It’s a damn goat rodeo!

Oh Honey, this is getting fun, fun, fun.

Trump is speaking of the tragic case of an intern in Scarborough’s home office who had a heart problem and fell hitting her head on a desk.  Scarborough was in Washington at the time.

Joe had an answer

Scarborough at the time called that provocation by the president “extraordinarily cruel,” and issued a similar on-air response Tuesday after being alerted to Trump’s inflammatory tweet while broadcasting live.

“For your sake, as I’ve been saying for years — Donald, for your sake, and for the sake of America, you need to stop watching our show, OK? It’s not good for you. I think that might be why you go out and, like — you’re distracted. You’re tweeting so much,” Scarborough said.

“Why don’t you turn off the television, and why don’t you start working, OK?” he continued. “You do your job, we’ll do ours, and America will be much better off for that. Just go. Turn off the TV, Donald.”

I don’t even know what to say.  Seriously, y’all, I thought it would be all over when he made fun of the disabled reporter or the parents of a soldier who was killed.

I did.  I thought it was all over waaaaay back then.

But, now here we are wearing bathrobes to a goat rodeo.

So Trump tweeted his new motto.

And before you can say, “Nooo, Dude” not a URL.

We are getting good at this.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Okay, so I imagine you’re glued to the teevee watching for Dr. Fauci.  Whatcha think?

Meanwhile, go peek at a man in panic – Donald Trump on Twitter.  He has yet to say anything true, inspiring, or comforting.

Okay, this is the number one reason why any Democrat is a damn fool to try to act like a Republican.

Donald Trump had nothing but praise of Louisiana Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards because Edwards is following Trump’s recommendations for re-opening.

President Trump, who is scheduled to meet personally with Gov. Edwards tomorrow in Washington, has repeatedly singled out Edwards, a Democrat, for his coordination with his administration, praising the governor’s leadership during the Covid-19 pandemic on more than one occasion. “In the case of Louisiana, we have a very good governor, John Bel Edwards, though he’s a Democrat,” Trump told Fox News.

You know what that kind of talk is? That kind of talk is to warn you that you’re fixing to get buckshot in the back of your head.

A three-page memo went out from the Louisiana Republican Party.  It advises Republican members of the state legislature to ignore the advice and recommendations of public health experts and undermine trust in Edwards.

Taken in its totality, the document reads like a guide to subverting public health policy and reframing the efforts to curb the pandemic, which has already claimed the lives of at least 1,800 Louisianians, as an “economic shutdown.”

It tells the legislature how to answer questions and even gives them a list of words to avoid – partisan, risky, budget, death/die – and words to use – empower, deserve a voice, responsibility, economy.

The GOP memorandum contains a series of factual distortions about the state’s response and falsely claims that Gov. Edwards’s order was made against the advice of the Trump White House.

They are going to accuse you of being anti-Trump even if you go along with Trump. So, you might as well follow science.

This is absolutely real.

Thanks to Thompson & Knight for knowing a violation of the law when they see one.

Thanks to Deb for the heads up.

Every once in a while, the Gameshow President inadvertently blurts out the truth during his streams of unconsciousness. It happened again this last week, when he admitted this:

“If we did very little testing, [America] wouldn’t have the most cases.  So, in a way, by doing all of this testing, we make ourselves look bad.”

There it is.  Trump has been promising millions of “beautiful tests” since February. It’s mid-May, and we’re still testing at extremely anemic rates.  In Texas, for example, our current testing rate is 2%, and that rate ignores possible multiple tests who have already tested positive.  Every single medical expert I’ve heard speak repeats the mantra that massive testing is mandatory for opening economies.  Without it, we’re all flying blind.

The problem? Trump is playing a gameshow and in this game, the smallest number wins.  The prize is another 4 years to tear the US apart and avoid felony indictments from the State of New York.  We’ve been calling this for months, and, once again Trump admits that he doesn’t want testing.  He’s literally risking millions of lives for a win.
