He was on MSNBC earlier today (morning for them) and said it is up to hundreds

and he is a REPUBLICAN, albeit one of the very few 'moderate' ones left (Like Charlie Baker, the governor of Massachusetts)

I know -incredible !

Trump is a clinical sociopathological narcissist and an inveterate liar of biblical proportions

he bends reality internally to fit only what he wants, so he sees his own false projections when he gazes into mirrors

his life's mission is to obliterate objective truth and destroy reality

You almost start to think it benefits the billionaires to have a clown at the front -think Bush junior as well...its a brilliant distraction.

The last President that I remember who was intelligent and had genuine interests in the public at large was Jimmy Carter. But even if you look at the debates between Nixon and Kennedy, there was a genuine respect for the others view -all that has dissipated into childish insults now.

the only US POTUS's I rate (LBJ barely makes it, as he fucked up on Vietnam, but he was great socially and on civil rights, and I include Carter as he is a great human, but had a pretty weak presidency)

The first 7 were good or great, and then the bottom fell out, as other than Lincoln and the solid Grover Cleveland (often overlooked, but he stood out in the middle of a HORRID run of 8, post Lincoln and all the way up to Teddy Roosevelt, he also was the only split term POTUS in history), the rest in the 19th century were varying degrees of shit, as were the 8 before Lincoln, so 17 presidents, 2 good or great, 2 were too short to rank and the rest shit).

Number 1 POTUS in US history was Lincoln, IMHO, with FDR 2nd, Washington 3rd, then Jefferson 4th, then Teddy Roosevelt 5th, Jackson 6th, Madison 7. (JFK would be in there, but he was cut down too soon)

Trump is the worst in history (and if re-elected may well set the union up for a partial breakup), then Harding, then Buchanon, then Wilson, then Reagan The last two (Wilson and Reagan) rank high on most lists, but they remade the country horrifically IMHO, Wilson with the Federal Reserve and WWI, etc, and Reagan with his pushing in extreme oligarchic corporatism and destruction of the workers, plus the insane military build-up and the culture wars, and finally the 6th worst was Andrew Johnson (he fucked up the post Civil War US), and lastly, Nixon (who did a lot of good things, actual progressive moves, but was a crook at heart and injected the Southern strategy, that made the Republicans the party of racists) Dishonourable mention (and another one often ranked high) Truman, a mass murderer (atomic bombings, plus he started the CIA and the Cold War)

Willian Henry Harrison (in office for a month when he died, and Zachary Taylor, a little over year, and he died were too short of terms to rank)

Obama had so much promise, and turned out to be basically a corporatist very moderate Republican (like a 1970's, 1970's eastern Rockefeller Republican) and was a war monger. Such a shame.

The good or great :

Don't forget Kissinger lurking in the background - possibly the biggest mass murderer in history

Why no one mentioned Bill Clinton? 

I remember as 7 years old kid in 1999 hiding in the basement with all the others from his bombs

Trumps Covid 19 Press conferences;

He spent a total of two hours attacking the media and Democrats.

45 minutes praising his coronavirus response over 35 daily press briefings -

4.5 minutes on condolence for victims, analysis reveals

Clinton was a shit POTUS too

I just did not want to list all 45

Clinton was a war monger and also a DISASTER with his economic legislation that helped lay the foundation for the 2007-09 financial crisis, namely the repeal of Glass-Steagall and then the  re-legalisation of most all forms of derivatives via the horrific Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000.

One of the major cunts behind that, Larry Summers, who also fucked up the 2009 bailouts (he convinced Obama to not go after the biggest criminals in the banks, and also cut off aid to smaller firms in favour of the giant ones, JUST LIKE what is going on now under Trump, ffs), is now a chief financial advisor for that sundowner Biden.

Fucking yanks, they somehow always end up picking the true shit over and over and over. The worse your advice and policies are or were, the more likely you get a second, third, fourth bite at the apple.

good luck with that!!!!!!

it will come from the same pot of gold where the hundreds of billions in tariffs China paid since Trump said they had to (Pro tip, China paid fuckall)

he is the biggest shitehawk on the world stage

[Fulham Broadway 16,859]

A war on China has been planned since the US ringed China with 400 US bases and nukes. This extreme provocation is never reported. Australia's media drumbeat echoes the country's Vichy elite ("Beijing's true face unmasked"). Now China threatens a boycott. Beware the slide to war.
