But, but, "his tone has changed!" Why does the media fall for it every time he reads a prepared statement without running off the rails? You know he is going to say the opposite thing the next day! Yet, he and his enablers will still boast about his great leadership in declaring masks good and saying "we are starting to make a plan" for handling the virus we knew about 8 months ago.

I think that last sentence is the most infuriating part; how even those who recognize the issues and are willing to call them out still fall for grading him on a massive curve. If you're writing "he's now starting to take things more seriously" with 150K dead, you should be writing it with open hatred and contempt at a bare minimum.

And every time they do this, they should follow up with a brief clip of Trump calling in to FoxNews during the Ebola "crisis," saying that Obama was responsible for importing Ebola should resign because 2 people died and he failed to save them. I don't remember the exact quote, but he said the responsibility always falls on the President.mister d wrote: ↑Tue Jul 28, 2020 10:01 am I think that last sentence is the most infuriating part; how even those who recognize the issues and are willing to call them out still fall for grading him on a massive curve.

I probably just severed friendships with two people via text because I finally grew tired of reading their bullshit about how this is all a fake news conspiracy to make trump look bad.

I honestly don't think we're going to get anywhere as a country as long as these crazies are coddled and placated by their friends and family. They need to be isolated and stew in their filth.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
I don’t see how that’s so crazy. GOP proposing $200, $600 would be ideal but if it takes $400 for six more months to make a deal than so be it. $1600 additional a month is still a life saver for a lot of people.

Gohmert's Chief of Staff's name is "Connie Hair," which sounds like the name of a character from a John Waters' movie.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Or a John Holmes movie.
Also reading Gohmert used the House gym post-diagnosis and wanted to tell his staff in person.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
That last bit seems to stem from Hoyer getting Gohmert and Rand Paul mixed up.
Though it does sound like he informed his staff in person.

This was straight up insanity. I looked at it yesterday after the news first broke, and it was just kinda chillin' at $9ish, and I decided not to play. Today's move made no sense.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Whoah, check out this text from a Gohmert staffer to a reporter that broke the story that Gohmert tested positive. Fucking asshole.
I'd bet money Gohmert has accused Dems of making masks political.

A lot of House staffers basically live in an abusive relationship. If a member acts like a complete asshole in front of the camera, 90 percent of the time they are an absolute nightmare for the staff.The Sybian wrote: ↑Wed Jul 29, 2020 4:39 pm Whoah, check out this text from a Gohmert staffer to a reporter that broke the story that Gohmert tested positive.

The most famous from back in my day was Michelle Bachman. She went through staff like toilet paper.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Just saw the greatest comment by former Bush WH Press Secretary. In trying to pay Cain a compliment, he full out called him the token black Republican they could point to and say they have a black friend.
“As a Black Republican, he was somebody that so many people could just turn to, look to, and say, ‘See, our ideas can be attractive across the board. We can be a party that’s growing.’ So you loved to hear Herman Cain’s voice amplifying the Republican message, and he did it so articulately.”

I guess maybe electing a pathological narcissist wasn’t such a good idea.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.
