Online Trolls Mock President over Death of Brother, Robert Trump

Breitbart

"Online trolls lost no time in mocking President Donald Trump in response to news that his younger brother, Robert Trump, died Saturday.

“ 'He was not just my brother, he was my best friend,” Trump said in a statement. “He will be greatly missed, but we will meet again.”

“ 'Almost immediately after, tweets calling for the president’s death were posted using the hashtag #wrongtrump, which quickly became the number four trending topic on the website,” the U.S. Sun reported.

“Dear Grim Reaper, You took the #wrongtrump,” Twitter user @TalbertSwan wrote.

"The president visited his brother Robert at the hospital on Friday afternoon in New York City before returning to his club at Bedminster, New Jersey, but Swan claimed Trump just wanted to spend his time “golfing and tweeting.” . . .

If so, I regret that Mr. Trump did that; just as I resented this:
Mr Obama now admits decision to go golfing minutes after commiserating with the nation over the beheading of US journalist James Foley looked bad, but offers no apology.  Hard to "hold back tears", was it?

The 'optics', which included front page pictures of Mr Obama smiling and relaxing in a golf buggy at a course on Martha's Vineyard where he was on holiday, were met with a barrage of unfavourable news headlines and scornful commentary from both Republicans and Democrats.

Why We Can’t Trust Postal Workers With Our Ballots

The American Spectator

     The two largest postal worker unions have endorsed Joe Biden for President.

"If you are queasy about entrusting the U.S. Postal Service with a vastly expanded role in our electoral system in the midst of a crucial election, the following news will exacerbate your nausea. Last Friday, the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) followed the lead of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) by endorsing presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. Thus far, most objections to increasing the role of the USPS in the election process involve the inevitable logistical problems that will accompany a precipitous expansion of mail-in voting. The addition of overt partisanship among postal workers to inefficiency renders it obvious that the widespread expansion of vote-by-mail is dangerous.

"On behalf of nearly 300,000 active and retired letter carriers, we are proud to endorse Vice President Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to lead this country as president and vice president.… The Executive Council’s decision to endorse the Biden/Harris ticket was based on the input of our membership through polling, surveys, responses to our candidate questionnaire.… The decision is also partly informed by what we have seen from the current administration with regard to the Postal Service.

"Even if we assume that most postal workers are nonpartisan, there is enormous potential for chaos associated with a wholesale increase in absentee voting. The leadership of the USPS has already warned most states that millions may be disfranchised by late delivery of ballots. The Washington Post reports, “The U.S. Postal Service recently sent detailed letters to 46 states and D.C. warning that it cannot guarantee that all ballots cast by mail for the November election will arrive in time to be counted.” As alarming as such warnings are, they aren’t as perilous as a politicized postal service. Trump voters simply can’t trust their ballots to mail carriers represented by unions that endorse his opponent:" . . .

Ayanna Pressley writes the GOP's ads for them: Vote Dem for more unrest

Now we have this squad leftist, admitting and advocating exactly what conservatives say they're advocating. Up until now, they have tried to dissociate themselves from it, calling the rioters outliers or else saying the rioters don't exist. Joe Biden claims he's against riots and looting but has yet to condemn these so-called "peaceful protestors."

"So a vote for Democrats is a vote for unrest, riots, looting and all the other things brought to us by the enraged left. 

"Which is exactly what Republicans are seeing as driving voters back for them as President Trump's polling numbers edge upward.

"Here's a June poll from Morning Consult from June, according to Forbes, apparently showing that not only do Americans abhor riots, most want the Army called in to take care of it:

Some 58% of registered voters polled by Morning Consult support the deployment of the military to aid police responding to protests, with 33% of the 1,624 respondents saying they’d “strongly support” it and only 30% opposing.

"The GOP already is making political hay on the matter, too:"

Media Lie When They Try To Sell Kamala Harris As A ‘Moderate’

Issues & Insights  "Joe Biden won his nomination by taking the primary votes of rank-and-file Democrats wrongly convinced he was a “moderate” among the motley assemblage of socialists, so-called progressives and hard-left remnants from the ’60s and ’70s he ran against. Biden isn’t a moderate. The media only said he was. Now the media are trying the same trick with Kamala Harris. Don’t believe the lie.
"The press is already in full dissembling mode regarding where Harris sits on the political spectrum.
"The Washington Post took the cake for chutzpah, tweeting its opinion that “Harris is a small-c conservative, party-friendly pick — which makes her just right for Biden.”
"The New York Times, no slouch itself in the leftist department, dubbed Harris a “pragmatic moderate.”
"Meanwhile, ABC’s George Stephanopoulos claimed the California senator “comes from the middle-of-the-road, moderate wing of the Democratic Party.”
"Meanwhile, both the Los Angeles Times and Associated Press used the more wishy-washy term “centrist” to describe Harris’ ideological turn.
"These are not mere differences of opinion or analysis of where Harris stands on the issues, and the writers know that. No, they are flat-out lies by journalists who have abandoned all pretense of objectivity, fairness or factuality.
"We’ve talked about her left-wing proclivities both here and here. Don’t take our word for it. "Here’s what former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau had to say about Harris’ supposed moderation:

“It was hilarious to me that she’s being called, in all this coverage, a ‘moderate,’ like Joe Biden has found a fellow moderate or centrist,” he said. “She supports something extremely close to ‘Medicare for All,’ which Bernie Sanders acknowledged in his statement supporting her. She’s for the Green New Deal. She has one of the most liberal records in the U.S. Senate.”
"Say what you will about Favreau, but he’s dead on in his description. Americans shouldn’t be deceived." . . .

A Vote For Biden Puts Far-Left Kamala Harris In Line To Be President — Scared Yet?

Picking Harris was no surprise. The Democratic hard left, which today governs the party, likes to shove people in boxes. No one’s ever a mere human being, but a race, a gender, a religion, a political category. As such, Harris checked three big boxes for the Democrats: Woman, check. African-American, check. Far-left progressive, check.

KA ma-la; Ka MA la, Ka-ma-LAH, we hardly knew ya.

Now, criticizing Kamala . . . Harris has been officially declared racist and cisgender and sexist, as well as sexist, cisgender, and racist, by The New York Times, all of pinko Twitter, and the Fredocons, so we better not criticize her. Got that? No criticism. You must just sit back and let the tsunami of excitement created by the nomination of this avaricious grasper wash over you.  Kurt Schlichter

THIS Is Why Trump HATES Kamala Harris  "Pres. Trump just called Sen. Kamala Harris "extraordinarily nasty" for her grilling of Brett Kavanaugh -- when she pressed Kavanaugh on whether he had ever discussed the Mueller investigation with Trump's lawyer."

In spite of media protestations to the contrary, now is the perfect time to talk about whether Sen. Kamala Harris’ stances are just meaningless words uttered in order to get ahead. If not now, when?  

She seems to believe that by repeating the word "debate" over and over, it negates everything she attacked Biden about. So was she lying then, or is she lying now?

. . . "Sounds like what she’s saying is that her ripping him to shreds in that first debate was just words, meaningless. Like her claiming she believed Biden’s accusers last year but seemingly forgetting that this year, this is another example of Harris being willing to say anything if it sounds good enough to get her ahead politically." . . .

Does Kamala Harris Excite Absolutely Anyone at All?  . . . "The Trump campaign, then, can focus on depressing the Democratic enthusiasm by continuing their assault on Biden’s decades of unproductive work in Washington D.C. and Kamala Harris’ past and her lack of consistency. These are the angles that the Trump team should take (assuming the President can stay on message, which seems to be a continuing problem for him), and it is very likely that a lot of the more progressive voters could be so depressed by the election that they simply stay home." . . .

Biden Staffers Donated to Nonprofit That Bails Out Violent Suspects

Newsmax  . . . "Biden says he opposes the cash bail system, with his website labeling it as the "modern-day debtors' prison" that "disproportionately harms low-income individuals." For that reason, the former vice-president plans to lead a national effort to end cash bail and reform the nation's pretrial system.

"The bails are paid, MFF interim executive director Greg Lewin, told Fox News, because the organization wants to stop the bail system 

" 'I often don't even look at a charge when I bail someone out," Greg Lewin, the interim executive director of MFF, commented. "I will see it after I pay the bill because it is not the point. The point is the system we are fighting.' "
