    At one point in time, people considered a gentle man with discriminating taste to be an admirable gentlemen. He would like fine cars, fine bourbon, and fine cigars, and fine women. It had nothing to do with racial discrimination. In contrast, Todays discriminators - like 6 Inch Rabbit - think discrimination in housing, education, and employment is justifiable against minorities and immigrants. He thinks immigrants from Mexico brought in Coronavirus and the crabs. He thinks White Christian Republicans are the model citizens. I really hope Trump doesn't give him a job in government!
     
  3. Oh hell yea. And I wasn't one of those white leisure suit dorks. My thing was dancing and it got me laid, often. I worked for the Fred Astair dance studio in Orlando (I looked and sounded older than I was). The 70s were amazing. But, disco came crashing down faster than my IT career.

    This is way off topic, but thought I would bring some levity to the thread. Ever here the story of how the Rolling Stones song, Miss You, was made?
    It pissed Stone's fans off because it sounded like disco music, and it pissed Keith Richards off big time. Mick's impetus for the song was going to discos in Berlin. This was also the time of Studio 54, and when Mick was breaking up with Bianca.
    Now back to regular programming.

    Yep our economy is headed for the crapper.

    Economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis are warning that if the current rate of U.S. job losses continues, the country's unemployment rate
    could reach a staggering 32.1% by the end of June amid mass layoffs across the nation.

    During the height of the Great Depression the U.S.unemployment rate reached a maximum of 25%

    You know they are talking out of their ass though right? Not that the unemployment rate may or may not get that high. But they are totally guessing

    This has never happened before, almost every country shut down at once. Nothing to compare it to

    Any economist says they can predict what's coming, totally full of it

    32.1%? What's with the 0.1? Pffft

    Hephatrump's complaints against Hospitals and health facilities who want vital equipment to deal with Covid - 19.


    Trump Attacks Hospitals As Insatiable ‘Complainers’ Amid Crisis
    “The complainers should have been stocked up and ready long before this crisis hit,” tweeted the president, who belittled the coronavirus pandemic for weeks.

    President Donald Trump on Thursday criticised states and hospitals for requesting medical supplies to cope with the coronavirus pandemic, calling them “complainers” that should have stocked up on supplies “long before this crisis hit.”

    “Some have insatiable appetites & are never satisfied,” Trump wrote in one of two tweets scolding states and health facilities that he claimed have already received “massive amounts of medical supplies” from the federal government.

    Massive amounts of medical supplies, even hospitals and medical centers, are being delivered directly to states and hospitals by the Federal Government. Some have insatiable appetites & are never satisfied (politics?). Remember, we are a backup for them. The complainers should...

    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 2, 2020
    ....have been stocked up and ready long before this crisis hit. Other states are thrilled with the job we have done. Sending many Ventilators today, with thousands being built. 51 large cargo planes coming in with medical supplies. Prefer sending directly to hospitals.

    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 2, 2020
    The insults from Trump, who downplayed the pandemic for weeks before acknowledging the scope of the crisis in recent days, came after the nation’s top infectious disease expert said as many as 200,000 people in the US may die from the virus. As of Thursday, there were more than 216,000 confirmed COVID-19 cases in the US and 5,100 deaths.

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency has asked the Pentagon for 100,000 body bags in anticipation that funeral homes will be overwhelmed in the coming weeks.

    Officials in hard-hit regions have been pleading with Trump’s government for weeks to send help and medical resources, including ventilators, masks and other personal protective equipment.

    I am asking healthcare workers across the country:

    If things are not urgent in your own community, please come to New York.

    We need relief for nurses. We need relief for doctors.

    If you can, help us: Get Involved: How You Can Help

    We will return the favor in your hour of need.

    — Andrew Cuomo (@NYGovCuomo) March 30, 2020
    New York state, where the coronavirus death toll doubled in 72 hours to more than 1,900 on Wednesday, has predicted a major shortfall of supplies. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said Wednesday the city needs 3.3 million N95 masks, 2.1 million surgical masks, 100,000 isolation gowns and 400 ventilators by Sunday to meet a surge of cases anticipated early next week.

    Trump, who has praised himself over his handling of the outbreak amid widespread criticism of his government’s haphazard response, has repeatedly brushed off reports that hospitals and other medical providers are experiencing a shortage of tests, ventilators and personal protective equipment for workers. He has also insisted that it’s the responsibility of state governments to find their own solutions.

    “The federal government’s not supposed to be out there buying vast amounts of items and then shipping. You know, we’re not a shipping clerk. We’ll help out wherever we can,” the president said at a news conference in March.

    seriously, huff post? I understand why you didn’t put it in quotes and didn’t supply a link to your source. not a good one at all.

    now, aren’t you worried about the people in other places who are denied masks because the left is being greedy and wanting more than their world share of all the masks in the world! Lets chant, I bet Africa has a good stockpile available. Plenty of aid sent there. Let’s all chant in solidarity online...

    what do we want?
    FACE MASKS!
    When do we want it?
    NOW!

    what do we want?
    FACE MASKS!
    When do we want it?
    NOW!

    there, that should fix the problem. Where is the UN Stockpile to distribute to the world?

    no white christians on the left? You have criticized Christianity while attempting to elevate your own faith, the one true way, you probably dictate to others on how to be a good and proper Muslim.
    You have said you prefer brown skin over white, that is fine, everyone has different initial attractions, no problem. Just from personal experience, a simple smile and confidence can turn an unnoticed person in the room to the most attractive person in the room, not based on skin colour, but that is just me, you have shown a rather strong hatred towards white people.

    you do understand that, in Cuba, it is 64.12% white and is rising in percentage, not falling?

    you also understand that Puerto Rico is 75.8% white right?

    ""The notion of the federal stockpile was it's supposed to be our stockpile, It's not supposed to be states' stockpiles that they then use." ~ Jared Kushner, April 2nd 2020.

    The number of the anti-Christ is 666 and that is Jared Kushner's address.

    Trump wants to remember when the shit hits the fan, but he is the fan, and boy its coming soon and he cant duck this time he has to just stand there and take it, or do what's he's good at and spread it amongst others so non falls on him he hopes.

    But I think he's going to get the fall amount he can get and its going to be stacked high..
