How many things has Trump done that would have been the end of Obamas career? Or any other? Its too many to count.
So far the Trump people have been able to spin everything he has done and their #MAGits swallow whatever they are fed and follow blindly.
That's easy to do when you control the story. When you control the media. The masses tune into fox and listen to AM HATE Radio and they are good.
But something is different when people in your local communities start getting sick from the virus. When local news stations start reporting on the deaths of local residents.
Its easy to control two markets fox and AM Radio. Its a lot harder to control hundreds of local markets reporting whats happening in their local communities. All the sudden the truth starts getting out there.
This year looks like its going to be brutal for the economy. Thats trumps kryptonite. Add in lots of sick people and a crappy government response and its likely to be a perfect storm for WHATEVER democrat ends up opposing him no matter WHAT that democrat believes.
If you hate trump, vote. period.

(694 posts)democratic attacks, and the threat posed by unclean foreigners. The white house will portray their actions as the best
response to a crisis ever, which is being undermined by democratic, un-American forces.
Same as it ever was.

When the giant asteroid doesnt come wipe out planet Earth they say oh well the projection was right we just got the day wrong. Ive seen it over and over with varying details but I sure hope youre right

First time I ever thought there was a real need for a Truth and Reconciliation committee.

(24,653 posts)As more and more folks prep their tax returns this year, watch the screaming to start and then gain in volume. A lot of folks are in for unpleasant surprises, especially if they did not opt for additional flat dollar withholding above and beyond the rate at which their payroll service withheld taxes based on the allowances on their W4. Even claiming 0 allowances may not have been enough. Those getting hit with penalties for not paying enough throughout the year are going to be extra pissed.
