Shame Pelosi is not running for President. Outch.

Lweji · 20/05/2020 21:02

Prophylactics, vegeables and Pelosi

AcrossthePond55 · 20/05/2020 21:44

Oh My! Looks like Pelosi is taking off those velvet gloves!

As far as him being obese....he says he's 6'3" (which I don't believe) but fine. His 'normal' weight should be between 152-199 depending on frame. There's no frigging way he weighs 199 or less. Obese for that height is 240-311. There's no way his lard ass weighs less than 240. He's probably closer to 260-280 which puts him smack dab in the middle of obese. But if we put him at, say, 250 that gives him a BMI of 31.2, which falls in the 'morbidly obese' category (BMI 30+).

But I couldn't give a rat's ass if he was obese if he was even a moderately qualified president.

'Trump to lose 2020 election in landslide defeat, model predicts
A national election model has predicted that Trump will suffer a “historic defeat” in November’s election due to the coronavirus economic recession.
The forecast by Oxford Economics uses unemployment, disposable income and inflation to forecast election results to predict the outcome of November’s crucial presidential election and it sees Trump capturing just 35 per cent of the popular vote.
The same model has predicted the winner of the popular vote in 16 of the past 18 elections and its latest prediction marks a complete reversal of what it was predicting before the coronavirus outbreak hit the US'

Anniegetyourgun · 21/05/2020 13:03

But what does the popular vote have to do with it? It didn't exactly help last time.

I hope it is a historic defeat but would like to think it was for the million other reasons he should lose, and not covid.

Which were the two elections they got wrong? My bet is that one of them was 2016....

Words be hard.

"And I tested very positively in another sense. So this morning. I tested positively toward negative, right? So no, I tested perfectly this morning. Meaning I tested negative. But that's a way of saying it. Positively toward the negative."

The Auto workers Union just endorsed Biden.

So he's pulled out

B1rdbra1n · 21/05/2020 19:53

So he's pulled spat his dummy out
:o

B1rdbra1n · 21/05/2020 19:55

Positively toward the negative
known knowns and unknown knowns
positive negatives and negative positives
two wrongs can make a right
what sauce should we put with that world salad?

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 21/05/2020 20:17

I thought they AWU endorsed Biden a month ago?

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 21/05/2020 20:18

UAW, sorry.

Roussette · 21/05/2020 20:30

Didn't know Asking I just read he'd pulled out Smile

AcrossthePond55 · 21/05/2020 20:42

See, that word salad is because he simply cannot stand the thought of the word 'negative' being applied to him, or anything about him.

Even when being 'negative' is a good thing.

BruceAndNosh · 21/05/2020 21:24

Love the confusion about a positive negative test!
I'm sure you're right that Trump can't envisage having a "negative" result because it sounds bad.

Language is complex. In cancer medicine, disease progession means it's getting worse. But patients ask "am I progressing?" meaning a positive thing.

BruceAndNosh · 21/05/2020 21:30

The Michigan Ford factory visit went ahead.
Without a mask

Roussette · 21/05/2020 21:36

I've just seen it, I got it wrong! Fake news Grin

Here he is not wearing a mask just looking at it...

B1rdbra1n · 21/05/2020 23:14

cannot stand the thought of the word 'negative'
he must feel that he stands on very thin ice if a tiny thing like that is such a risk to him?

B1rdbra1n · 21/05/2020 23:15

maybe he was traumatised in a sex game and that's why he's so scared of that mask?

Roussette · 22/05/2020 07:33

There's pics of him on Twitter with a mask on, but I have a feeling they may be doctored. He said he put one on, but I don't believe a thing he says.

BruceAndNosh · 22/05/2020 09:18

Maybe the mask didn't come with instructions?
