Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!

Donald Trump's approval rating is 49%. Barack Obama's approval rating at the same point of his presidency (1 October 2012) was 49%.

Here is Kurt Schlichter's latest column.

Donald Trump: the president who was going to do something.

He was going to overturn Roe v. Wade, bring back coal jobs and build a border wall that Mexico would pay for. Zero for three.

He was going to bring down the federal deficit, raise the GDP to 3% or more and sustain job and wage growth via tax cuts. Zero for six, and that was pre-pandemic.

He would de-nuclearize North Korea and stop Iran’s progress toward nuclear weapons. Zero for eight.

He would eliminate Obamacare and coverage for pre-existing conditions, and reduce funding of Social Security and Medicare. Zero for 12, thank goodness.

He was going to drain the swamp. With over a dozen associates and supporters indicted, others with minimal qualifications in leadership positions and ties to communists and accused child-sex traffickers, that’s zero for 13.

He was going to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution. Those weren’t his words, but he did repeat them at his inauguration. Using his office to enrich himself personally and politically makes it zero for 14.

He was going to put America first. Instead he has rejected American intelligence, helping Russia go from relative isolation to a greater international influence. Our president is neither feared nor respected worldwide. Zero for 15.

He was going to provide his tax returns, reduce drug prices, expose voter fraud and defeat COVID-19. Zero for over 200,000 and counting.

Donald Trump wants another four years. Perhaps he has profited—and America has sacrificed—enough.

Sept. 23 article, “US death toll from virus hits 200,000.”

I read in the Statesman recently that the United States has over 200,000 dead from COVID-19. That is equivalent to having wiped Amarillo, population 199,371, off the face of the earth.

Other comparable cities:

– Little Rock, Ark.: The capital and largest city in Arkansas, population 197,312

– Salt Lake City, Utah: The capital and largest city in Utah, population 200,567

– Tallahassee, Fla.: The capital of Florida population 194,500

While some U.S. COVID-19 deaths were inevitable there could have been far fewer. South Korea has had 395 deaths and about one-sixth of the population of the U.S.

President Trump’s willful inaction, misdirection and downplaying of COVID-19 severity has gotten the U.S. to this excessive level of death. If terrorists had killed everyone in Akron, Ohio, population 197,597, or Rochester, N.Y., population 205,695, wouldn’t the citizens of the United States be demanding action against those responsible? Take decisive action on Nov. 3 with your votes.

Note from KBJ: If it weren't for President Trump, hundreds of thousands of additional deaths would have occurred. Buy a clue, Steven.
