Oh, poor Trump. At least people aren't demanding to see his birth certificate.

Anyone who isn't a bootlicker: Trump's behaviour during these press meetings is stupid and irresponsible
Bootlickers: But they ASKED him QUESTIONS! What kind of sick bastard asks the godking questions?

My point is that he's in a position that is supposed to be questioned endlessly. He literally signed up for this and he's acting like a father who is being sassed by his teenage child.

You know I'm not a democrat right? I don't choose sides. The dems are not in charge like he is. I don't give a f*ck about what the media or dems are asking him. It's his responsibility to lead this country and all the dude cares about is his f*cking ego.

He's up to bat and striking out and you're f*cking complaining about the other teams pitching.

It's really suspect when you're more worried about reporters bullying the president than you are about the president presenting a revisionist history lesson while telling them he has total authority.

Everyone loves a good conspiracy.

Just because he talks **** doesn't mean he doesn't care. If he didn't care, he wouldn't be calling Cuomo in the middle of the night and asking how he could help. That tells me more than him doing the equivalent of a reddit ****post to the media about "I have absolute power over the states" when you know he's just ****ing with them. Show me something other than a "what if" and then we can all scream "authoritariansm111" together.

To be fair, I don't think Trump should be even doing the daily standups. He's not a great communicator for this kind of thing even if he "thinks" he means well. Just let Fauci do his thing. Or hell, bring Sean Spicer back. Just get off the stage unless you can discuss actual policy.

America has handled this worse than any country on earth up to this point. Culturally and politically. From Trump to our local city councils, to our lame ass neighbors who refuse to do something as easy as just staying home. Our petty selfishness and greed from the rich hiding away while talking about opening the economy that only serves them to the poor who can’t even keep six feet apart at the store. And what’s the ****ing motto? We’re in this together. We suck and we’re getting what we deserve. And our failure to even just stay the **** inside and have a government willing to enforce such a simple easy as ****ing **** directive doesn’t just put Americans at risk. By not doing our part we’re a global menace that is hell bent on keeping the virus spreading.

But OH, they are just trying to fear monger the virus so they can take total authoritarian control of the country and turn us into Nazi Germany. Next thing you know they'll take our guns just like Hitler did. Hitler totally took away guns from his citizens. That's a total fact not pulled from my ass.

Our response has been ****ing garbage, but your obsession with America dominating the field on garbage responses is just another incarnation of the unthinking nationalist.
