    Trump slunk out of his briefing today (with his tail between his legs) because he didn't want to answer questions about his egregiously absurd statement about "injecting disinfectant".

    Before today, Trump has (routinely) entertained questions for over an hour.

    Tomorrow, or the next day, Etc.--Trump WILL have to answers questions about this.

    Nobody (especially the people in the press room) is going to forget about this.

    If Trump thinks that he is going to be able to ignore answering for this, he is extremely mistaken.

    This is the sort of thing that could stew all weekend (and be front and center on the Morning shows).

    Another thing that was incredible about today's briefing:

    Birx and Fauci (usually fixtures at these briefings) were both conspicuously absent (so they wouldn't be ambushed by the press to discredit Trump's statement).

    Trump Must Realize that he can't avoid facing up to questions about this?

    He can't possibly be so delusional that he thinks this will "go away"? Can he?

    Trump haters with serious daddy issues won't let it go away.

    They'll claim he said "their were very fine flus on both sides" & then gave a Nazi salute.

    While injecting himself with bleach & chicken fat.

    But Trump haters gotta Trump hate - what can you do?

    Only an idiot scraping the very bottom of the barrel would try to make a thing of this, so I expect to see it all over the media and many threads here from the LW brain trust.

    Ironically, it -will- backfire. Lots of centrists are completely fed up with out of context media "gotchas" instead of straightforward, adult reporting and this one is no different.

    The average emotional and intellectual age may be 12 for LW, but not for other voting adults.

    Think of it as instant karma for 8 years of "Obama is a Muslim Terrorist" threads started by the Right Wingers on these boards ...

    I look forward to him bashing lib reporters that have lied about what he said.

    for example some guy posting here claimed he said he told people to inject themselves with bleach!

    Think of it as Democrat role models need to be better.

    Think of it as being 1000 times worse is nothing to be proud of.

    Think of it as the death of the Democrat Party.

    Or not.

    Whatevs.

    What he actually said was that he will take candy from babies, then inject them with bleach.

    Yeah. I suppose.

    There are still generations of people who still think that "Triumph of the Will" should have won the Best Picture at the Oscars, and they can't be talked out of it.

    I don't think that holding someone's feet to the fire for using the Pulpit of the Presidency to advocate Injecting Disinfectant is indicative of "Daddy Issues".

    Unless one attributes the D-Day Invasion to "Daddy Issues".

    To each their own.

    I find Trump's actions to be utterly indefensible.

    But I am also aware that there is a Hard-Core of about 1/3 of America who will follow him regardless.

    The fact that those people are exponentially over-represented online changes nothing in terms of the Overall Equation.

    Trump must be defeated by any (legal) means necessary.

    As always, even in the face of being outnumbered (at least 4 to 1) by PF's RW Pro-Trump Echo Chamber (facing constant incoming, with a 24/7 target on my back) I will continue to soldier on and fight the good fight.

    Carry on.:salute:

    Don't ever change, AJ! :)

    But isn't it more like 3 to 1? :chainsaw:

    And WWII?

    It WAS about daddy issues (among other things), and TOTW is a cinematic masterpiece, not unlike Birth of a Nation, though both obviously on the wrong side of history and morality.

    Trump?

    He's just another awful president, though the best of the century so far, hideous as that is to say.

    Less of an overt war criminal than Obama, though like Clinton, pushing monstrous sanctions which are crimes against humanity of a different kind.

    History will judge Trump far more kindly than the current hysteria would suggest, and the American Empire far more harshly.

    I would prefer that we see more eye to eye on both Trump and Biden, but trust that if by some miracle Tulsi or Bernie or Andy were the nominee, we'd both be pretty happy & on the same page in supporting them. :party:

    Not to mention umbrellagate the fiend. FOX really had their work cut out for them to come up with scandals during Obama. Trump makes it hard only in that the press has to choose each day which will make the news and which get lost on the cutting floor.

    Fast and furious
    IRS abuse
    Benghazi
    Bowe Bergdahl
    More travel bans under Obama
    Helped clinton bleach bit her electronics and granted immunity to those who helped
    Joe biden and Ukraine (if it were trump youd flip your ****)

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Obama_administration_controversies

    Along with countless others. It wasnt to hard to find a controversy on a powerful individual. Rep or dem they all do naughty things. You just dislike this one and like the other.

    He was putting you on and the left fell for it hook, line and sinker. He was proving the left will bite on anything.

    Sheeeit, Trump tops those every week, often more than once.

    But looking at your list.
    Fast and Furious. Yeah that was a **** up that occurred during his admin but he at least had the decency to admit it.
    IRS abuse was not sanctioned nor known by him and those involved fired.
    Benghazi. After dozens of Republican led investigations you'd think they'd have found something concrete by now wouldn't you?
    Bowe Bergdahl. Pretty hard to fault him for returning an American soldier, even a piece of work like him.
    Yes, Obama rejected more applicants than Trump only because they were rejected on individual basis' whereas Trump just doesn't allow hundreds of millions to even apply. That's really a stretch on your part to compare the two.

    Helped Clinton Bleachbit? Where on earth did that conspiracy come from?
    Joe biden and Ukraine I'm still waiting with anxious breath for Rudy's explosive report there.

    So as I said FOX has had to work hard to come up with scandals.

    Don't tell Trump but the area where the Ebola is active has had 5 cases of covid-19 and ALL have already recovered. Lord knows what he'll make of that.

    Admitting it does nothing it still happened this isnt AA. JFK didnt let the CIA attack America like obama shouldnt of let this happen and if the tables were turned youd attack trump whether he admitted it or not.

    Yes I'm sure obama knew nothing of the IRS scandal. It happened under him he gets the credit regardless like you guys with trump.

    People died at Benghazi under obama admin practices. They asked for back up even.

    Bowe - we gave 5 terrorists and money for 1 traitor tell me again about the art of the deal...

    Yet he still rejected more people.

    https://www.google.com/search?q=oba...droid-verizon&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

    His justice department granted immunity to those that actually did the bleach bit

    Your waiting for Rudy to release info yet you were attacking trump about russia and they also found nothing. The only reason trump is in the news is because trump wants to be in the news. I also provided a link to more of obama admin controversies in my last post.

    And now Trump seems to have cancelled his presser/rallys

    Maybe he has finally jumped the shark

    This was certainly a crazy moment...among many
