Lmaoo he did everything right!!!! That’s the issue with politics today, idiots saying all yes or all no
- ClaudeFather



It truly terrifies me that people think this.

This is objectively false.

As to the protesters, everyone has the right to peacefully assemble whether I agree with them or not.

Unfortunately when your protest is guaranteed to kill people and extend a pandemic, that is not peaceful.

If you think 100% of doctors are somehow "out to get you" you've got problems.

I never said I like how he speaks. Quite frankly, I think he's a bit annoying when he. Tweets and toots his own horn , but I couldn't imagine speaking everyday and NEVER getting ANY credit or positive coverage from 95% of the media.

He's human, not perfect.

He's done more for minorities then any other President and it's getting old hearing him be called a racist. He's not in a bubble. The way he's treated breeds alot of what he says.

As far as his actions and what he's doing the past 3+ years......I unapologetically support him

Just swallow up all that propaganda! mmmmmmmmmmm tasty!

Can you explain that one? Several Presidents, starting with Abe Lincoln, would probably like a word with you.

Please show me where I said " he did everything right"!.

I didn't know pointing out facts as to what he has done was calling him perfect.

Sorry you got triggered by hearing that Trump has done some good. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

What have the experts said regarding when it is safe for people to get back to work and to open schools and restaurants again? Should location be considered, or does everyone have to wait until NY is at a certain level?

Regardless of when it is done, there will be - with 100% certainty - another increase in cases and thus deaths. Do you then shut everything down again? The shelter in place and stay at home orders were done to flatten the curve so as to not overwhelm the healthcare workers and resources. It is not done so that people will not get the virus (because now that it is out, you can't put the toothpaste back in.

This is not an endorsement of any political figure (for the record, I did not vote for the office of President during the last election as I was not going to vote for the least smelly of two turds). This is simply asking about when it is safe to open back up. The longer this goes on, the less money the country generates and ultimately, the less help the government can provide.

He is just gross. I dont care how he is treated, maybe Karma for the decades being a poopty person.

Have you read anything the Governor said!?

Trump, which I don't like,any times is fighting back against people who've attacked him.

Minnesota governor has ripped him from the beginning, and has also hinted that restrictions might last for many more months- to a year. Kind of ridiculous for her to say that.

Again, I don't agree with his tweet referencing Minnesota

I don’t know the back and forth nonsense lasting how long between the two but just in these times to tweet that, it’s pathetic. I don’t think you can put a timeline on it which I don’t like how they keep doing, all dependent on how we are progressing.

Jimmy boy, I don't by the propaganda on either side.

Again,. I like much, not all, of what Trump has done...nit because of what media says, but because of what I haves seen and heard myself.

Tanner liked the Domi for Galchenyuk trade, because the Domi family are conservatives.

Sounds like a true analytics guy.

- senstroll



I don't blame you, Canada can't rape America on trade deals anymore. I don't have to like the personality of my leaders, just agree with what they are doing...for the most part.

Not going to lie, he also makes me laugh alot! I enjoy seeing him rip apart these stuffy, know it all reporters and politicians.

Totally agree that a timeline is dumb, but having a guideline is OK.

So what’s Trump doing about it? A stimulus check...yea that goes a long way when you don’t have a job and have to pay a mortgage groceries and all other things, especially folks with families. Liberate Minnesota!!!
- ClaudeFather


I agree that the stimulus check won't go very far. The other issue is that the system is not built to handle the flow of 22M unemployment claims in a matter of a few weeks. Trump is doing everything he can do, even with a Democratic house and democratic leaders who drag their feet to include their agenda that has nothing to do with the situation that is delaying getting aid out.

For sure, it is making things incredibly hard to have such resistance from both sides. You’d hope that they would be that crap to the side but they just never will stop.

You're an adult. Tanner wouldn't understand as he's too busy getting drunk. I don't have to live with Trump. I don't have to like HIM. I have zero interest in what he says (bloviates) or tweets (some which are hysterical). I care a great deal to what he DOES. So, if you point out record unemployment, prison reform, record minority unemployment, enforcing border LAW, making trade fairer, bringing manufacturing home, etc., you're called a liar, racist, etc., and a shrill for Fox. For once America is waking up to the lies of the left, and the "mainstream media" and left are going hyperbolic over it. Keep fighting Trump, your army is huge and growing. BLEXIT and WALK AWAY are the lefts worst nightmare.

Don't forget, Dems will do whatever they can to stop Trump from getting elected, even if it means subjecting the American people to more hardship.

Yep, I'm sick with empathy. You need to learn what it is and then exercise it. Seek therapy Tanner. I didn't think it was possible to be any more wrong about something than you are in general about the sport of hockey. I was obviously wrong.
- MJL


Tanner is often too liberal for me, but if he exemplifies the extreme left, then you are often the extreme right. His antithesis, except routinely lost in gut feelings and no facts.

I am a republican that hates trump and would never vote for him, for reasons exactly like we are seeing now. No leadership, poor planning, poor communication. Playing the celebrity game when nothing is on the line works well and good, but when the issue is one of substance, like war or pandemic, he will always be lacking, and now people are dying because of the uninformed extremists like yourself that defend his every move even if we know they are the wrong ones.

No, I don’t think dems have a better solution now either, but that doesn’t excuse Trump or give us the right to ignore facts and defend a poor leader.

Amen.

I'm a normal working class , educated person. I am a liberal, but I am hardly extreme. My views are dictated by facts. I suspect in a normal situation you and I would be about the same distance from centre but on opposite sides.

Trump has capitalized on the anti intellectual, anti education, anti professional anger of millions of people who are legitimately being screwed.

He just screws them worse but he tells them they're always right so they like him.
