Trump tried to get a reporter to remove his mask at yesterday's press conference, and was disappointed that the reporter wouldn't endanger himself and others at Trump's request.

Why does Twitter leave phony pictures like this up, but take down Republican/Conservative pictures and statements that are true? Mitch must fight back and repeal Section 230, immediately. Stop biased Big Tech before they stop you! @HawleyMO (Picture of Mitch in a Russian uniform in link) https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...01563868479490 |

Fredo’s got a convicted lier for a lawyer, who may be going back to jail for an even longer time - additional lies to Congress. Many more tapes of him with Fredo and other media scum reporters. Reveals how deranged & sick they all are! |

Great! Biden is finally being forced out of his basement. Now you’ll be able to see what is going on “up there”. He may do some “limited” campaigning. Basement Biden is no longer playing well in the Polls! If Biden’s Polling wasn’t going down, and fast, he wouldn’t be going to Pittsburgh. |

True! Quote Tweet thebradfordfile™ @thebradfordfile President Trump saved the GOP. I would much rather watch a Trump rally than an NBA game. And it's not even close. |

Suburban voters are pouring into the Republican Party because of the violence in Democrat run cities and states. If Biden gets in, this violence is “coming to the Suburbs”, and FAST. You could say goodbye to your American Dream! My Campaign spent a lot of money up front in order to compensate for the false reporting and Fake News concerning our handling of the China Virus. Now they see the GREAT job we have done, and we have 3 times more than we had 4 years ago - & are up in polls. Lots of $’s & ENERGY! |

The Democrats, together with the corrupt Fake News Media, have launched a massive Disinformation Campaign the likes of which has never been seen before. They will say anything, like their recent lies about me and the Military, and hope that it sticks... But #MAGA gets it! Big Ten Football is looking really good, but may lose Michigan, Illinois, and Maryland because of those Governors’ ridiculous lack of interest or political support. They will play without them? |

IF the Trump campaign is broke, it's because it is paying top lawyers to drag out a pile of hopeless cases for Trump.

That would be what the story sounded like at the beginning. After retelling it a number of times, Trump would add that there was someone with COVID-19 present in the room, but when the virile men took their masks off that person was cured.
After a few more retellings, Trump would add that a Democrat saw all this and said “who is this man who can cure diseases - surely he must have been sent by God, Himself.” |

I don't know if the reports about his campaign being broke are true, but I sure would like to think that the smart money is no longer willing to pour millions into his campaign coffers. I'd love to see him playing defense from now until November.
And now he's blasting top military brass, which I just don't see as a winning position. Remember Sarah Huckabee Sanders defending John Kelly as a 4-star general? I don't know why Trump's picking a fight with him; he hasn't even said anything but his silence is kind of telling. Why the heck is Trump attacking military spending on weapons systems etc.? Isn't he the one constantly pushing for increased military spending? Is his plan to have the military available as his own private police force in the U.S.? |

The Bible signed by President Donald Trump after a photo op outside a Washington, D.C., church has been listed for sale.
The memorabilia company Moments in Time is advertising the autographed Bible for $37,500, although it’s not clear how it ended up on the website, reported TMZ. https://www.rawstory.com/2020/09/bib...sale-at-37500/ Trump signed a bible!! |

I'm going with firing though I'm not clear on if Trump has the authority. Since the Post Office Board of Directors, appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate hire the PMG, I would think only the board could fire him.
Trump can't be pleased with how DeJoy endorsed mail in voting in his Senate testimony. It also might be useful for Trump to remove DeJoy to disrupt the working of the Post Office during the mail-in voting period. |

Once at a rally Trump passed around a basked with only two bottles of antibac and five face masks, and it was enough for the whole congregation of Trumpkins!
...should I make the punchline that there were fewer than five people at the rally, or that trumpkins think they catch fire if they wear masks? |

Trumpspeak to English Translation: If Biden is elected, more Black people will move into the suburbs because of low-income housing. And you know what what those people are like (wink wink). Your property value will go down and crime will go up. Unless you want to see your big, beautiful white suburbs turned into inner city slums, vote Trump!

Because of the China Virus, my Campaign, which has raised a lot of money, was forced to spend in order to counter the Fake News reporting about the way we handled it (China Ban, etc.). We did, and are doing, a GREAT job, and have a lot of money left over, much more than 2016.... ....Like I did in the 2016 Primaries, if more money is needed, which I doubt it will be, I will put it up! |
