Is the bad and self-negating behavior of so many of Trumps enemies setting him up for an even more impressive victory in the fall?
As the coronavirus outbreak begins to reach its zenith, it remains unclear whether the measures taken to stem its tide will prove sufficient, insufficient, or an overreaction. What is certain, however, is that a number of individuals and entities have behaved shamefully and demonstrated no capacity for leadership or usefulness in this moment.
Nancy Pelosi: Gone are the mythologies that Nancy Pelosi was a pragmatic liberal voice of reason among the otherwise polarizing American Left, honed after years of paying her dues to the Democratic Party, as the mother of five dutifully ascended the partys cursus honorum.
It does not matter whether her political and ethical decline was a result of her deep pathological hatred of Donald Trump. Who cares that her paranoia arose over the so-called Squad that might align with socialist Bernie Sanders to mesmerize Democrats to march over the cliff into McGovern-like oblivion? All concede that very few octogenarians have the stamina and clarity to put in the 16-hour work-days and transcontinental travel required by a Speaker of the House.
Instead, all that matters is that for a nation in extremis she is now puerile, even unhingedand increasingly dangerous.
In retrospect, the public will remember how in fear and confusion she reversed course to spearhead impeachment, outsourced the task in the House of Representatives to its most incompetent and perfidious membersRepresentatives Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) and Adam Schiff (D-Calif.)and wasted weeks of the countrys precious energy and time as it was on the cusp of an epidemic.

Good post. All things considered, if Trump does not win it is going to be sickening beyond belief. The country will be lost.
I think the average uninformed voter will make the connection about the Wall making sense without really needing to know any specifics after this virus. I think the Wall is still a powerful issue and Trump deserves winning based on that one issue alone.
Completely agree.
It would be so very bad. That the idiots would basically destroy our whole way of life by choosing a puppet of the Globalists is mind boggling. All the speculation about a civil war coming about would end very quickly.
“My Dad worked in Dundalk for Taubmans. Mom worked for Glen L Martin. Havent heard that name in years. Lived in Essex in the 50s.”
Grew up in the 50s and 60s in NE Baltimore up the hill from MT. Pleasant golf course. Dad worked for BG&E out of Westport as a lineman until his first heart attack, then in the supply shop. I went to Poly. My fraud is a graduate of Parkville HS. We ended up in Colorado thank you US Army.
The narrative is set: EVERYTHING COVID-19 is “Trump’s fault”. If you can stomach it and don’t have a bad heart,take a look at the fake news media and sewer social media. It’s disgusting and much of it is Soros,Clinton,Obama and Chicom groups infesting with propaganda and agenda. The latest talking point is that Trump needs to be charged at the Hague for his “crimes”. WTF!!!!
My Dad worked at several different Taubman’s stores in the city. My family moved to a farm in Vera, Appomattox County, Virginia in ‘61. We had the tobacco planting beds and a couple of acres of garden. Dad worked in a shoe factory in Lynchburg, and eventually had the Texaco station in Vera.
After High School, I went to the Air Force Academy, but that was cut short after 2 years and I returned home to work as a transformer coil winder and eventually got a job with B&W as a computer operator/programmer. That took me to Denver, Dallas, and back to Ohio (mostly DOE and DOD software work).
That famous video showing Pelosi ripping the SOTU address over and over needs to be edited to include the POTUS warning about the virus in his speech.
You can bet that's in the arsenal, keeping their powder dry.
Nationalism is going to rise.
She is from Baltimore. He is from New York City, specifically Queens.
In 1969 the New York Mets (Queens) beat the Baltimore Orioles in the World Series.
Nancy is still bitter after 51 years. Give it up, Nancy! It's just a game.
(she was seen ripping up a Yankees jersey in the democrat’s cloakroom) /s
