break the habit everyone...Trump is not the news anymore. He's a ridiculous figure who will go down in history as America's biggest mistake. Stop giving him what he wants --attention. The President elect is the story. Covid is the story. Trump is a circus clown.
Jason Miller, Trump's chief strategist just said the President is ready to lead on Covid because he's been through it. So for seven months he refused to lead because it didn't effect him. That is a stunning admission from the Trump campaign.
President admits he was distracted by impeachment and that impacted his decision making. Fails to mention the 11 rallies and 9 rounds of golf he played.
This is all on the 52 Republican Senators who chose to look the other way. Your friend is inciting violence and people will die. The blood is on your hands.
Every voter in Georgia needs to know that the Republican party this morning blocked a $2000 stimulus check for those in need. Now they may get nothing. Send your thanks to them by voting for Warnock and Ossof.
The Postmaster General is the perfect test of Congressional power. He should be subpoenaed immediately and when he resists, he should be arrested and held by the House until he testifies. They have that power.
In 1974, GOP Congressional leaders went to the WH to tell Nixon it was time to resign over Watergate. Today, GOP leaders went to the WH to conspire with Trump to overturn a democratic election. From leaders to traitors.
Laura Ingraham told her viewers tonight that there is no scientific evidence that social distance works. She quoted an unnamed Doc as saying viruses just spread, you can't stop them. This is exhibit 459 in the class action lawsuit she and Fox are going to face.
My last point before i lose the 3 followers i have left. I want the truth to come out in a court of law where Trump faces real legal jeopardy, not in a rigged Senate court with amoral Republican jurors. Jail is worse then a couple more days of evidence before an acquittal.
To be clear, the President stomped off at the end of the Press Conference because he realized he just revealed himself as the racist he is and knew he had to get out of there before anyone followed up. A racist and a coward.
There is a debate raging this morning. was
@realDonaldTrump
Buffalo tweet a despicable lie for political reasons or is he bat shit crazy. The answer is both.
Message to the more than 100 newspapers who called on President Clinton to resign who have remained silent on Trump -- you have some soul searching to do.
When this is all over and we properly examine what was done right and what was done wrong I hope we can have an honest national conversation on the toxic effect of Fox News. They are a critical instrument of Trump and his approach to the crisis.
Really appreciate the Trump campaign reciting my political history. Hereโs the thing. Iโve worked in 5 Presidential campaigns and no senior member of any of those campaigns was indicted or jailed. Interesting contrast
Funniest thing Iโve heard in awhile. Republican Senators saying Bolton should have testified in the Senate. All of them votes against hearing witnesses. They were obviously kidding today
Trump supporters say he's done a great job on bringing down the debt --the opposite is true. They say he's brought back the jobs --he has the worst record in 100 years. They say he's the only leader to beat the virus --we have the worst record in the world. They're in a cult.
President Trump is nothing more than a marketing con man. He sold himself to America the same way he sold Trump steaks, Trump vodka and Trump University. Lot's of sizzle, but never any steak and on to the next con before he's caught. He promised to build a wall and have
Simple idea of the morning. If Kayne wants to run to help
@realDonaldTrump
letโs hit them in the pocketbook. Boycott all Khardashian products. That includes all of them. No show, no perfume, no other shit they sell. Reduce them to the infomercial crowd Trump will soon be joining
No paid speeches for Trump. No board memberships. No donations for a Presidential Library. No investments from banks to fund more building. No honors or awards Just shame for the rest of his life. He's given up the best job in the world -- former President of the United States
Governor DeSantis now says he'll take the 49 Floridians off the cruise ship sitting of his shores. He won't take the other 250 Americans or the 400 Canadians. So much for the country pulling together. Thanks for the national leadership
@realDonaldTrump
Turns out that murder can be quite profitable. Rittenhouse received almost 500K in donations for his defense. What kind of country have we become when a kid goes looking for trouble, finds it, kills two people and we reward him with money?
Reports now confirm that Jared Kushner and other White House aides pressured the CDC into not issuing the appropriate warnings on Covid. People died because of it. If we do nothing to hold these people accountable, we dishonor the lives of the dead.
Susan Collins voted today for the new top intelligence officer for the country who totally lacks intelligence He has no experience he lied about having experience and he completes Trump's dismantling of our intelligence services. Ask Senator Collins why she made America less safe
Itโs impossible to escape the fact the GOP no longer supports democracy. At every level they are supporting nullifying a free and fair election. They are not sliding toward fascism, theyโre already there
1. If the GOP really thinks the families of the candidates should be an issue, then lets do it. Let's talk about the dozens of legal settlements, convictions against the company he says his kids run. Let's talk about the thousands of times Trump org has been sued.
I applaud musicians over 70 taking a stand about Joe Rogan and Spotify. Just wondering when the uber conscious Gen Z, Gen Y and whatever else is out there will take a stand. You can't expect us boomers to do everything.
The most striking thing about
@realDonaldTrump
approach to the pandemic six months in is how little he cares. There is no emotion in talking about the victims or the fight America faces. He treats it like it's a political annoyance that hurts him more than anyone.
Memo to the 100 newspapers who called for Clinton to resign.
@realDonaldTrump
has obstructed justice, sided with Putin, extorted Ukraine, put kids in cages, ignored a pandemic that's killed 167K and now gutting USPS to steal election. Are you ready to weigh in yet?
BREAKING NEWS Lara Trump endorses call for
@potus
to release his tax returns because "well I would think if you were being accused of something and you were totally innocent, you would go to any length possible to try to clear your name...."
Before i fall for the false outrage over
@SpeakerPelosi
i would like to know where and how all the bleached blondes
@foxnews
and the White House have managed to keep their hair from returning to it's natural color.
It's worth saying again -- the political career of Mike Pence is over. Nikki Haley dead. Ted Cruz over. Lindsey Graham done. All the apologists are always hurt more than
@realDonaldTrump
That's what a contagious disease does.
I'll start the fund. 10k for the kid who took the SAT's for Trump. Everyone will give, you'll be set for life. Come forward now and do a public service. It will clear your conscience and fill up your bank account. Retweet with what you can contribute.
#SATGUY
Hey
@TuckerCarlson
Why is the vaccine safe for you and your family but not safe for all of your viewers? Why do all
@foxnews
employees have to wear masks but. you encourage your viewers to go maskless? Perhaps -- a bit of contempt for your viewers?
Bondi is opening the door for the Senate to call Jared and Ivanka and Eric and Don Jr. They made hundreds of millions last year. Let's take a look at that.
Tonight
@realDonaldTrump
is testing the Republican party. He basically said he plans to stay in office because he doesn't view the election as legitimate. Silence from Republicans in the next 24 hours is complicity. Silence means they support a coup against our democracy.
The 60 minutes interview highlighted the President's two most distinct character traits --he is weak and afraid like many bullies are and he is fundamentally a liar. He's too lazy or not smart enough to do the work or understand the subjects so he just makes it up.
Memo to the media and pundit class -- you can't simultaneously call this week a coup and domestic terrorism and then describe Dems impeachment calls as political. If it was an attack on our democracy, then the Dems are defending our democracy. Thats not political its patriotic
When the GSA finally triggers cooperation with the Trump Administration, the Biden team is likely to find out that there is no response to the pandemic, they haven't been doing anything to contain the virus.
Overheard convo between two Republican Senators who only watch Fox News. "is this stuff real? I haven't heard any of this before. I thought it was all about a server. If half the stuff Schiff is saying is true, we're up shit's creek. Hope the White House has exculpatory evidence
I, for one, am no longer interested in hearing from Dr. Brix. Her vouching for Trump's vast scientific abilities from his business background was the breaking point. Stepford Doc
The White House is considering directing the postal service not to deliver mail in ballots. 23 postal execs were sacked this week. If this doesnโt scare you, democracy must be optional to you. via
@politico
When the WH was asked this morning why they werenโt sharing Covid response info with the Biden team their answer was why should we. Not disputing Biden won, just saying they were under no obligation to help them. Let that sink in.
Being a Republican Senator now means nothing matters. Nothing matters. Not the storming of the Capitol, not an attempted coup, not trying to overturn a free and fair election. Nothing matters. The party of Trump. Nothing matters.
Cipollone is going to have to face the DC bar to explain why, even though he was warned by Congress, he did not disclose he was a potential fact witness in this case. A clear violation of legal ethics. I hope he knows a good lawyer.
A little advice for my twitter friends. Lisa murkowski needs our support right now not our scorn. She is not Susan Collins. She has a real independent streak-remember she originally won as a write in candidate. She voted against Kavanaugh. Give her a chance here.
I love when Trump reads a line from the prepared remarks and then spends 3-4 sentences explaining it to prove he knows what the sentence means. It's almost like he may not be very smart
There seems like there are only about a couple hundred protesters in each state. It seems the media is giving a few hundred people outsized coverage and significance.
The Democratic "establishment" is not delivering wins for Biden tonight -- Democratic voters are doing it. Blacks, Latinos, suburban women, college educated and working class. It's insulting to these voters to suggest they are being coerced.
Let this one sink in. The President just threatened to shut down Congress. They do that in Russia. They do that in China. They do that in banana republics. Welcome to our new world.
Case in point on why Trump never apologizes. Joe Biden apologizes for a dumb remark and MSNBC is still covering it. Trump makes anti-Semitic comments in Detroit and itโs forgotten. He knows how to play the refs
Memo to select media-you know who you are. For three days Rick Scott has alleged voter fraud. For three days he has refused to provide any evidence. For three days heโs received massive coverage of his charges. Please consider not repeating his claims until he produces evidence
Is there not a single Republican who will rise to object to the President of the United States trafficking in fake videos of the Speaker of the House? Do you have that little respect for the House? Do you have that little self respect? Are you all amoral cowards?
Can anyone explain to me after everything that's happened in the last 3.5 years why almost no major newspaper editorial page has not called for the resignation of the President? What would it take for them to take that stand?
Dear Republican Senators --
@realDonaldTrump
has smeared one of your colleagues suggesting she is not eligible to be President. Anyone of you want to stand up for your colleague? Any on of you have an ounce of respect for the Senate? Anyone still have any decency?
There is no bigger story then what is unfolding in Portland. This may be a precursor for a militia style takeover of our cities sanctioned by
@realDonaldTrump
campaign you can overestimate the danger here
The most moronic statement in last 24 hours is from Mitch McConnell. He said we know what happened, we saw it happening. Imagine if George Bush said after 9/11 I saw it on TV, no need to investigate or hold anyone accountable.
My last word on the subject of the President's fitness to serve. I've watched nearly all the briefings and am struck by how little he cares about the dead and dying. He only seems interested in letting people know what he's doing and it's not his fault. That's a sickness.
I stood behind that podium for two years and never engaged in anything close to what we saw today. This is North Korea type propaganda. We have a President who cares only about himself and not about Americans.
