Reporter notes that people in the room are not wearing masks, this gets a round of booing, and Trump calls the room “a peaceful protest“ and that “political activity is an exception“ because Back Nines Matter.

Aside from the clear public health issues, the optics of Tweety addressing his country club members who pay at up to $350,000 to join while millions of Americans don't know how they'll cover rent this month as expanded unemployment benefits have expired is—an interesting choice.

How dare they be rich while others suffer. Hmmm . . . there's a familiar ring to that . . . like something from the past . . .like some violent revolutions that didn't work out that well.

I believe they now have some really rich folks in Russia, China, and France.

Yeah, those are pretty profound. His hairwork was intentional. The gut was probably not welcomed.

Biden's makeovers were deeper and more successful, although as obvious as Trump's gut.

According to The Daily Mail "Former Vice President Joe Biden has undergone numerous cosmetic procedures to alter his appearance, including Botox, hair transplants, and dental work, plastic surgeons say.

Surgeons say that Biden, 76, who polls show is the front runner in the race for the Democratic nomination for president, began to look noticeably different during the 2008 campaign.

That was when the then-senator from Delaware allegedly altered his hairline, filled in the wrinkles on his face and forehead, and installed dental veneers.

Biden is a totally phony humanoid. Nothing about him is real, not his body, not his appearance, not his ideas, not his politics, he is a total Democrat Party tool. He has not only shape shifted his body, he has shifted from phony "centrist, moderate" toward phony radical leftist who likes AOC type new green deals, gun grabbing, Marxists orgs like BLM, and who knows what else that he and his handlers think will get him votes. If he wins, he'll just be the figurehead tool that transfers power back to the Progressives and the real leaders of leftist Progressivism will be in control. And when that happens, Trump will not look all that bad.

Joe Biden is a devout catholic and regularly attends Sunday service.

The last time Trump went to church, he gassed peaceful Americans.

no, he’s not a devout catholic. by definition, you cannot be a catholic in good standing, and believe in abortion. he can call himself a devout catholic, that doesn’t make it so. sorry.

Yo Semites, Thighland, Minneanopolis, plosma, totallyterrytism, Ulysseus S. Grant, America's frownders -- these and more are all from Trump. And he and his lackeys are trying to convince you it's Biden who's cognitively challenged?

About 50% of Catholics support choice, that’s a lot of communion wafers being consumed by sinners.

The Rev. John Stowe has long been critical of President Donald Trump, and the Catholic bishop of the Diocese of Lexington did not hold back in recent comments about what it means to be pro-life.

In a live video chat July 31 with the International Catholic Movement for Intellectual and Cultural Affairs, Stowe said Trump is “so much anti-life.”
“For this president to call himself pro-life, and for anybody to back him because of claims of being pro-life, is almost willful ignorance,” Stowe said. “He is so much anti-life because he is only concerned about himself, and he gives us every, every, every indication of that.”

Stowe channeled previous comments made by Pope Francis in saying why Trump should not be considered pro-life.

“Pope Francis has given us a great definition of what pro-life means,” Stowe said. “He basically tells us we can’t claim to be pro-life if we support the separation of children from their parents at the U.S. border, if we support exposing people at the border to COVID-19 because of the facilities that they’re in, if we support denying people who have need to adequate health care access to health care, if we keep people from getting the housing or the education that they need, we cannot call ourselves pro-life.”

Hmmm

Are you saying that claiming to be a devout Catholic and regularly going to church absolves anyone from being a total phony?

When Christ threw out the moneychangers from the Temple and when he said that "many will seek to enter into Heaven, but only a few will be allowed" he was telling us that the majority of those professing to be faithful are hypocrites.

Biden is a hypocrite, a total phony. And his physical makeover with the Botox, hair transplants, and dental work makes Trump's "combover," that Rick referred to, look like amateur child's play. Biden is far better than Trump at the slick, political, phony, attempt to look like and be something he isn't.

But that isn't the important issue in the upcoming election. What we will be deciding is if the Progressive project of instituting an unlimited form of government will be made more possible.

0% of actual catholics support abortion. people who call themselves catholic can believe anything they want. but opposing abortion is a binding belief of catholics, and binding belief means exactly what it says.

i can say i belong to PETA, but if i also run dog fighting, am i actually a member of PETA?

Ok, so instead of the Church being a congregation let's say it's what its leadership says it is...the same leadership that has covered up decades of rampant sexual abuse within the clergy.

Nice one Jim.

You're getting angrier by the day. Now Biden is fake because he had work on his teeth? That's just really petty. Have you been reading Teen Vogue?

spence, you don’t know everything about everything. catholicism is made up of
binding beliefs and
non binding beliefs. the catechism is crystal
clear, opposing abortion is a binding belief, and you are outside the church for opposing that belief. it’s crystal clear grounds for excommunication. some bishops give a pass to famous people, just as some parents goal
is to be their kids’ friend instead of their guardian.

biden is an unprincipled
whore who wants every vote. so he and pelosi go to catholic mass on sunday and embrace convenience abortion on monday. he’s absolutely, 100% putting himself outside the church. that is irrefutable. unless you care about ideology more than truth.

Nice one Jim.
what % of current leadership has been accused? since you l
ow everything?

and if the entire leadership can be blamed for the actions of a few scumbags, does that mean all democrats like you, are responsible for the feral and violent riots taking place? if not, why not?

spence, again, show us you’re not a brain dead, thoughtless msnbc parrot. tell us some big issues in which you disagree with democrats? we’re all ears. you keep dodging that question. how come?

You started that whole hypocrite nonsense with your "Couldn’t happen to a bigger douchebag hypocrite."

To this alleged hypocrisy I replied sarcastically, "deep stuff."

To which Rick responded "Not as deep as his combover or growing waistline."

To which I pointed out that Biden's botox, hair transplants, and dental work were more thoroughly fake than Trump's "combover." And that Biden's fakery extended to not only being deeper than his physical phony self remodeling, but to his inconsistent ideas and his changing to suit the moment politics.

And to all that you come up with a fake accusation that I'm saying Biden is phony just because of his dental "work" (which was a total cosmetic reconfiguration of his teeth in order to look prettier than he is).

Your a real phony piece of mental work.

No abortion worries when your sticking your Johnson into to backside of your next alter boy in the line of many. Religion is responsible for so many deaths throughout time and it’s filled to the top of the chalice with hypocrisy.

so in your mind then, where does that leave biden? he acts very weird around women, has a rape accusation against him that’s a whole lot more credible than anything brought against Kavanaugh, now biden calls himself a catholic, a group
you say is filled with pedophiles and hypocrites. so given all that, on what basis can you vote for biden i’m good conscience?

have fun with that.

Well considering the lives lost over time in the name of religion, they all have a long debt to pay and it’s not paid in full or even close.
