The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: Old man yells at cloud, presidential edition.

It’s tangentially relevant given that some dude recently apologized for saying tone deaf which he went on to classify as ableist language. But, uhh:

What’s more, Walker’s apology has left me so confused. Was he apologizing to tone-deaf people, or to deaf people? Because they’re completely different.

“Tone deaf” means “relatively insensitive to musical pitches,” according to Merriam-Webster. Deaf means “lacking or deficient in the sense of hearing.”

They would instruct people to vote for Trump, no merging.

So we were on topic the whole time???

Trump dying and then Pence losing because too many culty Q electors refused to vote for anyone other than dead Trump would be cool.

I’m deaf. Don’t know anyone that gives a shit about tone deaf. But not capitalizing the D will piss a lot of deaf people off. Personally, it doesn’t bother me if you say deaf or Deaf.

This is good. Make him gasp for air live if he’s fine imo.

It is interesting that he cancelled his “live address” last night. Did he call into any of the morning shows today?

Yeah, so about Chris Christie:

If he was doing well you can be damned sure there’d be updates. Instead, radio silence and he’s 4 days in the hospital now. Doesn’t sound great.

Could be bingo time soon…Sharpies at the ready

Trump literally killing Chris Christie would really be the feather in the cap of one of the most humiliating associations in political history. Chris was one of the earliest endorsers of Trump, tried to get VP, was almost offered it, then was repeatedly humiliated in his attempts to secure a position in the administration. Ended up with nothing. Stays loyal and catches covid in service to Trump. Sad!

It did inspire one of my favorite opinion pieces from this debacle.

His were the eyes of a man who has gazed into the abyss, and the abyss gazed back, and then he endorsed the abyss.

Chris Christie has to be enormously likely to die or have severe complications from Covid.

Chris Christie is weird. I don’t get him. Well I guess I do - he’s basically just a craven political power chaser. He doesn’t seem to be a wild Trumper, nor completely a “true believer.” He’s a prick (see, among other things, the bridge bullshit), but I’ve seen him talk to people in an understanding, human, compassionate, reasonable way.

Also, he gets a bonus point for leading the legal online poker charge in the U.S.
