doesn't mean it's spring.......Wuffies Bullshit endorsements of the Republicon's actions for years have massivley contributed to the damage we are all suffering from.....

His pro corporate, pro Republicon bull shit dates back to before the beginning of the appointment of "W" and the real directors of that era.....Cheney/Rumsfeld/et al

Screw Wuffie's momentary comments.......

He will go right back to his CASH COW, the Republicons, just give him a few minutes.......

And “Angry Trump turns briefing into propaganda session.”

He’s riding Fauci like a rented mule right now. This is astounding. He’s gone full Kim Jung Un.

So, I muted the briefing bc I was on the phone. I saw that CNN chyron and a few others -
“Trump falsely claims media ignored coronavirus in Jan, Feb....”
“Angry Trump uses propaganda video, produced by government employees at taxpayers’ expense”
“Trump melts down over reports he ignored virus warnings”
😂

on tape and twitter he can't rewrite it.
Just because he says something now it does not eradicate what came before.
History will excoriate him and his administration.
I hope to live to see his demise.

One was running a thing at the bottom saying if there is anything newsworthy they would go to the briefing. Right now the only place I can find his ugly puss is on Fox News and the Fox affiliate and we have cable.

soon. He can't hide anymore. He'll go and pout in the WH dreaming up of ways to get back at the states and people he no longer likes. Just wait. Be alert and be very aware of what this scumbag can do. Maybe this time (but I doubt it), the republicans in the Senate will step up and do their jobs finally, when they see first hand what damage to the Country this idiot is doing.

Probably won't come to their senses, after all, they all sold their stock under the table when they knew the CV was on its way to US shores, and didn't do anything for us. Remember the CV traitors should be a rallying cry at campaigns, but I suspect that there are going to be lots of campaign slogans around, that will bite at rump just as equally. The 30 second ad that rump filed a lawsuit on, is a great ad to start with.
