Nah, that's when the USA showed how many ignorant and racist shits there are in the GOP and how many of us Democrats suffered from complacency and/or apathy and didn't vote.

If Scrotus is reelected in Nov we will still not 'jump the shark', we will have pried its jaws open and stepped right into its fearful, gaping maw.

From the BBC
The White House has sent a memo to staff directing more aides to wear masks when in the West Wing or avoid President Trump's office altogether if possible
Everyone except Trump has to wear masks when really if anyone needs their mouth covered it's him...

Watched a little of the press conf.

Washington Post reporter Philip Rucker: "What is the crime you're accusing President Obama of with your Mother's Day tweets?"

Trump: "Obamagate...You know what the crime is. The crime is very obvious to everybody. All you have to do is read the newspapers, except yours."

So Trump doesn't actually know what he's accused Obama of doing...?

" Very, very ugly ending to that one hour appearance by the President in the Rose Garden"

I saw that end bit, it was shocking. A decent question from a Chinese American reputable journalist, the question was about COVID numbers in the US compared to other countries...
Trump told her to 'Go and ask China'.
She challenged him on this
Shock

what a scene, the most powerful man in the world gets backchat from 2 young women and then he goes off in a huff
the old beast will soon be felled, mere women are snapping at his heels

AcrossthePond55 · 11/05/2020 23:12

Jeez. He gets more and more unhinged. Why doesn't he just fucking lose it already and save us the next 5 months worth of embarrassment?

BruceAndNosh · 11/05/2020 23:37

I read the Beeb coverage, toys out of pram again.
Now we know why all his staff are wearing masks...
To hide these faces
Shock
Confused
Hmm

B1rdbra1n · 11/05/2020 23:55

I think he's triggered by people who are wearing masks and/or socially distanced
he experiences it as an insult/act of defiance against him because it works against his chosen narrative

BruceAndNosh · 12/05/2020 00:39

If you're hoping to be reelected as President , it's not a good idea to act so unPresidential

Biden could save a load of money, instead of making expensive campaign videos, just get some nerd to spend half an hour editing together 5 minutes of "trump losing his shit"
Or just that video that @B1rdbra1n posted above

Mittens030869 · 12/05/2020 11:15

Trump when losing his rag and stomping back into the White House is a regular occurrence, it seems, and reminds me of my DD2 (8) when she stomps away in a huff at not getting her own way.
