The Donald Trump Score Card

"The investigation by Mr. Vance, a Democrat, has focused on Mr. Trump’s conduct as a private business owner and whether he or employees at his family business, the Trump Organization, committed financial crimes. It is the only known criminal inquiry into the president."

...

 

tax fraud, money laundering, etc. the only known criminal inquiry into the president? You conveniently forgot to mention the investigations by the NY AG, and the Washington DC AG. The one by the Washington DC AG involves the family.

 

North Macedonian troll farms now?

Why not just go with Alien abductions or the Loch Ness monster?

 

Thats quoting the New York Times Einstein

 

Where you are involved, I wouldn't rule them out.

What do you expect these are the same people who believe an episode of The Simpson's predicted the coronavirus,
an episode of Family Guy predicted the Boston bombings, and COVID-19 is transmitted through the 5G networks, which
has led to a rise in cellphone tower vandalism ...lol..

 

The left-behinders who were misled and left behind by Trump.



An American tragedy: Inside the towns hardest hit by coronavirus
Rural counties with "worst possible public health setup you could imagine."

An American tragedy: Inside the towns hardest hit by coronavirus

excerpts:

"Today, rural America is caught squarely in the virus' crosshairs and the impact of the virus is much more widespread than it was in the spring.

As a proportion of the population, rural counties were always experiencing a disproportionately high death toll. A cluster of deaths at a nursing home in a small town has a different effect, statistically and personally, then it does in a large city. But what's changed since the early pandemic is the number of counties that have lost residents to the virus."


"As the pandemic has evolved and spread, those counties are increasingly rural, ABC News found, with the poorest counties that have the fewest health resources bearing the brunt of the burden.

"Rural is older, sicker and poorer," Alan Morgan, CEO of the National Rural Health Association, explained. "There's a higher percentage of people with multiple chronic issues and comorbidities," he said.

"If you throw in that they have the fewest options available for seeking care, it's the worst possible public health setup you could imagine.""

 

An American tragedy: Inside the towns hardest hit by coronavirus

excerpt:

"Disillusionment could partially explain why Dean said he has struggled to get his community to take COVID-19 seriously.

"People in more rural areas experienced the pandemic from a policy perspective, but not a health perspective," Chapple-McGruder said. "There was time to build up mistrust in those areas and make it seem as if the pandemic was not real."

Even as loved ones die of coronavirus, that mistrust lives on. Public health messaging just isn't resonating in many rural counties, Morgan said. "It's an incredibly difficult time to be a public health official in rural America."

It's a phenomenon Gruenbacher recognizes. "All of us physicians love our small town. People will bend over backward for you to help you, but those same people are the last ones you can tell to put a mask on,” he added. “They are pretty strong-willed. They don’t want to be told what to do.”

Mistrust and politicization of the pandemic are making life tough for doctors like Dean, who described the political conflict over masks as "terribly unfortunate.""

 

The coronavirus decimating rural towns of Trump's left-behinders means little to him. His interest is in blaming China and the blue states for the virus.

He tries to take credit for a vaccine for a virus that he says affects virtually nobody.

For such an empty statement to potentially have any meaning, he needs to first acknowledge the 300,000 deaths that have occurred because of the virus he belittled.

If he can issue a national day of remembrance for Americans killed by illegal immigrants, he can honor the 300,000 killed by the coronavirus.

 

Donald Trump engages in self-sabotage ahead of historic vaccine rollout - CNNPolitics

excerpt:

"As doses of a coronavirus vaccine are being prepared to be shipped to communities across the United States, President Donald Trump has an opportunity to mark a historic milestone for science -- and show some semblance of leadership in curbing the spread of Covid-19 as the number of US cases crosses 16 million.

Instead, in an act of self-sabotage, he is distracting Americans from that great accomplishment for his administration by spreading more election disinformation while questioning whether to fire Attorney General William Barr, in part, because he did not reveal a federal investigation into the business dealings of Hunter Biden, the son of President-elect Joe Biden, before the election.

Slashing at Barr on Twitter Saturday instead of focusing on saving American lives, Trump reminded the nation of one of the truisms about the way he has regarded his allies both in business and politics: everyone is expendable if they do not follow his dictates. No matter how loyal an aide has been -- and regardless of how many times they put their own reputation on the line to do Trump's bidding — the President has shown no compunction about casting them aside as soon he is convinced they are no longer useful as one of his political tools."

 

4 Stabbed and One Shot as Trump Supporters and Opponents Clash

excerpts:

"Stephanie Lalich, 55, who traveled from Baltimore to join the protest in Washington, said that voting machines had been used for widespread electoral fraud — a claim that has been proved false — and that judges had not sided with Mr. Trump because they did not want to take on the issue.

“They don’t want to deal with this,” Ms. Lalich said. “It’s going to have to go nuclear, using the Insurrection Act and bringing out the military.”"


"Kim Carter, who said God had told her to drive to the Atlanta rally from Jacksonville, Fla., said she was sure that Mr. Trump would be re-elected. She asked a member of Mr. Hill’s group whether it could send some armed members to Florida to protect her and her neighbors from Antifa activists after the election is finally overturned, as she believes will happen.

“Four more years, because God is the one who is in control of this,” Ms. Carter said."

 

Researchers decry Trump picks for education sciences advisory board

Researchers decry Trump picks for education sciences advisory board

excerpts:

"One month before his term expires, President Donald Trump has revived a moribund federal education research advisory panel by appointing eight members who appear to have no expertise in the subject area."


"The eight newly appointed members – combined with three Trump named in November 2019—will allow the board to get back to work. But former board members and leading figures in the field say the new cohort lacks the scientific qualifications to carry out the panel’s responsibilities. They also decry the timing.

“What a disgrace,” says Adam Gamoran, president of the William T. Grant Foundation, who served a 4-year term on the NBES that ended in 2015. “This is part of Trump’s effort to sabotage the board during the transition to the next administration.”

The new NSEB members are part of three waves of presidential appointments announced in the first 10 days of this month. Several have previously served in the Trump administration or were involved in the president’s 2016 and 2020 campaigns. And a few come with heavy political or ideological baggage.'

Washington coronavirus hospital admissions surge to highest level since pandemic began

 

If you're suggesting covid-19 is widespread throughout the United States, it is, but as egger has pointed out
the death rate in the rural areas (trump territory) is higher than in the major cities.

 

Cmon that is infrastructure related and has NOTHING to do with trump..... rural areas have smaller less equipped hospitals as well as other factors such as distance etc

 

True...

But there is a large proportion of Trump supporters in rural areas. (which I think is what hotwater was saying)

I happen to live in such an area, many here will go out of their way to not wear a mask or follow social distancing guidelines because Trump said "it was a hoax", (Yes, they actually say this stuff) and locally they are dropping like flies...

'Murica... Fuck Yeah.
