“Trump is now a Frankenstein-like amalgamation of Idi Amin, John Gotti, Bernie Madoff, and…”

Asha Rangappa is right, we are now confronted by Frankenstein’s Monster-like amalgamation of Idi Amin, John Gotti, Bernie Madoff, and Nell (the jungle-child character played by Jodie Foster (see Truffault)).

In that same vein, Rush Limbaugh says “Americans should “adapt” to coronavirus, like pioneers who “had to turn to cannibalism”

No one's leaving Trump in a wheelchair at a race track (yet), but the GOP needs consider the 25th Amendment for as long as it can. Then there’s after the election, when the deal of the century happens: Trump resigns to be federally pardoned by Pence before Biden is inaugurated.

WhatÃ¢Â€Â™s unreal is that we have another 190 days of President* Trump bloviating until January 20.

Somebody please stop this crazy ride.

The president seems surprised by some of what heÃ¢Â€Â™s reading from his own notes. Talks through a few lines and then says them again.

When have we seen a President using White House Rose Garden to attack his opponent for reelection at length?

— Michael Beschloss (@BeschlossDC) July 14, 2020

So because Trump canÃ¢Â€Â™t hold rallies anymore he is just going to hold campaign events in the Rose Garden?

CNN just cut away from Trump who had passed old man bar drunk and went straight to old man lost the jello on the tray in front of him.

IÃ¢Â€Â™m only part of the way through the transcript of the presidentÃ¢Â€Â™s Rose Garden ramble-speech today.

IÃ¢Â€Â™ve counted 19 false or misleading claims.

The preliminary list: https://t.co/I5arbkZvJv

Speaking in the White House Rose Garden, at what was billed as a “press conference” in which he would give remarks about China, Trump delivered a rambling 52-minute monologue filled with pre-scripted attacks on Democratic opponent Joe Biden.

As usual, Trump's comments were filled with egregious lies and other false claims. We haven't yet had a chance to comb through the entire transcript, but here is a list of the 19 false or misleading claims we have counted so far:

Biden and the suburbs

Here's a look at our recent fact checks.

Trump said of an Obama-era housing rule meant to address racial segregation: “You're going to abolish the suburbs with this.”

Facts First: This is nonsense. (To be specific, it is racially coded nonsense.) Diversifying or integrating suburbs does not abolish suburbs.

Biden and buildings

Trump denounced a proposal — put forward by a “unity” task force composed of people appointed by Biden and former primary rival Sen. Bernie Sanders — to achieve “net-zero” carbon emissions for all new buildings by 2030. Trump claimed that this “basically means no windows.”

Facts First: That is also nonsense. Buildings with a whole bunch of windows can have net-zero emissions, which means they produce as much renewable energy as the energy they consume. And the task force's proposal wouldn't mandate net-zero buildings; rather, this would simply be a “national goal.”

Trump is running a campaign about how his opponent has lost his mind while himself delivering disjointed monologues filled with made-up stories, absurd boasts, petty grievances and verbal stumbles. https://t.co/bsgojoRM5e— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) July 15, 2020

John Gotti.

I sometimes wonder if that is his game plan. When he leaves office, his platoon of lawyers can say “Look at some of his decisions, he clearly is not in his right mind.”

For those asking whether you should read the book, even though the above might be obvious Ã¢Â€Â” read the book. Seeing these qualities played out in the context of ordinary family interactions and dramas Ã¢Â€Â” dinners, weddings, births and funerals Ã¢Â€Â” is uniquely horrifying and educational

Except the images Trump uses in his ads are “his” America, darn Willie Horton.

There needs to be a class-action, wrongful death lawsuit brought against Trump, all his lying enablers, including Fox, by the families of the 130,000+ blithely killed with lies and disinformation said solely to protect Donald and his reelection chances.https://t.co/c8D6biF3Vc
