The news will refocus on that, high Unemployment, the # of deaths from COVID-19 that will top over 115,000 , inflation to boot. That will rile Trump up.

Groceries are costing more if no one has noticed.

Is directly responsible. 40 million unemployed have no where to be today or tomorrow. Trump’s got to be shiting his pants tonight. I know he’s not capable of having feelings, but this is on him. There didn’t have to be 40 million unemployed if he hadn’t fucked up the coronavirus response. The extension of economic inequality on steroids, the Treasury giveaway to the wealthy, and the racism he brought to the surface is all contributing to the week’s unrest.

at all or unemployment. Remember when we lost 100,000 he was on the golf course.

He's a fucking evil idiot boy. His cult can F-up too. No empathy, he needs his ass to be gone. Or go to Russia, Putin must be laughing his head off, mission accomplished.
I'm just so upset.
