    If he thinks 95% of the Blacks will vote for him, he belongs in a psychiatric hospital.

    Keep in mind he wants to censor them for fact checking him.

    Twitter Account Allegedly Suspended After Reposting Trump's Tweet That 'Glorified Violence'

    An experimental Twitter account has apparently proven what most of already know: Social media platforms give special treatment to Donald Trump.

    In response to the violent protest in Minneapolis last week, President Trump sent an unconscionable tweet that seemingly urged the military to shoot anyone who was caught looting.
    The post reignited calls for Twitter to suspend Trump's official account, as it was a clear violation of the terms of service. The platform pointed to the "public interest exceptions" within policies, explaining why it would not remove elected officials' tweets that would otherwise result in a suspension.

    "Blocking a world leader from Twitter or removing their controversial Tweets would hide important information people should be able to see and debate," Twitter wrote in a blog post. "It would also not silence that leader, but it would certainly hamper necessary discussion around their words and actions."

    Hours after the platform decided to flag the tweet for "glorifying violence," one Twitter user announced the launch of an online experiment that aimed to highlight Twitter's double standard and preferential treatment for the president. @SuspendthePres stated it would repost—not retweet—every message that Trump shared on his official account, to see whether or not the account would be punished for violating the terms of service.
    Twitter user @BizzareLazar, who operates @SuspendThePres, spoke to Mashable about the account and its primary objective.

    "I wanted to see for myself if he was indeed violating [Twitter's terms of service]," @SuspendThePres said via DM, "Figured what better way to test out the hypothesis than to see if they suspended me for the exact same language."

    Well, nearly three days after @SuspendThePres' announced the experiment, it was slapped with a 12-hour suspension over the aforementioned tweet.

    "I believe we as a free society, which is more and more dependent on social media to gather our information are responsible for holding our elected officials accountable for the content they put out there," @SuspendThePres said. "Social media platforms themselves have the same responsibilities, however they can be hamstrung by certain limitations. In a world leaders case, Twitter makes the argument that their content is important to be able be viewed regardless of its content to further national interest in the conversation. While I don’t disagree with that statement, I feel we should also know if that content would otherwise violate a platforms [terms of service]."

    Americans disapprove of Trump response to George Floyd death and protests, polls find

    Four polls from CBS News, Emerson College, Reuters/Ipsos and Monmouth University found most Americans disapprove of Trump's handling of the protests and the underlying racial issues.

    Only the Emerson College poll was conducted after peaceful protesters were cleared from around the White House on Monday so Trump could visit a nearby church that had been damaged the night before. The move was derided by former military officials, including retired Gen. James Mattis, Trump's first secretary of defense, who sharply rebuked the president in a statement Wednesday.

    This is the real risk. He's not going to accept loosing and his supporters will not either. Even with evidence that Biden although unpopular is doing much better than Hillary's "win" was going to be. He's the dear leader and the Democrats always lie.

    Psychiatrist: Trump's "displays of false strength" an election preview

    Lee spoke to Salon after Trump's threat this week to deploy the U.S. military onto American streets to quell protests and staged a photo-op in front of a church after federal forces stormed peaceful protesters outside the White House.


    "He may not start culture wars, or pandemics, but his psychological structure will occupy them and turn them far deadlier," Lee warned in an interview with Salon.


    She also warned about Trump's threats, the president's enablers and what this all means for the upcoming election. Lee stressed that she speaks only for the World Mental Health Coalition, as its president, and not for Yale.

    Murkowski is at it again.

    Murkowski and Collins have done this act repeatedly. They are supposedly in mental anguish with themselves on whether or not to support Trump. In the end, they have supported Trump.

    Murkowski Struggles With Whether To Support Trump Reelection

    excerpt:

    "Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska said Thursday she isn't sure she can support President Trump's bid for reelection.

    "I think right now as we are, as we are all struggling to ... find ways to express the words that need to be expressed appropriately, questions about who I am going to vote for or not going to vote for, I think are distracting to the moment," Murkowski told reporters.

    "I know people might think that's a dodge, but I think there are, there are important conversations that we need to have as an American people amongst ourselves about where we are right now."

    Within hours the president vowed in a tweet he would campaign against Murkowski in 2022, when she is up for reelection for her fourth term."

    Trump doesn't even abide by the terms of his own capricious threats.



    Embattled at Home, Trump Finds Himself Isolated Abroad, Too

    excerpt:

    "Then, on Friday, Mr. Trump suddenly announced that he was pulling the United States out of the World Health Organization, more than two weeks before his own stated deadline for the decision.

    As so often in the past, on issues like unilateral American withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal or the Paris climate accord or the Open Skies treaty or the sudden ban on air travel from Europe, Mr. Trump ignored the views of allies or did not consult them at all.

    The W.H.O. decision was a surprise to allies, and Ms. Merkel quickly said that she would not attend the proposed summit meeting."

    The two percent 'rally around the president' increase in favorability rating that Trump garnered as the coronavirus hit the U.S. has evaporated.

    As usual, Trump eventually destroys any chance of a lasting higher approval rating.

    For the coronavirus, it was his dunderhead remarks about treating people by ingesting disinfectants and UV, which caused a rash of poisonings of the Trump faithful around the country.

    Trump made the same whimsical remarks when pushing hydroxychloroquine as a remedy and preventative measure for the coronavirus: "What have you got to lose?"

    It has been shown to cause a greater percentage of deaths compared to not using it.

    Back in 2016, he said he would easily carry California. Well we see how that went.

    In Trump's mind, he did carry California but he didn't receive credit for it because of the alleged millions of illegal votes that went to Hillary that Trump's voter fraud commission group headed by Kobach of Kansas couldn't locate and later quietly disbanded

    Murkowski will probably still support Trump, like a battered spouse returning to the abuser time and again.

    And the voters in Alaska have an opportunity to give her a fifth term in the Senate.

    Take political labels out of the discussion for a minute or two. Does anyone really trust Rump or believe anything he's said??? Does he strike you as a stable, cognizant, thoughtful man??? Does he appear to be focused on the good of the country and it's future, as part of a larger world with other nations that are ALSO important??? Does he stay on point with goals and follow through with meaningful progress for the country??? Is he HONEST???? Does he have INTEGRITY??? Does he take military or medical experts' advice??? Does he talk with allies in the world, and maintain long-standing relationships that keep the world safer???

    OR …………….. Is he a loose cannon rolling around on the deck of a ship??? Does his focus shift from one minute to the next??? Does he constantly throw out one conspiracy theory after another accusing multiple, long-trusted government agencies with espionage, and treason??? Is his focus and energy "all about him" and his ratings??? Does he work for himself and his popularity, fame & "glory" ??? Has he lied so many times that it's a tough task to keep count of the numbers??? Has he called into question the FBI, CIA, NSA, the DOJ, U.S. Attorneys General, Special Counsels, U.S. Military leaders, the Congress of the U.S. as all sinister entities that are all out to get HIM??? Has he accused them all of lying??? Of being a "deep state" that's trying to undermine the U.S.??? Has he withdrawn from world-wide pollution reduction treaties, that most other countries signed onto??? Has he denied the seriousness of the corona virus, ignored medical experts, saying it would disappear "like a miracle" and not taking any action until Covid-19 had become widespread??? Does he trash-talk our long-established friendly allies around the world, breaking their trust with the U.S.??? Has he lied to the American people, saying that Mexico would pay for "the wall", and the tariffs put on foreign-made goods would be paid by those other countries??? (when IN FACT - WE PAY those tariffs out of our pockets with higher prices). Has he NO CONCERN for REAL JUSTICE in this country with all the protests over police brutality and murders??? Has he ignored the Constitution yet again by using force - even U.S. military - against PEACEFUL protesters - when the Constitution guarantees the RIGHT to peacefully assemble and protest???

    There are so many more questions one could ask about Rump that point to his incompetence, his lying, his arrogance, his complete LACK of integrity ……………………..etc. - but my fingers are sore. One could go for hours documenting Rump's failures in serious matters.

    He's just a carnival huckster, a deceptive car salesman, a scam artist. A self-aggrandizing narcissist with a ridiculous comb-over. Nothing more.

    Yep. Murky, mucky, Murkowski. Political jellyfish with NO SPINE. Collins of Maine is the same. Like troublesome intestinal gas - they'll come back to haunt the country at a perfectly inopportune time. NO INTEGRITY. NO ETHICS in either Murkowski or Collins. They'll fall in line and fold like a house of cards. Maybe that's why Rump is so fat these days ……………. so many people are stuck up his ass that he's become a blimp. Bill Barr, Lindsey Graham, Nunes, McCarthy, …………………… well pretty much all the Repubs in the federal government with the exception of Mitt Romney. Print your names on the bottoms of your shoes, sheep - so we know who's who deep up Rump's ass.

    Trump wants an RNC convention venue packed with 20,000 people, like his delusional vision of churches packed with parishioners on Easter during the coronavirus pandemic.

    He wants no face masks, social distancing, or anything that could remind people of the coronavirus.

    After withdrawing the convention from North Carolina, he has to find another state with a governor who he can bribe or coerce into conforming to all of his unreasonable requirements.

    Trump's Mexican border wall has arrived at his residence.



    The White House is now surrounded by nearly 2 miles of fencing and barricades
    The Week

    The White House is now surrounded by nearly 2 miles of fencing and barricades

    excerpt:

    "The White House is now so heavily fortified that it resembles the monarchical palaces or authoritarian compounds of regimes in faraway lands — strikingly incongruous with the historic role of the executive mansion," known as "the People's House," the Post adds. "The resulting picture is both jarring and distinctly political — a Rorschach test for one's view of Trump's presidency. His supporters see a projection of absolute strength, a leader controlling the streets to protect his people. His critics see a wannabe dictator and a president hiding from his own citizenry."

    And so he hides in the "Peoples' House" from the People.
