I assume only the Trump apologists and enablers are clueless enough to trust this sycophantic bootlicking toady. His true mandate is to ensure Trump, Kushner et al evade detection as they corruptly benefit from the trillions obligated under the statute. Or this scenario: November 4, 2020: If Trump loses, he won't concede. Jan. 6, 2021: If Trump falls in the Electoral College, he won't leave.

It didn't have to be this way.

I’m sure he’ll throw a fit, claim the election was rigged, and refuse to concede. But, as long as the results are outside the recount margin, who cares what he says? Seems to me that conceding is a matter of courtesy and not a formal part of the process. The states will confirm their results and that will be that. Let’s just hope that 1) he loses and 2) it’s by enough that is temper tantrum will be irrelevant.

President Trump met with the pro sports commissioners today. (Yes, Vince McMahon is included.)

Are you saying it's Obama's and Bush's fault Trump is sending out expired masks 3 1/2 years into his Presidency??? Please tell me that's not what you're saying. 🤦🏾♂️ 1) The official asked the Thais for help—only to be informed by the puzzled voices on the other side of the line that a U.S. shipment of the same supplies, the second of two so far, was already on its way to Bangkok. 2) The government has yet to curtail exports by U.S. companies, however—roughly 280 million masks in warehouses around the U.S. were purchased by foreign buyers on Monday alone, according to Forbes. A FEMA spokesperson said the agency “has not actively encouraged or discouraged U.S. companies from exporting overseas,” noting that various U.S. agencies are coordinating their activities with their overseas counterparts. No of course not. But it is Obama’s fault expired masks were present in 2011,2012,2013, 2014,2015 and 2016. The plans were the culmination of a venture unveiled three years earlier by the Obama admin. Trump's HHS squashed it.

"pandemic is a lot like a forest fire," Bush said at the time. "If caught early it might be extinguished with limited damage. If allowed to smolder, undetected, it can grow to an inferno that can spread quickly beyond our ability to control it."
The president recognized that an outbreak was a different kind of disaster than the ones the federal government had been designed to address.
"To respond to a pandemic, we need medical personnel and adequate supplies of equipment," Bush said. "In a pandemic, everything from syringes to hospital beds, respirators masks and protective equipment would be in short supply."

I honestly don't understand this, so hopefully someone can explain to me. If HHS ordered 10,000 of these new and less expensive ventilators, why weren't they produced and delivered?

I'd love to see him dragged out.

There's a shocker, he's pushing it as a grift to fatten his wallet and soak taxpayers.
