So,you agree. Between 3rd January and March 10 th, Trump banned Chinese people from flying in or out of The USA if they were not related to an American citizen?
And that, it was not specifically Trump,but rather Trump's administration that disbanded the pandemic response team.
I wish OJ had had you as his lawyer.

Partly because it was disbanded in 2018 but was reformed immediately within a different Government department.

Why,these are your arguments,as pathetic as they are?
Some of the members were absorbed into the national security council. But ,the pandemic response team was gone.
If you are going to build a defense of trump,build one.
If not, go away and maybe write a book with no words just emojis.

Wondered how long it would take for you to refer to US having highest death toll. You just shot your whole defense of my per capita figures in the foot. Pity really because you were doing ok unlike the rest of your of your gang.

Anyway it’s Mother’s Day today do I got way nicer things to attend to.

He does seem to open his mouth before he thinks about what he is saying. In this case, I don't think it was a deliberate slur against the speaker. Just in his head he was thinking, this is a Chinese looking woman, and that put the thought about China into his mind, and out it pops without any consideration. And then he knows he has done something really stupid so he scurries off. It's not a suitable way to carry on for the head of state of a nation.

His tantrums are hilarious :lol: Well, they would be if he was joking (or being 'sarcastic'). But the fact that he is serious and so deluded is rather tragic.

While I don’t side with the insinuation by some that he mentioned China because of the woman’s ethnicity, his general incompetence is truly breathtaking. A total stain on the office of President.

I’m sure the lady was American. I have posted on this thread previously that her appearance is Far Eastern which is why Orange Dons “unconscious bias” made him mention Chiiiiina...

No, Einstein, you're the one doing the assuming and it's such a blatant stereotype from a smug, virtue signalling, morally superior liberal. You don't know what Trump was thinking. Your post, however, reveals that you think anyone of far eastern appearance is Chinese. Caught with your pants down 😂

Your man Johnny Orange Trump isn’t fit for office and disgraces himself daily. Face up to the fact and you’ll feel a whole lot better. You might even find yourself able to post on other threads!!

For many years it has been a widely understood convention that using the Nazis (or specifically Hitler) in a comparison is a sure way of losing an on-line argument. I must say that I am starting to feel the same way about the phrase "virtue signalling". It was briefly useful but now seems to be a way of saying "you're a loony lefty" without bothering to construct an argument.

I've constructed a lot of arguments for the "orange man bad" brigade over the years. Problem is they don't engage because can't think dispassionately when it comes to Trump and are convinced of their moral superiority. Hence I think Trump Derangement Syndrome and virtue signalling are pretty apt.

He didn’t put anybody in their place. He just shouted China again and walked away like the man-child he is.

This is the biggest fallacy about Trump - that he’s some kind of ‘take no crap’ brute who tells it like it is. In reality, he’s a bully who can’t handle even the slightest of questioning.

Was he this bad 4 years ago? I can't remember but when I have watched him recently I henestly feel that I am watching someone who is mentally ill...and I mean that in the literal sense ...not as an insult. I feel that he is suffering from some sort of degenerative condition.

Hi keith1879,

Good post IMHO:

"Was he this bad 4 years ago? I can't remember but when I have watched him recently I henestly feel that I am watching someone who is mentally ill...and I mean that in the literal sense ...not as an insult. I feel that he is suffering from some sort of degenerative condition."

I don't think he was (as bad) but then we hear/see the bloke every day now and three and a half years in office has revealed just how off the scale he is. I don't know whether what we see now is what he was or whether he has degenerated. He's certainly a case. :)

It's barely worth my time arguing with two losers. Looking forward to the day he is re-elected just to get your reaction.
He might yet be re-elected,but he'll have to turn the polls round,he achieved that in 2016,however he's now the incumbent,so it'll much harder for Trump to play the anti-establishment figure.

A new poll is out from Redfield and Whilton strategies testing differing levels of support in an ordinary election versus an exclusively vote-by-mail election (VBM isn't available in most states as of yet).

Ordinary VI:
Biden 47%
Trump 40%
Third party/write-in 4%
Undecided 9%

VBM VI:
Biden 48%
Trump 39%
Third party/write-in 4%
Undecided 9%

Congressional Democrats probably began their push for inclusion of nationwide VBM in coronavirus relief packages too late to be successful in this endeavour.
