Not about you MDJ but it irks me when the US President is called the leader of the free world.
Who made them the leader?

"Free" normally means democratically elected countries. Those same countries for the most part had a heavy reliance on the US for protection (NATO, ANZUS, Korean border, Bases in Japan etc), then the leap to Leader of the Free World isn't that far really.

These days, not so sure....
 
I know they've just tried and failed, but surely recommending that people inject disinfectant is grounds for impeachment on the basis of insanity or excessive stupidity.
Imagine how the right would respond if a "left" president said that?

Voting Trump in, and supporting him once he was voted in, was 'excessive stupidity'. Not sure him doing now what he has always done is impeach worthy.

A leader usually leads. It’s a long time since the US as a nation has been a leader
Besides the “free world” is a lot of sovereign states who don’t really need to be lead nor do they want to
 
So we're going to have an app with lots of people's data stored so people can work out if they have had contact with someone who is infected.

Who would you trust the data to? Somewhere secure, a struggling Australian tech company maybe?

How about a tech company known for collecting lots of data on everyone? How about a company which will likely store the data overseas? How about we contract it out to Amazon. FFS.

And Scott from Marketing says they will legislate so the data is protected. Really? You do realise that they will store the data overseas . . . where Australian laws don't apply?

Well that should turn a lot of people off.

I saw a clip of the chief scientist’s face when Trump suggested she study the detergent thing. Barely disguised horror at the man’s sheer stupidity

Those who laughed and mocked Dettol Trump for suggesting that injecting disinfectant may kill the COVID-19 virus all owe him an apology, he says that he was only being sarcastic.:rotfl1:rotfl2

Just watched his latest press conference. ...... he is possibly the weakest **** of all time when it comes to leadership.
After his completely looney toon VP had finished his piece of evangelistic propaganda. ..... they all slinked out the door refusing to take questions.
Surely them dopey bastards over there won't vote him back in. ... will they?:rolleyes:

Who knows what they'll do over there, you'd think they'd be too embarrassed to have him as their President again.
He's a dead set laughing stock, as they would be if they voted him in again.
One thing I do know, the lead up to the election will be more toxic that this hideous COVID-19 virus.
 
So apparently COVID-19 can attach to pollution particles in the air, allowing the virus to stay in the atmosphere longer and cause a greater threat of infection. Explains why heavily polluted areas, China, Northern Italy, suffered the biggest outbreaks. Scientists are looking to verify this.

Dr Trump now gas-lighting today saying he was being sarcastic to reporters yesterday to see what would happen. :rotfl2
I reckon he's jumped the shark with this one. Comes off as a desperate crazy liar. Any credibility he had is now mud.
America is a laughing stock whilst he's their president.

Amazing. He said he was directing the questions to reporters but he clearly looked at his senior health official Dr Birx and asked her the questions.
enough already. Somebody get rid of him. It stopped being funny a long time ago. People are looking for leadership and are dying in their thousands and all they are getting is an overgrown narcissistic toddler who seems to only care about the ‘high ratings’ of his press conferences and his ability to churn out brilliant ideas because ,you know, he’s so intelligent. Then to have tantys when he gets bad press because of his stupidity

His response to a reporter who respectfully suggested that people watched the conferences for actual information and not rumours was classic Trump. ‘I’m the President and you’re fake news’. Unbelievable, you couldn’t make this *smile* up.
