In Mel Brooks’ brilliant cinematic spoof, the ‘History of the World Part 1,’ world history is pilloried,parodied, and pushed to the limits, creating uproarious laughter, but that is a movie. In his most serious and somber, oh so somber voice the President credited the 1917(sic)Spanish flu with ending World War II. “The closest thing is…

Kamala Harris will be responsible for asking Mike Pence on live TV if they need a chaperone.
Trump’s latest nasty nickname for Harris will get rolled out in the press conference. And I get more mileage out of my Harris “for the people” gear. Opinion: Biden’s VP should be prepared for an onslaught of online misogyny unlike anything seen before https://t.co/6VEdUoGl1E — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) August 5, 2020 Kamala Harris' ex…

KY, SC & ME-Sen: GOPers Who Denounced Obama's “Executive Overreach” Are Now Praising Trump
Ok, so we know about Trump’s “executive order” on the coronavirus stimulus relief package: President Donald Trump signed a series of executive orders Saturday in an effort to bypass congressional negotiations and extend financial relief to tens of millions of Americans during the coronavirus pandemic.

Robin Williams Daughter OWNS Eric Trump Over Idiotic Tweet Of Her Father Roasting Joe Biden
First off, I want to say that Robin Williams has been and will forever be my all time favorite comedian. I grew up loving and idolizing Williams as both a performer and a person and the day he took his life and I teared up heavily. He truly was a wonderful man who brought the…

Triumph of the Could at Gettysburg: “Slide into partial irrelevance…even more difficult for Trump”
Trump’s self-fulfilling idiocy still needs to drive his numbers further down. Like punking his gun-toting followers, a desperate Trump thinks that having his GOP RNC acceptance speech at Gettysburg will do for his neo-confederate followers something, something Charlottesville. The Stephen Miller logic probably has more historical revisionist malarkey in the first speech draft. Then again…

Will Saletan discusses “Trump’s interference or negligence in every stage of the government’s failure: preparation, mobilization, public communication, testing, mitigation, and reopening.” Then America’s luck ran out. “The U.S., which accounts for less than 5% of the world population, leads all other countries in global coronavirus infections and deaths” — CNBC The most complete, fully…
Deranged Trump Syndrome: said he “never suggested it,” except he then did it for three years
An entirely circular public relations stunt aided by the NY Times. Trump wasn’t accountable because one of his minions approached the South Dakota government with the flackery of Trumpist followers and the pretensions of Grover Norquist for Reagan’s head. Even though Trump has been informally yakking about it since taking office the Trump White House still has…
