This week the United States achieved another milestone under the “leadership” of Donald Trump. More than 200,000 Americans have died as a result of his negligence, incompetence, and deliberate malfeasance in responding to the coronavirus pandemic. Add to that the 6.7 million people who contracted the disease, many of whom will suffer permanent, debilitating disabilities….

Trump confirms Woodward report he decried as 'fiction' in 2018
I don’t tell many lies. Sometimes I fudge my responses a bit when talking to my psychiatrist. Like, I’ll tell her I’m exercising regularly to improve my mood, when by “exercising” I actually mean “eating Corn Nuts.” So it’s not that tough to keep track of my little white lies. But Trump is a regular…
Trump gives book report on Woodward's 'Rage': (spoiler: he didn't actually read it)
First of all, while there’s really no such thing as a zero percent chance of any particular event occurring (epistemologically speaking, I don’t know I’m not a brain in a vat constructing my own subjective universe for my amusement bemusement, for instance), the chance that Donald Trump read Bob Woodward's latest book in one night approaches…
But I'm the “cheerleader for America” Trump.
Trump continues to dig the hole deeper. Expect some stunts that attempt to divert attention from the current news cycle in the coming week. President Donald Trump conceded on Wednesday that he did purposefully downplay the COVID-19 in its early stages despite privately acknowledging it was “deadly stuff” — but he did it for you, America! “I’m…
Trump says his COVID lies are just like Churchill's actions during the London bombings
Sure, why not? Trump telling Americans outright lies about their vulnerability to a killer virus is just like Churchill trying to calm the British people during World War II. EXACTLY like it. And if you disagree, you clearly have Trump Derangement Syndrome. x Trump compares his decision to keep quiet about the COVID pandemic despite…
Trump's Propaganda Press Conference Turns Into a Full Fledged FOX News Promo
On Thursday afternoon, Donald Trump held another of his phony press conferences that are really reelection campaign events illegally held in the White House. But this one was even more brazenly self-serving than those in the past, which were almost entirely self-serving. As usual, Trump spent the first half hour bragging about accomplishments that didn't…
Former Sen. McCaskill on Trump's Woodward interviews: 'This guy is too dumb to lead this country'
You’ll enjoy this, folks. Former Missouri Sen.

Woodward book: Trump privately admitted COVID was worse than flu even as he downplayed it
Trump is already a drowning otter trapped in a k-hole, and now this. According to Bob Woodward’s new book, Rage, Trump knew all along just how deadly and dangerous the coronavirus was, even as he continually downplayed the emerging health crisis. The Washington Post: “You just breathe the air and that’s how it’s passed,” Trump…
Oof! Stormy Daniels to release new book a month before midterms
Not sure if we need more details on Stormy Daniels’ “relationship” with Donald Trump (were the pages of that Forbes she spanked him with stuck together? exactly which species of shark does he hate the most?) but, alas, you’re going to get them. With Bob Woodward’s Fear taking up all the oxygen in the media troposphere these days,…
Watergate lawyer: Donald Trump will 'undoubtedly be impeached'
Sure, that headline might sound encouraging, but it’s a little like your doctor saying, “We’ll undoubtedly schedule surgery to get that wrought-iron fence post removed from your head. Someday. Sit tight. It will happen. Here’s a blister pack of Ibuprofen. Sorry, I already took most of them.” Anyway, Andrew Hall was a lawyer for John…
Woodward: Gary Cohn was 'astounded' by Trump's stupidity
Personally, I’m astounded that anyone could be astounded about how astoundingly stupid Donald Trump is, but apparently Gary Cohn once had enough faith in Trump to think he wouldn’t be the presidential equivalent of a drunk howler monkey with diarrhea. From Bess Levin in Vanity Fair: According to an excerpt from Bob Woodward‘s Fear, the book out tomorrow that…
A tweet for ev-er-y-thing!
H/T Seth Abramson: x Only the Obama WH can get away with attacking Bob Woodward. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 1, 2013 Hoo-boy. In this inadvertently prophetic tweet, Trump was talking about the time the Obama administration hit back at Woodward because he’d criticized Obama’s decision to keep an aircraft carrier stateside due to budget constraints…
