THIS is how you beat Trump....you don't play nice or fair or even logically and definitely not on policy or intention...no, to beat him, keep feeding him rope, helping him tie around his own neck and nudge him towards the edge of the platform where he can jump all on his own...

The man is as stupid and the day is long, as ignorant as an uninformed child and as vain as the greatest greek tragedy you wish to apply to him...he CANNOT stop trying to make himself look "tough" in any context....so keep feeding him options that while logical, sane and empathetic would mean he HAS to admit a mistake, and watch him try to do the opposite out of spite.

Defending the fucking Confederacy? AS THE POTUS??? Really? Just keep him going down the toilet bowl...

Tell him that immigrant children cure COVID19 with antibodies that only they produce...and watch him denounce immigrants for trying to bring untested and dangerous medicine into the country...

Tell him that black children inherently do anything better than white children (not because of anything approaching reality...just to poke him) and watch him shriek about the cancelling of white culture...

Tell him that ANTIFA is setting up pro-Trump rallies to draw people away from the Democrats and seed chaos, and watch him start praising ANTIFA as 'really getting it' and being 'great, great patriots'....

It doesn't even have to make sense, in fact its probably exponentially better the less sense it makes...let the Dotard dot!

For each base named for a confederate traitor, there is a surplus of Union persons who have been deprived of being recognized for contributions in winning the war. And, those honorable people did not own slaves.

Much past the time to correct that mistake and get on with the renaming.
