  6. For the record NO ONE is blaming the President for the virus. Let me repeat. Coronavirus is not Trump’s fault. Here’s a detailed list of what we are blaming him for: Trump declined to use the World Health Organization’s test like other nations. Back in January, over a month before the first Co-vid19 case, the Chinese posted a new mysterious virus and within a week, Berlin virologists had produced the first diagnostic test. By the end of February, the WHO had shipped out tests to 60 countries. Oh, but not our government. We declined the test even as a temporary bridge until the CDC could create its own test. The question is why? We don’t know but what to look for is which pharmaceutical company eventually manufactures the test and who owns the stock. Keep tuned. In 2018 Trump fired Homeland Security Advisor Tom Bossart, whose job was to coordinate a response to global pandemics. He was not replaced. In 2018 Dr. Luciana Borio, the NSC director for medical and bio-defense preparedness left the job. Trump did not replace Dr. Borio. In 2019 the NSC’s Senior Director for Global Health Security and bio-defense, Tim Ziemer, left the position and Trump did not replace the Rear Admiral. Trump shut down the entire Global Health Security and Bio-defense agency. Yes, he did. Amid the explosive worldwide outbreak of the virus Trump proposed a 19% cut to the budget of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention plus a 10% cut to Public Health Services and a 7% cut to Global Health Services. Those happen to be the organizations that responds to public health threats. In 2018, at Trump’s direction, the CDC stopped funding epidemic prevention activities in 39 out of 49 countries including China. Trump didn’t appoint a doctor to oversee the US response to the pandemic. He appointed Mike Pence. Trump has on multiple occasions sowed doubt about the severity of the virus even using the word hoax at events and rallies. He even did it at an event where the virus was being spread. Trump has put out zero useful information concerning the health risks of the virus. Trump pretended the virus had been contained. Trump left a cruise ship at sea for days, denying them proper hospital care, rather than increase his numbers in America. Repeat. We do not blame Trump for the virus. We blame him for gutting the nation’s preparations to deal with it. We blame him for bungling testing and allowing it to spread uninhibited. We blame him for wasting taxpayer money on applause lines at his rallies (like The Wall). We blame him for putting his own political life over American human life. I hope this clears things up.

  19. Trump, as a high level narcissist, does not even truly recognize you as living creatures. And to the extent that he does, you are not separate living creatures to him. If something is bad for him IT MUST be bad for you as well cos you only exist as an extension of him. So 300k dead is NOT 300k human lives lost, it is 300k bad bits of news and that makes him look bad and feel bad and therefore that is bad for the universe - but if HE does not know about the 300k dead then he is happy and that is GOOD for the universe and therefore for you - even if you are one of the dead people. I know this is very difficult to grasp - but think of a newborn baby, it has NO IDEA it is not the entire universe... Well, Trump is the same. So to him - he literally CAN NOT conceive of anything more important for the universe than making himself look and FEEL good, his happiness is the best thing for the universe he believes. He 100% believes if he does not know about the bad thing, it did not happen. And if he does know about the bad thing - the only reason it is important is cos it made him look bad. And the only reason it happened is cos someone is jealous of his perfection and they are doing it deliberately to make him look bad. So the priorities are. 1) avoid seeing things that make you look bad 2) destroy the evil jealous people who force you to look at things that make you look bad 3) feel good again And he 100% in the very core of his being thinks that this makes the universe perfect - if he is happy - the universe is happy.

  22. Jack O’Donnell is the former president of Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino. O'Donnell: "Sometimes his petty prejudices begat very public tirades. One day, he flew into a rage over a limousine driver who arrived to pick him up wearing gray shoes, soiling his image by “looking like a f------ Puerto Rican.” In 1988, shortly after I was promoted to president of Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino, he invited me up to New York for lunch. There was a lot to talk over one issue in particular: one of our senior managers, who happened to be African-American. Donald considered him incompetent and wanted him fired. When I acknowledged some shortcomings in the man’s performance, he instantly became enthused. “Yeah, I never liked the guy,” he said. “And isn’t it funny, I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.” I was mortified. We were in a restaurant in Trump Tower. I worried he’d be overheard. But he went on, “Besides that, I’ve got to tell you something else: I think the guy is lazy, and it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is. I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.” Trump is actually offended that anyone would even suggest that he's NOT a racist. Notice how he never seems to be offended by being called a racist. Whenever he makes racist comments, he doesn't take them back, he doubles down on them. Trump's racist comments over the years have received praise from neo-nazis and white supremacist leaders like David Duke. Trump: "Jeb Bush has to like the Mexican illegals because of his wife." Jeb Bush’s wife is Mexican - American During the campaign, Trump impugned the character of U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, a native-born American, hailing from Indiana, who was hearing a class action case against Trump's now-discredited fake Trump University. "He's a Mexican," Trump said to CNN of Curiel. "We're building a wall between here and Mexico. The answer is, he is giving us very unfair rulings — rulings that people can't even believe." Claiming a person can't do their job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment. It's the type of comment that only a racist would applaud..
