The official "let's impeach Trump" thread

Red said:
Sure. I understand. To some extent, I think Trump is using his time during these briefings as the only substitute he can find for the campaign rallies that can no longer be held. I am only interested in what the medical experts have to say at this point.

I did not expect you or I to agree, but, you know what, at least we can admit our differences.

Two days ago, a man I considered to be one of my very best "friends" sent me an email, telling me to never contact him again, for any reason. Told me I was mentally ill, because I had described to him the ways in which I felt Trump had failed us, and not just in regard to this crisis. While I could say, well, I guess he was not much of a friend after all, the fact is he is a very good man in so many ways, and we enjoyed many activities together. So be it.

Sounds like a snowflake who can't handle criticism of his God

I don't think there are many people who dislike Trump more than me. I hate having him as president.
Having said that, whatever he decides to do as far as either tanking the economy or overwhelming the healthcare system is going to suck. There is no winning situation for him or our country. So I'm going to try to not criticize him for whichever way he goes.
I mean if he decides to enforce extreme social distancing then maybe the healthcare system doesn't get overwhelmed (of course, maybe it still would get overwhelmed anyway. We just don't know) but then maybe the homeless community gets overwhelmed instead. Maybe the social worker community gets overwhelmed. Maybe the truck driving and food providing industry gets overwhelmed. Maybe the police departments and prison and jail and court systems get overwhelmed. Along with many other industries.

Every option sucks. I don't envy mr trump. I will try to give him a break in this difficult time.

Having said all that, I just hope that he uses his heart (if he has one) and good data and good ideas from his supporting cast to make the decision but I worry that he will simply decide what to do based solely on his ego and wanting to win the next election. I hope and pray that his motivations for whatever decisions he is going to make are the right motivations regardless of what the decisions end up being made (again, no matter what he decides it's going to suck)

This is what Democrats are fighting against:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2020/03/23/trump-coronavirus-senate-economic-stimulus/

Senate Democrats voted Sunday evening to block the bill from advancing, infuriating Republicans. Democrats have alleged the bill does too much to help prop up businesses without directing enough money to households, hospitals and health professionals. White House officials have acknowledged the unprecedented assistance the legislation would steer toward corporations, but they have said this money would help protect millions of jobs.

“This isn’t corporate welfare,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Fox Business on Monday morning. “This helps all American workers.”

Republicans want a bailout to corporations. Democrats don't. Mnunchin wants a $500 billion dollar slush fund to enrich Trump and be used as bribes for Trump's biggest *** kissers. Democrats don't.

I know this would require too much critical thinking by morons like @Heathme, but:
  • Why won't Trump exempt his businesses from these handouts?
  • Why do resorts, airlines, and cruises deserve bailouts? They're not as valuable to our economy as our largest financial institutions. Airlines have declared bankruptcy before.
  • So even if a few airlines go bankrupt, what's the big deal?
  • Why aren't companies held accountable for their business decisions? They did after all, receive gigantic tax breaks the last few years. Why didn't they create rainy day funds?
  • Why not focus on workers? Why do Republicans think corporate welfare is beneficial to workers but not worker welfare being beneficial to corporations?

Dude... Seriously? How many ****ing times must you be disappointed?
 

You mean, as opposed to the Republicans that also won't give on the wind/solar credits and are willing to tank an economy to avoid them?
 
Interview of Dr. Fauci by Science magazine. If he keeps talking like this, well, the boss's loyalty meter will go off I'm afraid.

Q: Most everyone thinks that you’re doing a remarkable job, but you’re standing there as the representative of truth and facts, but things are being said that aren’t true and aren’t factual.

A: The way it happened is that after he made that statement [suggesting China could have revealed the discovery of a new coronavirus 3 to 4 months earlier], I told the appropriate people, it doesn’t comport, because 2 or 3 months earlier would have been September. The next time they sit down with him and talk about what he’s going to say, they will say, “By the way, Mr. President, be careful about this and don’t say that.” But I can’t jump in front of the microphone and push him down. OK, he said it. Let’s try and get it corrected for the next time.
 

Dear Leader's brain is broken:



if this makes sense to you, you're as stupid as Trump is. And we're already seeing how Trump is leading this country. We're living through it! Yikes...
