knapplc Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 He did nothing. He called Kevin Warren once, Warren basically blew him off, and the Big Ten relied on science and medical experts to make their decision (and a couple of pending lawsuits greased the wheels). But of course Trump is going to take credit for playing a role in this. Mississippi. These utter clowns. 1 Link to comment

Whoever wrote her cue cards must have used the state abbreviations, but expecting members of the Trump administration to know their states is too much intellectual effort. I mean there are a lot of states that start with M, who the hell knows that MI stands for Michigan?!?! (other than fifth graders and above who have taken geography) I'm impressed that she got the other states right without having them all spelled out phonetically. She clearly stumbled for a beat before saying Nebraska though. Link to comment

Enhance Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Sometimes I imagine just an entire staff of relatively unknown, incognito folks in the White House whose entire job description is to stay in touch with nationally relevant topics that the president could in any way tie back to being responsible for... even if it's in a modest to virtually non-existent capacity. Oh wait yeah sorry that's just how pr/communications works in the White House these days my bad. Real leaders don't treat these types of morsels as steak dinners for their own selfless promotion.

When you have very very little good happening that people see from your administration, you tend to grasp at the most insignificant things that can possibly make you look good. 2 Link to comment
Moiraine Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I mean, look at how many idiots fall for it. May as well claim credit for more. Trump should claim he shot down the plain heading for the third twin tower with a slingshot and saved 500,000 lives because the angle it was flying at would have caused it to tip over onto 10 other buildings.

That’s just not true. The market has been rising since the initial Pfizer news. It’s vaccine related, though it could be a sugar high if unemployment starts to rise again because of the shutdowns. 1 Link to comment

Free money all around isn’t sustainable and I hope you agree it’s been happening since long before Trump. and I hope you will agree that @knapplcwas spewing nonsense when he said the market is rising because everyone in the market is happy Trump is leaving which is just not true. It’s vaccine and treasury related upswing. 2 Link to comment
