Bwahahahaha. You think the captain is blindly reposting ALL that Trump vomits?

Swoop merely posts a choice selection.

Surprised you didn't know that.

If the Captain posted everything, the poor man would drop dead of exhaustion! And there'd be almost nothing else in this thread!

Ride, captain, ride on your mystery ship,
Be amazed at the friends you've got there on your trip.
Ride, captain, ride on your mystery ship,
Be aware of the things others just might have missed!

Well sorry that I don't follow Trump more closely. Anyway, if he wants to comment on it, sure, but just dumping 10 tweets in a row, with some not even being from Trump ? What's the point of that ? To propagate the stupidity ?

Actually, it's more of a public service that Swoop does for members that do not wish to visit Twitter. It is not spam.

Some are tweets that Trump re-tweeted. Sometimes Trump adds commentary/replies, sometimes not.

What the President is saying on Twitter (which he himself declares to be official communications and statements from The Office of the President) seems relevant to the thread topic. What the President finds interesting on Twitter and how much time he spends finding it, also relevant.

It shows what he is thinking and both who and what is influencing his thought.

Crazy Bernie Sanders is not a fighter. He gives up too easy! The Dem establishment gets Alfred E. Newman (Mayor Pete) & @amyklobuchar to quit & endorse Sleepy Joe BEFORE Super Tuesday, & gets Pocahontas to stay in the race, taking thousands of votes from Bernie. He would have....

....beaten Sleepy Joe in a LANDSLIDE, every State, if these events didn’t happen. Even if Warren just dropped out, he would have easily won. Dems did it to him with Crooked Hillary and now, even more so...and Bernie doesn’t even complain. VOTE for Trump on TRADE, better than BS!

Now that our Country is “Transitioning back to Greatness”, I am considering rescheduling the G-7, on the same or similar date, in Washington, D.C., at the legendary Camp David. The other members are also beginning their COMEBACK. It would be a great sign to all - normalization!
 
Biden is leading Trump among black voters 81% to 3% via new national Quinnipiac poll just out.

For context, 2016 was about 88-8.
 
Can't read it. Why the hell does one of the richest guys on the globe need a paywall on his damn newspaper?
How do you think he got rich?

I feel the same way about Bezos, BTW. But as a 30-year newspaper employee who made a living largely from the sale of ad space, I'm also sympathetic to the idea that some content is worth paying for.

ETA: Believe me, if you have to ration your WaPo viewing, this is probably not the piece to click on. It let me read it, but I've probably started the countdown on free content available to me.

Incognito or clearing history sometimes works.

I know that. But I specifically asked Captain Swoop if Trump actually said those words and his reply was "Yes".

That's why I asked him for a link and so far he has failed to respond.

Now I am seeing several mentions of Dr Dennison on this thread and some people still apparently believe Trump said his name when talking about hydroxywhatsit.

I'm one of those who believed it as it was put in quotes. Normally, I'd have immediately suspected the veracity of such a ridiculous statement. But when it comes to Trump statements, no matter how ridiculous they sounds, they've been proved over and over again to be true.
 
I suspect I may have started the whole Dr. Dennison thing, by wondering out loud if a doctor could get into trouble for prescribing a drug to a patient for no good reason, for which I apologise.

I've found no reference to a Dr. Dennison anywhere, other than on a parody trump Twitter account (which has definantly annoyed trump, because he's blocked the parody account from viewing the real Twitter account), where it was used as the name of the doctor who signed off on trump having bone spurs way back when.
 
Trump threatens to withhold aid to 2 states over expanded voting by mail

He's trying to use federal money as a weapon to prevent voting by mail in a pandemic.

He claims sending applications for absentee ballots to voters is "illegal" but on what basis?

According to Michigan's Secretary of State, the same thing has been done in some Republican states, such as Iowa, Georgia, Nebraska and West Virginia.

The federal government wading into how states operate their elections is no small matter, either. How each state determines its EC votes is their own affair. There are some relevant amendments in terms of suffrage and equal protection, of course. I doubt that is Trump's concern.
