Shitshow just started

[malaise]

telling people to follow the guidelines (after praising the protesters)

[vrguy]

1. You are my spirit animal❤️ n/t

.

[mentalsolstice]

24. +1000 nt

[malaise]

64. Love your username

[mentalsolstice]

98. Thank you! Yours too and your avatar. 👋

[malaise]

120. Had to look that up

[Rorey]

2. My local station is covering it for a few minutes

Then when Governor Polis starts his briefing, momentarily, they'll break away from OrangeAss.

[Newest Reality]

3. I think it may be sequential...

1. Follow the guidelines for two hours.

2. Go out and protest, no silly masks or gloves needed.

3. Follow the guidelines for two hours.

4. Go to step one.

[malaise]

5. Did you notice how he attempted to dismiss that oil bloodbath -

he really thought that was very smart but it sure wasn't clever. Just you wait asshole.

[Rorey]

4. He reads like a zombie NT

[Rorey]

6. Bashing the governors, as usual NT

[BigmanPigman]

7. Never started for me...I refuse to watch that BS campaign rally

and any coverage of his BS protests. I value maintaining my sanity (what is still left of it, that is) and I can't afford a new TV as this one would surely go flying out the window as if it were thrown by Keith Moon himself. Going, going gone...splat!

TURN IT OFF
TURN IT OFF
TURN IT OFF
TURN IT OFF!!!!!!!!

[Mossfern]

10. You can see the salient points

in this thread if you can't bear watching.

[sfstaxprep]

8. Reading These DU Updates....

It sounds like watching a Rerun of a bad TV show you've seen before.

[BigmanPigman]

27. Yeah, 2016 campaign via CNN and MSNBC...deja vu!

No thank you!

I think they are sort of not covering his daily pressers/rallies as much, but I "knock wood" since every time I have thought this was happening over the past 3+ years they eventually proved me wrong as they resorted back to their old ways...M$M.

[sfstaxprep]

9. I Refuse To Spoil My 4/20 By Watching That Shitshow nt

[malaise]

13. It's 4/20 every day where I live

[nolabear]

43. You take the endless one-upping and criticism so well.

Maybe it’s the tension of the days but I am so over being dragged for trying to post actual info on a discussion board. I’m sure I’ll get over it but my last nerve is frayed. I appreciate all you do.

[malaise]

47. I walk 5.2 k four days a week and work out for an hour five days a week

I'm stress free

[nolabear]

53. ...

[BigmanPigman]

22. Shit! I forgot about that.

New plans for the next few hours, and trimming my hair is NOT one of them anymore.

[uponit7771]

11. ***NOTICE*** Trump, Birx and Fauci CONTINUE to talk about capacity vs throughput & availability !!

...Governors are not as concerned about capacity as through put & availability because of the number of test that need to be done per day / per week in regards to watching how the virus is moving throughout the populous.

There should be some guidance on frequency / amplitude and triggers related SIP measures but they're not going to give any of that because Trump wants us all to die or something.

[procon]

12. He's back to blaming governors again.

This is old news. He's got nothing new to say and he's just rehashing the same old whiny poor me, he's the victim crap.

[malaise]

15. Another DUer described it as Groundhog Day

Same shit different day

[BComplex]

52. That's perfect!! It IS like Groundhog Day!

I wish everyone in the nation was calling it that; maybe the networks would quit showing these shit shows.

[Totally Tunsie]

14. YAY! Andrew Cuomo is visiting at the WH tomorrow with his NY task force.

I hope they pre-test for temperatures, etc.
IOW: If they have a temp, they CAN go on the trip.

[nolabear]

46. I hope he wears a mask and stays six feet from everybody.

[spiderpig]

16. Hi Malaise!

You are the Muse who gets me through this daily shitshow.

[malaise]

19. Lots of regular muses on our shitshow thread

[cilla4progress]

17. Psychotic

He's doing this on purpose to make us crazy.

[SammyWinstonJack]

102. Can't make you crazy if you don't watch his shitshow, which I don't. Just saying.🙃

[cilla4progress]

164. Believe me, I dont.

He still makes me crazy.

[Rorey]

18. We just broke away for Governor Polis.

Wish it had been sooner.

[malaise]

21. Keep us posted

[Rorey]

29. As always, he started with condolences

He always shows his heart, which is such a refreshing change from OrangeAss.

[marble falls]

20. Covering both sides of his bet. Now you know why did so badly with his Casinos.

[uponit7771]

23. He's not hedging at all, he's greedy and all in on a position cause he's stupid

[malaise]

25. The worst part is that he actually believes he is conning people

He is such a creep

[marble falls]

39. The best con he's ever pulled was on himself.

[malaise]

61. Would someone tell him it's Democratic Governor

Why don't Dems tell them to cut this crap

[malaise]

73. I just want to survive until election night

when he discovers that he conned himself into believing he could continue this Con

[marble falls]

159. Honestly, that's what makes me determined to make it. I'm old, with lung issues ...

and fighting cancer in an area where today the traffic looked like normal, and the locals have about 20% mask wearing rate.

But I am determined to see Joe Biden sworn in and Trump starting his legal procession into eventual imprisonment.

I'm staying safe and I hope you are, too.

I look forward to maybe one day inviting you and yours to dinner in Jamaica.

[malaise]

160. Fight you hear

and stay safe

[marble falls]

161. Oh don't you know I am fighting, like the song says ...

"I've got something to die for
what more I can I do?
I've got something to live for,
what about you?"

A great antiwar song from the 60's by the Hello People.

I'll go when Jah takes me.

[Mossfern]

26. "This virus gets a vote"

Army Corps of Engineers.
Waste of time.

[malaise]

28. He thinks very loud is persuasive

showing us the tent. WTF!?

[spiderpig]

30. Blah (BS) blah (BS) blah

I'm waiting for the press to go after him. Please-please-please...

[uponit7771]

33. +1, they do this often ... come out and filibuster the questions with nonsense that no one is ...

... interested in.

We need par per capita availability and through put on the city, county and state level.

[malaise]

40. Oh shit - did you hear that - we're testing them...not the...testing them with

temperatures.

My fucking supermarket does that - are these people mad?

[uponit7771]

31. Can we get to educated testing availability & working throughput questions? This is more filibuster

[malaise]

34. Baffle them with bullshit

They're really good at that

[uponit7771]

37. +1, Birx will use every 10 dollar word she's stored in her brain to make sure there aren't follow up

... questions

[spiderpig]

45. There are some heroes in the press corps

Acosta, Jonathan Karl, Paula Reid among others who eat the Bloviator's lunch.

[demmiblue]

32. I just turned it on.

So caffeinated.

Did he really praise the protestors? So maddening!

[Mossfern]

35. The wall?

Really?

[BigDemVoter]

36. And let me guess. . . MSNBC is right there with their cameas trained straight on Pussy-Grabber

while he lies through his fucking pie hole. . .

[uponit7771]

41. only 36% of the people trust Trump, I don't know if these are helping him much

[nolabear]

50. It's a dilemma. We need evidence or he controls what we know.

[sop]

38. Trump changed the subject from building field hospital to building his fucking wall.

[malaise]

44. Testing their temperatures and calling that a test - this is fucking criminal

seriously

[uponit7771]

66. +1

[Solomon]

42. Back on the fucking wall again!

He really thinks we're stupid.

[spiderpig]

51. I couldn't believe they brought this up.

His stupid WALL!!!

[NoRoadUntravelled]

48. I won't watch. I take Ghandi's lead in this one;

"I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet."

[IcyPeas]

49. Putting Semonite on the spot

I think, asking about the wall.

[bullwinkle428]

54. Deaths appear to be shooting up today, after 2 days of decline. 1688 so far, with

some hours to go.

[uponit7771]

58. +1, I bet the testing went back up after the 30% decline. Trumps a monster

[malaise]

86. Truthfully I thought we'd have passed 60,000 already

Mother's boy up now singing their praises
Let me see how many times he says president

[uponit7771]

55. 5000 locations is horrible and doesn't address local availability or throughput

[spiderpig]

56. What are these "locations" he's talking about?

Forced labor camps? I zoned out while he was bloviating.

[underpants]

62. It's so Governors can find out about their own state

Hey look! There are Federal places here. WHO KNEW?!?!?

[spiderpig]

76. I'm sure Gavin Newsom is happy The Moron pointed this out.

Newsom can run rings around The Moron and knows exactly how to play him. ("Gavin Newsom likes me! He says nice things about me!!!" No, idiot...he thinks you're a clown and spends his energy running our state.)

[sop]

57. Any time Trump shows us a stack of papers to prove a point he's cranking up the bullshit-o-meter

to "10."

[uponit7771]

60. yep, especially when he can just point to a website so we can see for ourselves.

[underpants]

65. There was a binder clip. Didn't you see the big binder clip?

I loved when the flipped through it. I think he was expecting ooohs and aaahs

[sop]

96. Reminded me of the time Trump wouldn't allow reporters to see "piles of documents"

during his press conference before his inauguration in 2017, supposedly detailing his plans to "disentangle himself from his businesses."

Standing next to a table stacked with manila folders, Trump said: “These papers are just some of the many documents I’ve signed turning over complete and total control to my sons...They are not going to discuss the business with me...Again, I don't have to do this. They're not going to discuss it with me.”

[underpants]

122. I remember that.

They were stacked so high. I know we were all so in awe.

[demtenjeep]

162. weren't they all empty

or just pieces of meaningless paper?

[underpants]

59. He has a "booklet" (binder clipped) of Fed locations in states for Governor's to look at

Because they might not know about Federal locations in their own state.

I loved when he started flipping through it. “Lots of locations”.

[uponit7771]

63. +1, if those are testing locations that's abysmal in a country of 330 million. He's stupid ...

... and thinks he's the smartest person in the room

[underpants]

72. I think it was actually just Federal locations

Like Governors don’t know about them.

[uponit7771]

75. +1, .. and skirting the question on availability and throughput. I wish they'd just have scientist

... ask the questions instead of reporters.

I like some of them but they're allowing too much filibustering and Red Herrings

[IcyPeas]

67. he doesn't say Hydroxychloroquine any more....

hmmmmmm someone tell him to cut it out?

[Ilsa]

68. "Scorge" vs "scourge." nt

[JohnnyLib2]

69. Who's doing the "incredible" count?

And what did the king of ventilators catch?

[spanone]

70. FUCK HIM.

[malaise]

79. Who the fuck is Brad Smith

He is so delighted to be there

[underpants]

88. He talked about things

And how we are going to have things in the future

[uponit7771]

89. lol .. and stuff

[underpants]

91. Joined CMS last June.

https://www.modernhealthcare.com/people/brad-smith-appointed-new-cms-innovation-center-leader

[malaise]

94. Thanks

[spiderpig]

71. We talked to our cousin in Australia yesterday.

Yes, they have 10% of our population, but their deaths total 19. Even though our cousin lives in a sparsely populated area, everyone observes safe practice.

[malaise]

74. Australia believes in society

Big difference

[uponit7771]

77. +1, Oz has some high density areas also but they took the Jan 12 WHO warning from China seriously

... and got on it.

[spiderpig]

90. Yeah, our cuz's kids are in Melbourne, but Ozzies have more brains than we Yanks

He says they know what to do to protect themselves.

[uponit7771]

99. Saw a movie about Ebola and what Obama admin did in Africa to get in front of it and we ...

... know how to take care of business but the president can't be a whore to Putin like Trump is.

[Solomon]

78. It was always about testing asshole!

Now that he's got a bunch of ventilators he's pretending that testing is a new issue raised by the fake press.

He's proof that there is no God. Or if there is, She just don't care.

[malaise]

80. And anyone who wants a test can get one

signed Don the criminally negligent Con

[uponit7771]

85. THIS !!!! This alone is a 2020 winner when it comes to CV19

[Totally Tunsie]

163. I hope he's continually nailed on this quotation just as the Repugs

continually poke at Pres. Obama's "You can keep your doctor...". In the eight years of BHO's presidency, that's the main item they try to hang him with, and don't they love to. Just shows they have nothing else with which to attack that isn't a Republic(an) lie.

[underpants]

87. It could be *GASP* both

Just think how confusing that must be

[IcyPeas]

81. "a political conspiracy meant to take him down"

Trump suggests that demands for more testing, just like requests for ventilators, are part of a political conspiracy meant to take him down -- not necessary measures to respond to a virus that has killed more than 40,000 Americans

Link to tweet

[malaise]

83. His lawyer must have warned him

Wrongful death lawsuits coming up?

[underpants]

84. They are cranking these out fast now

Checking it out later.

[bullwinkle428]

105. This asshole KNOWS that projected ventilator demand was taken DIRECTLY from the

IHME models, which all of his fucking doctors are using to get a handle on expected numbers!

[uponit7771]

110. THIS !!!! I wish the reporters would do their homework and ask relevant questions to his statements

[uponit7771]

82. LOCAL AVAILABILITY & THROUGHPUT! We don't need capacity issues address again, we need local

... working avaiability and throughput averages answered.

Were are the scientist ?!

[underpants]

92. Potted plant talking now

Mr. Pants

[IcyPeas]

93. 500,000 tests from South Korea

The president has told governors it's their responsibility to get tests. So that's what @GovLarryHogan and Maryland's first lady did — they secured 500,000 tests from South Korea.

trump: "The governor of Maryland didn't really understand. He didn't really understand what was going on" -- Trump begins the April 20 #TrumpPressBriefing by attacking Republican Gov. Larry Hogan of Maryland, who has been critical of the federal coronavirus response.

Link to tweet

[malaise]

100. He told them that more than a month after he told them that

anyone who wants a test could get one. There is a tape.
Scarfie is sliding away today

[uponit7771]

103. This is just horrible, a really horrible thing he had to do this

[spiderpig]

95. I have never taken a sleeping pill in my life

but Dense is a viable alternative.

[uponit7771]

97. see, see I knew they'd go to "capacity" again WE NEED AVAILABILITY AND THROUGHPUT !!!

[spiderpig]

101. I'm watching.

What is "throughput"? Is it similar to "throwup"?

[uponit7771]

104. lol .. yep, that's what they're doing with "capacity" terms. They're not talking about how fast a

... test can be taken and answer given back.

Their talking about how many test they can process which does no one any good if that processing avg is 5 days response or if the test are so filtered that even the symptomatic can't get tested.

[uponit7771]

106. Of COURSE they have capacity but availability and throughput are inadequate ... come on reporters

... we're not being helped without knowing what to ask these charlatans.

[IcyPeas]

107. John Roberts gets to ask multiple questions plus follow-ups

others dont..... hmmmm could it be that he's with Fox?

[uponit7771]

108. BOOM!! Liability question, Trump doesn't want them to be liable. No one has discussed that yet?! WTF

[IcyPeas]

109. and Birx just said the tests are not always reliable

[uponit7771]

111. wow, yeah... #YouFirst should be the statement aimed at everyone who wants to reopen the Trump Virus

[malaise]

116. But that is why most of the corporate folks refused

to join his stupid task force to open up the country. Their lawyers would not support that shit because they will be liable.

[uponit7771]

119. +1, and who's gonna want to work in a place that not liable !? These guys must sit around and yank

... on each other all day.

They're the most screwed up crew, they had a playbook and can't follow it

[uponit7771]

112. ANOTHER BOOM !!! 23 million was wrong !! AVAILABILITY & THROUGHPUT !! That's what's needed !!

[bullwinkle428]

113. BAD answer, bro - implying that Larry Hogan didn't know what he was doing by

obtaining tests through South Korea.

[uponit7771]

115. +1, these guys are going to keep up the obfuscation. There's no doubt a ...

... disconnect in verbiage and seeing Birx runs from the podium when she talks I'm thinking its on purpose.

[malaise]

121. Of course it's on purpose

Lie, spin, obfuscate, baffle with bullshit.

[IcyPeas]

114. If stores open and workers get sick, will companies be liable?

.
@kaitlancollins
: If stores open and workers get sick, will those companies be liable?

TRUMP: "I'll give you a legal answer to that when we look it up."

COLLINS: You guys haven't talked about that?

TRUMP: "No, but we will."

Link to tweet

[uponit7771]

117. +1, that's the wrong answer to that question but he said he wanted liability to companies waved

[underpants]

140. So can we get children sweeping the floors of slaughterhouses again

That’s what it sounds like to me

[Politicub]

118. My husband watches and it gives me a stress knot in my neck

I can't stand how much they repeat the same thing over and over again, and spend at least a quarter of the time praising Trump. It's ridiculous.

He's so arrogant. I'm glad these sessions aren't being covered in whole by most of the networks. Husband watches on YouTube.

[malaise]

123. I have so much fucking fun watching him try so hard to sell this bullshit

Last edited Mon Apr 20, 2020, 09:17 PM - Edit history (1)

like a minute ago - it's not about me, it's not about me and them he talks about the polls - I cannot tell a lie

It is hysterically funny to watch this shit. Today it's about try to be nice because the polls.

Yamiche is going to make him blow it now - watch. We've done a really good job about testing = come on Yamiche ask him why he said anyone who wanted to be tested could be tested - that is the question.

[spiderpig]

128. He is the stupidest person alive.

No contest, although I'm not 100% sure he's still alive.

[malaise]

134. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Come on Yamiche - ask him why he called it a Democrat hoax and a fake news hoax?

[Totally Tunsie]

165. Thought I heard a clap of thunder when he said "I cannot tell a lie",

but it was only the echo of the collective "guffaw" by the inhabitants State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations.

[malaise]

166. I was hoping for that clap of thunder

[Totally Tunsie]

169. A lightening strike might do a better job.

[malaise]

170. Indeed

but the thunder will be confirmation

[Politicub]

167. He doesn't come across as a sane person. He kept going off on

tangents and rambling when asked simple question.

God, I love Yamiche. She intimidates the hell out of him.

[malaise]

168. He is a raving lunatic

who has bullshitted his way to the top - sadly a deadly pandemic will be his last jig - this one is almost up

[uponit7771]

124. Those maps don't explain availability and throughput

[uponit7771]

125. More promises on testing

[malaise]

126. He can't help himself

It always comes back to him. He is seriously sick. Oh it's not personal - it's not fair.
Go Yamiche!!

[jls4561]

138. malaise - I must praise you. Your daily shitshow thread is the funniest thing in my day

Also, I agree with you - total props to Yamiche!

[malaise]

142. If we don't laugh we'll cry

It's unfuckingbelievable the shit he tries to sell. It's the media's fault. He did the right thing or a million people would be dead. This fucker is too sick but he's gonna win a landslide (in his fucking mind).

[uponit7771]

127. You're "here" ... cause Russia helped you !! bastard ... you bastard

[bullwinkle428]

129. Crazy racist grandpa, in the late stages of dementia, repeating stories for the 100th time.

[malaise]

136. Here comes Miss OAN - that's Speaker Pelosi you ignorant asshole of an idiot

Fuck off with your shit

[uponit7771]

137. ah, that's what it sounded like ... just damn

[underpants]

144. Tell us Miss Arkansas about your relationship with Miss Vermont

That sounded like a beauty pageant question.

[malaise]

145. Damn you made me laugh

now remember he is saving you from over one million dead. Just fuck those 60,000 - he saved you.

[underpants]

157. Notice she wasn't seated

Wouldn’t be surprised if she slid in (again) so he could call her

Her question was SOOO a pageant question

[malaise]

158. Every one of her questions to date

[whistler162]

130. Joe Biden should thank him

after the November election for providing the Biden campaign with so much free advertising!

[underpants]

146. Donnie Deutsche (sp?) said the same this morning on Morning Joe

He said if he was asked to be part of the Biden campaign he’d say “You don’t need me. He’s giving you everything you need every day”

[uponit7771]

131. LOFL ... get it girl, Yamice got him going again !!! lol

[IcyPeas]

132. Trump says "I cannot tell a lie"

Trump says "I cannot tell a lie" and then lies about testing (he claims the US has done more testing than all other countries combined, which is not true)

Link to tweet

[malaise]

139. The joke of the century

They impeached me wasting time - they should have been looking at China. This is the pivot for the campaign. Blame the Dems for China

[nolabear]

133. And around and around and around he goes.

Honestly they aren’t going to get what they’re fishing for unless it’s just another angle on crazy.

Although I do love me some Yamiche.

[Alex4Martinez]

135. It's groundhog day all over again....

Every day, same set of lies.

[spiderpig]

141. Yamiche is calling him on his BS

You go, Yamiche!

[malaise]

143. She should have asked him two more questions

Why did you call it a hoax and why did you say anyone who wanted a test could get a test.
Now he's trying to downplay all these deaths. I hate this man.

[spiderpig]

150. If circumstances weren't so dire, I'd find it hilarious how much he hates and fears

NANCY PELOSI!

He can't resist throwing her name out like she's the debble incarnate.

[malaise]

151. I still find it hilarious

She lives rent free in his head

Brian is giving a good summary

[IcyPeas]

147. 43,458 deaths

that's equivalent to 102 jumbo jets.

[uponit7771]

152. omg

[RhodeIslandOne]

148. He's thirsty for the OAN bimbo.

Rambled randomly for close to ten minutes to her stupid question.

[underpants]

149. Hart Island NY...he came *this* close to empathy and compassion

He got right there ....and then took credit for 2 million people not dying.

This. Close.

[Yonnie3]

153. "I cannot tell a lie"

If he were Pinocchio his nose would a reach from here to the Sun.

[malaise]

155. That was hilarious - I laughed so loud, I scared one of the cats

[underpants]

154. Fox News - cut to 22M out of work, oil prices down, video of freedumbers protesting

Martha MacCallum is the host.
“We’ll look to the middle of the country tonight...”
“Here are some more numbers for you tonight. Forty one thousand dead....this new poll shows that 76% of people polled do not know anyone who has died from this virus”. Gov. DeWine in now.

[malaise]

156. 43,000+ dead

and climbing

[Politicub]

171. And about 2,000 more each day, plus or minus

And that number will increase, I predict, based on the insane actions of red-state governors to reopen businesses. In Georgia, gyms, massage parlors, hair and nail salons, tattoo establishments and restaurants are set to open in the next two weeks.

Massage parlors, tattoo parlors, and hair and nail salons? I thought that was a bad joke since those are very high-touch, close-contact businesses.

[malaise]

172. They want people dead

That's my stake
