    1. Unfortunately it’s true. I always thought Americans are the smarter ones being one of the world greatest nation, but Trump Presidency highlighted the stupidity and ignorance of almost half of the population. No need for external forces, We’re killing ourselves with a liar president

    1. Funny T-Shirts what brand of Tshirt, 100 % cotton, 35% poly? Are they pin registered for all color layers to line up?

    1. Haven’t you heard: irony is dead. First casualty of this bunch of mental defectives. First of a great, great many.

    2. If it’s any consolation Trump has lost all the confidence of his own military leadership and they very well might not obey his orders if they’re incompetent or dangerous enough.

    3. @Bobby Smith
      Haha, they will obey, only “former” officials speak out and very few of them.
      The US military happily used nuclear weapons on mostly old men, women and children in 1945. They happily used chemical weapons on anyone and everyone in Vietnam and Cambodia. They lied to start a war in Iraq.
      Don’t think they won’t turn on the American people if ordered to.

  1. Trump is the type of sea Captain that would quietly abandon a sinking ship all  by himself, and leave everyone else on board to go down with the ship, because he “didn’t want to cause a panic.”

    Trump: “I wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create a panic.”

    Trump’s whole campaign is based on causing panic and mass hysteria. He’s basically told his base that the worst parts of Revelations will come true if he’s not reelected. But yet he claims he doesn’t want to create a panic.😞Hmmm..

    Allan Lichtman, the historian known for accurately predicting presidential elections, said that Trump’s downplaying of the coronavirus pandemic will be remembered as “the greatest dereliction of duty” in presidential history.

  2. t’rump: “Many people are saying masks don’t work.”
    George: “Who? Who are these people?”
    t’rump: “Uhh, umm, waiters! Yeah, they’re all saying that.”
    Waiters: “No we’re not. Masks are the only way we’re able to work safely.”
    t’rump: ” 😫😕😢 “

    1. Before Google, we asked Mr. Owl all our pressing questions. Behold, 3 licks to the center of a tootsie roll pop. Now we ask of you…tRump or Medical expert?

  3. For the first time ever, the prestigious journal “Scientific American” has endorsed a candidate for president: Joe Biden. It did so because, it says, “Donald Trump has badly damaged the U.S. and its people — because he rejects evidence and science.”

  4. “My authority is total and I take no responsibility at all” – words muttered by an EPIC FAILURE and COMPROMISED asset who REFUSES to PROTECT the American People.

  5. Fox is bad for Democracy and America, banned in many countries, including the UK, it’s time to act and stop the murderous Murdochs.

    1. The fox is watching the white house, and letting liars and thieves run amuck and calling it good!
      It’s NOT!!!
      Thanks to Fox, I don’t believe in free speech ANYMORE!!!

  6. On Jan. 27th, Joe Biden sounded the alarm about a global pandemic in an op-ed in USA Today. By end of January, 8 cases of the virus were confirmed in the U.S., with 100’s more likely incubating undetected.

    Trump apologists claim the outcome would’ve been the same under any other POTUS (i.e. Biden). Wrong.

    Biden would’ve utilized the expertise available in the pandemic response office set up by Obama to proactively deal with this very situation (an office that Trump disbanded in a fit of pettiness).
    With a response team already in place, the federal government would’ve responded in early January, perhaps even earlier, in a proactive effort to minimize the problem AHEAD OF TIME, BEFORE it grew into a bigger crisis (as opposed to Trump’s reactive, ad-hoc approach).

    In a Biden administration, there’d be no interference or shadow policy run by unqualified family members and their CEO college buddies. Instead, public health and medical experts would be in charge. Their authority and expertise, which Biden would’ve deferred to, would’ve fast tracked mass testing and contact tracing capabilities….plus PPE and medical supply production … all of which would’ve enabled an earlier and more robust public health defense on a national level.

    Instead, we have a POTUS who held rallies, played golf, and did his “best” to hide and dismiss warnings by intelligences agencies and the CDC in an idiotic, selfish attempt to keep numbers artificially low, prop up the stock market and protect his re-election chances.

    Trump didn’t cause the virus and there’s certainly enough blame to go around. But with this kind of threat, early detection and prevention on a federal level was crucial to not just containing the virus, but also limiting its damage to the economy. Things didn’t have to get this bad, but they did. That’s on Trump.

    1. “no interference or shadow policy” … now that funny… even with a teleprompter put in place by joes handlers, he still opens his mouth and inserts foot

  7. This administration et al clearly wants Americans to die. So far, 200,000 & counting. Vote: our lives depend on it, literally. #voteblue2020 #bidenharris

  8. Trump to California…”It’ll cool down, it’ll get cold again, just wait and see. Science doesn’t know”. Trump to America on many occasions….”Slow down the testing. It’ll just disappear like a miracle.” What will be left of this country if he’s president for FOUR MORE YEARS?

  9. Trump is intentionally misleading people… Getting people killed… Unfit for office… Trump should resign or 25 th Amendment…Unaceptable behaviour….

    1. To Fox and Friends Trolls:

      🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸GOD BLESS AMERIKA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
      People are dying to re-elect
      TRUMP ❤️ PENCE 2020
