It was an interview with Jonathan Swan about COVID-19 where Trump had a bunch of papers with graphs trying to show that the US was doing well with cases. The paper he handed over showed the rates of deaths per case (though Trump didn’t seem to understand the graph), and Swan was asking him about the high rate of deaths in the US when looking at the total population of the country.
Man, if the media was worth a damn it could absolutely bury Trump in negative campaign ads. It’s one thing to run a single valid negative campaign ad. With Trump you could collect them like fucking pokemon.
That’s the problem though. His core supporters define themselves by who they oppose, so anything negative said about him is seen as an attack and becomes fuel for the hate machine
Yeah, I found it on my laptop and was too lazy to send it over to my phone where I was on lemmy. So I typed it up, and then I actually sent the link to my phone when it was pointed out that it was broken.
Well, maybe lazy isn’t the right word. But I was too something.
I can’t even remember what dumb shit Trump was showing this guy.

You’d need over 30x the amount of total pokemon to match the amount of lies he’s told as president
That’s a lotta pokémon
“They are dying; it is what it is.”
Easily hits one of the 10 things you do not want to hear the president of your country say.
Man it is HARD to believe this jabbering orangesicle was ever the president of the fucking United States
And is a threat to be president yet again. God I hope not.
