign. Medical advisors already weren’t invited or couldn’t be bothered to show up, so it’s very clear to most what’s going on.
Biden should stop playing with his mask while he’s talking. That’s giving the wrong example.
Thanks, rushed Hugs, and Amen to all.
