he's then got to face 4 years of clearing up the shit show he's created.

Agree with all your points except this bit, BruceAndNosh.

He doesn't do clearing up his shit. Never has done.

It's so hard to stop applying the normal assumptions we have about the world; that's why he and his team run rings around decent people with standards.

@B1rdbra1n

There was that recent interview where he said (in reference to Biden) 'he's going to be your president' So yes I think he might drop out!
What interview was this? Do you have a link?
BruceAndNosh · 29/06/2020 14:41

[quote AskingQuestionsAllTheTime]It was with Sean Hannity. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-seemingly-tells-sean-hannity-that-biden-will-win-saying-hes-going-to-be-your-president[/quote]
Which also included Trump saying that a friend said "he was the most perfect person"
Worth watching if only the the WTF expression on Hannitys face.

Every time Trump & his cronies say the bounty report is not true, remind them:

  1. It was independently confirmed by three major newspapers. The @nytimes, The @WSJ and @washingtonpost.
  2. It was confirmed by British intelligence.
  3. Credible reports say Trump knew in January.

Randy 🥰

Was wondering- Has Trump's presidency done anything commendable at all? (In the "normal" sense of course - not just lining some rich fucker's pocket)

The city of Jacksonville, where the RNC plans to hold its convention, is about to order a city-wide indoor mask-wearing order.
This could get "interesting"...

McNinny's latest non apology for Trump re the "white Power" retweet

"But he made very clear to me that he stands with the people of The Villages, our great seniors, men and women in the Villages who support this president," she continued. "He stands for them and his point in tweeting out that video was to stand with his supporters who are oftentimes demonized."

People who shout White Power! deserve to be demonised.

BTW, I've visited The Villages in Florida. It's quite surreal. It's all road-worthy Golf carts, oxygen cylinders, dinner at 4.30 and elasticated waists.

macaroniandpizza · 29/06/2020 21:53

I absolutely love randy after discovering him through these threads and ive now got my cousin watching him too Grin

lionheart · 29/06/2020 22:18

Did McNinny leave the presser in a strop today? Smile

AcrossthePond55 · 29/06/2020 23:12

Oh I needed a big hefty slice o' Randy today! Thanks, Jai.

I've turned off telly and taking a break from the news today. DH is gone doing his 'hobby' with a mate so I'm eating absolute crap and watching absolute crap. I plan to numb a few brain cells by the end of the day.

Roussette · 29/06/2020 23:39

Bruce being completely ignorant of what the Villages actually are, I was very confused when I saw the footage in question.

Being a bit slow on the uptake, I couldn't work out why everyone was in golf carts driving around and assumed it was some enormous golf range for the older age group.

Never realised people actually live there.

Lion I actually saw some of the presser today and McNinny did leave very swiftly. But as she had said the same statement about ten times regarding Trumpy and the Russin bounty on US soldiers, I imagined she'd bored herself daft.

TheClaws · 30/06/2020 02:18

Another confirmation of the Russian bounty intel. It doesn’t look good for POTUS.

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

I just reviewed the intel.

It’s not a hoax, Mr. President.

And if you continue ignoring the facts, more soldiers and marines are going to die.

Roussette · 30/06/2020 07:48

Here's another version of the trump phone calls. Shocking. If his advisers are shocked, it must be bad, what a shame they wouldn't do anything.

It's a long piece but worth reading.
