Anonymous said...: Fred Lapides,

The rally was a success. Given that there is a pandemic and an insurgency the numbers are good.

The rally shows that Trump can also stand on his feet for 2 or 3 hours and talk. This is something that woman fondler and little girl hair sniffer Democrat candidate cannot do.

There will be 3 debates. Trump has the stamina for them. Does Biden?; June 22, 2020 at 7:56 AM

Inside the campaign, advisers believe disappointing attendance at the rally shows genuine fear of the coronavirus and the reality of President Trump’s sliding poll numbers.; June 22, 2020 at 12:00 PM

This president’s fragile ego is of primary concern to his advisers. The New Republic’s Walter Shapiro points out “the desperate absurdity” of launching his reelection campaign by “sending the president to a state that has been safely in Republican hands since 1964.”

As Shapiro explains: “It’s not just that they’re sending him on useless trips to Oklahoma so that he can bask in the adulation of his faithful. The campaign is also advertising heavily on Washington cable television, so that Trump can revel in the commercials even though there are no swing states within the D.C. media market.”

Mainstream media will dutifully cover Trump’s hate-filled campaign rallies.; June 22, 2020 at 12:01 PM

There was the time he paid off a porn star. There was the time he lied about the size of his inauguration crowd. The time he talked about the big water around Puerto Rico. The time he thought you could kill the coronavirus by injecting yourself with bleach.

But nothing truly comes close to the embarrassment of his so-called comeback rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday.

It was so toe-curlingly cringeworthy, such a crushing humiliation. There are 80s pop bands who have enjoyed greater comebacks than Donald Trump.

To understand how much of his insides will always melt at the thought of that Tulsa rally, it’s worth quoting Trump’s fine words just before he boarded Marine One at the White House.

“The event in Oklahoma is unbelievable,” he boasted. “The crowds are unbelievable. They haven’t seen anything like it.; June 22, 2020 at 1:57 PM

But in the midst of the pandemic, the newspaper faces an unprecedented threat all its own: In February, the Trump administration proposed eliminating all of the publication’s federal support in 2021. That’s more than $15 million a year, about half its budget. “I can’t think of a graver threat to its independence,” the paper’s ombudsman, Ernie Gates, told me recently. “That’s a fatal cut.”

Defense Secretary Mark Esper justifies the cut by saying the publication’s money should be spent on “higher-priority issues,” including space and nuclear programs. But considering that Stars and Stripes represents a minuscule fraction of the department’s $705 billion budget — “decimal dust,” as editorial director Terry Leonard puts it — critics see the proposal as consistent with the president’s broader war on journalism. “It’s another obnoxious assault by the Trump administration on freedom of the press,” says Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.), a Marine veteran and member of the House Armed Services Committee, who blasts the defunding plan as “un-American.”; June 22, 2020 at 2:01 PM

Neither one of those things are true now.

The Stars and Stripes was to have a periodical that catered to them. Now there are so many that do. So the original need no longer there. Many units have their own newspapers. So again there is no need.

Also there is a need to cut the budget. Either the budget gets cut or the US loses its reserve status. I know the moron art 2:01 does not believe it, but the 201 moron has very few skills.; June 22, 2020 at 2:50 PM
