SouthernCal_Dem's JournalAnderson Cooper calls Trump an "artificially tan man"
CNN’s Anderson Cooper opened his show Tuesday night tearing into President Donald Trump’s “meandering screed” in the Rose Garden.
Cooper said it was full of applause lines but that “this wasn’t some stadium packed full after supporters that come to cheer and bask in the glow of this artificially tan man.”
“His meandering screed was not closed to anything one would normally expect or accept of a president, but that shouldn’t surprise us. That he chose to do it in the Rose Garden steps from the Oval Office… that’s how numb we are.”

Holy Shit! Check out these insane fundraising emails and texts Trump is sending to his supporters...
President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign is coming under fire over campaign fundraising emails which some supporters are calling “gross” and “scary.”
Most of the emails — which typically claimed to be from the president himself or one of his children — attempted to shame Trump supporters for not donating enough money, and used manipulative language to guilt recipients into giving more, prompting social media users to make comparisons to “mob collections” and “slumlord” eviction notices.

Top Trump Official Blasts 'Cowardly' Dr. Fauci, Shares Cartoon of Him Drowning US Economy
White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications Dan Scavino publicly blasted White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci Sunday on Facebook.
Scavino posted a cartoon by conservative illustrator Ben Garrison which showed Fauci as a faucet flushing the economy down a sink, with labels including “Indefinite lockdown!” and “Shut up and obey!”
“Sorry, Dr. Faucet! At least you know if I’m going to disagree with a colleague, such as yourself, it’s done publicly — and not cowardly, behind journalists with leaks,” Scavino commented. “See you tomorrow!”

Trump Tweets Claim That CDC, Media, Democrats and Doctors Are All 'Lying' About Coronavirus
By Ken Meyer
President Donald Trump retweeted a former game show host who claimed “Everyone is lying” about the coronavirus in order to hurt Trump’s reelection chances and stifle the U.S. economy.
Here are the tweets Trump picked up from former Love Connection host turned online Trump-supporter Chuck Woolery.
“The most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19,” he wrote. “Everyone is lying. The CDC, Media, Democrats, our Doctors, not all but most ,that we are told to trust. I think it’s all about the election and keeping the economy from coming back, which is about the election.”

37-year-old Trump supporter dies from coronavirus after claiming it was just hype
Richard Rose, a 37-year-old man from Port Clinton, Ohio, recently died from coronavirus after slamming "hype" about the pandemic on Facebook.
Rose's family told Cleveland CBS affiliate 19 News the US Army veteran died at home on July 3, just three days after testing positive for COVID-19.
Rose's death has attracted attention online due to his public Facebook posts, in which he voiced support for President Donald Trump, criticized Black Lives Matter protesters, made jokes about rape, and accused Democrats of spreading false information about the pandemic in order to "rig the elections in their favor."
A tweet compiling a slideshow of Rose's posts, asking people to "watch how this unfolds," has garnered nearly 150,000 likes.

White House seeks to discredit Fauci as coronavirus surges
Source: NBC News
The White House is seeking to discredit Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's leading infectious disease expert, as President Donald Trump works to marginalize him and his dire warnings about the shortcomings of the U.S. coronavirus response.
In a remarkable broadside by the Trump administration against one of its own, a White House official said Sunday that "several White House officials are concerned about the number of times Dr. Fauci has been wrong on things." The official gave NBC News a list of nearly a dozen past comments by Fauci that the official said had ultimately proven erroneous.
Among them: Fauci's comments in January that the coronavirus was "not a major threat" and his guidance in March that "people should not be walking around with masks."
It was a move more characteristic of a political campaign furtively disseminating opposition research about an opponent than of a White House struggling to contain a pandemic that has killed more than 135,000 people, according to an NBC News tally.

Trump puts on a mask and the media cheers him like a child who wiped his own ass for the first time
Jesus Fucking Christ.
It's insane how low the bar is for Trump.
If he debates Biden without taking a shit on stage, the media will declare him the winner.
Never forget, the media is one of the main reasons why America is stuck with a failed steak salesman and TV gameshow host as president. They chose to spend their time covering Hillary's emails and his empty podiums.
Phoenix is running out of morgue space and they're looking into refrigerated trucks to hold bodies
American bodies piling up under Trump's leadership:
PHOENIX — Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego says one Abrazo location is nearing capacity in its morgue and may be requesting refrigerated trucks.
ABC15 spoke with Mayor Gallego Friday morning when she said the Abrazo location, which was not identified, is "near capacity" in their morgue space and they are looking at options to prevent problems.
<...>
"We are losing too many Arizonans," Mayor Gallego said. She continued to urge Arizona Governor Doug Ducey to require mask usage throughout the state.
"I'm heartbroken...it's been a rough week for me," Mayor Gallego said, citing that the White House officials have said everything is under control and that she has been asking for too much support amid the fight against coronavirus.

Report Shows White House Ordered Changes to Public Record on Hurricane Dorian to Appease Trump
Source: Mediaite
A critical report by Commerce Department inspector General Peggy Gustafson, first published by the Washington Post, reveals that then-White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney ordered changes to the public record on Hurricane Dorian in order to appease President Donald Trump.
In September 2019, the president falsely claimed in a tweet that Hurricane Dorian would impact Alabama, writing that the state would “most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated.”
The National Weather Service (NWS) in Birmingham took to Twitter to assuage concerns from residents, promising, “Alabama will NOT see any impacts from #Dorian. We repeat, no impacts from Hurricane #Dorian will be felt across Alabama. The system will remain too far east.”
In a scandal later known as “Sharpiegate,” the president then displayed a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) map that appeared to be altered with a Sharpie to show that the Hurricane would hit Alabama. The map on the NOAA website was almost exactly the same, but it did not include the added black line.
