Oh, the irony (pay attention to the lyrics)
Trump's MAGA Superspreader Tour 2020 event in Freeland, Michigan, is about to start. Follow for a video thread.
Calm, no panic!
Barack Hussein Obama, drink!
"He has promised to flood your state with refugees" -- Trump quickly gets to some barely varnished racism
"I think most of you are not middle class. You are upper class. You are the elite." -- Trump to attendees of his superspreader rally
Trump on coronavirus: "You see how good we are doing relative to other countries and other parts of the world, but the fake news does not like saying that." (The US has by far and away the most cases and deaths in the world. This is egregious lying.)
President Quid Pro Quo
"I say Shinzo, you have to do me a favor" -- President Quid Pro Quo Part 2
"Let's play Big Ten football" -- Trump is still whining about Big Ten football not playing this fall, as though that ship hasn't totally sailed already because of the coronavirus pandemic
"It's a resident of antifa" -- Trump suggests antifa is a place
"Success was getting very, very close to bringing us all together, and then we had to say let's take a timeout" -- actually Trump had just been impeached when the coronavirus hit
"Minnianapolis" -- Trump still hasn't figured out how to say "Minneapolis"
Here's the President of the United States comparing violence in New York City unfavorably with Afghanistan
A lot of people forget that Republicans are the party of Abraham Lincoln -- drink!
Trump says he doesn't know who Sen. Gary Peters is, but recognizes Michigan's other senator, Debbie Stabenow, from her hair
Trump is clearly reading the material on his teleprompter for the first time
The "Michigan Man of the Year" award Trump brags about winning in this clip doesn't exist. He totally made this story up.
your taxpayer dollars, hard at work
"Never speak well about our [military] technology, because you are giving away classified information. I just want to let people know we have the greatest systems." -- Trump
Trump can't remember the leader of UAE's name. He then brags about being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
"He's a smart guy. Very smart guy. Smart. We get along" -- Trump praises totalitarian dictator Kim Jong Un. He then notes that he also gets along with Putin (we've noticed).
TRUMP: "I had the leader of a very important country in my office recently ... and he said, 'Thank you, sir, you got rid of ISIS.' And I said, 'I was the one? You are giving me credit?' And he said, 'Absolutely' ... the man who said that happens to be the leader of Iraq."
More than an hour in, Trump seems to have lost his audience. His rants aren't getting much of a response.
Trump compares his response to the coronavirus to Churchill during World War 2, then says, "we have done probably the best job, certainly of any major country, anywhere in the world on the pandemic." (Again, the US has by far the most reported cases & deaths of any country.)
lol Trump is now promising to put a person on Mars in his second term. maybe let's figure out Covid testing first?
"Michigan gave us Motang"
Trump claims Biden "will destroy your protections for preexisting conditions," despite Biden being part of the administration that championed the law that protects people with preexisting conditions
"Together we will be taking back this country," the says the guy who has been president for nearly four years. And with that "YMCA" plays Trump off the stage in Freeland.
It’s a cult
