I agree the media is slime and they will do anything for a story and I remember them being particularly harsh on Bush Jr. about his smarts, but IMO the president of the USA should handle himself with dignity.

They've tried being statesmen already in the past. The media sensed it as weakness and pounced on them like the jackals they are. I love having someone who is willing to tell them to shut the **** up and is completely disrespectful right back at them when they try slinging their usual ****. They deserve no better and they don't have any idea how to handle him. I bask in their humiliation at every press conference.

Same here! Think we are doing the Italian House in Westfield tonight. We have been tipping an extra 20-30% for these poor servers that are trying to make a living off of half their normal tables at most. Bru Burger last night was pretty empty. Don't see how restaurants will stay open with having additional overhead and 20-30% of their regular customers.

How was IH? I know Scott Wolf fairly well. Savor was rusty on service and timing, which is to be expected after two months off. I walked past 24 people in that place tonight. All of us breathing the same air, in the same room. This slow ramp up is pure bullshit. They’re trying to kill off independent businesses. It’s all leading up to the biggest landslide win for us good guys in the history of the world. I cannot wait.

You dont necessarily have to be a statesman and just take it. Fight them with facts and evidence not silly nicknames. Like I said show pics / videos of Biden w/ women / kids and ask the media / dems how they can defend that. Force them to answer. Ask the media why they are not covering it more , ask the dems / metoo people how they can support that etc etc. No need to rant and rave just stay calm and composed it will be much more effective.
 
Trump is what he is. As for me, I'm pretty neutral on the guy, don't love him, don't hate him.

Where he gets into trouble is the way he exaggerates. His ego doesn't allow him to just tell you what it is. No, it has to be bigger and better than anything before it. And he will tell you it is, even when it isn't.

Like when he said he totally rebuilt the military. He must not have been talking about our military. And if he was, it appears he missed Fort Drum, Fort Bragg, Fort Campbell and Fort Hood, to name a few. Units still have the same ****** equipment with the same lack of spares or repair parts. Now if he wants to say he spent more money on the military than anyone in history, that is true. But this military hasn't been rebuilt.

60 percent of the military budget goes to the Air Force so that we can renovate the Dorms. :)

Yuge. Greatest ever. Bigly.
I think Trump has a natural tendency to make whoever he is talking to feel good about themselves. I'm trying to take a page out of that book instead of being straight-up or a Debbie Downer with people.

That's the best idea ever, Ron. People tell me all the time that they've never heard a better idea.

For those earlier in the thread who were applauding Sweden's hands-off approach.

Sweden becomes country with highest coronavirus death rate per capita
https://news.yahoo.com/sweden-becomes-country-highest-coronavirus-133234368.html

Sweden has now overtaken the UK, Italy and Belgium to have the highest coronavirus per capita death rate in the world, throwing its decision to avoid a strict lockdown into further doubt.

According to figures collated by the Our World in Data website, Sweden had 6.08 deaths per million inhabitants per day on a rolling seven-day average between May 13 and May 20.

This is the highest in the world, above the UK, Belgium and the US, which have 5.57, 4.28 and 4.11 respectively.

However, Sweden has only had the highest death rate over the past week, with Belgium, Spain, Italy, the UK and France, still ahead over the entire course of the pandemic.

Food and service was good as always, but given the fact that there was only about 12 people total in the restaurant the entire time we were there, we were able to chat quite a bit with our waitress. This slow ramp up in conjunction with the media scaring the **** out of everyone, is KILLING the restaurant industry and it is going to bankrupt a lot of servers, bartenders...etc. Most restaurants would probably have less financial strain if they just shut down, the overhead of having to pay payroll for servers, FICA...etc. when you are getting 10-15% of your normal business is just ridiculous. I have been on construction sites for the past 3 months with 50-100 people working in the same building, at the same time, with no working HVAC and we have not had one report of Covid-19 on any of the projects.

That is based off of confirmed cases, if 40% of their 10 mil. population have had the virus then that throws the numbers out the window. Sweden is projected to have 5000 deaths out of 10 million population, .0005. The US is projected to have 140,000 deaths out of 360 million population, .0004. Sweden did not decimate their economy or add trillions to their federal debt.
