		Who knew 
Joe Biden 
@JoeBiden 
We are not prepared for a pandemic. Trump has rolled back progress President Obama and I made to strengthen global health security. We need leadership that builds public trust, focuses on real threats, and mobilizes the world to stop outbreaks before they reach our shores.

		 We have reached 100 thousand  deaths and yet jim is more concerned about what the dems should have done,  even though they dont control the executive branch  
 
Why hasn't trump commented on this death toll..greater than the Korean war Vietnam and the wars in the gulf and Afghanistan  and this happened in 3 months 
 
Yet Trump and many of his supporters think its over.  Let's hope it is ... 
 
but as  if on cue Trump moved on changed gears hes done with the idea of responsibility.. hes only interested in topics that make him look good with his base who still think this is still just a hoax

The Executive Branch Executes the will of the Congressional Branch.

"President Trump on Thursday morning said that the United States had reached a "very sad milestone" in exceeding 100,000 deaths due to the novel coronavirus, expressing sympathy for those who have lost loved ones."--from The Hill.

 Obviously, since Trump is still invested in finding cures, including vaccines, he doesn't think it's over, maybe that the first phase is waning.  He obvious feels a responsibility to fight the virus since he has spent so much time, effort, and political capital to do so.  And it's a hoax to say that he claims the virus is a hoax.  And it's kind of hoaxy to say he's responsible for 100,000 deaths, but claim he was not responsible for the good economy before the virus hit.

 No, actually he has spent his political capital claiming it was under control, that he had spoken with Xi, blaming anyone possible or not and claiming he took no responsibility. 
Meanwhile more than 100,000 Americans died of Coronavirus. 
His playing doctor on his reality presidency show is easily seen as the actions of a desperate narcissistic weak man with a total lack of empathy.
 
That’s why his “ratings” are dropping, why the downticket polls are tanking and why the anti anti Trump* fluffers are panicking. 
Keep flailing and claiming the Emperor has clothes. 
The big orange baby is babbling away on Twitter and proving you wrong.

		 Funny he went from 90 minute briefing about covid 19 on national television  
 
Yet 100 thousands deaths get a tweet 
 
Not sure how a Trump supporter doesn't see this for what it is..

 Unfortunately it's not untrue.
 
Wait till this afternoon when we see Tweety in his Rose Garden Presser try and pivot the attention from the virus to the riots. 
Just like in the 1968 race, when Roger Ailes told Nixon to pivot from Vietnam to the post-King riots. 
Nixon went full-on "law and order" not only about African Americans but also about the hippy proto-Bernie Bros in Chicago. 
 
Ailes knew the secret "law and order" was a code for race and for culture anxiety in 1968. The language, the "Silent Majority" crap, the aggrieved whining is 1968 all over again.
 
Tweety wants the coverage of burning buildings. Tweety wants the cops v protesters.
 
By later today, you'll see posts about law and order backing a lawless and orderless Administration led by a criminal.  Bannon, Miller, and the rest of the Trump fluffers ADORE this culture war.
 
They're ALREADY modeling how the rioting plays for campaign messaging, I promise you. 
 
Also, 103,000 Americans are dead.

You've already created another one of your models here, trying to shape the narrative in a negative light ahead of time.  You do that a lot.  I already saw a story posted today titled " 'Racist president': Democrats accuse Trump of inciting violence in Minneapolis."  The spinners are joining you in doing their patented vicious character destruction campaign rhetoric. 
  
 
Also, 103,000 Americans are dead. 
			
		 | 
	 
	 
 And you've already modeled this number for us as meaning that is how many Trump has killed so far.

 Now with 133,000 Americans dead, Tweety stays on message desperately trying to change the narrative to bad black men, riots in the streets and saving the Confederacy.
 
He starts the week by going after NASCAR’s only top black driver and criticizing the racing association’s decision to ban Confederate flags in order to generate more fodder for his ever declining base. 
 Donald J. Trump 
@realDonaldTrump 
Has @BubbaWallace apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX? That & Flag decision has caused lowest ratings EVER!

What do the Vietnam War and the War on the Corona Virus both have in common?
 
Donald Trump ran away from fighting in both....

 Now 60,000 more are dead, there are riots in the streets and Tweety is claiming to be the Law and Order President exactly as I predicted in May.
 
Remember what awful president allowed this American carnage to happen
