It’s Wednesday aka There are Only Two-Weeks Until October 1st. 😮

For There are Only Two-Weeks Until October 1st President No Clothes has tweeted 9 times and retweeted 9 times so far.

His first tweet for Wednesday was sent at 12:15 a.m. D.C., where he shared a tweet by Richard Grenell, who shared a tweet by Ofir Gendelam, the Israeli Prime Minsters spokesperson to the Arab Media.

For his second and fourth tweet he shared a manipulated video of political rival Joe Biden.

The video posted by The United Spot is a 27 second video of Biden playing the song Fuck the Police at a campaign event in Florida. Twitter has labeled the tweeted video as “Manipulated media,” since the actual song Biden played from his phone was Despacito by Luis Fonsi, who introduced Biden at his campaign event in Florida.

This is what the label looks like.

When you click the manipulated media link it takes you to the original clip which is Biden playing the song by the man that introduced him.

President Every Grudge that is Old is New Again, renewed his feud with the NFL over players kneeling during the U.S. National Anthem.

I have nothing left but opinion on this matter.
You the viewer have several choices while watching football.
You can:
A) not watch the before kickoff events, missing the kneelers if you are offended by them.
B) not watch the NFL at all.
C) rage tweet while watching the NFL players kneel, that’s fine.
D) make nachos, get beer, check your fantasy team while the kneelers kneel missing the whole thing altogether while it’s on in the background.
E) write a strongly worded emails to the NFL and Networks about how kneeling during the anthem is offense to you and why.
F) boycott the sponsors of the NFL, while not watching the NFL.
G) a combo of A-F.

On the other side of my opinion, I as someone who respects our Constitution kneels with the players against the government telling them they have to stand. It’s not the government’s business, not even a tiny bit. It’s between the NFL team owners and their players. It’s not between the Government, the NFL, and the players.

Forced Patriotism =’s Fascism.

In his next tweet he congratulates the Big Ten for voting to start their new college football season on October 24th, 2020.

By helps he means attempting to pretend the coronavirus pandemic is over and that we aren’t now around 200,000 dead Americans, and thousands more with long term health problems, including heart disease.

From their statement regarding covid-19 safety measures:

The Big Ten will require student-athletes, coaches, trainers and other individuals that are on the field for all practices and games to undergo daily antigen testing. Test results must be completed and recorded prior to each practice or game. Student-athletes who test positive for the coronavirus through point of contact (POC) daily testing would require a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test to confirm the result of the POC test.

Each institution will designate a Chief Infection Officer (CInO) who will oversee the collection and reporting of data for the Big Ten Conference. Team test positivity rate and population positivity rate thresholds will be used to determine recommendations for continuing practice and competition.
 
All COVID-19 positive student-athletes will have to undergo comprehensive cardiac testing to include labs and biomarkers, ECG, Echocardiogram and a Cardiac MRI. Following cardiac evaluation, student-athletes must receive clearance from a cardiologist designated by the university for the primary purpose of cardiac clearance for COVID-19 positive student-athletes. The earliest a student-athlete can return to game competition is 21 days following a COVID-19 positive diagnosis.
 
In addition to the medical protocols approved, the 14 Big Ten institutions will establish a cardiac registry in an effort to examine the effects on COVID-19 positive student-athletes. The registry and associated data will attempt to answer many of the unknowns regarding the cardiac manifestations in COVID-19 positive elite athletes.

Eventually all Big Ten sports will require testing protocols before they can resume competition. Updates regarding fall sports other than football, as well as winter sports that begin in the fall including men’s and women’s basketball, men’s ice hockey, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, and wrestling, will be announced shortly.

How they will determine if a college team is able to continue practices and competition:

President aka the Emperor Has No Clothes moves on from football to thank everyone for his great reviews following his ABC News town hall that was held on Tuesday evening.

*Note, I will be using tweets for their video content, not necessarily their own words as to the video content, unless it’s CNN Fact-Checker Daniel Dale, I’m using him for his words.*

Highlights.

In this clip he repeats the same lie, that we have more cases, because we do more testing.

Narrator: That’s not true.

In the same clip he says he didn’t say one way or the other if China’s President was doing a good job.

*Ahem*

January 24th, 2020 (Our first case was reported on January 21st, 2020.)

February 7th, 2020.

February 7th, he told journalist Bob Woodward that he thinks “he’s [President Xi] going to have it in good shape.” He added that the virus was tricky because it “goes through the air, Bob,” adding that the virus was more deadly that, “your–you know, your even strenuous flus.” He also tells Woodward that the virus is more deadly.

March 26th, 2020.

On March 19th, 2020, speaking again with Woodward he explained that “it’s not just old, older, [people] it’s young people too, plenty of young people.” In the same tape he is asked how come he pivoted to taking the virus seriously, he says, “well I think, Bob, really, to be honest with you, I wanted to–I wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create a panic.”

In this clip from ABC News’ town hall he said he didn’t “down play it [the coronavirus] I up-played it, in terms of action.”

In the same clip, he repeats the same line about his ban on China.

Narrator:

In the next clip he is pressed about his healthcare plan that he said a year ago would be out in “two-weeks,” saying that, “I have it already–I have it already.” Stephanopoulos pushes again, saying that the Trump admin is trying to strike down pre-existing conditions, to which he says, “it doesn’t matter, I have it already and it’s a much better plan for you and it’s a much better plan.” Asked what is it, to which he doesn’t answer.

He also attempts to suggest that it’s the Democrats that will remove pre-existing conditions.

*End this section of Highlights*

He moves on to promote vaccines for the coronavirus.

He was asked about his statement that the virus would “disappear,” to which he says it will one-day disappear. Pressed he said that while Nazis were bombing London Churchill was on rooftops telling people “everything’s going to be good.”

In the same clip he also says that it would go away without a vaccine, because of “herd mentality,” he also added we were rounding the coroner on the virus.

In April he was against “herd mentality,” which =’s herd immunity, I’m still trying to track the full clip.

The White House transcript from April 10th’s press mini-rally.

President Flip Flopper: And if we did follow that approach, I think we might have 2 million people dead.  And Sweden is having a lot of difficulty.  You know, look, I’m very friendly with the leadership in Sweden.  They took a different approach.  They’re a very disciplined country to start off with, but they did take a different — and, you know, other places tried it.

The UK tried it — the herd approach, okay?  Herd.  And they tried it, and you saw what happened in UK.  It set them back a lot — a lot of time.  It’s been — you know, they’re having a tough time.  Other countries have tried it.  And Sweden is suffering greatly.  I mean, Sweden is suffering greatly.

Our resident Press Lying Liar that Lies told Fox News this morning in defense of his saying “herd mentality,” he was using a medical term, skipping right over the fact that he said “mentality,” instead of “immunity.”

He also in last night’s town hall said that some don’t want to wear masks, asked who doesn’t want to wear he says “waiters.”

In the same clip he attempts to blame Democrats and Biden for not implementing a national mask mandate.

He moves on to blame the Democrats for not supporting a new stimulus package regarding the coronavirus.

The House passed a new stimulus package in May. Republicans failed in the Senate to pass a skinny bill a few weeks ago. Republicans don’t want a “higher number.”

Republican Majority Whip John Thune (SD), is quoted by the Washington Post as saying in response to the tweet, “I assume that means he wants to make a deal,” he added, “I’m not sure what higher numbers, what that means. That probably needs to get translated for us. But I know kind of what the threshold is for what we can get Republican votes for in the Senate, and I think if the number gets too high anything that got passed in the Senate would be passed mostly with Democrat votes and a handful of Republicans, so it’s going to have to stay in sort of a realistic range.”

In his next tweet he says that a TV personality economic show host on CNBC should not have said it was a mistake to call Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), to her face “Crazy Nancy,” her presidential nickname.

In the original clip he says, “what deal can we have “crazy Nancy,”” he adds quickly, “I’m sorry, that was the President.”

I’m glad to see, that the busiest man in Washington, is focusing on the pressing issues of our day.


Because lying on Fox News wasn’t enough, our lying liar is scheduled to hold a press briefing this afternoon.
