There are (at least) 55,000 DEAD AMERICANS and our "president" tweets about the media being mean

[SoonerPride]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!

















(I had a long diatribe and then just deleted it.
I believe the above comment sums it up anyway.
Brevity is the soul of wit, after all)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. If you ask me, they haven't been mean enough.

[SoonerPride]

4. Right?

IMHO they treat him with way too much deference and respect.

I would go "what the fuck are you talking about?"

Fuck that lunatic

[guillaumeb]

2. Agreed. eom

[Wellstone ruled]

3. So,by this time next week.

We could well exceed the Nam totals

[SoonerPride]

6. Yes. In about two months time.

And there are STILL those who say "It's just the flu"

FUCK THAT!

THIS IS ONE TERRIBLE VIRUS KILLING THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS on top of having the coronavirus out there doing the same.

[leftieNanner]

9. True, sadly

I remember the first time I saw the Vietnam War memorial in DC. It's a devastating and powerful monument to death and the futility of war. So many dead young (mostly) men. Standing at the bottom, where the wall is tallest (the Tet offensive, I believe) I found myself weeping. That was my era and some of those names were people I knew in high school.

If you have never experienced the monument, it's worth the trip. Instead of a monument that glorifies war - this one shows the awful waste in lost lives.

21. It took me by surprise...very moving.

[malaise]

11. That will happen by Wednesday n/t

[Wellstone ruled]

16. Thought the same.

[SergeStorms]

28. Yet the MAGAts....

still sing his praises as a "strong leader", or a "straight shooter". How brainwashed those fools are.

[malaise]

30. Just saw that he spent four minutes (of 13 hours on the shitshows)

offering sympathy to the families of the dead.
He is a despicable creep.

[SergeStorms]

34. I wouldn't have thought it was that much, malaise.

It's always about him. Always.

[uponit7771]

35. this is sad

[Newest Reality]

5. Ultracrepidarian Cockwomble!

[niyad]

13. Love it!

[tanyev]

7. Obviously he's the real victim here.

[Jim__]

8. He's tweeting about what's important to him.

Dead Americans? Most of them were poor people anyway.

[SoonerPride]

10. I know. Nothing exists beyond his glorious reflection in the mirror.

He's just mad these dead people are keeping him from golfing. How dare they!

[progree]

12. Grim milestone approaching: U.S. troops killed in Vietnam War: 58,000

[Solly Mack]

14. It's not about the dead or the living for Trump.

It's about him.

The world's orangest victim of his own making in his own mind.

He seriously can't understand why people can't see how great he is and everyone who refuses to praise him is being mean and unfair.

He truly believes he has done America a favor by being in office.

His equally delusional family thinks the same way.

[treestar]

15. And in VN it took place over at least

10 years!

[bdamomma]

17. well NK

lost their sick leader, hmm....maybe it's contagious for ours.

[Botany]

18. Donny Bodybags ... they died of the Orange Trump Virus

[SergeStorms]

26. Those are sobering pictures.

To think that weeks ago, maybe even sooner than that, these were vibrant, active people who, for lack of proper equipment or warnings, had no idea what the near future held for them. If Trump had only taken the warnings seriously.

Appreciate what you have, when you have it, because one never knows when it will all come to a screeching halt.

[Dirty Socialist]

19. I remember Rumsfeld doing the same thing

During the invasion of Iraq, right when they fired his ass

[johnnyfins]

20. As MAGAt Nation says

F his feelings!

[slumcamper]

22. Smiling...

23. Loser Donnie Bodybags only cares about himself, not 55,000 dead Americans.

[Ford_Prefect]

24. I this was any other country we'd be calling it GENOCIDE. The clown is distracting the MSM from

the reality that the GOP are using this as a means of destroying democracy and murdering American citizens.

[orleans]

25. i just googled and found this newsweek article

this is the first time i heard anything about this....
i don't get cnn or msnbc -- just the local chgo news stations HOWEVER, the local media hasn't been mean enuf to say shit about this. and why the fuck not??

ANTI-TRUMP PROTESTERS DUMP 'BODY BAGS' OUTSIDE PRESIDENT'S WASHINGTON, D.C. HOTEL

[RVN VET71]

27. Sadly around 40,000,000 of our fellow Americans agree with Trump

And a good number of them do not believe that 55,000 of us have died. A smaller number have protested orders to lockdown -- and many of them have gotten literally in the faces of counter-protesting nurses.

[jaxexpat]

29. I get that. Most of my best diatribes are in the deleted file.

[IronLionZion]

31. People are deliberately dying to make him look bad

it's a global conspiracy. The Italians and Spanish are absolutely diabolical partners in our vast liberal conspiracy.

Not only is New York ungratefully screwing over their hometown favorite son, but red states like Louisiana and Georgia having rural people dying to make him look bad.

[Mr. Ected]

32. Remember back in the day when the President was answerable to the people?

Remember back in the days of lore when a President presided over all the people and not just his supporters?

Remember when the media asked questions and the President was expected to answer them?

This smugly bloated entrail has set back American democracy a hundred years, and that's being generous.

[robbedvoter]

33. he is in full tantrum
