If Trump had done these two things, he would have won a second term in a landslide:

1) Pushed for more stimulus money to individuals.
2) Put on a mask and listened to scientists and doctors when it came to Covid.

That's it. That's all he had to do. Re-election was handed to him on a silver platter, and, in typical Trump fashion, he found a way to screw it up. I am literally impressed at how much Trump can screw up the simplest of tasks.

Simply a great speech!

POCKET VETO TIME!


The bill passed the House and Senate with veto-proof majorities.

Why do you want your boy Donny to get humiliated on his way out the door?

That was when everyone thought the administration supported it. How many Republicans will vote to override after a Trump veto?
The mind hungers for that on which it feeds.

Why would they change their vote to appease a dude who’s already been fired by the American people?

Because some of them lack a pair of spine. They are apparently afraid of his base. His approval rating among Republicans hasn't change much since the election or for that mater since he took office.

Donny literally just vetoed the NDAA. ANOTHER bill that passed with veto-proof majorities.

Knowing he was probably gonna veto it, the House was already planning to return on Monday to override it. The Senate returns on Tuesday to override it.

They’re so over him.

Stat from the CDC. 330,000 have died
with the virus, 17,000 died from it.
They ruined thousands of small
businesses in how many states
because of politics, not science.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

As to politics, this is at least a good learning exercise. Ever wonder how communist and fascist regimes get such compliance? How do the get people to rat their neighbors out? Well, you are living it!
The President is a fink.

Imagine how many of those 330,000 people would still be alive if Covid hadn't exacerbated the condition that actually killed them.

38,000 people died in car wrecks
last year. They would all still be
alive if they had just stayed home
that day. Ban all cars immediately!
Save humanity from itself!

Ridiculous. Just like shutting down
small businesses and making people
wear useless masks is ridiculous.
