He can’t stop tweeting, giving us his opinions about when the virus will leave, and how well he managed the pandemic (The Chinese, meanwhile, are so far ahead of us that they have started vaccinating people in the Middle East and South America. Two doses, one month apart).
He will carry on about our racial protests and how his way to go about them is the way to do it (‘hit them hard, like animals’).
In his dreams, he sees himself being awarded the Nobel prize for facilitating diplomatic relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. An honorable mention, of course, would have to go to his son in law and advisor. Or maybe they’ll share the prize.
The fires in the West coast have destroyed homes and lives but is there a connection to climate change? Not at all. The forest service has to do a better job of keeping the land clean, he says.
And then, news about Russia’s efforts to interfere in our upcoming election comes up and what has he said?
Nothing.
Microsoft has documented efforts by the GRU, a Russian military unit, attempting to hack into our internet services, but our president has stayed mum.
Zippo.
He cannot stand up to Putin and Putin knows it.
On 7/16/2018, at a press conference in Helsinki, right after he’d held a meeting in private with Putin, Trump is asked by a reporter in the audience if he would ask Putin, who’s standing next to him, to not interfere in our elections, in light of evidence provided by American intelligence services.
Trump’s reply, ‘I believe our intelligence services… but I also believe Putin (and his denial that he had nothing to do with it).’
Yep, he said it. In front of the whole world.
For such a verbose person to not find words to comment on Russia’s renewed interference in our election process, is quite a feat.
And he is getting away with it.
Is Biden Harris waiting for a sign from heaven to call Trump on it?
Are they saving it for the upcoming debate in Cleveland on 9/29 and then bring it up?
Or will they just let Trump get away with it?
I don’t get it.
That Trump’s silence is being greeted by silence in his supporters is understandable, given their absolute devotion to their leader. ‘Why, surely, it is part of the conspiracy against him.’
But the silence on the part of Biden Harris?
I don’t get it.
Maybe they’re just waiting for the right time. What do you think?
