    Trump is many things, but 'silenced' is not one of them. He still enjoys his 1A rights.

    So, not cancelled then.

    Is he in a safe space now?

    Looks like Johnson was making a thinly veiled reference to trumps flatulence problem:

    "Boris Johnson says working with Joe Biden is 'breath of fresh air'"

    Trump still robbing is small donors

    Ironically he also argued recently we should all just go back to paper everything to combat ransomware (ie. Let the hackers frustrate the US back into the Stone Age, lol)

    It's like he's back in power again.

    Another day, another scandal.

    This should be filed under the “even Richard Nixon didn’t do this” category of stuff trump did. Nixon did some bad stuff but he never did what we now know William Barr did under the direction to Donald Trump.

    I used to really enjoy Harris interrogating people. The way she got Amy Coney Barrett to admit climate change was a political issue without actually asking her if it was as such was absolute gold

    No, no he wasn't..

    Did you read the article?

    He was pushing Hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic - e.g. Take it to ward off getting Covid etc.

    The article confirms what was always the story with it - People with extreme symptoms ,those already in Intensive care etc. saw improvements in recovery.

    Trump did what Trump does , he half heard something and came to a completely different conclusion.

    Taking Hydroxychloroquine while healthy or even while suffering mild to moderate symptoms has absolutely ZERO positive impact on your likelihood of catching/recovering from Covid.

    Even the article casts doubt on those attempting to link the study with Trumps pushing of the drug.

    And it's an article in the Daily Mail!!!

    Sample size of 255 patients...I wouldn't get too excited yet. Also not peer reviewed.

    I'm guessing you mean compared to last week when he was caught wearing an incontinence device.

    Any week he is not in jail, it is a miraculous week.

    How does any of that reduce the terrible job he did in trying to protect the lives of those living in the US. His sole mode seemed to be to try to blame everyone else whilst ignoring actually doing anything about it.

    500K people died because he wasn't bothered to do his actual job. More than died in the whole of WWII. Simpy because he was both incompetent, but also unable to even acknowledge that and let others actually deal with it. When he did get out of the way, like he did with Operation Warpspeed, real Americans, real people with actual talent, got things done that made things better for everyone.

    Who cares if its a good week for Trump. He left a trail of death and devestation across the nation, ripping families apart and tearing people away from thier loved ones.

    Had he shown even a bit of the energy he puts into whining about the election results into protecting the people he swore to serve then there would be many thousands of people still alive and many mulitples of that not facing life without loved ones.

    See we're back to people not reading past the headlines and running away from questions.

    Have to hand it to them for consistency.

    So, him making claims without supporting evidence is not him being proven right.... In fact, a president speculating on anything without supporting evidence is incredibly dangerous. To use an example, his still unproven claim that it could be used as a preventative hit those with arthritis. It's a proven treatment for that but shortages occurred as a result. So good rhetoric resulted in those with chronic illnesses unable to treat their illness.

    I imagine as per usual, you won't address this post as it casts him in an atrocious light.

    Well, I mean you can't really expect them to be capable of making a point and backing it up. That sort of thing is for people who tie their own shoelaces and read more than 280 characters at a time. It's not for everyone.


    Dropping a link, adding an erroneous comment and running away is much easier.

    Didn't see and won't see the full interview, but if the link is ever used as part of someone's defense for their murder trial, I expect a 'no reasonable person would believe ...' type response from the gowl.

    Would that defence work when your target audience is unreasonable people?

    Looks like Trump's DOJ was digging for dirt on his own former WH Counsel.

    Trying to blackmail his enemies seems to be the order of the day

    McGahn was still working in the White House at that stage , he didn't officially leave until October 2018.

    So they were spying on their own staff while they were still working for them.

    I have a feeling that there's going to be a lot more on this in the coming days...

    I know this is sh!tty behaviour , but is any of this stuff actually illegal?
