What a petty, petty little bitch Trump is.

After Trump Attacks Whitmer, She Says Vendors Aren't Sending Desperately Needed Coronavirus Supplies
"They're being told not to send stuff to Michigan."

After President Donald Trump issued scathing comments about Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, saying she's "not stepping up," and "doesn't know what's going on," she told WWJ 950 the state is having trouble getting the equipment they need to fight the novel coronavirus.

"What I've gotten back is that vendors with whom we've procured contracts -- They're being told not to send stuff to Michigan," Whitmer said live on air. "It's really concerning, I reached out to the White House last night and asked for a phone call with the president, ironically at the time this stuff was going on."

The other stuff was Trump speaking with Sean Hannity on FOX News about Whitmer, a Democrat who has said very pointed things about the federal government's lack of coordinated response to the coronavirus crisis. Trump said of Whitmer, "She is a new governor, and it's not been pleasant ... "We've had a big problem with the young — a woman governor. You know who I'm talking about — from Michigan. We don't like to see the complaints."​
 
So we have a governor baselessly attacking Donald Trump for ordering supplies be withheld from Michigan?

That’s a serious charge and I think the evidentiary burden for me to believe such a thing would be quite high.
 
I mean, this is pretty much Trump's MO though, yes?

And we have an asshole of a president more worried about his whittle feeling being hurt than people.....
 
Democrats must really be worried about Michigan if they're willing to pull this crap during a pandemic.

I of course reserve the right to change my mind when and if she produces evidence for this claim.

Nobody cares what the imaginary "burden" you invent to protect Trump is.


He openly stated that he doesn't want to help blue states if they say bad things about him. He pretty much repeated it and aimed it specifically at this governor, right there bolded in the OP. And apparently, vendors are acting on his wishes (probably hoping the admin does not contrive to deny them bailout money, which is something they tried to do by trying to get a 500 billion dollar slush fund with no accountability).

He says it using the vague and incoherent language that you guys seize upon to defend him for anything and everything. And because we know you do that, we don't care about your dishonest "burden" standard. We can see.

I would pay very good money indeed to see Donald Trump in a situation where he had to literally counter-punch. Put him in a cage match with someone. The main question would be whether he dies of a heart attack before he gets KO'd.

As a life longer Michigander who has been voting since the 1972 election, its already a done deal. In Michigan we love our governor. And Trump is yesterdays garbage stinking up the kitchen.

I suspect he'd come down with bone spurs before he got in the cage.

LOL, keep dreaming. Old dementia Joe will never be in the WH. Democrats have divided this country and Americans have had enough. You people just love to cause pain on everyone and it's sickening.
 
Here's how it's going to unfold: Whitmer will appear desperate. Trump will blow her off. Michigan residents will seeth. Then Trump will ride in with a generous amount of aid which will get much more attention than otherwise and he'll look like the hero.

Is it political? Maybe, but the bottom line is there's only so many supplies to hand out right now anyway. It is interesting to me because Michigan is such a desirable state to win during elections plus there's talk of Biden picking Whitmer as his running mate.

He's certainly not going to pull strong in Macomb county now.

COVID-19 analysis shows Eastpointe is county's current 'hot spot' | Coronavirus | macombdaily.com

As Macomb County's death toll from the novel coronavirus continues to rise, county officials have developed an epidemiologic analysis that shows the majority of the county's confirmed cases are in Eastpointe.

Nineteen more have died statewide from COVID-19, including four in Macomb County as of 10 a.m. Wednesday, according to data compiled by state officials. There are now 2,295 cases reported in Michigan.

The four local fatalities bring the county's total of seven since the start of March.

There are over 3600 cases in Michigan now, with 92 deaths.

NYT by county shows

Michigan Macomb 404 cases, 14 deaths

Oakland county is even worse with 824 cases and 26 deaths.

I imagine Wayne Co. is off the charts:

Michigan Wayne 1,810 37

Surprisingly not much worse than Oakland, but this was 10 hours ago.

President Donald Trump says he’s willing to help blue-state governors who are struggling to contain coronavirus outbreaks — but only if they’re willing to stop criticizing him in exchange. “It’s a two-way street,” Trump told Fox News on Tuesday. “They have to treat us well, also. They can’t say, ‘Oh, gee, we should get this, we should get that.’”

Trump’s comments came as Andrew Cuomo — the Democratic governor of New York, the state currently at the heart of America’s coronavirus outbreak — pleaded with Trump to do more to provide his state (and others) with medical gear and ventilators. Trump’s line seems to be that Cuomo isn’t in a position to make demands unless he refrains from criticizing the federal government (and, by extension, him).

It's one of those situations where it is quite obviously what he is saying but because the stupid a-hole only has the vocabulary of a concussed fifth grader, Trumpists can claim he was actually saying something else.

Trump won by how many votes?

And among which demographics was the Dem turnout low?
 
Previously I posted how the printing company sent us a message, bragging that they were complying with shutdown regulations and even more for a total shutdown for approximately a month. Our response was we will remove offering the item within a week unless we can find another printer company in them to get it printed. We sell only a couple thousand copies a month, a minor item (retail $27, average price about $15, cost to print and ship $3.30.)

The owner phoned us, somehow turned out they could get started on it next week.
