LIBERATE AMERICA. |
It seems like the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act isn't working. Many Americans got the $1,200 in relief but it's being used to pay rent, trying to feed their families or pay medical bill with it. Nothing more than a few measly dollars to throw around.
Retail took a major hit.
The U.S. Postal Service could go out of business placing mail carriers and postal inspectors out of jobs. Trump and Republicans want to privatized the postal service and the Democrats said that privatizing it could impact millions of Americans who still need mail and rely on the USPS to get it.
Donald J. Trump has inserted himself into the #OperationGridlock controversy. He is trying to encourage his supporters to turn out for him in crucial states that he needs to win reelection.

Here's the map from 270 to Win.
So here's the postings on social media.
Today people started losing their jobs because of Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and the Radical Left, Do Nothing Democrats, who should immediately come back to Washington and approve legislation to help families in America. End your ENDLESS VACATION!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2020
LIBERATE MINNESOTA!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2020
LIBERATE MICHIGAN!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2020
LIBERATE VIRGINIA, and save your great 2nd Amendment. It is under siege!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2020
Is the president bipolar?
Cause just yesterday, he did his presser saying that governors "call the shots" when it comes to opening up their states. After his Coronavirus Task Force laid out its plans to Reopen America, Trump took a cautious approach to opening government. On Monday, he said that he could claim "absolute authority" when it comes to forcing states to open.

Trump has strayed off topics and ranted at rivals, the media and Congress for issues that have nothing to do with the coronavirus.
Why did Trump decide to tweet "LIBERATE" while we're in the midst of a pandemic?
Media Matters for America's Matt Gertz had figured it rather quickly.
Minutes after a Fox News segment on a protest against social distancing measures outside the Minnesota governor's office, by conservative "Liberate Minnesota" group, Trump tweets "LIBERATE MINNESOTA!"— Matthew Gertz (@MattGertz) April 17, 2020

Trump spent a portion of his time watching Fox News and seeing a segment or an agitator's rant.
The three states have Democratic governors.
Gov. Tim Waltz of Minnesota, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan and Gov. Ralph Northam of Virginia are Democrats. They have faced protests from the far-white because of their stay-at-home orders.
Trump lies about Obama's presidency. |
Gov. Gavin Newsom of California, Gov. Mike DeWine of Ohio, Gov. Roy Cooper of North Carolina and Gov. Tony Evers of Wisconsin. Three of the governors are Democrats and one of the governors is a Republican.
Trump decided to toss Barack Obama and Joe Biden (his eventual opponent) into the mix.
Biden/Obama were a disaster in handling the H1N1 Swine Flu. Polling at the time showed disastrous approval numbers. 17,000 people died unnecessarily and through incompetence! Also, don’t forget their 5 Billion Dollar Obamacare website that should have cost close to nothing!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 17, 2020
He claims that while then president Obama was handling two wars and an economic recession, he claims that Obama failed at handling the H1N1 pandemic.
Once again, lying about how Obama's handling of the health crisis. The H1N1 pandemic killed 12,000 Americans. Then president Obama handled the crisis and declared a public emergency in April. An anti-vaccine was available by mid-October of 2009.
Barack Obama ordered a team to create the White House Pandemic Response team to combat potential viral outbreaks. Trump fired the team in 2018 to cut costs.
On Wednesday, thousands of protesters showed up to Michigan's state capitol in their vehicles to demonstrate against the order.
The protest - called "Operation Gridlock" - was devised by the Michigan Conservative Coalition and the Michigan Freedom Fund, which is linked to the family of Trump's Education Secretary Betsy DeVos.
It featured some of the elements of a Trump campaign rally including "lock her up" chants and large Trump 2020 flags. Some protesters also brought Confederate flags, despite Michigan being part of the Union during the Civil War.
And on Friday, protesters showed up outside the residence of Minnesota's Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, saying they, too, wanted to get back to work - despite widespread COVID-19 testing not being available yet.
The Confederate Flag has nothing to do with the coronavirus. |
Friday's tweets come as a surprise because on Thursday when Trump was asked what his message to the demonstrators was, he declined to jump in the fray.
"It's been a tough process for people," Trump said.
"And I watched, in one particular state, where they were - they want to get back. They want to get back. There were very strict sanctions that were put on people, that was probably the most strict of all," Trump added, a likely reference to Michigan.
A reporter then asked Trump if would urge those protesters to listen to their local authorities.
"I think they're listening. I think they listen to me," Trump said. "They seem to be protesters that like me and respect this opinion. And my opinion is the same as just about all the governors," Trump said.
But governors, including Virginia's Ralph Northam, have been extending business closures.
On Wednesday Northam announced that entertainment businesses in the commonwealth, including movie theaters and gyms, would remain closed through May 8.
Previously that policy was set to expire on April 23.
In his tweet directed at Virginia, Trump also advised residents to "save your great 2nd Amendment."
"It is under siege!" Trump said.
A week ago, Northam signed a gun control bill into law.
Fox News is state-run propaganda. It's nothing more than a propaganda outlet for Donald J. Trump and Republicans.
