[Some] "hotels have donated food and rooms for emergency personnel except for one:Trump"

Not "all". Some.

Las Vegas Review-Journal  "As hotel rooms across the country sit empty amid the COVID-19 pandemic, some operators are offering their properties to health care workers and first responders looking for a place to rest away from home.
"Las Vegas-based Diamond Resorts announced late last month that all open, Diamond-managed properties would offer complimentary accommodations to medical personnel and first responders. That offer includes Polo Towers, Cancun Resort and Desert Paradise Resort in Las Vegas."
. . . 
"Caesars spokesman Richard Broome said the company is not offering housing because it does not have staff working at any of its properties to service guests. Representatives of MGM Resorts International, Las Vegas Sands Corp., Boyd Gaming Corp. and Red Rock Resorts did not comment."
In the comments to this post:
The fake was to claim that Trump Hotel was the only not participating. I could not contain myself and decided to call another hotel in LV, Tuscany Suites and Casino, to inquire.and was advised that their management is considering but is not providing rooms at this time. Thus, Trump is not the only. I would have challenged similarly if Tuscany had been used instead of Trump in the original post. Just a false suggestion.
PnSfromLA  Los Angeles, Destination Expert for Las Vegas" commented:
"As an FYI the Trump campaign has been placing large food orders in many cities at locally owned restaurants and donating the food to hospitals, first responders in the area. That was leaked out about a week ago."

 "Aside from Polo, no Strip resorts, and I am being generous including it in that category, are providing rooms. One, that is a logistical and security nightmare. Two for most properties it doesn't make sense since the rooms have no kitchens (yes I know Trump does). Three, Vegas is compact with a great freeway system. It isn't like the hospitals are right on The Strip or the city is huge. Why is this even needed? These first responders are still getting paid and have homes. It isn't like NYC where most people don't have cars and EMS or hospital personnel have to travel a long distance on filthy subways."

At the above link there are many comments, pro and con. I chose these to stand by a president who donates his salary to charities and has no desire to enrich himself through his international connections, unlike popular Democrats who both held and sought the office of President. And rented out rooms in the White House. Tunnel Dweller.

Mitt Romney: A weathervane in a hurricane

Mitt’s “Bipartisan” Threat To President  
. . . But seeing as the Dems did EXACTLY what Trump said they would do by weaponizing the pandemic, these idiots are now trying to investigate Trump for his response to the Wuhan virus… And Mitt’s letter is meant to get him to comply with their investigation.
Mitt can come through for the right cause if the wind blows just right, but how will anyone know?  Romney Speaks Out Against Democrats Who Shot Down Coronavirus Relief Bill

Mitt Romney went off on Senate Dems as “irresponsible and reckless” 
"Senator Mitt Romney usually sides with Democrats on anything important but today he unleashed on Senate Democrats for shutting down the virus relief package, calling their actions “irresponsible and reckless.”
“Nothing in the Senate has shocked me, until today,” Romney tweeted. “Standing in the way of a critically needed rescue package is irresponsible and reckless. Dems say not enough money to state: nearly $200 billion isn’t chump change. Hospitals get at least $75 billion.”
He said emphatically that they had a complete lack of understanding of economics.
"“As for funds for companies,” Romney said while referring to the money that companies would get from the government so they can stay in business; “it’s to keep entities that employ millions of Americans from folding—it’s to save jobs. Keep this up a little longer and we will go from social distancing to social destruction.' ” . . .

For years, Romney has been known for his lack of convictions:  
Mitt Romney: A weathervane in a hurricane  . . . "His problem going into 2012 is much different. This is not the case of someone who changed his positions or evolved or was being politically expedient.  
"It is much worse than that. The real question now, after more and more continuous flip-flops, is whether Mitt Romney stands for much of anything, other than a burning desire to get elected president of the United States. Does he have a core? Does he have anything that he truly believes in? Is he only interested in “being there,” to quote the title from the Peter Sellers movie?
"The flip-flops go beyond a series of social issues or stands from his Massachusetts days — he is a serial flip-flopper. Immigration, healthcare, the stimulus, flat taxes, the recent Ohio initiatives — the propensity to change his positions appears to be part and parcel of who Mitt Romney is as a person.
"He is very much in the moment. He wants to please the audience he is speaking to, no matter what, just like a salesman. But, in today’s world, this stuff goes viral." . . . '



What about the aspirational president, Joe Biden, man?

Democrats Likely to Dump Biden   "As Democrat power brokers survey the constantly shifting ground in the lead-up to the national election, it is not hard to guess the candidate strategy discussions going on in their super-secret supervillain lairs.
 
Plan A: Hide a Biden
"The first strategy is to run nobody at all, which is another way of saying they stick with Joe Biden.  The idea here is to use the current COVID-19 environment to keep Joe Biden safely tucked away and quiet while the media and surrogates do the heavy reinvention.
"This is not an altogether bad strategy and probably the best one they have if Biden remains the candidate since it is becoming obvious to everyone not named Joe Biden that Biden's sharpest days are long behind him.  Let's be honest: he was never that sharp even in his glory days, but he was certainly a lot more lucid when he helped spearhead the despicable character assassination of Robert Bork." . . .
. . . 
"For the Democrats, it is vital to drive Bernie Sanders from the race.  Otherwise, he will have a compelling argument to inherit the candidate mantle when Biden is forced to drop out.  This is why Democrats are Whooping like banshees for him to get out.  Even today, the media are giving off a pungent odor of desperation as they fill the airwaves, screeching that it is time for Sanders to drop out of the race.
"This has far less to do with his presence harming Biden than with setting the ground for the Cuomo shuffle.  Driving out Sanders is practically a prerequisite before completing Plan B.
"While nobody should doubt that Democrat power brokers lack the ruthlessness to replace Biden with whoever they want, it would be far messier if Sanders was still sticking around.  So the man of the people and three homes will drop out.  The only question is the favorable terms of the surrender."' . . .
. . . So which will it be?  It's a tough call, but I look for Democrats to try to make the switch after finally deciding that old electable Joe is actually an albatross in confused clothing.  Biden's real problem is that the Democrats would run Lucifer if they thought he was the candidate most likely to win.  A canceled convention will make the chicanery all the easier.  Look for Biden to drop out and Cuomo to be drafted into the race by August, if not sooner."   Emphasis added, TD

Joe Biden Praises His ‘Dear Friend’ Bernie Sanders for Creating a Progressive ‘Movement,’ Calling It a ‘Good Thing’…   Video

Bernie Sanders: I Will Work With Joe Biden To Move Our Progressive Ideas Forward
"Keyword: Our."

Poll finds Biden with 11-point national lead on Trump   " . . .53 percent support against 42 percent support for Trump. That’s the largest margin for any poll released this month.
"A Monmouth University survey released on Thursday found Biden with a 4-point national lead. Most other recent surveys put Biden’s advantage between 3 points and 8 points.
"Trump has a clear advantage in enthusiasm — 70 percent of the president’s supporters say they’re very excited to cast a ballot for him, compared to 50 percent of Biden’s supporters.
"Both Trump and Biden have more than 90 percent support from voters within their own parties, but independents broke for Biden in the poll by 12 points. Biden also has a massive 30-point lead over Trump among women, while Trump’s lead among men is only at 7 points." . . .

Biden Loses Train Of Thought, Corrects Himself Several Times In One Sentence


Trump’s Leadership in Pandemic Paves Way to Reelection

Will decent Democrats finally realize the shame that has shrouded them by the actions of those on public display? That includes, but is not limited to, flag stomping women athletes, obscene TV hosts, showoff Hollywood personalities, propagandist "news" sources with their publicity-hungry reporters and school systems that promote them? Have they not heard of #WalkAway?

Conrad Black
The president has admirably mobilized the natural desire of Americans to rise to a national challenge, part of which is generally a rallying behind the leader, as long as the leader knows how to lead.  


"One of the characteristics of the coronavirus pandemic in the United States is its unique political explosiveness. In order to deal effectively with it, President Trump has had to show a good deal of dexterity, which his always numerous and vocal critics have assailed as incoherence, or insincerity.
. . . 
"At the outset, the president was roasted for being anti-science, for ignoring scientists and experts, epidemiologists, and just winging it on his own intuition. He dealt with that by effectively taking over the public relations part of what is officially Vice President Pence’s task force, and becoming virtually joined at the hip to its two leading and uniformly respected specialists, Drs. Deborah Birx and Anthony Fauci.
"Both have praised the president’s executive decisions and have assured the press that President Trump listens to them and follows their advice.
"The president has done an excellent job of mobilizing the private sector, kicking around companies that he thought were being sluggish (General Motors) or were profiteering abroad at the expense of the safety of Americans (3M), and he invoked the National Emergencies Act and ignored silly tweets from the Democratic hecklers on the sidelines such as Hillary Clinton, and explained the law generally only needed to be referred to for targeted companies to comply; not to be specifically enforced." . . . 

Thank you, Bernie, for forcing us to learn about socialism

Are You Enjoying Your 30 Free Trial of Communism? In keeping with the " national ‘Day of Satire". Hat tip to Exavier Saskagoochie

POLL: Most people unimpressed with their 30-day free trial of Communism


"A poll conducted by the Pew Pew Institute shows that a majority of Americans are unimpressed with their 30-day free trial of Communism.
“ 'It kinda sucks,” 19-year-old San Diegan Britta Fowler said of the trial. “I was expecting all this free stuff, which I guess we’re getting, but I also didn’t expect empty store shelves and house arrest for everyone. It’s really lame!' ” . . .



Liberal Nonsense Is Looking Dumber Than Ever Now

Townhall
Sure, AOC is still nitwiting about it on the interwebs, but is anyone listening to her? She’s gone from center stage, revealed as what she always was – a trivial indulgence who was vaguely amusing in a time of safety and prosperity and who is a bad joke in a time where normal people are literally putting themselves at risk to help fellow Americans. We have no time for her ilk and their sophomore seminar obsessions. We have lives to save and an economy to rebuild.

"Remember the heady days of six weeks ago when the earnest wailing of liberal sissies about some imagined thoughtcrime drew respectful attention? Well, it never did from us, because we always knew these people we idiots deserving only of mockery, but some people – nice, friendly people who could not imagine the malignancy in the hearts of these fascists dipwads – took them seriously and actually cared.
"And then a disease came along that is impoverishing the people it isn’t killing. It’s time to put away childish things, folks, and America seems to be doing that. Well, at least the people who aren’t liberal blue checks. The rest of us have no time for such frivolous nonsense. And when we beat this pandemic, which we will, maybe we as a culture will put away childish things for good.
"Things like promiscuous racism whining. Ah, those were the days, back when blocking off travel into the US from that festering petri dish of disease that is China was RACIST! and probably SEXIST! and certainly a violation of the Logan Act to boot. Yeah, it turns out that keeping out inhabitants of the Land of the Commie Bat Gobblers wasn’t racist – it was prudent." . . .

I'll Have the Bat Soup - Hold the Deadly Virus. (Also titled: I'LL HAVE THE CHICKEN TESTICLE SOUP - HOLD THE DEADLY VIRUS"

Although, it occurs to me that, despite America’s terrible toxic whiteness, one way our culture is superior to others is that we don’t believe lunatic nonsense that wipes out entire species or launches viral pandemics on the world. Now back to Chris Cuomo’s riveting battle with the coronavirus.
Yummy!  What's a wet market?
Ann Coulter  "It’s probably a coincidence, but I notice that as businesses go under, jobs are lost, careers are ended and trillions of dollars are drained from the economy, the people most avidly pushing the coronavirus panic are doing quite well.
"No politician or government official has taken a salary cut. To the contrary, dusty bureaucrats now find the entire country transfixed by their every utterance. Cable news hosts still make millions of dollars -- and now they get to work from home!
"Annoyingly, though, journalists can’t seem to relay the basic elements of a news story: who, what, where and why.
"First, who’s dying? It appears to be mostly the old, people with specific medical conditions and vapers.
"To be sure, that’s not as important as daily updates on Chris Cuomo’s personal battle with the coronavirus, but it might be kind of important to the 17 million Americans who’ve been thrown out of work, many of whom are not elderly, immunocompromised or vapers.
. . . 
"Second, the “what.” What exactly constitutes a “coronavirus death”?

"It turns out a person with Stage 4 lung cancer and a bullet through the heart will be counted as a “coronavirus death” if he also tested positive for the disease, OR merely exhibited symptoms associated with it (symptoms that are coextensive with the flu and pneumonia)."
. . . 
"Notice a pattern? While it’s true that “viruses don’t have nationalities!” -- and thank you very much for pointing that out, media! -- the carriers of viruses do have nationalities." . . .

If Biden is president, WHO will run this nation?

Biden to Trump: Here’s how to act like a president 
Joe has been the model for all presidents, second only to Abraham Lincoln.
NRO is no longer the National Review we knew for years.

Joe Biden Has Been Dropping Hints About his VP Pick
He’s not naming names — though there’s one that keeps popping up — but he has now committed to naming a woman as his running mate 
"Biden himself has dropped more than a few hints about who he’d want on the ticket with him since he entered the presidential race in early 2019. 

"There’s Stacey Abrams of Georgia — a star in the Democratic party who was mentioned as a possible running mate for nearly all of the 2020 candidates. But there are other names on the list, including a pair of senators from the state of New Hampshire and even possibly former Deputy Attorney General and #resistance hero Sally Yates.

"There will be tremendous pressure on Biden to choose a woman as his running mate after half a dozen women competed for the nomination but fell short. “There must be a woman on this ticket,” Cecile Richards, the former head of Planned Parenthood for America and founder of Supermajority, a new political advocacy group, told the New York Times this week. “What is really important to see is representation, a commitment to the issues that women care about and a commitment to do something about it.”


Bernie Sanders Ends Presidential Campaign, Paving the Way for Biden to Become Democratic Nominee

Legal Insurrection  This only leaves Biden. 
Bernie can always primary Biden in four years. Or maybe eight. TD




"Sanders said he will stay on the ballot and continue to collect delegates as a way to keep the pressure on the Democratic Party to accept his radical ideas."
. . . "However, Sanders also congratulated former Vice President Joe Biden because he will become the Democrat nominee. He will support Biden so he can defeat President Donald Trump in November.
"He said, “Together, standing united, we will go forward to beat Donald Trump.”
Sanders touted his connection with the youth, but he forgets that a lot of people change their ideology when they grow up. I used to like Sanders. Then I grew up and had to pay taxes." . . .


BREAKING NEWS: Bernie Sanders DROPS OUT of Democratic 2020 race leaving Joe Biden to go head-to-head with Donald Trump in November - after making voters get in line in Wisconsin

'I wish I could give you better news, but I think you know the truth,' Sanders said Wednesday. He pointed out that he was about 300 delegates behind the former vice president. 'The path toward victory is virtually impossible.'
'I have concluded that this battle for the Democratic nomination will not be successful,' Sanders continued. 'So today I am announcing the suspension of my campaign.'

Hey @ESPN, why did you make @JosinaAnderson remove the cross on the wall behind her? Absolutely pathetic!

. . . "My verdict on this is that it is unclear. ESPN could have called for it to be moved off the set or they could have just moved the angle of the shot. This would not be the first time that a Mainstream outlet tried to censor God.

"The silence of Josina is one of the things that is amazing to me. She could have easily debunked it but decided not to.

How depraved is the 'resistance'? Enough to root for vast death by COVID-19

Patricia McCarthy   "As the therapeutic efficacy of hydroxychloroquine becomes more and more provable, the left gets more and more hysterical.  They have bet the farm on COVID-19 as a means of preventing President Trump’s re-election and then this old malaria drug appears on the scene.  The first trial came from China and no one should take their word for it but a doctor there realized that every patient with lupus, even if sick, was negative for the disease.  Then a French doctor, Dr. Didier Raoult, a world-famous microbiologist, tested the theory with more than a thousand patients and found it 100% effective, especially when combined with zithromax.  More than six thousand doctors around the world are using it to combat the disease with tremendous life-saving results.  Many of those doctors are using the drug as a prophylactic and it is keeping them from getting the virus as they care for sick patients.  Dr. Mehmet Oz has been amassing information about it and explaining it to the public on his television program." . . .

 . . . "America has a long tradition of an adversarial press, beginning in the revolutionary era.  Beyond that, President Lincoln was savaged by his opponents, those who wanted slavery preserved.  But no president in modern times has had to endure the incessant viciousness that Donald Trump has and he has put up with it with more grace than they deserve.  He bites back and often rightfully humiliates them for their perfidy, but they never learn.  They come back the next day and do it all over again.  They fear Trump’s leadership throughout this pandemic so frantically they are rooting for the failure of hydroxychloroquine and so for more deaths.  Christopher Hitchens perhaps had the media in mind when he wrote:  “A sure sign of ineptitude and malice is manifested when one's attacker is willing to cover himself with mud in order to try and make some of it adhere to his target.' ”  Full article
