    You know we have a ton of people that would read that, equate asylum seekers with illegal immigrants and say, "yeah, get on outta here to Canada, job stealers!"

    I don't know why Cabinet members ever say anything to the press, Trump will just make them look like liars and fools within the hour. The US announced we are withdrawing a number of troops from Germany, and Defense Secretary Esper said it was a strategic move that will improve NATO's position and increase deterrence against Russia. Trump pretty much immediately went in front of the press and revealed it was actually a move to punish Germany.

    It’s about time somebody scolded them for Hitler, they basically walked away from it scot-free.

    We all knew it was coming to this. Last election, he said the whole thing was rigged, unless he won. That in-person voting was rife with fraud. Now absentee voting is fraud. Now we should delay the election until it's safe to vote. But its not unsafe enough to force kids to go back to school and for people to not wear masks.

    It's been a wild morning. Trump tweeted about postponing the election, Trump's Tulsa rally finally killed Herman Cain, and a report was released detailing the biggest drop in US GDP ever. Not to mention I was woken up at 4 AM by a magnitude 4.5 earthquake.

    but doesn’t he want more advertisement? Especially of something so full of effusive praise like the convention?

    I’m not going to watch it, but I also like the idea of the press being there to show it live to ensure nothing completely fucked up or illegal happens or is said. If they don’t want them there, my question is why? What do they intend to hide?

    Just posting this for your own enjoyment/edification. My friend is a philosophy professor, and studied at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum when writing a dissertation, on the subject of “political myth” and the language of the Nazi party. He took his thoughts and combined them with current events, news, memes...

    You don’t have to buy it - he doesn’t make any money off the printing, he just made it something you can buy if you want. You can just preview the whole thing.
