‘Forgetful’ Democrats?
If you watched any of the TV supposed ‘news’ programmes yesterday, you’ll have seen grovelling reports of Saint Michelle Obama (wife of Nobel-prize-winning Saint Barry Saint Obama):
I can’t quite remember exactly why Saint Barry Obama got his lucrative Nobel Peace Prize before he actually did anything as president. Nor can I quite remember what he actually achieved during his 8 years in the White House apart from becoming phenomenally rich.
Anyway, Saint Michelle was wheeled out as the big star of the first day of the Democrat conference to exhort the unwashed masses to vote for senile old Joe Biden.
The fragrant Mrs Obama, who tried to connect with viewers by claiming (possibly implausibly?) that she “hated politics”, picked up on the coronavirus theme which was at the core of Democratic attacks on Mr Trump throughout the evening. “More than 150,000 have died and our economy is in shambles because of a virus that this president downplayed for too long,” she said, in a pre-recorded speech carried live again and again and again by most US and UK networks.
But hold on a minute. Maybe Michelle is as forgetful as she is fragrant? Throughout the Chinese Covid-19 plague crisis, the Democrats and their obedient US mainstream media have lambasted everything Trump has done. When Trump imposed a travel ban from China in January (long before other countries) the Democrats and their sycophantic media accused Trump of racism and xenophobia. When the travel ban was extended to Europe and then the UK, there was once again outrage among the Democrats and their media chums.
Moreover, in accusing Trump of “downplaying the virus for too long” fragrant Michelle seems to have totally ‘forgotten’ the tsunami of criticism against Trump from the Democrats. When HHS Secretary Alex Azar declared a Public Health Emergency none other than Trump’s rival for the White House, Joe Biden, called it “Hysterical Xenophobia” and “Fear Mongering”.
Did that slip your mind, Michelle?
And when Trump started to propose social distancing, the mainstream media and Democrats accused him of over-reacting. One of Trump’s fiercest critics, Bill De Blasio, Democrat Mayor of New York (the US city with the highest Chinese plague death rate) seems to have forgotten that he (De Blasio) originally claimed that the Chinese plague was not particularly contagious and was “no worse than a common cold”.
After Trump in January declared a “humanitarian and security crisis” during a primetime Oval Office address, leading Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer said Trump was working to “manufacture a crisis, stoke fear and divert attention from the turmoil in his administration.”
Maybe honest Michelle ‘forgot’ that too?
Democrat party leader Tom Perez also called it “manufactured.” Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., described it as a “‘crisis’ that doesn’t exist.”
And Michelle, do you remember Senator Elizabeth Warren, a former Democrat presidential hopeful and self-proclaimed Native American?
Senator Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren was also pretty damning in accusing Trump of over-reacting to the Coronavirus and tweeted at the time that “we’re not falling” for the “fake crisis”.
Another ‘celebrity’ wheeled out to endorse Old Joe Biden yesterday was former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell. You remember Colin Powell don’t you?
There are some cynics who view Powell’s speech to the UN to justify going to war against Iraq as a pack of lies:
When accusing Trump of being economical with the truth, Mr Powell seems to have ‘forgotten’ his own Oscar-winning performance at the UN.
The Democrats were particularly cock-a-hoop over a supposed Republican like Powell supporting Democrat Joe Biden’s campaign. But Powell, who endorsed Barack Obama’s presidential bids in 2008 and 2012 and voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, has been a fierce critic of Trump for years.
Hypocrites and liars?
In fact, yesterday there was hardly a Democrat who didn’t lambast Trump for supposedly over-reacting to the Chinese Covid-19 plague and yet now we see fragrant Michelle (and the rest of the Democrats) accusing Trump of “downplaying the virus for too long”.
Liars and hypocrites?
Joe Biden – putting the ‘Dem’ into dementia?
While the UK media continue to portray Joe Biden as the bold saviour of the world, here’s the Trump campaign’s latest ad.
By the way, you won’t hear or see any mention of Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline on any of the Biden-adoring, Trump-loathing UK mainstream media so Biden’s performance in this video might come as a bit of a shock to some readers.
I don’t know which is crueller – the ad attacking Biden’s obvious mental decline or the Democrats pushing a candidate who is clearly unfit to be elected and should be in an old age home playing bingo and doing jigsaw puzzles:
I wonder if there will be a ‘second wave’ lockdown in October/November? Perfectly timed to disrupt Trump and Brexit.
What did Obama do? Increased unemployment, increased the cost of medical care, made energy costs “skyrocket”, caused division by making black Americans believe they were being oppressed, and made a pointless deal with Iran over their development of nuclear weapons.
Short biography of Michelle Obama, a chip on her shoulder the size of a log.

Strange how our media made time for that grovelling Mr(s) Obama but have never aired the cringe-making speeches by the Democrats senile-dementia suffering presidential candidate !
Roy, Mr(s) Obama…..do you suspect something?

Chris, I certainly couldn’t comment on rumours that circulate 🙂
Also, re no vaccine – no entry. The cashless society we are plummeting into has certain attributes regarding control!!!
