Manitoba’s conservative leader is about as far from Trump as it is possible to be, without entirely leaving the human race. Check out the 1 1/2 minute video at this link:
How does Canada end up with people like Brian Pallister while we end up with Donald Trump and Lindsey Graham?
BTW, at a time when hospital workers in many parts of the country are overwhelmed with work, Trump retweets a nutty conspiracy theory that the hospitals are not actually flooded with Covid patients. How sick does a person have to be to do something like that?
America’s GOP seems to favor “freedom” and “liberty” as long as you use that freedom to do things that the GOP approves of. Otherwise you can rot in jail for all they care:
The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act (MORE Act), made it through the House by a 228 to 164 vote. Nearly every Democrat supported the measure, while just five Republicans voted for it. Six Democrats voted against the bill.
The bill, introduced by Rep. Jerry Nadler (D., N.Y.), would eliminate conflict between state and federal law and allow states to set their own marijuana policies.
States rights? Why that’s positively un-American!
Trumpistas like to imagine that Trump represents “the people” against “the elites”. Actually, among 21st century candidates only McCain was less able to get “the people” to vote for him, and McCain would have easily surpassed Trump’s vote share if he’d been running against Hillary rather than Obama:
Not to mention that McCain had to run in 2008, when Iraq and the Great Recession made the GOP highly unpopular.
Biden’s 51.3% is the most by a challenger since 1932, when FDR won by a landslide over Hoover. And Biden did something even FDR failed to do in 1932, he won Pennsylvania.
On the lighter side, watch this 2 minute video of Trump’s crack legal team in action. These days, it’s hard to tell reality from SNL.
