Hey remember when Trump lifted aluminium tariffs against C anada, the ones he himself imposed, when they agreed to sign NAFTA 1.0.0.2?
He just put them back.
Oh look, Trump didn't pay what he was contractually obligated. I wonder what would happen if, say, Canada just stopped following NAFTA 1.0.0.2 entirely? I mean, they clearly have no obligation to do so. Wouldn't that be yet another Trump failure?

So the Pew Research Center's latest poll says the majority of Americans think states re-opened too quickly.
"So, what, 52%? 53%?"
69%.
"...isn't the rabid fanbase about thirty per--"
Yes.
Similarly high values (60-75 percent) said (a) the economy would be better if we focused on blocking the virus first and foremost, and (b) that basically other industrialized countries were doing a better job, and (c) that the increase in cases is not due to the increase in testing alone, but actually more people really being sick.
Well, the gaffe machine was at it again today. No not Joe Biden. Trump pronounces Thailand as "Thigh-land" in speech:

A collection of (fake) nobodies with like 1,600 followers combined. The fact that FB is doing this at all should be a warning to everyone who reposts from "see that guy hates Biden and Obama and he's black no I don't know him no we've never met" posters desperate to find people who agree with them to the point of siding with Russian bots and, apparently, Romanians pretending to be Americans.

In the ongoing effort to predict and stay ahead of possible problems, Pelosi and Schumer demand the postmaster general reverse its staff/budget cuts before everyone in the US mails their vote.
"We're making sure everyone knows the upcoming shitshow is Trump's personal doing," they didn't say but I'm pretending they did. "The more people see the tricks Trump is trying, the fewer of them that will work."

Carroll's lawsuit can continue slowly moving forward. Wonder if she'll get the DNA.A New York judge knocked down President Donald Trump's bid to delay a lawsuit from a woman who accused him of rape, ruling in a decision released Thursday that the presidency doesn't shield him from the case.
Pointing to a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that the president isn't immune from a New York prosecutor's criminal investigation, Manhattan judge Verna Saunders said the same principle applies to E. Jean Carroll's defamation suit, in which Trump's lawyers have argued that the Constitution bars presidents from being dragged into lawsuits in state courts.
“No, it does not,” Saunders wrote.
Wait’ll you look into Georgia...

Photo Of Paulding Students Packed Into Hallway Goes Viral
DALLAS, GA — Photos of maskless students packed into a hallway at North Paulding High School sparked nationwide outrage Tuesday after they went viral.
"There is no question that the photo does not look good," Paulding superintendent Brian Otott wrote in an email Tuesday to parents. "I can understand if your first reaction was one of concern."
WSB-TV in Atlanta confirmed that the photo was taken at dismissal time Monday by a 10th grader. Students are crowded next to each other, and most aren't wearing masks.
Otott wrote in the letter that the photo was being taken out of context to "criticize our school reopening efforts.
Still, Otott said he won't mandate masks.
"Wearing a mask is a personal choice and there is no practical way to enforce a mandate to wear them," Otott wrote. "What we will do is continue to strongly encourage all students and staff to wear masks."
somehow this fucking school can mandate that all kids wear pants....wear shirts.....not run around naked.....but mask....naaaahhh
Buh Byeeeeeeeeeeee !!
