    Another high mark for Trump.......or not....

    According to the exhausted and exhaustive factchecking team at the Washington Post, Trump’s rate of lying is shaped remarkably like the country’s exponential rise in Covid-19 cases.

    It took him 827 days to reach his first 10,000 lies, but just 440 days to reach his second 10,000 lies.

    Today America’s credibility has been contorted to protect the feelings of one man-child, not the security of a nation. That’s why someone like Anthony Fauci is so deeply offensive to the factory of fraud built inside this White House.

    Fauci is the most senior expert on Trump’s coronavirus task force, but he says he hasn’t briefed the president in two months. In that time, the daily number of new American cases has tripled to more than 60,000.

    Rather than deal with the underlying raging wildfire, Trump’s team set about attacking the man best placed to quell the inferno. According to multiple news organisations, the White House sprayed out its oppo research about all the times Fauci supposedly got things wrong.

    It’s possible that the captain of the Titanic felt equally aggrieved by the quality of the previous week’s shipping forecast. But history has not looked kindly on his care of human souls nonetheless.

    After three decades in charge of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, Fauci is clearly an expert in at least three things: science, politics and the sophisticated art of not giving a flying flask.

    Fauci dares to say that America is not, in fact, doing great, even when the red baseball cap claims otherwise. Even when all of the president’s minions tell him he looks awesome in a face mask.

    Oh my! That hit piece is right out of one of Joe oft used sources---that is going to sting

    Unfortunately, I was watched a trump verbal ramble yesterday from the Rose Garden---anyone who watched that and doesn't question trump's mental state needs a reality check---that dude was on a winding trail without a GPS---sad

    The Guardian or the WaPo is one of my oft used sources? Have you lost your mind? If Trump says the sun came up in the east yesterday, that will be counted as a lie in their tallies.

    Btw, I thought Trump’s review of Biden’s speech with his insane enviro-lunacy promises was dead on.

    Do you even understand what The Guardian is? Surely you understand what Bezos’ birdcage liner is.

    I have to confess ignorance on the Guardian.
