Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Benggaul]

They...they've nicknamed Trump's campaign "Death Star". Do they have ANY idea what that implies? Good fucking grief Trump hires the WORST people...

Do they seriously not know that the Death Star was the tool of the baddies that was ultimately a source of hubris that destroyed them all?
And do they REALLY want something named "Death" attached to their campaign amidst a pandemic that's going to kill at least 100k Americans?

[Breccia]

I also hope this sends Trump into total germaphobe panic mode and he's too distracted to twitter rage more.

Trump insists that wearing a mask would send the wrong message.

You know what else would send the wrong message?

Dying.

Besides everything else that would do, imagine when Trump "go out there and huff bleach and return to work, what do you have to lose?" gets sick or dies while not obeying his own CDC's and his own task force's guidelines.

"It's safe (cough) to go (cough) back...to...work...." <bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep>

That would destroy his message in its entirely. It would reverse it. The healthiest person to ever run for President, felled by the flu? What would the rabid fanbase do? Because I think their illusion would be shattered so hard, that unemployment would spike even higher.

The GOP should fear this more than any other American, of course. Besides proving they can't handle literally anything, Pence has the charisma of a potted plant and couldn't beat, well, anyone even under normal times. Running after Trump gets sick and dies? How many times will Biden say "Didn't Trump put you in charge of the task force?" in each debate? Forty-six? Maybe two more, just to prove Pence is a Tool.

There is no good result for the USA if Trump gets sick and dies. But for the Party of Trump, it would turn the slow death spiral into a hydrolic-assisted flush.

After 4 years, you should know how the fanbase will react. He will have been murdered by Democrats/immigrants/Chyna, and will be forever a martyr. it doesn't matter what they have to invent to make that a reality. You keep hoping some event will force them to return to reality, but their reality is fundamentally different then yours, because they have a completely different information stream then you do.

Information stream is a big word for post-truth propaganda grifters.

"Obey or we'll blow up your planet"

Sounds like trump ideology to me.

[Breccia]

The problem with crying wolf isn't just that real wolves show up. It's that people stop asking you to tend the sheep.

Diana Andrade has accused Fauci of sexual assault. She is now recanting and claims she was paid by the rabid fanbase.

Now here's the thing: maybe she was telling the truth the first time. Maybe she was telling the truth the second time. Maybe neither. But w--

"She recorded the call."

...what?

"Yeah, the guy who paid her said he didn't care if 400,000 people died. She got disgusted and recanted."

...okay. Probably telling the truth the second time.

But in any event, after tactics like this failed on Mueller and Fauci and who knows which others I've missed, you're out of weapons to use. I know Team Trump keeps trying the "everyone else does it" defense, but when you're caught fabricating it, that backfires. At least Trump personally seems to be avoiding the Biden sexual assault claims that, well, Biden asked the Senate secretary to hand over everything so I'm siding with him on this one, at least until the evidence changes.

Which will leave Trump the only assaulter left. Unless it goes to the Supreme Court. Then there's two again.

You made me laugh. I first thought you meant it it was critics of Trump that were calling it Death Star to ridicule it. Once I realized it was the name the organization picked for itself... well I can't stop laughing. Kind of a morbid laughter but at least its laughter.

So, when does someone in the US just outright state that they want the elderly and vulnerable to get sick and die?

The rallying cry seems to be "But Sweden!"

One, pretty sure Sweden has universal health care. And by "pretty sure" I mean "here is the link"

Two, Sweden has a higher proportional death count than any of their neighbors, who are not as open. (Not the worst in EUrope, but higher than Finland and Norway by leagues) This is not a model the US can afford to follow -- we're not exactly doing a great job ourselves.

Why am I not remotely surprised that Wohl and Burkman are behind this one too.

I still can't believe they haven't broken any laws yet. Before they were just pathetic and casually disgusting, now they're truly the scum of the earth based on their comments. May they both suffer from endless nightmares of their teeth rotting and falling out of their head, and may they have to go in for annual root canals for the rest of their lives.

Behind what, exactly?

Oh, didn't realize I didn't quote Breccia. His article linked above - https://www.rawstory.com/2020/05/wom..._yFTpLfexZv1-w

That doesn't surprise me at all.

Thanks for the story.

Trump's Navy valet has tested positive. Hope he's alright, and I also hope this sends Trump into total germaphobe panic mode and he's too distracted to twitter rage more.

Sucks for the valet. But hope he passed it on to Trump. Just so the prick can feel first-hand the suffering of the people he's supposed to represent but has so far treated like shit.

[Odinfrost]

Can we throw Wohl permanently in jail now without access to social media or long distance communications? Cause this man keeps getting more and more extreme.

[Kaleredar]

I don’t want trump to get it.

Why? Because then, after having beaten it, people will think “oh he’s so strong, leading the nation while sick!” and “trump got sick too! He’s suffering just as much as the rest of us!” And “wow he’s so strong and brave, he was able to beat the virus the media was saying was deadly!”

Basically, him contracting the illness would only humanize him in the eyes of voters and serve as a temporary excuse for his normal complete lack of leadership.

AP got a leaked copy of the CDC Guidance on re-opening the economy. Leaked, because the Trump administration is apparently burying it. This would normally be a document released to the public, but the information doesn't line up with the stories from Team Trump.

Daily Beast has the guidance in full.

If that were to happen, I'd feel bad for the coronavirus. As nasty and disgusting as the virus is, it's got nothing on him.

[Bodonius]

Still not much to complain about?

Yeah, sorry for not providing a link, but I didn't feel like linking Trump's campaign people. I'm sure it's widely available knowledge in various news sources by now.

Which would almost certainly result in a bunch of the rabid fanbase ignoring health guidelines (even Trump's), running into packed crowds, getting sick and killing their family members. Nobody wants to see a spike in the death count.
