Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[Verdugo]

Is this a satire account?

Guy likes to talk about how all fiction should be idealised and every hero should be 100% pure. Meanwhile he fell for the Star Citizen scam and worships Trump.



I think he just has a thing for cults.

Is this a satire account?

We're here, in a thread, discussing how Joe Biden is going to barely win the election, if at all. It is most likely not a satire account, this is just the sad, pathetic state that America is in right now.

Even if Biden wins, we all lose. I am disgusted with my country.

No when Biden wins, we start to fix the country

He also watches dubs.

It is easy to dismiss his monstrous opinions as satire, but there are people who truly hold such insane beliefs.

[Orange Joe]

His expert negotiations that have kept America on top. He ended the Korean War and has been keeping down America's rivals, especially Russia and China.

When did this happen? Can you link the treaty they agreed to?

[Felya]

When did this happen? Can you link the treaty they agreed to?

Right after he beat Tiger Woods at golf and then dunked on Denis Rodman...

Looks like we're setting another new record in new cases again today. It's almost 104k with an hour or so left. Deaths are also significantly up again. I'll leave the rest for @Benggaul's nightly recap.

Just another day in the TRUMP SHITSHOW which will hopefully soon be over.

[Corvus]

So when Trump goes to jail, does he still get a SS detail?

Imagine how much in the bad books you would have to be to get that assignment.

Well that's one step too many

Yeah...it's going to be brutal.

The US has never broken 100k cases in one day before.

Another nasty double-whammy for Trump:

Air pollution connected to higher COVID-19 death rates

In a study published today in Science Advances, researchers from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found every increase of one microgram of fine-particle air pollutants at the county level was associated with an 11% increase in that county's COVID-19 mortality rate.

That result echoes earlier preprint research by the same team from the earliest weeks of the pandemic showing that air pollution was connected to worse outcomes from COVID-19.

What has Trump been gutting lately?

Big macs and taco bowls?

The only way Trump gets to 270 now is if he loses 50 lbs

Burn!

[Breccia]

Burn!

He might get to 270 if his sentences are consecutive.

[Benggaul]

Jeeeeezus.

108,389 new cases--yes, a new record--which is about 26.5k more than last Wednesday. I haven't checked, but I think that's the largest jump so far.

Texas: 10,201 new cases; 150 deaths
Illinois: 7,538 new cases; 55 deaths
Wisconsin: 5,935 new cases (new record); 54 deaths
California: 5,297 new cases; 67 deaths
Fuck Florida.
Michigan: 4,397 new cases (new record); 21 deaths
Ohio: 4,084 new cases; 43 deaths
Minnesota: 3,827 new cases (new record); 31 deaths
Indiana: 3,698 new cases (new record); 25 deaths
Tennessee: 3,445 new cases; 24 deaths
Missouri: 3,328 new cases; 44 deaths
Iowa: 3,120 new cases (new record); 23 deaths
Colorado: 2,928 new cases (new record); 22 deaths
Pennsylvania: 2,772 new cases; 41 deaths
Kansas: 2,772 new cases; 30 deaths
Georgia: 2,755 new cases; 43 deaths
New Jersey: 2,588 new cases; 23 deaths
North Carolina: 2,425 new cases; 50 deaths
New York: 2,158 new cases; 33 deaths
Utah: 2,110 new cases; 5 deaths
Alabama: 1,848 new cases; 19 deaths
Nebraska: 1,828 new cases (new record); 9 deaths
Massachusetts: 1,714 new cases; 27 deaths
Kentucky: 1,630 new cases; 11 deaths
Washington: 1,425 new cases; 20 deaths
Arkansas: 1,293 new cases; 23 deaths
Idaho: 1,290 new cases (new record); 17 deaths (tied record)
Oklahoma: 1,246 new cases; 17 deaths
Virginia: 1,157 new cases; 11 deaths
North Dakota: 1,114 new cases; 12 deaths
Nevada: 1,068 new cases; 7 deaths
New Mexico: 1,011 new cases; 14 deaths (new record)
Maryland: 1,000 new cases; 10 deaths

If today is anything to go by, this week is going to be awful. 110k is almost a certainty at this stage and I wouldn't be surprised to see the US hit 120k on Friday. This means the US will also hit 10 million cases by the weekend--WAY earlier than I expected (I predicted mid to late November). Many new records and near-misses. Maryland is on there for the first time since the July surge. New Jersey is hitting numbers they haven't seen since early May. The map signifying "uncontrolled spread" in the US is redder than Jr's. map of what he thinks are Trump voters (which, apparently, contained the Black Sea?). Texas is back up to 10k for the first time since the July outbreak and doesn't look to be slowing down. Their record is around 13k and it won't take much of a push for them to break it. Good luck, @Crissi.

There's no sugarcoating it--this is fucking irresponsible. Downplaying the pandemic is wrong. And bad. There should be a new, stronger word for downplaying it. Like badwrong. Or badong. Yes, downplaying the pandemic is badong. From this moment I will stand for the opposite of downplaying it...gnorwdab.

1,201 deaths is a little over 150 more than last Wednesday. The total is now 239,829. Given that we can expect weekly deaths to increase for a while now I don't think 300k by the end of the year is out of the realm of possibility. Texas topped the list again, but 36 other states had 2-digit death totals.

JHead. Hits. Keyboard.

Deaths have been steadily increasing since mid-Oct.

[swiftowner]

Jeeeeezus.

108,389 new cases

So yeah... I said we might flirt with 120k this week, but looks like that was conservative, looks like we might pull a Trump and grab it by the... jokes aside, this fucking bad for a Wednesday. I had to check my phone to make sure this wasn’t actually Thursday since we have seen high record spikes on A Thursday followed by a higher spike on Friday.

[Breccia]

Trump keeps lying.

Overall in 2016, there were 252,574 military absentee ballots counted by all the states; and 382,896 absentee ballots from U.S. citizens overseas, according to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission.

[Mormolyce]

And this is really one of the biggest condemnations of Trump you can find. Any halfwit incumbent could have used a national disaster to ride the wave of nationalist sentiment to reelection in a landslide.

Yep, an incumbent during a national emergency is normally the strongest position a candidate could possibly have.

But in this case, said incumbent is largely responsible for the failure to contain the emergency, and due to the same sloppiness, a personal victim of it.

[Nakuul]

Kind of you to be the Toddler-in-Chief's favorite type of supporter. Uneducated and easily swayed by bullshit.
