    Ok, chache. Has nothing to do with being a contrarian. Some of the stuff I read on here provides an interesting perspective as to how others think (opposite of Rivals), and it changes my perspective in some regard. But because I don’t subscribe to the majority’s overall ideology, the only responses I get are “kill yourself” or “you’re an idiot” with no substance behind it.

    In this particular case, I find the hypocrisy of bitching that Trump is responsible for the PPE shortage and then subsequently bitching about Trump when he actually does something to address that shortage mind boggling.

    Kushner reminds me of a college kid who is full of shit but thinks he's slick turning in some clearly plagiarized work

    But he's like 40 and still doing it

    If you still support Trump you are in fact an idiot and should for sure kill yourself before your decisions kill even more people.

    I feel like every day there’s a revolving door of top 5 people in this administration I would love to punch in the face that is constantly shifting due to recency bias on whoever I see in front of a mic

    The John Oliver segment that included a video Kushner showed at some real estate thing was perfect, just pointless tech phrases and big words thrown together very similar to the press conference yesterday.

    Not sure where you are seeing that he didn’t use it but found this:

    Trump on Thursday issued an order under the Defense Production Act directing acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf to "use any and all authority available under the Act to acquire, from any appropriate subsidiary or affiliate of 3M Company, the number of N-95 respirators that the Administrator determines to be appropriate."

    Followed up by:

    “The administration also requested that 3M cease exporting respirators that we currently manufacture in the United States to the Canadian and Latin American markets,” a statement from the company read.

    So once again, a half measure when he could actually use the powers that he has if he wanted to.

    Yeah that ‘genius’ plan by the Orange retard kinda backfired since all of 3Ms pulp it uses to produce masks and whatnot actually comes from Canada.

    I think the issue people have is that he will have a press conference and talk about it’s the market that dictates where the needed supplies are going and then tweets shit like that. It appears that he is lying or talking about both sides of his mouth. Can you really not see that? There doesn’t seem to be a plan. Having 80% of the stuff go to private organizations and driving up prices seems like the opposite of what should be done.

    I can agree with this, especially after yesterday’s PC with Kushner and that buffoon of an admiral.

    He does a good job with some of these and then sounds like an idiot at others. What needs to stop is the media with all the dumb fucking gotcha questions

    Get the fuck out of here with this bullshit.

    The media’s job is to ask questions and hold the men in power accountable. He’s the fucking president of the United States —it’s his job to handle and deal with tough situations and tough questions. He’s not a 24-year-old, third-grade teacher. If anything, the media has to ask MORE tough questions and vet his answers to questions more. But yeah, the fact that you think this president (or any president) should be coddled is why you come off as an idiot.

    I guess I agree with your premise overall, but some of the questions are fucking stupid and serve no purpose. I also wish that Trump wouldn’t answer some of those retarded questions with the “fake news” bullshit which causes more of a shitshow

    And at least you gave a response before calling me an idiot. Take notes hipsterjoe Tobias bertwing

    I am trying to have a honest discussion with you so I’ll ask, what “gotcha” questions? I haven’t seen one. I have seen him get spoon feed questions by not only Oan but also the main stream outlets and blow them. If you were 100% you’d see this is 100% his fault and the dummies who voted for him.

    pour yourself a nice stiff drink. find the nearest set of train tracks. enjoy your drink while you wait for a train to come down those tracks. when it does, set your drink down and proceed to jump in front of said train

    He says something different every day, then tweets something different every night. How the fuck do we know what he's even saying without asking him about what he's saying and what he's said. Morons like you who just believe him even when he contradicts himself think that's the media's fault. That's because you're stupid.
