Wow, you're kicking it old school with the ethnic stereotypes, right? "Governor Meatball?"
I actually wasn't thinking of it that way, except for the fact that Cuomo in his rambling press conference monologues that tickle the emotional titties of NY women likes telling stories about Italian family dinners. That said, even if I was engaging in ethnic stereotyping, not only is it harmless, but it's exactly what Obama did when he said on 60 Minutes that no one in Chicago questioned his blackness when he went to barber shops or played basketball in Chicago. I highly doubt that you ever had a problem with Obama saying such things.
And, btw, I am partially of Italian extraction, so aren't I allowed to make an Italian joke? After all, I have never heard you or any white Democrat condemn rappers for playfully using the n-word all the time. Why can't Italians make a joke about each other once in a while?
Well, I know the answer. But I'll let you say it anyway.
I treat the Democratic leadership in NY with kid gloves?
Yes, you do. Even though you are now conceding that De Blasio and Cuomo "made mistakes," you are still clearly putting most of the blame for the New York debacle on Trump - even though he has sent a plethora of supplies (masks, gloves, gowns) and personnel and even a hospital ship, while also authorizing the construction of a hospital at the Javits Center. Apparently that is not enough for you, because you now want him, as president, to personally cure every patient in New York and stand outside the nursing homes with military personnel to stop Cuomo from idiotically moving COVID patients into nursing homes.
I believe I said on the
last page that they've made mistakes, both di Blasio and Cuomo. (And Pelosi, to be clear.)
What is it with you and Broken lately that you can't spell names? It's "De Blasio," not "di Blasio." You also recently spelled "Pence" as "Pense." And Broken spelled Obama's first name with 2 r's as Barrack. Are you guys okay? I thought Trump was the one who misspelled words on Twitter, not you guys.
What I also said is that they didn't make it about themselves, which Trump has done.
Yeah, Governor Meatball rambling on and on about Italian family dinners and how the boyfriends of his daughters are evaluated really shows how he is keeping his eye on the goal of battling coronavirus and not at all making it about himself. His recent comment that he's "available" for women in New York who have fallen in love with his bullshit monologues also wasn't about himself at all. He is just a humanitarian, whose mistakes are made out of the goodness of his heart as he tries to save dying COVID patients.
In all seriousness, how do you talk yourself into believing this much bullshit?
Let me say again, because it bears repeating: Trump has weaponized narcissism.
That really isn't as profound a phrase as you are trying to make it out be.
Let me say again, because it bears reapeating:
THAT REALLY ISN'T AS PROFOUND A PHRASE AS YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE IT OUT TO BE.
As I've mentioned before, and you keep ignoring, the leader of this country is President Trump. You can go after mayors and governors for their lack of leadership, and choices made. But let's be real. This IS a national crisis, and where is the leadership from the top?
Oh please, the White House has put out numerous guidelines for the country to follow, such as "15 Days to Stop the Spread." There have been conference calls with governors on the phases of re-opening. There have been dozens of outreach efforts to assist all the governors. You are talking utter nonsense.
Where is the address from the Oval Office?
Again, you have to be kidding. If Trump gave a speech, there is no chance that you would give him any credit for it. Even after all your years of saying that the Iraq war was a mistake, you have never once given Trump credit for staying out of Middle East wars and taking a noninterventionist stance. Like the Lebanese Elmer, you are an anti-Trump bigot and there is no way that you would give Trump any credit for a speech.
I would also remind you that Trump gave a speech after the travel ban on European countries was announced and he was mostly ridiculed and mocked for it. There is no chance that you would give him any credit if he were to give one right now.
What you should be more focused on is that Trump has acted with great dispatch in assisting the various states. Talk is cheap, action is what counts in these situations. And he has been very diligent.
Why do grocery stores and small businesses and restaurants keep having to figure it out for themselves?
Because Pelosi held up stimulus legislation and because Democratic governors are not allowing these places to function normally. That's why.
Trump...and you...are mad because this is potentially screwing up the election. Never mind the other ramifications.
You have it backwards honey.....many of the Democrats want the economy to tank to hurt Trump's re-election chances. There is no way the Democratic governors would still be imposing these lockdowns if a Democrat was president and they wanted him re-elected.
I just don't understand the preeminence of cultural rather than economic self interest that enables them (the right) to sustain their positions
