So basically he's going to give it all to his own companies, his buddies' companies, red states, and Florida.  Then bitch about how NY, NJ, CA fucked up their "Chinese Virus" response.  

It's almost like he's actively trying to destroy the union.

Thanks, Putin.

This should play well on Fox with the olds.  Die for your country--something Trump was unwilling to do every time he was drafted.  

Let's play name that fallacious reasoning! 

If you guessed false dilemma, you win. 

I didn't realize continuing to work from home meant "sacrificing the country" or ending our way of life forever. 

And these fucks need to stop pretending young people aren't dying from this thing.

for those not watching, someone from npr asked if there was anything in the stimulus package trump absolutely did not want in there.  trump's answer was that he was ok with restricting stock buybacks, and that some democrats and republicans were also in favor of restricting buybacks.

he couldn't name something the horrible democrats put in the bill that he thought was inappropriate.

Because the Rs wrote the whole thing. The Rs didn't have to trade any of their horses for this bill.

Fuck, every single day feels like a week at this point.

It feels like Trump has been president for a gotdamn decade.

Hey, "we" suffered through 8 years of Barack Hussein Obama, "you" can handle 4+ years of Donald Trump.

It’s a briefing on Coronavirus so of course we’re spending time talking about Boeing. 

Trump is just setting up his big decision concerning his 15 day intervention.  He is having to wrestle with huge decisions he must face next week.  Just hard hard decisions that only he has to make next week.  The dumb ass doesn’t realize we all know his moral compass makes this a very easy decision that he has already made. And...we (repubs. and dems.)  already know where this is headed.

Is this was Birx was waving around?  This is going to fix everything?  A mailer?   With no money in it?

It's the same design as the "15 DAYS TO STOP THE SPREAD" placard that Pence keeps waving around at these press conferences.

Yep. And thanks to trump and our terrible food and inadequate health care system, we will blow the world away in the number of American deaths that are coming.

But hey we’re the richest country in the history of the world! For now anyway. 

Kubrick was so right.

In a legal blow to the National Rifle Association, a New York state judge ruled that the gun-rights group can’t stop its former ad agency from cooperating with a state regulatory probe into the NRA’s financial dealings with its own top officials.

The ruling Monday came in response to a lawsuit filed in September by New York Attorney General Letitia James, whose office has been investigating the NRA’s compliance with rules governing nonprofits.

There's still a few days for this anti-social distancing wave to go the way of the "let's not watch the NFL" wave. They were so bold and proud at first, then realized so few people were on their side, not even their usual nutcase buddies. And sanity was restored. This is a tougher case because there are policy- and law-makers leading the rush off the cliff...but seems like sanity has a few days to make its case, and the evidence is only going to keep growing...

My working theory of the Shining is that Jack represents the caretaker (the white man) of the hotel (America), who is basically a contractual slave of the owners of the hotel (the ghosts who control the hotel, ie the top .01 percent of America, the owners). The owners turn his wife (Wendy, part Native American) against him by abusing his son (who shines, representing America’s potential) and then making his wife think he did it (he didn’t) they ply him with alcohol (hi Lloyd), seduce him to cheat on his wife with what turns out to be a hag. Grady (the English, not British, white man, notice the red white bathroom color scheme) on behalf of the owners gets him to murder Hallorann (the black man) and attempt to murder his own family. Why? Because his son and the black man shines. And they don’t want or need that in their own hotel. Don’t want to ruin the party going on for the very rich.

Kind of like trump and the republicans are doing right now to their very own voters. 

Anyway watch the movie again with those symbols in mind. The President (Stuart ullman)  even makes an appearance when he interviews Jack and tells him about the history of the hotel.

Thats my theory anyway.

You forgot about the part where American pork farmers metaphorically fellate the nation’s tuxedo rental industry.

It takes real balls to say with a straight face that old people are cool with dying so they're grandkids can have a good economy. I mean, shit. Dan Patrick might take the fucking cake for the most batshit statement uttered and we're really only in week 2 of this crisis. 

Or in other words, the golden god needs its sacrifice.
