He also, incidentally, does not actually understand what "sarcastically" means.

I think this is worse than if he was serious. How can anyone old enough to be out of kidnergarten not know that it's totally, completely, and in all other ways inappropriate to make this kind of a joke on this kind of a topic. Against strong competition, I'm not sure this isn't the worst thing he's done as president. Last edited by Brian Swartz : 04-24-2020 at 12:46 PM. |

Come on guy, learn to take a joke. If the leader of a nation approaching 50K deaths and economic destruction can't joke about drinking bleach what can he joke about?

Similarly, I was thinking that he's probably done or said things that are morally worse, but if judging for just plain stupidity, this might be his high-water mark. I thought that months or years ago I had reached the point where nothing Trump could do or say could truly shock/stump me anymore, but this whole inject-the-light thing has really broken through that glass floor.

And he's so unwilling to admit mistakes that in the long quote he keeps going back and forth from, it was sarcastic, to, but it might work.

Not this "boomer" non-sense again. Stupidity is of all ages.

So not surprisingly, some wrote Trump a letter extolling industrial bleach as a cure-all for the virus:

Both most likely, but definitely a peddler

You know, I am already tired of all the "This is how crazy it was on the inside!" books that will come out after this presidency is over. People who are in a position to stop him or to leave in protest are sticking around, and they will then ease their conscience (and make a lot of money) by writing a book after it is over telling us that "we shouldn't put a crazy guy in charge again!" |

So we had a guy come in to my work to place an order. He was complaining that he was out of business (he rented cold drink machines to parties or something).
Then he went on a rant that a bunch of Obama appointees who never took an economics class was hamstringing the president. Then he mentioned that he wanted coronavirus now (instead of possibly getting it the summer when lockdowns might lifted) and asked if we knew any big-boobed women with the virus that he could kiss. Sadly I don't know any.

The bleach thing has been around for awhile in anti-vaxxer and autism circles. Think they use "bleach enemas" on their kids. Trump has dabbled in anti-vax stuff so not terribly surprising that he'd come across this stuff either online or through contacts. Plus the bleach thing has been around for awhile now in right-wing circles. It's a part of the Qanon thing. Alan Keyes and some others were selling bleach cures for other things too. I don't think it was something that just came out of the blue. |

The Navy is recommending reinstatement for Crozier, but the final decision will be made by the Sec. Def.

The conservative subreddit spent the bulk of yesterday trying to come up with what he was really trying to say only for Trump to claim he was being sarcastic.
It amazes me that with as often as he does this that they even bother at this point. |

So many people have spent so much time over the last four years trying to understand Trump's words and attack or defend him. It is very very simple: He's (1) not that smart, (2) impulsive, and (3) an external processor. That's it. That explains 99% of the "crazy" stuff he says. Boring but true. |

Trump announced today he would be speaking at West Point's commencement. This was news to West Point, who are now summoning 1000 cadets back to NY for the address after they were sent home because of the virus

His sister takes over. And from what I've heard, she's actually intelligent and has a good relationship with the military.

Trump has tweeted that he's not even sure why he's having these press conferences if all the media are going to do is ask nothing but hostile questions:
"What is the purpose of having White House News Conferences when the Lamestream Media asks nothing but hostile questions, & then refuses to report the truth or facts accurately. They get record ratings, & the American people get nothing but Fake News. Not worth the time & effort!" Americans are in quarantine or dying and he can't be bothered to hold news conferences anymore because he's not being praised enough for his altogether inadequate response to the pandemic. So that's why there was no news conference today and none scheduled for tomorrow.

In a different timeline Pence would be the President and his 65% approval rating would put GOP control of the House into play.

My theory: Trump's press conferences were hurting his numbers. And his people knew that. And they knew that they had to get him to stop. But you can't just tell the President (especially this president) that the problem is him. So I am sure that they explained it to him as "You are awesome, sir. But the media is distorting you, so you need to stop giving so many press conferences." So it would make sense that media hatred is at the front of his mind. |
