    He's disgusting. A despicable human being, how this guy got voted into power is a stain on America's history.
    Difficult to see it any other way.

    Trump makes a rambling statement about ‘equal justice’, essentially saying something that is implicit in various levels in the American constitution anyway, and then says this is a great day for George Floyd. Oh my ****ing God. He clearly thinks he’s solved the black lives matter problem and coronavirus all by himself. What a Stable Genius.
    He was rejoicing in a decrease in unemployment figures in the US, however it was only white unemployment he was talking about. Black unemployment rose at the same time.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Did overall employment drop? Is it possible he wasn’t making it another race issue? Genuine question btw, I’ve not heard him talking about it or seen the figures.

    Edit: just seen the quote and I can’t see any reason why race needs to be brought into the unemployment figures unless I’m missing something?

    Quite why he felt the need to bring GF into it though is anyone’s guess

    Disparity in unemployment figures IS a race issue. Especially when Trump has tried to prove his 'I'm not a racist' credentials by using back unemployment figures as a propoganda tool when it suits him.

    Ok, I’ll rephrase it. Was he specifically quoting the unemployment figures in white people which is what the post suggested or was he just talking about overall unemployment over all races?

    I don't know in this instance.

    In the past he has very specifically pointed to relatively low black unemployment figures to prove what a great egalitarian he is. It's fair game to question him on those specifics when he neglects to mention them.

    Not sure if I've missed something but how come the mass gatherings about this - not just in the US but in other countries including the UK - have got the go-ahead? Why not crowds at football or music festivals? The rationale for the demos is all well and good but Covid-19 isn't selective in its spread according to how morally just the gathering might be.

    There are surely, as Nicola Sturgeon suggested, other ways to make their point without selfishly flouting social distancing.
    I totally agree. It's unbelievable that these are going ahead.

    I'm sure the virus will say to itself that it will have the weekend off because these are good guys protesting against racial injustice....

    Unfortunately the police have little choice but to take a lenient approach with this, at least as far as the UK is concerned. It really wouldn't end well if a protest against police brutality ended up with the police being heavy handed.

    Their hands are tied and I just hope that there are no serious repercussions to these gatherings.

    Heid Polis spoke really well at SG briefing yesterday. Despite the nonsense we get at weegie football grounds, very glad at how things are approached in the UK compared to our new best friends over the sea.

    Bolton’s book excerpts are only colouring in what most people knew already but none the less, coming from such a senior figure in government for so long they are absolutely damming.

    Still sure it will all be brushed off as fake news n all that by Trump continuing to agree with his own re-tweets

    I think the stuff about China is much less damning than the Ukraine stuff in terms of legality and nobody who was considering voting for him will care about it either.

    Trump shouldn't have given it the time of day; instead he's publicised it. Badly advised yet again.

    Corona on the increase in USA and Trump wants to have a sell out rally.
    Plus, he tweets a threat to any protesters

    Is this not really a lose/lose situation for Trump?

    He shows people how thick he is, again, by having a huge rally which could put everyone who attends at a greater risk of catching the virus?

    On the other hand some might describe it as a win/win situation...😜

    Poor turn out from the Trump supporters tonight, sure he said a million people would turn up at this event tonight, looks like about a few 1000 have bothered to turn up.

    I think his ultimate Cunning Plan is to test nobody.... that way the spread of infection has been statistically proven to have been stopped dead in it's tracks.

    You can't argue with the logic of that.

    Of course Trump will take the credit for beating the virus all by himself.
