So what's the big baby been up to lately?

https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ny-trump-coronavirus-swab-factory-visit-maine-20200606-ll7a5oucvjadzp357y2zdqpwjm-story.html

Ah, forcing a factory to throw away boxes of coronavirus swabs by refusing to wear a mask during the visit.

And getting into a feud with an NFL player over the kneeling issue.

Just being a big stupid baby as usual it seems.

Ugh..... this guy... I have been searching for the words, but they do not come....

Just can't understand... see my post here for details: https://forum.tfes.org/index.php?topic=16325.msg213989#msg213989

And now being mad that Colin Powell is going to vote for someone other than him.

Is he really mad at that? That's the fourth time in a row Powell will not vote for the republican candidate. Makes me wonder why he choses to remain a member of that party. Maybe it's more about the two-party system of the  USA than about Powell and Trump, reminds me how earlier this year, AOC said that 'In any other country, Joe Biden and [her] would not be in the same party'.

He's mad at anyone who won't vote for him. 

[Tumeni]

He's mad at anyone who won't vote for him.

He's mad at anyone who won't agree with/praise/support him, anyone who won't do his bidding, anyone who won't lick his boots...

Whitehouse releases "photos of the week", and one shows Trump addressing a roomful of police officers, a meeting which was NOT on his published public schedule .....

The fist looks really bad.  Like wtf is he saying where he gestures with a fist?

Also not the vests and riot shields.  Trump is prepping for battle.  And by prepping I mean telling his men to crush the enemy (protesters) while he inspects the bunker.

Trump tweeted his standard array of Ad Hominems very soon after Powell made the announcement, so yes, Trump is mad.

Trump's support on this issue is eroding to dust. He just can't recognize when he's losing the argument. This is yet another example where, sure, he'll energize his base of zombies, but he risks alienating everyone else. Can he really afford to do that during an election year?

With Goodell's statement permitting the protests Trump should just drop it. It would be a PR nightmare for Goodell to change his stance now; as a businessman, surely Trump at least recognizes that much. It's hard to imagine that Trump's not only hurting himself with this at this point.

He doesn't, actually care about anyone else but his followers.   And he honestly believes he can win with just them. Or maybe he doesn't care.  Maybe he just wants crowds of people cheering him and that's all he needs to be happy.

[Roundy]

Wouldn't he like 4 more years of that though? I don't know, maybe he really doesn't care about reelection. Or maybe he's counting on his loss sparking a civil war. It's hard to know what's going on in the baby's brain.

Ah, the good ole us v them dynamic...aren't you tiring of this?

Is Trump tiring of the "must dominate the people" dynamic?

Of course. But Trump doesn't seem to be. He forces the dynamic with his unrelenting divisiveness.

Trump, I believe, was stating that rioters and looters must be dominated.

So, yes.

If someone was tearing up, setting fire, or otherwise destroying your things, I would actually come and dominate that someone for free.

He is certainly drawing a line in the sand.

I fail to see the problem with people who draw lines in the sand.

I do not think Trump is losing this particular argument.

Then apparently you aren't tiring of the us vs them dynamic. Why even bring it up if that's the case?

Do people who who riot and injure others also divide?

How about people who torch and pillage?

Do they divide?

I suppose you could say they're drawing a line in the sand...

I haven't seen Roundy supporting hte actions of looters though, so this seems like a strawman in development.

He wasn't even subtle about completely changing the subject but I'm always willing to see where he's going with things.
