I have discovered something Trump is great at, and that is: "STUPID TWEETING." I have never seen

anyone make so many stupid and inappropriate "tweets." I am sure he has been told this before, but he is great at that one task: stupid tweeting. , Oh, & I got to add this

Did Trump commit an impeachable offense using this sentence?

Trump launched another attack on Democrats including Schiff over the Senate impeachment trial earlier on Sunday, saying on Twitter “he has not paid the price, yet, for what he has done to our Country!”

What price?..Is that a threat? How can that be interpreted?...What does that mean? What kind of "price" is to be paid?..Why say that?

You know, Donald Trump hasn't got a clue. Much too stupid to know, that what he really needs to do is to "shut up." at least for a while. .... That is it, and that is all.

Bernie's Demeanor is to divide not to unite.

..Bernie does not unite, he divides. Biden unites us against Trump.

..Bernie will by nature, create division. He already has. Of course supporters don't see that, because they haven't been there. I have been there. McGovern created division by his nature. Sure he was correct on important issues, but he was the wrong person for the wrong times. Bernie is a divider, not a person who unifies. He is also the wrong person for the wrong times..

I will never forget the returns coming in for McGovern..So disappointing. I couldn't believe it, but now I do. You want proof? Proof is in the one sentence below...

..Look at how Bernie has divided us?

What it will take to contain the Wuhan Coronavirus. CNN:

Warning, Very upsetting reading : author has significant experience in this area. further, this is about people dying due to highly contagious disease. (currently in China, but may have spread to other countries)
______________________________________________________________________________________

On this date 17 years ago, I was covering the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) virus for several months as it spread across Asia, eventually reaching 37 countries, sickening 8,098 people and killing 774 of them.

So, as I read the first reports of a cluster of animal-market related illnesses, with the first patient exhibiting symptoms of pneumonia as early as December 12, 2019, I had a chilling sense of déjà vu. By New Year's Eve, it was obvious something akin to SARS -- as it turns out, the Wuhan coronavirus is in the same family of viruses as SARS and MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome) -- was unfolding in China.

The mysterious pneumonia virus that emerged from a live animal market in China's central city of Wuhan last month has now infected far too many people, over far too vast a geographic area, to be easily controlled.

The Wuhan coronavirus -- part of a family of viruses that are common among animals and can cause fever as well as respiratory symptoms when transmitted to humans -- has been found in cities all over China, and travelers have since spread the virus to several countries, including Singapore, Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan and South Korea as well as Hong Kong and Macau.

The first American case -- involving a man in his 30s who recently traveled to Wuhan -- was confirmed outside Seattle on January 21, before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced on Friday a second case in Chicago. As of Friday, at least 41 people have died from the illness.(rest of article at above link)

I just found this out about Michael Bloomberg: He is a "self made billionare"

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/11/heres-why-mike-bloomberg-is-so-rich.html

...To make a long story short, Bloomberg came up with some kind of computer idea that allowed users to instantly access other users and information that could be used for financial transactions. (in what is called "real time" in the financial community, or in other words, RIGHT NOW!!!!)
.... A financer needs this information in order to make more money, Evidently, Bloomberg's ideas changed financial investments, and according to the article above, his system really "works." And Michael is willing to share his wealth with other candidates running for the office of President of the U.S.A. He has donated a lot of his wealth to various charities and other causes. He does not appear to be a selfish ass**le like someone who he is running against.

Trump lies about lying. He said this about himself, " Now with me, there's no lying"

..................Yes, he really said this...You cannot make this up, and you don't need to.........

Credit for this goes to .turbinetree.(turbinetree had it first, and that's no lie!!! )

CNN: ",..all doomed to be tabled along party lines..53 to 47.? Not one of them..not even one.

From CNN...".....The first real day of the trial saw House impeachment managers and Trump's legal team slog through hours of debate over attempts by Democrats to expand the scope of the trial, all doomed to be tabled along party lines by 53 votes to 47.

______________________________________________________________________________________

..Not even on key votes. I did not watch it last night. Couldn't take it. But not even one on any votes went with the truth.

Is that the way all the votes will be?...I don't know. Maybe later, 1 or 2 will see the truth..I doubt it. I sure hope that the puke party is destroyed for a while. (at least through this November)..

Why are there so many robo calls and scam calls..One reason only...They work on some people.

..How many and who? I don't know. But if they did not work, people wouldn't waste the time and money to set them up and have them made. They work and make lots of money for some people. A very few of the setter uppers get caught and have negative outcomes. Some do, but if a large percent got caught and paid a huge fine, then the scammers and crooks would do something else.
...Not only do they work, but getting money this way is very easy. Set up the call, get a call machine to make the calls, and then the people who identify and follow up. After a few tries, these tricks must work
..You might say.."They can't work, no one is that "stupid."
..Well, you are wrong. There are about 330,000,000 people in the U.S.A. and some are very smart, and some are very stupid. Some will not believe this crap, and some will believe. Why? 330,000,000 is a lot of people.
All kinds, all sizes, all shapes, and many degrees of believing ..You say, "That cannot be true..no one believes this stuff."
..Well ask the police who follow up on these crooks. Or others who study these people. There are more suckers than we think. New con ideas are being created as you read this. If these cons didn't work, then why are there people still using these cons and robo calls to make money. ..
...an example of what I am talking about...Many years ago, people hung their clothes out to dry in the wind. Now, very few do that, instead people use clothes dryers. Most people don't even know that others hung their clothes out. It is not used anymore.
...But the robo calls, and phone scams are used. Often, by many people in many different ways. So, they must work on some people and some people make lots and lots of money. If they didn't work, or weren't needed, there would be few if any.
...Another example...Have you seen any of those huge radio sets that look like a large piece of furniture in the living room? You know, the kind that existed in the 40s?..When the radios were "king" and TVs were a thing in the future. I guess not. They are gone, and people don't need them, or make lots of money on them.
...Again, if these cons and scams didn't work, and made lots of money, there wouldn't be any.

Why Biden is the best candidate..With Biden we win. Here is why:

..We must win. With Biden we will win. ......

..Because of the constant news...Every time that the word "Biden" is mentioned, most of people in the U.S.A.think about that Trump tried to get dirt on Biden by paying someone off

Now this isn't once in a while, this is what the word Biden is connected with..and impeachment. Further: the great majority of people in the U.S.A. think that this was illegal and wrong. Because of the news and the constant news of the impeachment, and cause of the impeachment, it does make sense to remind people as often as possible, that Trump is a crook and a liar.

...In a presidential race between Biden and Trump, the people in the U.S.A, will be reminded millions of times that Trump is a crook with the mention of Biden's name. And further, when Trump denies that he did anything wrong to Biden, (as he is doing now, and has done) Trump will be seen again, as a liar & crook.
________________________________________________________________________________________

..We must win. Trump must be gone in a year. With Biden, it will be an overwhelming win because of the three paragraphs above. You can disagree, and that is what this is all about, but those three paragraphs are the stones solid truth. Biden is an automatic winner.

..Of course the other candidates are qualified and would make outstanding Presidents of the U.S.A. but we must win to save this country. Those three paragraphs are the way to win. Yes, of course, 25 to 35 percent believe that Trump did nothing wrong...But if 65 percent think Trump did something wrong, and vote for our candidate, Joe Biden, there is no doubt that we will win, and win by a landslide. And we must get Trump out. We must win. With Biden, the country will be reminded every time the word is mentioned that Trump is a crook. And that is one hell of a message to send to the country. No argument, just one word. "Biden"

About Stuart G

I thought I knew a lot, and I found out... how little I knew about what I know. And how much more there is to learn, if I listen and read what others have to say.
