He lost the popular vote last time but it didn't stop him becoming president.
Banned from twitter? I don't use it so if he has been already, apologies for my dimness
Three years ago I put him on ignore. Fact.
A barely veiled thread from Trump to protestors heading to Tulsa on Saturday. Revealing the angry old man underneath the tangerine veneer. Encouraging brutality from Oklahoma’s police and his right wing disciples.
FORBES - KEY FACTS:
Referencing the protests that broke out in cities across the country in the wake of Floyd’s death, Trump said any protesters "will not be treated like you have been in New York, Seattle or Minneapolis," and promised "a much different scene."
Trump has claimed to be an “ally of all peaceful protesters,” the president has at times conflated non-violent protesters — which make up a majority of demonstrations — with looters and arsonists, at one point warning that "when the looting starts the shooting starts."
During his raucous rallies in 2016, Trump occasionally encouraged violence among protesters and supporters: "If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you?” Trump said during a rally on February 1, 2016, adding that he would “pay the legal fees.”
At a Las Vegas rally later that month, he also said security guards were too gentle with a protester: "He's walking out with big high-fives, smiling, laughing," Trump said. "I'd like to punch him in the face, I'll tell you."

Yes, but as Trump has pointed out, if they stopped testing then the rate would be zero.

So far I can see 2 black people in the entire crowd on that live stream [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] has posted above.
And they happen to have been seated right behind the podium so they appear directly over the speaker's right shoulder in camera shots.

To be fair, sat on camera, is probably the only safe place for them to sit, in that crowd.

I see Farage is making a guest appearance in Tulsa in the not so full BOK arena!

Good to hear the President making jokes about a virus that has killed 120,000 Americans.
He also claimed protesters stopped more people getting into the arena, which isn't true, but I suspect he was told that to soothe his delicate ego.
What I find funniest is that the place was fairly empty - and some of the goofballs had been queuing for a week to get in.

He would have had the national guard out and had them all beaten to a pulp.
I only flit in and out of this thread. Has anyone mentioned the 'suspendthepres' twitter account? Essentially it tweets the exact same thing the President does, and has been suspended twice, while the President's twitter account isn't. https://twitter.com/SuspendThePres

The walk of a man who just had a tiny audience show up in a state he took by a landslide in 2016

His campaign were claiming they'd get 1 million people there and had a live telecast planned to an outside overspill area (that was hastily closed).
In the end, it looked like a Tuesday night away game at Rochdale.
