  1. I think he prefers “truthful hyperbole"
  2. Evidently up to $360 million of the $1.5 billion raised by trump were directed through limited liability companies to conceal what the money was actually used for. 'Many of the specifics of Mr. Trump's spending are opaque; since 2017, the campaign and the R.N.C. have routed $227 million through a single limited liability company linked to Trump campaign officials. That firm, American Made Media Consultants, has been used to place television and digital ads and was the subject of a recent Federal Election Commission complaint arguing it was used to disguise the final destination of spending, which has included paychecks to Lara Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle, the partners of Mr. Trump's two adult sons. Millions more followed to firms tied to R.N.C. and Trump-linked officials, including more than $39 million to two firms, Parscale Strategy LLC and Giles-Parscale, controlled by Mr. Parscale since the beginning of 2017.... the trump GOP cash machine spent ""Under Mr. Parscale, more than $350 million — almost half of the $800 million spent — went to fund-raising operations, as no expense was spared in finding new donors online," Nearly $100,000 spent on copies of Donald Trump Jr.'s book “Triggered,” which helped propel it to the top of the New York Times bestsellers list. — Over $7.4 million spent at Trump-branevada nded properties since 2017. — At least $35.9 million spent on Trump merchandise. "President Donald Trump’s campaign is secretly paying one Trump son’s wife and another one’s girlfriend $180,000 a year each through the campaign manager’s private company, according to top Republicans with knowledge of the payments. Kimberly Guilfoyle, the girlfriend of eldest son Donald Trump Jr., and Lara Trump, wife of middle son Eric Trump, are each receiving $15,000 a month, according to two GOP sources who are informal White House advisers and who spoke on condition of anonymity. They were unsure when the payments began but say they are being made by campaign manager Bradley Parscale through his company rather than directly by either the campaign or the party in order to avoid public reporting requirements. “I can pay them however I want to pay them,” Parscale told HuffPost on Friday, but then declined to comment any further."
  3. Sorry, you're wrong its FOX news. When you don't watch any other news channel, don't subscribe to the local newspaper their is no cognitive dissonance. I'd guess "President Donald Trump reportedly walked out of his interview with 60 Minutes’ Lesley Stahl on Tuesday, according to CNN White House Correspondent Kaitlan Collins. “Apparently there was some drama while President Trump was taping his 60 Minutes interview today,” Collins tweeted, adding that the president “abruptly ended his solo." Was all about somebody confronting his lies. So on the week prior to the election he had an opportunity to speak to Americans for ten minutes on a popular news show for seniors. Instead a tantrum results then he tweets about her not wearing a mask( pure vindictive theater).
  4. It seems as if trump is more concerned with spending a day in a Chinese prison than he is a US prison. "Trump International Hotels Management L.L.C., which the tax records show paid $188,561 in taxes in China while pursuing licensing deals there from 2013 to 2015." In the US nothing, zip.
  5. For all the suckers donating to the GOP. Perhaps you have been wondering how trump managed to piss away $1.5 BILLION dollars since the start of 2019. How he manages to now have only $63 million left and has been cancelling TV ad buys like a crack addict selling everything they own. Well there were the personal legal fees that he used campaign donations for. "The Trump campaign recently sued a Wisconsin TV station for airing an ad from Democratic super PAC Priorities USA, arguing that it misrepresents the president’s statements on the coronavirus outbreak. The TV station asked the court to dismiss the lawsuit, calling it “speech-chilling litigation.” "There are also multiple former aides who have been hired by the Trump campaign or the Republican National Committee after leaving the White House. Omarosa Manigault Newman claims that when she left the administration, she was offered a $15,000-a-month no-show job to keep her happy and quiet. ...other former White House aides have taken a similar path, including a former bodyguard, Keith Schiller, and a body man, John McEntee, who was fired amid a fraud investigation but, because irony is dead, has since returned as head of personnel for the White House.... Some costs come from sops to the president’s fragile ego. The campaign has spent more than $1 million on ads in the District of Columbia so that Trump will see them, even though neither D.C. nor Virginia nor Maryland is likely competitive in November. It also shelled out $11 million for Super Bowl ads in order to go toe-to-toe with Michael Bloomberg." He spent tens of millions at his own business, $100k to buy magnetic pouches so WH insiders couldn't use their cell phones to record his lies. On and on. The total One billion four hundred and forty million dollars. You all should be so happy for your donations to trump and the GOP.

    covid-19

    Well that might be normal but in these matters the US had the "greatest negotiator of all time" at work in the negotiations. "Federal health officials and Gilead Sciences have settled on priority distribution to Americans — and nonnegotiable pricing." "Hospitals will receive the product shipped by AmerisourceBergen and will pay no more than Gilead’s Wholesale Acquisition Price (WAC), which amounts to approximately $3,200 per treatment course. " Dear Secretary Alex Azar: "regarding the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHSor the Department) recent announcement that “President Trump has struck an amazing deal” for a large supply of remdesivir, an antiviral drug that has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing recovery time for patients hospitalized with COVID-19, for the American people.1Remdesivir has the potential to benefit Americans hospitalized byCOVID-19, but it appears that the Department acquired its supply by allowing Gilead Sciences, the drug’s manufacturer, to charge American health insurers the highest price in the world2—representing windfall revenues of up to almost half a billion dollars for the company, paid for in whole or in part by increased premiums for American families3—despite having other options available to expand remdesivir access in the U.S, and despite the fact that American taxpayers spent over $70 million to help develop and test the drug.... It appears, however, that the Department acquired its supply of remdesivir at an exorbitant cost. According to the Department’s announcement, “hospitals will receive the product...and will pay no more than Gilead’s Wholesale Acquisition Price (WAC), which amounts to approximately $3,200 per treatment course.”10The same day that HHS made its announcement, Gilead publicized its global pricing system, indicating that governments of other developed countries will be paying $2,340 for a treatment course.11In other words, America’s private health insurers—and,ultimately, all families and businesses that pay for these costs via health insurance premiums—will be paying $860 more than governments in other countries will pay." I'll say it anyway, thanks trump! You're stupidity and negotiating skills helped subsidize the rest of the world, again.
  7. "The Vietnam War... killed 58,220 American soldiers and wounded 153,303 more...Basing on the current dollar value, the Vietnam War cost the equivalent of about $1 trillion." Win for trump. $6 trillion wasted during his presidency. "The political scientists surveyed in the Brookings Institution report found Donald Trump — seen here in 2017, shortly after he took office — to be America's the most polarizing president by a wide margin. Trump's pursuit of "fractious policies," including travel bans, were cited as fueling the divisiveness. " Ranked #1 of all time. Once again trump wins.
  8. Its difficult to say which of these ideas is the best. Outstanding. You did omit the balance of the trump crime family. Never forget Ivanka, Don Jr. and Eric.
  9. Sorry wrong again!. From Gallup Poll, 07/27/20, "The number of Americans who identify themselves as conservatives has decreased over the first half of the year,...The number of Americans who described themselves as liberal, however, has increased fairly steadily in the same time period, according to the survey firm. The new poll found 26 percent of respondents said they identify as liberal, which is a 4-point increase since 22 percent The number of Americans who identify as moderate has remained fairly steady, with 36 percent of respondents identifying as moderate in May and June as well as March and April, a 2-point increase since January and February, based on Gallup’s polling. ... The decline in self-identified conservatism in the first half of the year was more pronounced among adults in upper-income households. The survey found an 11-point decline among Americans in households with an income of $100,000 or higher, dropping from 40 percent identifying as conservative to just 29 percent. " Once again trumpaconomics driving conservatives away from the GOP like clap in a whorehouse.

    covid-19

    So for the medical experts here. Would there be any improved immune response to taking multiple vaccines once they become available? Naturally over some period of time. In other news: Remdesivir Fails to Prevent Covid-19 Deaths in Huge Trial "Remdesivir, the only antiviral drug authorized for treatment of Covid-19 in the United States, fails to prevent deaths among patients, according to a study of more than 11,000 people in 30 countries sponsored by the World Health Organization. The drug was granted emergency authorization by the Food and Drug Administration on May 1 after a trial by the National Institutes of Health found that remdesivir modestly reduced the time to recovery in hospitalized patients. President Trump received the antiviral after he began showing symptoms earlier this month.... The antiviral has been administered to thousands of patients since its emergency authorization. The drug costs $3,120 per treatment course for patients with private insurance in the United States."
  11. FOX- Con job Just like the network.
  12. Someone cares, only 157 countries left to go and trump can make America #1
  13. Fox News Channel's Juan Williams wrote a blistering editorial against trump in The Hill. I guess even the FOX rats recognize a forty five degree list of the deck as the ship goes down.
  14. How Did Hunter Biden’s Laptop Allegedly Go from a Repair Shop in Delaware to the New York Post? above from Snopes.
  15. Saudi ... thats it. trump would love Saudi life. The faux gold decors.No real law but the law of money and the royal family. He'd convert to Islam in a heartbeat, just like he's a christian now. Then multiple wives so he could pussy grab with both hands. Damn you're a genius Jerry.
  16. Because at the heart of these so called "true believers" is a thief and a killer who is only interested in himself. Those not exposed to such luciferian thinking would say "welcome friend", come and enjoy peace and a meal with us".

    covid-19

    Yet the obese, 74 year old, Big Mac munching, disinformation spreader still walks. Just more proof there is no god.
  18. Is there some sort of bromance going on that i wasn't told about?
  19. So...when did it all change?.... When was the epiphany? Your posts on SC make such an dramatic political philosophical manifestation difficult to ascertain.
  20. Trump says he may leave the U.S. if he loses to Biden Las Vegas has the odds on Russia as the future home of the trump crime family. Kim has said there is no room in N. Korea for two outsize ego's.
  21. trumponomics. US debt when trump took office $19.573 trillion At end of 2020 est $25.800 trillion. So a increase of $6.227 trillion for the US trump debacle. Or in other terms $19,000 for every man woman and child for the four years of trump. Or for evangelicals $2.075,666 trillion for each SC appointment. Oh!... and their souls forfeit to Lucifer of course.
  22. What the "pussy grabber" in Chief for America is flawed? "Most Europeans and Latin Americans have little confidence in the U.S. president to do the right thing regarding world affairs. This includes only 13% of adults in Germany and 8% in Mexico....Only around three-in-ten express confidence in Trump (29%) – similar to the share who voice confidence in Chinese President Xi Jinping (28%). However, the share of people who express no confidence in Trump is higher (64%) than it is for all of the other world leaders asked about." "69% of the 900 registered voters polled in the September NBC News/Wall Street Journal public opinion poll said they do not like Trump personally, regardless of their feelings about his policies." Just 5% of Europeans trust Trump, damning poll finds."A report by the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) found that the US president is unanimously seen as “toxic” by America’s closest ally."
  23. You have trump's talking points down to a T. Remember US President Donald Trump has said he is ending negotiations over a Covid-19 relief bill, and will only resume talks after the election.. On Oct. 7th Middle East peace? The peace is supposed to be between the Palestinians and Israel. Not between Israel and a couple Arab countries that don't even border the conflict. You and trump seem to think a peace plan that doesn't involve one of the parties is worth the paper its printed on. It's entire rationale is to counter Iranian influence, nothing more. Benghazi, e-mails, keep drinking the kool-aid. You probably even imagine trump negotiated a successful trade deal with China after winning the trade war. trump counts on FOX and his enablers to keep his cult followers ignorant.
