Trump Voter Not Talking To Democrats Cause They Have The Virus

Gary, who says he is from Indiana, plans to attend at least one more Trump rally. He went to one last year when we had no coronavirus broadly spreading.


So you are not taking any precautions, like wearing a mask?
-No, I don't need to do any of that shit. I'm not talking to Democrats, though.
What do they look like?
-Some of them might look like me, but you know, most of them you can figure out. Them minorities.
So you are not talking to anyone who is not white.
-No, that's for sure.
I could be a Democrat.
-You probably are. Done any looting and arson lately?
No.
-Well, them Democrats were marching in the streets by the thousands and looting and damaging public property. They are all infected.
But your friends are not?
-Not they aren't. I know these people. If there are some that don't feel so well, we have people with masks who can take care of them. Kind of separate them. Go cough over there, we have a bench for you.
You are not afraid of indoor events? That's where the virus spreads.
-No. If they are not coughing, they are fine.
But we've shown that there are plenty of people without symptoms spreading the virus.
-That's bullshit. I believe Trump and Pence.
What do they say?
-That we should go on with our lives. I have a job to do.
What do you do, Gary?
-Lawn care. We also put out sod in housing developments.
And what if you get sick? Who will do your lawncare business?
-I got some other contractors that can take over for a week.
You can survive coronavirus in a week?
-I'm healthy and strong. I'll be mowing a week later. You just have to stand on the mower.
You won't infect your customers?
-Yeah, that might be tough. I suppose I could wear a bandana over my face. But I don't need to see them, it's a regular weekly billing. I'll try to mow on weekdays when they are out.

We'll leave him at that then. I forgot to ask him if he was going to get tested if he got symptoms. He was probably just going to tough it out.

Trump, and more so Pence, have reluctantly given the OK for people to wear a mask. It remains to be seen if rally goers will make fun of those wearing a mask. "It could not hurt you to wear a mask,"seems to be the developing trend.

Trump: If you elect Biden, you will all pay the $1200 Stimulus back

President Trump is serious. "If you elect this man as president in November, I am still your president till the end of the year. I won't bother to show up in January. But I have plenty of time to act.You will have to pay the 1200 dollar stimulus back. In fact I have signed the executive order already."


Trump has signed an executive order that says that if Joe Biden is declared the winner of the November election, all those who received the $1200 check will have to pay it back. That much is certain. Now, it may take a while to count and recount the votes, and throw out all the mail-in ballots that look like they might have been printed abroad by George Soros and shipped to battleground states to pad the Democratic vote.

Trump does have some good news for taxpayers, though. "If Biden does not win, you get to keep the $1200 and I will get you another $1200 by Christmas. It will only be good if the vote is tallied and the results sealed by December first. So call you congressman and senator, and have them hurry up the counting in their states." The congresspeople do not actually have this power, so you may want to contact your governor instead.


The legal analysts at CNN and MSNBC are still working on how this sort of shake down on voters by a president is against the constitution. It never came up before.

Inexperienced Garbage Collector Too Interested In Garbage





Indianapolis, IN – Robert Johnson and Luther Allison were assigned as a team on garbage truck for Waste Containment Inc. Robert was a 20-year veteran of the garbage collection industry, and preferred not to talk much. Luther had signed up a few weeks back, but everybody knew he was going to community college in September. Robert had sized up Luther the very first week, when Luther asked questions about all trash that was not in a can or bag. "What do think them white folks made this for?" was his usual question. Robert looked at the pile of pressure treated lumber with nails in it. He knew that outside stuff like that was either for kids’ amusement or something to do with a yard or garden. He had seen every possible attempt at home made projects by these suburban guys. "Beats me, but watch out for them nails," he said to Luther.

"This must have been some kind of kids’ playhouse," Luther said at the next house, holding a piece of wood with a colorful cloth attached. "Wonder if these Nintendo controllers still work" he asked at the next, but the wires were obviously in bad shape at the plug end. "Hey, there is a box of CDs here. But they are all relaxation CDs. You want these." The answer was blunt. " No Luther, I never bring home trash, only money if I find it in the trash. Once I found a 20 dollar bill right on top."

On the positive side, Robert got to drive the truck and never had to get out, as Luther was looking for "useful stuff" as he worked at the back, bringing the cans to the claw to pick up.

Trump Makes West Point Graduates Recite Oath of Loyalty to Trump

"What has historically made America unique,is the durability of institutions against the passions and prejudices of the moment...." were the words that started the speech written for Trump to read to West Point graduates. He was probably referring to the presidency and the executive branch. Of course, if you get to name judges, that institution also becomes useful to you. But the point on institutions was part of his current campaign of Law and Order. Law and Order even trumps constitutional freedoms in Trump's mind.



Toward the end, when all the cadets had been mentioned and made to salute and interact, it seemed like it was over. But Trump had one final request.

"You know I love this country, This is why I want to make it great again. But the world is full of never-trumpers as well. They get a lot of press in the fake media. I would like you to make an oath to me that will be binding at least until a different president is sworn in." The oath was delivered by Judge Jeanine Pirro.

The oath asked the cadets to say that I (state your name) "solemnly swear to be loyal to President Donald Trump. I will never say anything derogatory in private or public, never insult him, and always keep the security and honor of Trump and the White House in mind during my service."

The punishment for straying from the Trump oath will be immediate dismissal from the armed forces and the scholarships the cadets received will have to be paid back in a five year program, similar to student loan payment plans. They do not want to ruin a young person's life, so records of these dismissals will be marked as "general" and not "dishonorable."

Trump has authorized Bill Barr to look into all the cell phone texting of any cadet accused of disloyalty. They did it with Lisa Page, this should be easy.

As the cadets were leaving, two were heard chatting when they passed a reporter, who would not describe them in any way. One said to the other: "I got the impression we were going to hear President Trump speak, but that last bit just turned him into a creepy uncle."

Wife Buys Creamy Oatmeal Again


Manhattan, KS -- Hank Beeler, 65, looked into the cabinet. There was one packet of maple syrup flavor, then a whole box of creamy, some peach or such, flavor. "Not creamy! Now I will just have to mix it with the one packet of regular." He has pointed out to Mary that even the variety pack is good, though he has to spread the regular flavor with the rest. Regular has no flavor. The store brand low sugar is OK too, it has no man made sweeteners, just lower sugar.

"What do I do with this box now? I can't give it away, since I took one packet and used it?" After reading the paper Hank planned to go to the store and buy five boxes."I'll just move Mary's assorted granola cereal boxes on the bottom shelf to make room."

Kids Study African American Life with George Floyd Story


Parents at Towson Middle School in the greater Baltimore area, working with English teacher Patricia from their school, which has no summer session, have created a spiral bound biography of George Flynn. The parents have been allowed to use the school cafeteria for their George Floyd sessions with the kids.



“There’s everything you need to know about a black man’s life in this story. Well, George was never going to be a stockbroker or a scientist. But there are other aspects of a black man’s life we can focus on. He can be a shining example as well as a horrible warning. He had turned his life around until this coronavirus took all his income as a bouncer.”

Boys will be able to focus on the things they can do, such as walking around and some light horsing around. But never run through your neighborhood while black. That just leaves basketball for the more active kids, and they do have a skate park in the district.

Group member Mario, 12, asks whether he can look at butterflies with binoculars. That is not a smart idea, so he will just have to sit in the meadow he found and draw the butterflies. In fact, black boys should not be carrying any black object, whether phone or binocular, as it looks like a gun. Phones should have pink covers just at the ones of the girls have. Or at least white.


Group member Jimmy asked about parkour. No, no jumping over fences and climbing up walls.

The book follows George from the freshman year at school onward. George attended Jack Yates high school in the Houston area and played football and basketball. Coach Walker says he was a well-behaved athlete.

George’s daughter had to see him killed on TV and his three-year old granddaughter never met him. Family relationships in black communities will be discussed. George as a truck driver will be presented as a role model.

George served five years for an armed robbery, so the spiral bound book will have a short chapter on what it is like to be in prison as a black man.

The African American teens in the group can now look at life as an opportunity, just like George did. At least until your turn 40 and none of those dreams work out. From that point on they will be living paycheck to paycheck just like George did.
