kingdragonfly: And as the 2018 election heats up, many of Trump Jr.’s tweets center on billionaire and longtime progressive donor George Soros. Specifically, they focus on a conspiracy theory regarding the Hungarian-born Jewish investor: that he’s a Nazi....

 

 

That's the important point, he's a Jewish concentration-camp survivor, so claiming he's a Nazi is utterly crazy.

 

 

I've heard a slightly different form of this, that he funded the Nazis. At the age of about five, apparently. Or maybe he had a time machine and sent the money back through time to them.

 

 

Anyway, it's an inspired troll of the far right, and I take my hat off to whoever came up with it.

You have to read that headline carefully, an MP that Johnson came into contact with tested positive, but not Johnson himself. In other words it's not "Boris Johnson self-isolating after PM tests positive for Covid-19". The BBC needs to learn about Hamming distances in headlines.

Hope it is OK to post a joke. Cartoons are allowed so here goes.

 

A man died and went to Heaven. As he stood in front of the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, 'What are all those clocks?'

St. Peter answered, 'Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone who has ever lived
on earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie, the hands on your clock move.'

'Oh', said the man. 'Whose clock is that?'
'That's Mother Teresa's', replied St. Peter. 'The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie.'

'Incredible', said the man. 'And whose clock is that one?'
St. Peter responded, 'That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved  twice, telling us that Abraham told only two lies in his entire life.'

'Where's Donald Trump’s clock?' asked the man….

St. Peter replied, 'Jesus has it in his office.. He uses it as a ceiling fan...'

The Washington Post - With pandemic raging, Republicans say election results validate their approach

 

today

 


Their victories in state and local races have allowed GOP leaders to claim a mandate for their let-it-be approach to pandemic management, with pleas for “personal responsibility” substituting government intervention. 

 

As hospitals fill and deaths climb, it’s a philosophy that public health experts warn could have disastrous consequences this winter. ...

 

Yet the election results suggest there is no political penalty in many areas of the country for failing to heed the advice of public health authorities. 

 

There may, in fact, be a benefit in not doing so and in arguing that economic interests take precedence. ...

 

 


Nasty!   😦

What is the point in having a job if you're f-ing dead? These idiots are all playing Russian roulette and just assuming the chamber with the bullet won't stop on them. Stupid and selfish!

If you're (understandably) feeling bad about the recent blizzards of bullsh*t, take a few minutes to watch this clip. I think you might feel a little better.

... and 3 hours before that ~ 3pm NZT today

 

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

 

 

Why does the Fake News Media continuously assume that Joe Biden will ascend to the Presidency, not even allowing our side to show, which we are just getting ready to do, how badly shattered and violated our great Constitution has been in the 2020 Election. It was attacked, ... perhaps like never before! From large numbers of Poll Watchers that were thrown out of vote counting rooms in many of our States, to millions of ballots that have been altered by Democrats, only for Democrats, to voting after the Election was over, to using Radical Left ... owned Dominion Voting Systems, turned down by Texas and many others because it was not good or secure, those responsible for the safeguarding of our Constitution cannot allow the Fake results of the 2020 Mail-In Election to stand. The World is watching!

 



 

Yes, the World is watching. That much is true.   😶

 

EDIT : Is he insane, or just pretending to be insane?

Fox News debunking Trump's claims about election fraud.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons Alt-Right protestors were chanting "Fox News sucks."

I guess no one wants to hear the Emperor's has no clothes

The only single-term ex-president who's been impeached, Citizen Trump will still be tweeting "I WON!" from the uncomfortable cold stainless steel toilet of a NY state prison.  I hope so - it's very entertaining. Hopefully his full-on true Nazi friend Stephen Miller can smuggle an iPhone in for him. iPhone because patent for round corners, I'm not a sadist.

Such is the condition of America right now, that you'd probably get opposing answers - and fully predictable if you knew beforehand how the psychiatrist voted.

I think it's just a matter of time until he mans up about it. But I did see someone say it might be too late for him to concede now.

 

And how's this for a plausible explanation for the "million" crowd size?

Camouflage clothing? Of course!

He could have conceded like a man, or like anyone. Aim to fight the next fight. But all he has done is be AWOL for 6 days, playing golf, and back to tweeting. No class. he is an aberration so I hope those few that saw that as unfair can also man up. Elections are won and lost, its no conspiracy. And BTW its nothing to do with GOP or DEM;s, he is an aberration, its that simple. An embarrassment to the US and to democracy. Drain the swamp? LOL he is the swamp.
