What did the Huff do when it said Trump cost countless lives? Apparently there are enough lies and half truths to go any where any time. Best regards, RA1 intohotguys 1 Quote
Members JKane Posted April 19, 2020 Members Posted April 19, 2020 The facts aren't hard to find, I'm so tired of "partisan truth". Trump's only accomplishment in the early days was the China ban, by which time the states receiving direct flights had already put in screening and limits and after which something like 450,000 still traveled. He then went to several campaign rallies and golf trips while downplaying the "China flu" as a hoax. Ignoring dire warnings and advisories from experts for all of February and doing fuck-all in March to boot. His circuses, I mean press conferences are often full of objective lies. Anybody who can't take 2 seconds and instead defends them... And we know he doesn't actually know what "billions" are as he's been lying about being a billionaire most of his life.

I think the "facts" are very difficult to find. And, sometimes, even harder to evaluate. But, thanks for your opinion. Best regards, RA1 Quote
Members SexyAsianStud Posted April 19, 2020 Members Posted April 19, 2020 I have information from a good source over at the daddys site that the whole COVID thing is a democratic hoax to ensure that trump loses the 2020 election.... my source must have unimpeachable (pardon the pun) information because he is willing to, and encouraging others, to resume normal behaviors asap. now i understand that st. augustine has more than just mild traces of senility, but this is clearly an actionable analysis which because of its real world implications must be based on more than just the deranged hunches of a demented soul.

I have no intention of "reviewing" those which some call fake news sources. There are many things I do not like that Trump says but I am willing to applaud many of the things that he does. However, I have to think that many of pols who previously attacked our economy are still with us. It is difficult, no? Best regards. RA1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Trump is a disaster. His policies are a disaster. A reckoning will come at the next election. Just which way I am not sure as we have too many that have drank the Kool-Aid. Quote

When was the last time we ever had evidence that DJT ever read a word in print? JKane 1 Quote
