Okay, Trump is walking back his promise to bar reporters from the GOP convention.

They admitted that on Saturday they did say no reporters.  But, hell, Sunday is a whole different day.

“Two RNC officials insisted Sunday that they are still working through the logistics and press coverage options,” the Post reported before quoting one spokesperson stating, “We are still working through logistics and press coverage options.”

Look, I wouldn’t go out and buy and popcorn to watch the GOP National Convention until the morning of the convention because I have a feeling that it’s gonna be an hour by hour thing.  I’m thinking maybe this isn’t a real organized event.

Oh well, at least we can count on Trump not showing his tax returns.

Stunning announcement.

No reporters?  No tv coverage?

Tens of people showed up at the Trump rally but they’ve progress from adding stick figures.

Full size here.

You knew it was coming once the polls started turning.

You know, I think the appropriate reaction to this is not to get angry or outraged.  This chubby little tin pot craphole country dictator does not have the authority to postpone the election and no one in congress – except maybe Jim Jordan and Louie Gohmert – would go along with him.

Make fun of him.  Laugh at him.  He’s out of his mind and people know it.

One other thing, Herman Cain died today.  He wasn’t a bad man, just a confused man.  He was a member of Trump’s party.  Two hours after the announcement of his death, Trump had tweeted nothing about Cain’s death but he did have time for this:

I’ll be watching the memorial service for John Lewis today.  I want to hear real presidents speak.

Well, there are dog whistles and then there are water cannons aimed at your ears …

Yes, we will build a wall around Whitetown and only let poor people come in during the day to clean your house or mow your yard. They work cheap to support your dream.

The other day he talked about something called a “suburban housewife.”  Does anybody know what that is?

Now he’s just become creepy.

Thanks to Deb T for the heads up.

Okay, so you know how Dr. Louie diagnosed Rep. Louie’s Coronavirus?

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) mused on Wednesday that he could have become infected with COVID-19 by wearing a face mask.

“It’s really ironic because a lot of people have made a really big deal out of my not wearing a mask a whole lot, but in the last week or two, I have worn a mask more than I have in the whole last four months,” Gohmert explained.

“I can’t help but wonder if by keeping a mask on and keeping it in place, if I might have put some germs, some of the virus on the mask and breathed it in,” he speculated. “I don’t know but I got it.”

So nobody told him he needed a clean mask and that getting one out of the bathroom trash can to save a few bucks is just not right?

Louie just cannot be wrong or ever make a mistake.  Sound familiar?

And here’s where I put in a plug for last night’s FrontLine on PBS.  It’s on conspiracy theories, and I learned some stuff I didn’t know.  You can stream it for free.  It’s an hour. My kid is handsome.
