So disgusting to watch Twitter’s so-called “Trending”, where sooo many trends are about me, and never a good one. They look for anything they can find, make it as bad as possible, and blow it up, trying to make it trend. Really ridiculous, illegal, and, of course, very unfair!
The Fake News Media is trying to portray the Portland and Seattle “protesters” as wonderful, sweet and innocent people just out for a little stroll. Actually, they are sick and deranged Anarchists & Agitators who our great men & women of Law Enforcement easily control, but who...
....would destroy our American cities, and worse, if Sleepy Joe Biden, the puppet of the Left, ever won. Markets would crash and cities would burn. Our Country would suffer like never before. We will beat the Virus, soon, and go on to the Golden Age - better than ever before!

Lincoln was largely the first "online" President as he made heavy use of telegram and telegraph machines during his administration.
So now I have an image of Lincoln sitting in bed holding a telegraph "tapper" terminal typing out angry telegrams at 3 in the morning.

He's probably also upset that they deleted a Breitbart video he retweeted, featuring people claiming to be doctors and spreading false information about COVID-19, including the efficacy of his favorite hydroxychloroquine.
When I went looking for that story, there's also a new story that Twitter has temporarily limited Junior's account, possibly because of the same video.

I think he means "Guilded age". Actually appropriate to what he is doing.

I assume "Gilded"? And I'm not so sure - he is probably more familiar with Hollywood's "Golden Age" - you know, when "Gone with the Wind" was made.

Kushner to Republican House candidates: No soup for you!
From: Yahoo News
The House GOP is on the outside looking in, and it doesn't look like the Trump re-election campaign or the Republican National Committee are planning to help...Some Trump officials reportedly consider donating to the House a wasteful investment since it seems unlikely the party will be able to regain the majority....House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has apparently specifically asked President Trump's son-in-law and adviser, Jared Kushner — who oversees such decisions — to make a financial commitment to the House GOP, but he's reportedly refused so far, angering some Republicans who blame him for not understanding the importance of inter-party cohesion.
Remember a year or so ago when the Trump campaign was more or less given control over the general republican re-election finances?
A few things of interest here:
- It looks like Trump has given up on winning the house. I wonder how all those house republicans who voted against impeachment feel about it now
- Hopefully this will lead to more fracturing of the GOP, and a loss of even more house seats.
- I guess now that the GOP won't be spending the money on house re-election campaigns, they will have extra money to spend on Trump Jr's book.

Nothing suspicious here folks...
From: Bloomberg
Two of President Donald Trump’s re-election committees violated campaign-finance laws by obscuring the true purpose and recipients of almost $170 million in payments, including salaries paid to Lara Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle, according to a complaint filed Tuesday with the Federal Election Commission by a watchdog group.
Too bad that, thanks to Moscow Mitch and Stubby McBonespurs, the FEC doesn't have enough members to properly enforce possible abuses like this.
ETA:
Opps, it appears i was wrong... the FEC added one more member, allowing them to (technically) operate. But the person that was added was a Trump toadie, who is in favor of removing regulations. (From: CNN)

Ah yes, Gun nut Nugent. The guy who called Obama a "Subhuman mongrel". That's a good sign that Trump is serious about racism.
And remember when he made comments about Obama and Clinton "sucking on his machine gun"? Remember when Trump and the republicans got upset when Kathy Griffin posted a picture of her holding a fake Trump head? I guess threats against political figures are A-Ok if you support a republican.
He really needs the work.
He claims his support for Trump has ruined his career, and he had to sell everything, move to Florida, and had to get a job working construction.
From: NBC News
The duo who is so insane that even Fox News doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with them. (They made regular appearances until they started making claims that Covid-19 deaths were a hoax to embarrass Trump).
So, way to show that you're taking the pandemic seriously!

He also compared trying to find work in Hollywood to being Jewish during the Holocaust.
I'm sure he was incredibly in demand before he started supporting Trump. Wikipedia shows reality shows, a few TV movies, and an occasional single episode guest appearances on various TV series.

Thank you. "Gilded" age. Without the philanthropy, of course. Only the poverty.

No “job-killing regulations” back then.

Although I guess there were a lot of “employee-killing regulations.”

They are relying on PAC money for the house, I think. I know PACs have thrown money at Lee Zeldin.
The fact that Lee Zeldin is actually in a race (initial polls have his challenger 2 points behind) is a bad sign for the GOP, and indicates that Trump's coattails don't mean much.
