    1. @Janet Clough No we won’t because sniffy already sold us too China he and B rock has already figured this out

  1. Trump Talk Translated:
    “Many People have told me” = Voices inside my head
    “A lot of people don’t know” = I just learned
    “Believe me” = I just lied
    “In Fact” = I’m about to lie
    “He’s a great guy” = I will deny ever knowing this person after they begin to tell the truth about me
    “MAGA” = Making my pockets fatter off the American tax payers
    “Nobody knew” = Everyone knew except me
    “Huge” = moderate to below average in size
    “Loser” = someone who makes me feel inferior due to their talent or accomplishments
    “Policy Briefing” = Watching Fox News
    “Liar” = Someone who tells the truth about me
    “Fake News” = Real news

    1. All spot on! Also…
      “Strongly” = Said by someone with dirt on me
      “Very strongly” = And they might give me money
      “Very powerfully” = See, I know a big word, too!

    2. Brilliant! May I add:
      “What a terrible question!”= you’ve raised something that highlights my weakness and incompetence and for which I have no answer so I shall now attack you and your paper or news channel.

  2. Trump is now in a full psychotic event. He is fully disconnected from reality and this is killing Americans.

    1. @Geoff Campbell I agree with you. Donald Trump’s disastrous Presidency is a learning experience. However, I voted for Clinton. 😉

    2. Michael O’Day, sadly I was just a very average rhythm guitarist in a garage band that went nowhere. Had a lot of fun though.

    3. @Geoff Campbell Geoff loved The Police in ’81 so when I heard he got the Tour gig on STINGS solo tour I thought, “Dream Gig”.
      About like if Steve Tyler called you up, “Hey G, Brad Whitford just quit.” Dude!!!

    1. The religious, who mainly put him in place, couldn’t see what the rest of us saw originally which was and is a transparent con man; a pathological liar. This was all going to happen. They said he’d be as bad as Nixon; he’s much worse; Nixon tried to hide his crookedness but Trump doesn’t seem to care. His major problem is that today with mass communications he can be clearly seen to be lying and contradicting his lies; all witnessed on people’s screens; in the past he could have said and done anything with no one recording; now everything is recorded and captured and revealed.

    2. @Justin Forbis it’s called the Trump Virus because it came from China in January. 7 months and 160,000 Americans dead is Trump’s fault, not China. He just stated he doesn’t care about anyone who died. “it is what it is.”

    1. @Julia Sutton Three million Americans die every year from all causes. The China flu is just one more cause.

    2. @Julia Sutton
      Don’t even try to reason with these treasonous racist Deplorable Confederate Evangelicals. Humanity despises their very existence. Just keep on going until the start of 2021 when we can start gathering these treasonous scum in 1 or 2 of their backward states and build a tall wall around them to safeguard humanity. I’ve heard they love tall walls. SOON!!!

    1. @C W You must be one wealthy white dude. That’s who’s benefitting from this criminal administration. Either that or you’re one dumb bunny. He loves dumb people…his people…😂

    1. @Alex Hotz I doubt that as Hillary received 3 million more votes then The President and fewer than 40% of all Registered Voters actually Vote. I think TRUMP is in 2020.

    2. @Michael O’Day All 3 million from one State, hence the electoral college being vital for states to be represented. Hope you’re right, as the alternative is heinous.

    3. The idiots will be removed in November. Pelozi, Schitt, Schittmer, all will be sent packing by their respective districts. We’ve had enough from the party of hate, division, riots, lies, murder, and delusion. Vote straight RED in November and MAGA!

    1. @Albert: he is always trying to make Americans look a different way. Nothing to see here! He is a 🤡

  3. We’re seeing a leveling off because we have changed how we count cases and deaths. tRump is cooking the books again, just as he does in business.

    1. No, it’s because asymptomatic and false results have increased, yet the corporate media want you to believe otherwise…and you do.

  4. Trump on Covid: “We’ve done as well as any country”. What, in deaths?
    What a disaster of a human Trump is.

    1. @Julie Diorio
      Just because people like you are confused and don’t listen doesn’t mean President Trump is a liar! LOL

    2. @C W Dementia Joe? After that trainwreck YOUR PRESIDENT displayed bragging about passing a dementia test? Five words for you; person, woman, man, camera, tv. The five most brilliant words any president has ever spoken in public. THAT WAS HILARIOUS!

    3. @C W I didn’t vote a morally bankrupt reality tv show host into the most powerful office on earth, you did. November is going to be tragic for your loathsome soul.

    4. @J E He can brag, he got it right… Don Lemon thought it was a rhino, and Biden’s answer was “tuesday”.

    1. Us lifelong Democrats are Voting TRUMP for different reasons then TRUMP Supporters. One reason is that
      HCQ is a proven virus cure and a stabilized, FDA APPROVED Drug. Another was that
      tnnhe Race Riots were allowed by guilt stricken Liberals unable to defend America against a Cultural Coup d’etat.
      And let’s face it, Biden inspires no one and he is too compromised to pick a Veep.
      So us Dems who never cared much for Pop Icon, “The Donald” are “🇺🇸 20 TRUMP 20 🇺🇸”.
      We didn’t leave the Left, they left us to kneel, Sing subversive Anthems and wash feet.

    2. @John Moss I read Marx. That was then and this is 2020. Soyviet Schtick and Commie Chic is all that you GuLiberals have left? That and hating The President.
      That’s Why THE TRUMP TRAIN DON’T STOP! “Brey” 🇺🇸

    1. Or shut down the testing for COVID-19, and stop counting the death, then we will have 0 confirmed cased and 0 death in the following months☺️

    1. @Beanos come on man I will let you ride with me on the Trump Train I can see why you’re discouraged I’m am also disappointed in America with all that’s going on communist are attempting to overthrow America from within and we are allowing this to happen …anyway you look at it TRUMP is the only thing we have to stop this China Joe will roll over in a heartbeat and you know this

    2. @Freddy Eason Trump is letting children go back to school, and doesn’t care for the 156,000 people that have died. He thinks the virus is getting better when it’s getting worse every day. You lot are just completely ignoring this virus, thinking it will just go away. Trump’s apathy towards this virus is the core reason I don’t vote for him. Trump shows time and time again his incompetence in leading this country. You didn’t even watch the video, did you? Watch it thoroughly, and see if your view on him changes.

  5. Trump does have a National Strategy: Lie, Lie, Exagerate, Feel sorry for Himself, Run to the WH BUNKER, Attack Obama and Hillary and then say “We are in Great Shape..”

    1. I live here too. I love this country, and I hope the opportunity comes for me to help this country be great again.
