At a campaign rally in Prescott, Arizona on Monday, President Trump attacked one of his favorite media targets, calling CNN “dumb bastards” for focusing coverage on the coronavirus pandemic that the president insisted people were “getting tired of.”
“You turn on CNN, that’s all they cover,” the president said. “Covid, Covid, pandemic, Covid, Covid. You know why? They’re trying to talk people out of voting. People aren’t buying it, CNN, you dumb bastards.”
Of the coronavirus, the president said “if you have it, you have it, you get better.”

In 2004 on election night the talking point was that GW Bush lost the election because of the economy stupid (again), within 10 minutes their lie was exposed and they realized that Bush was going to rally in the election.
Well, that’s better that calling our troops “stupid bastards” like Joe did.
No one listens to CNN anymore because it has become unbearable with years of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Their only viewers are maladjusted Trump haters.
Their views are not relevant and do not represent the views of the people who go to work every day, have no patience for whiners and run their own American businesses. And these people are all colors. They are down to earth, logical thinkers who are tired of listening to CNN and their creepy anchors.
I heard it, and it was AWESOME!
just like H1N1, does anyone even remember the swine flu, hardly ever mentioned“
I remember it well. Both myself and my daughter had it. I did 3 days in the hospital because of it.
I didn’t hear about it much on Commie news network though.....
Heck, your right! My Dear old Dad loved that show. I’m sure I laughed too, but probably missed out on the adult nuances of JG’s humor.
The virus failing to harm Trump and Christie hurt the fear narrative a lot. Ironically, the fear narrative will play a huge role in Biden losing. Democrat voters are convinced that they will immediately die if they step outside.
Their key constituents are people who cannot vote by mail: young people (don’t know how to mail a letter), blacks (not known for great displays of agency, much easier to pay preachers to run buses to the polls), hispanics (largely don’t speak English, don’t vote in great numbers anyway, postal service not a part of their cultural tradition).
That’s what I mean, hardly a peep in the media, I didnt even know there was swine flu spreading around. Didnt know how many Americans had it(over 60 million) but the commie media covered it up because it made their messiah Obama look bad
How crooked. I just listened. In context, Trump was saying about why they don’t ask ONE question about the corruption of Joe Biden. They are obsessed with depressing people and trying to make people believe the lie that COVID and the people that died are all Trump’s fault.
Both. Gleason had a segment on his show called “The Honeymooners”. He was Ralph Cramden, and his wife was Alice, and he would say both of those things to her. My parents, especially my father, liked that segment.
My mother’s favorite part was the dancing by the June Taylor Dancers.
Apologies for the thread slide.
MY MAN!!
They aren’t just dumb bastards. They are also toobinheads.
Gyms still shut, schools still shut, pools still shut. Lives and businesses ruined. All over .0006.
But SURGE, SPIKE, DEATH, INFECTION, CASES, etc. is way more exciting and gets better ratings.
President Trump is just warming up for the debate.
turned to Fox for a minute yesterday and Chris Wallace had 3 people, including Bob Woodward, discussing the what the issues were for Nov 3.
Wallace asked Woodward about court packing. Woodward slowly droned on, taking up time, claiming covid covid covid, before Wallace finally interrupted, saying time was running out, and that he was asking about court packing, not covid.
We have our own version of CNN Covid right here. Attention-seeking jerks who worship at the Covid altar by posting dozens of Covid threads every week with pages of bullshit “statistics.”
It’s impossible to go wrong with Jackie Gleason. :-)
And Pres. Trump does have that same “Don’t screw with me” vibe. Wouldn’t we all love to see him send CNN (along with their little Chihuahua Fake-shi) to the moon?
Good graphic. But, considering they were taken in a communist hellhole, with communist health care, they’re actually kind of believable.
