Du har jo ikke tatt feil når du ikke har kommet med noen påstander..

Ja paret har hatt en litt trøblete historie. Wanda er bl.a. tidliger arrestert for vold og har flere ganger ønsket skillsmisse. Endelig fikk hun 'skillsmissen' hun lenge ønsket. Bonusen var at hun også kunne gi trump æren for det

Det har du rett i, men eg insinuerte at det kun var republikanere som var dumme nok til å ta Trumps ord som god fisk.. (Som fortsatt er sant, dog ikkje i akkurat denne saka)

Litt vanskelig sak akkurat denne, då ho virker å ha dratt ein spansk ein på mannen, istaden for å faktisk være dum nok til å følge Trumps råd...

Virker som ho såg på det som ein bonus å kunne gje Trump æren ja. Men selvfølgelig uskyldig til det motsatt er bevist...

Heldigvis virker det som det ikkje finnes eksempel på folk som har tatt Trumps medisinske råd som god fisk.. Og menneskeheiten har reist seg litt i skyggen av dette...

Det er en lang liste men jeg finnes ikke imponert -- da jeg har ryddet ut av en ganske full oppvaskmaskin i dag.

Jeg strakk ut armen.

Jeg grep håndtaket.

Jeg dro opp oppvaskmaskinen.

Jeg dro døren lengre bak.

Jeg la døren flatt ned.

Jeg forsikret meg om at den var åpen og stabil.

Jeg bevegde meg opp igjen.

Jeg strekte ut hånden.

Jeg strekte ut hånden lengre.

Den møtte øverste skuffe av oppvaskmaskinen.

Jeg lukket hånden rundt den.

Den var varm men ikke for varm.

Jeg begynte å åpne den.

Jeg dro videre.

Jeg dro raskere.

Jeg begynte å sakke ned, da skuffen nesten var åpen.

Jeg lot den gå sakte det siste stykket.

Skuffen stoppet.

Jeg flyttet hånden over på et glass.

Hånden min møtte glasset.

Jeg lukket hånden rundt glasset.

Jeg løftet opp glasset.

Med den andre hånden rekte jeg meg etter skapdøren.

Jeg grep rundt håndtaket til skapdøren.

Jeg dro.

Skapet åpnet seg sakte.

Jeg la merke til at det var feil skap, da vi akkurat har kjøpt nytt kjøkken.

Veldig flott kjøkken.

Fra Ikea.

Det kostet en liten årslønn.

Av overskuddet, etter utgifter og sparing.

Jeg bevegde hånden over på neste skapdør.

Jeg måtte ta et steg lengre bort.

Foten min møtte gulvet.

Hånden min møtte skapdøren.

Jeg dro til.

Den gled opp.

Jeg kjente skapdøren slo litt mot dørstopperen.

Jeg strakte glasset mot hyllen.

Jeg skubbet bort glass som stod der fra før.

Innover.

Glassene skled til siden, og noen innover.

Jeg slapp glasset.

...og slik fortsetter historien om hvordan jeg ryddet ut av oppvaskmaskinen.
Den ville vært 70 ganger så lang -- da det var 70 gjenstander inni, men jeg stopper etter første del -- altså 1 : 70 av arbeidet jeg gjorde.

...og så kan du legge til at min bror ryddet ut av en annen oppvaskmaskin, og at svigermor ryddet ut av annen, min andre bror sin kone en fjerde, og en kamerat av meg en femte.

Det ville blitt en bok om vi skulle gått gjennom alt arbeidet vi gjorde med å rydde ut av oppvaskmaskiner bare i familien.

---

Det eneste spørsmålet er:
Hva ble resultatet..?

Ingen av oss knuste noe.

Om Trump var en del av familien, så ville hans arbeide resultert i at kniver og gafler ligger om hverandre, glass står i feil skap -- mange ting bare mangler, det står skitne og rene ting igjen inni oppvaskmaskinen om hverandre, døren til oppvaskmaskinen er fremdeles åpen. Det lukter tiss av vasken, og det er tydelige spor av glasskår langs veggene og oppvaskmaskinen har en sprekk i displayet.

Så hvordan stiller Trump-supporterne seg til nyheten om at Putin og Russland har satt dusør på amerikanske soldater i Syria, uten at Trump har kommentert dette eller gjort noe med det i det hele tatt?

Vi har jo alltid visst at han har en soft spot for Putin. Bare utrolig å se akkurat hvor soft den er.

En ny video fra før rallyet i Tulsa viser ansatte i Trump-kampanjen fjerne råd om sosial distansering på arenaen. "Do Not Sit Here"-klistremerker som BOK Center plasserte på annethvert sete ble tatt bort. Tulsa hadde som kjent en voldsom økning i smittetilfeller i dagene før rallyet.

Video shows workers removed social distancing signs before Trump Tulsa rally

Sitat

President Trump’s reelection campaign removed thousands of stickers from seats intended to encourage social distancing in the BOK Center in Tulsa, Okla., where the president held a campaign rally earlier this month, according to multiple reports.

The BOK Center purchased 12,000 stickers that read “Do Not Sit Here, Please!” in an effort to keep seats open between attendees amid the coronavirus pandemic. On the day of the June 20 rally, event staff had placed them on seats throughout the 19,000-person capacity arena.

Individuals with the Trump campaign then directed event staff to stop using the stickers and removed them, an unnamed source confirmed to The Washington Post. (...)

Doug Thornton, executive vice president of ASM Global, which manages the BOK Center, told Billboard that, “They also told us that they didn’t want any signs posted saying we should social distance in the venue.”

“The campaign went through and removed the stickers,” he said.

Trump har innsett at han kommer til å tape.

Quote

The president has privately come to that grim realization in recent days, multiple people close to him told POLITICO, amid a mountain of bad polling and warnings from some of his staunchest allies that he's on course to be a one-term president.

Mangel på testing, og politisk vilje til å feie dødsfall under teppet, fører også til langt lavere tall på Corona-døde enn realiteten, så dødstallene må justeres -- før det å anslå dødsraten basert på antall smittede nærmer seg vitenskap

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/04/28/us/coronavirus-death-toll-total.html

Og igjen er begge deler forårsaket av mange på testing.

Men Trump er ikke rasist, fordi han har ikke personlig gitt nazi hilsen eller lynchet en afro amerikaner.  Som er de eneste gyldige kriteriene for å være rasist. 

[Snikpellik]

Trump tweetet sin "motstand" mot poststemmer og kom med feilaktig informasjon om det igjen i natt, så jeg søkte opp litt i hvem i hans krets som faktisk har stemt via post de siste par årene, eller nylig. Det viser seg å være ganske mange:

• Donald Trump selv
• Mike Pence - visepresident
• Bill Barr - justisminister
• Kayleigh McEnany - Press Secretary i WH
• Brad Pascale - rådgiver
• Ivanka Trump - datter og rådgiver
• Melania Trump - førstedame
• Alex Azar - helseminister
• Ronna McDaniel - leder i RNC
• Kellyanne Conway - rådgiver
• Jared Kushner - svigersønn og rådgiver

Nesten så man skulle tro at det var helt greit å stemme via post så lenge man er republikaner, men når resten gjør det så er det "fraud".

Nå er det jo heller ikke det som er argumentet, det er ingen som hart tatt til ordre for å avvikle absentee ballots som er helt nødvendig når man oppholder seg elsewhere o.l., men det er noe ganske annerledes enn å innføre allment postvalg [uten sikkerhetsmekanismer].

Se bare til NJ i mai hvor nesten 1 av 5 stemmer ble forkastet som "fraud" og 3 demokrater er siktet for valgfusk. Juks er nå en ting, men i tillegg kommer alle legale stemmer som forkastes av ulike grunner.

...også har man jo tusenvis av anti-trumpere som skryter på seg å sende titusenvis av falske rsvp's, kanskje en liten forsmak på hva som kommer?

En absentee stemmeseddel kan man få tilsendt om man av ulike grunner ikke kan dra å stemme der man er hjemmehørende (syk, jobber elsewhere, osv). Med "allment postvalg" mener jeg at man uoppfordret sender ut en stemmeseddel til alle registrerte stemmere.
 

 

[jallajall]

Det er forskjell på folk. Mens det er helt uproblematisk å demonstrere i gatene og rope defund police, vanker det $1000 i bot når man demonstrerer fordi man vil begynne å jobbe igjen. Sistnevnte kalles vistnok "a person who is engaged in indecent or obscene conduct in a public place".

Så allment postvalg er absentee stemmeseddel berre i større grad.. Ok, då har du strengt tatt ikkje argumentert på kvifor det er greit for Trump og hans Republikanske venner å stemme "absentee" fordi dei er redd for corona, mens folk flest skal møte opp....

Den biten er "Jobber elsewhere".

Enkelte steder, om man er dritheldig, får man til og med stemmeseddelen ferdig krysset av for demokratene slik at man ikke behøver å krysse av selv en gang.
