Trump argued that Biden is cognitively impaired, but then claimed that Biden is about to lead America into World War II.

Trump said while addressing evangelicals, “We are a nation that has weaponized law enforcement against opposing political parties. Like never before. There has never been anything like this. We’ve got a federal Bureau of Investigation that won’t allow bad election-changing facts to be presented to the public. And who offers $1 million to a writer of fiction about Donald Trump to lie and say it was fact Hunter Biden’s laptop from Hell was Russian disinformation and the FBI. No, it wasn’t. But 51 intelligence agencies said it was And they knew it wasn’t also in a Department of Justice that refuses to investigate egregious acts of voting irregularities and fraud. And we have a man who is totally corrupt and the worst president in the history of our country. Who is cognitively impaired. In no condition to lead. And is now in charge of dealing with Russia. And possible nuclear war. Just think of it. We would be in World War II. Very quickly.”

Maybe having a 78-year-old candidate who refuses to release his medical records make the case that the incumbent president is too old is not the best idea?

Trump continues to talk to his followers in a language that mostly only they understand.

Trump’s ranting about 2020 and Hunter Biden’s laptop is not going to go over well with a general electorate, but the former president has no campaign message. He is relitigating the 2020 election and complaining about the criminal charges that have been filed against him.

A candidate who doesn’t know that Joe Biden wasn’t president before World War II or that World War II was more than 80 years ago probably should not be running for president.

Republicans and the media are making an issue about Biden’s age, but Donald Trump continues to show real signs that he is too old and unfit to run for president.

Breitbart and InfoWars Hit New Low By Comparing Parkland Survivor To Hitler

Proving yet again how nervous the far right is getting about the momentum survivors of the Parkland school shooting have injected into the gun control issue, several alt-right websites and commentators have compared student David Hogg to Hitler.

On Saturday, Hogg delivered a speech to a massive crowd of an estimated 200,000 people at the March for Our Lives rally in Washington D.C., and at one point, he raise a closed fist into the air.

Alex Jones, founder of the conspiracy theory website InfoWars, took video of Hogg’s speech and dubbed it with audio of a speech by Hitler.

Breitbart and The Daily Wire, also far-right websites, have published articles accusing Hogg of ending his speech with the Hitler salute. Numerous tweets accusing the teen of the same thing have been shared thousands of times.

Even more pathetic is the fact that Republican legislators, such as Minnesota Rep. Mary Franson, have used this as a way to attack Hogg on social media. Iowa Rep. Steve King similarly shared an insulting meme about Emma Gonzalez, another Parkland survivor, to mock her after her own speech at Saturday’s march.

By lowering themselves to the point where they’re attacking minors who went through a massive tragedy just weeks ago, Republicans and pro-gun advocates are doing the job of discrediting themselves out of their opponents’ hands.

Senators Chuck Grassley & Orrin Hatch #fundie politicususa.com

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) suggested that rich people deserve tax cuts more than working class people because working class people spend all of their money on booze, women, or movies.

Grassley told the Des Moines Register, “I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing, as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies.”

In the Republican view of America, there are two classes of people, the deserving rich, and the undeserving everyone else.

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) also expressed this view when he said during the tax cut debate that Republicans no longer have the money to pay for children’s health insurance, “[L]et me tell you something: we’re going to do CHIP. There’s no question about it in my mind. It’s got to be done the right way. But we, the reason CHIP’s having trouble is because we don’t have money anymore.”

The problem with the thinking of Grassley and Hatch is that rich people don’t reinvest their tax cuts back into the economy. If a tax cut is given to someone making $25,000-$75,000 a year, they put the money back into the economy. They don’t spend the money on women and booze and Grassley said. They pay bills or make purchases that they have put off for a long time because they couldn’t afford it. They don’t blow the money. Working class people put their tax cuts back into the economy, and benefit businesses.

Grassley was suggesting that working class people lack the morals to deserve a tax cut, and Hatch directly stated that Republicans drained the treasury and let children suffer.

The mentality expressed by Sen. Grassley shows why Republican trickle-down economics always fails. Republicans don’t care that cutting taxes for the rich doesn’t work because they believe that the wealthy are morally superior to everyone else.

Jeremy Joseph Christian (A murderer) #fundie politicususa.com

(Reuters) – A man fatally stabbed two people aboard a Portland, Oregon, commuter train when they tried to stop him from harassing two women who appeared to be Muslim, police said.

The attack on Friday afternoon unfolded hours before the start of Ramadan, Islam’s holy month, when most of the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims observe a daily religious fast.

The incident began when the man started shouting ethnic and religious slurs at two women who appeared to be Muslim on a MAX train at the Hollywood Transit Station, the Portland Police Department said in a statement. Three men who intervened were stabbed, two fatally.

The attacker, 35-year-old Jeremy Joseph Christian of Portland, was arrested shortly after he left the train, police said.

Christian was booked into jail on two counts of aggravated murder and additional charges of attempted murder, intimidation in the second degree and being a felon in possession of a restricted weapon, police said. He was ordered held without bail.

In a statement responding to Friday’s attack, the Council on American-Islamic Relations blamed an increase in anti-Muslim incidents in the United States in part on President Donald Trump’s focus on militant Islamist groups and anti-immigrant rhetoric.

“President Trump must speak out personally against the rising tide of Islamophobia and other forms of bigotry and racism in our nation that he has provoked through his numerous statements, policies and appointments that have negatively impacted minority communities,” said CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad.

The administration says that while it strongly opposes Islamist militants, it has no quarrel with Islam.

Following the attack, police said one of the men died at the scene while another died at a hospital. The third man was treated for non-life threatening injuries.

Witnesses told police two young women on the train during the attacker’s rant and the violence that followed were possibly Muslim. One wore a hijab.

The women left the train before officers arrived, police said, adding that detectives wanted to speak with them.

Portland police did not immediately identify the victims.

Trump Mental State Crumbling As He Compares Himself To Abe Lincoln And Calls Newspapers Fake News

President Trump continues to show signs of not handling the presidency mentally well. During his campaign rally in Florida, Trump compared himself to Abe Lincoln and quoted Thomas Jefferson to suggest that all newspapers are fake news.

Trump Compares Himself To Lincoln While Claiming All News Is Fake

Trump said, “The dishonest media, which has published one false story after another, with no sources even though they pretend they have them. They make them up in many cases. They just don’t want to report the truth—Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, and Abraham Lincoln, and many of our greatest presidents fought with the media and called them out oftentimes on their lies. When the media lies to people, I will never ever let them get away with it.”

The President continued, “In fact, Thomas Jefferson said nothing can be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself, he said, becomes suspicious when put into that polluted vehicle.”

Glenn Beck #fundie politicususa.com

On his radio show today, Glenn Beck claimed the Occupy Wall Street protesters are going to commit a terrorist act, collapse the nation, and kill millions of Americans.

Beck warned his listeners to stock up on food and water because Van Jones, unions, the left and Occupy Wall Street are planning an attack next week on Wall Street. Beck claimed that this is verified information that came to him from credible sources. Left unanswered is exactly why anyone would tell Glenn Beck this information before they would tell the FBI or Homeland Security. Speaking of the FBI, they might want to pay Mr. Beck a visit if he continues to make up false terror threats against America.

---

Beck played a clip from Al Sharpton’s MSNBC show, and then said, “These people are not interested in creative destruction. They are only interested in destruction. That leads to gas chambers. That leads to guillotines. That leads to millions dead. That leads to Mao. That leads to totalitarianism, every single time.”

Glenn Beck continued by going into one of his elaborate collapse of America conspiracy theories where banks were closed, stores were looted, and eventually the Occupy Wall Street protesters broke into his listeners homes because they have more than the protesters.
