Propane Jane: Trump is only saying not to politicize the virus because he's getting the blame for how poorly he's handled the virus.

Propane Jane: In the first month or two, they were still saying to give him a chance, but this many months into it, it's clear he's botching the response & doing so arrogantly. He says he won't take responsibility for it--or for anything.

Propane Jane: Republicans at least had a plan for 9/11 & the Iraq War. The plan may not have worked out too well but at least they had a plan & Bush pretended to take it seriously.

Propane Jane: Biden will be picking a woman for VP, and she may have a chance to become President, & they're saying that's emasculating, yet Pence is submissive to Trump & he's not being called emasculated.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: The sociopathic behavior Trump has shown as President doesn't even begin to touch what he's shown as just Trump.

Propane Jane: The GOP doesn't know how to run a gov't properly, and they don't want to know how to. They just want to obstruct.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: Even though 2008 was a huge crisis, this is a way bigger crisis now. The detriment that will have been done by the time the new gov't takes over, there will be fallout for years & years to come. We'll have to shore up healthcare, for example.
@docrocktex26

Propane Jane: The gamble the GOP is making is that enough of their voters won't die or get severely ill by November. It's a gamble b/c while you let it fester, you don't know at what point it becomes a breaking point.

Propane Jane: When the schools reopen, what will it look like in communities that have claimed the virus is a hoax, yet a teacher dies, or a student, or a student's parent dies?
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: We don't have immunity, we don't have a vaccine, and we haven't slowed down the transmission of the virus.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: In Trump's world, he'll always make room for a delusion that makes him look better.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: The "tell" will be told in the obituaries, in the morgues, in the cemeteries, in the hospitals. Rick, you tweeted out that obit a couple of weeks ago from that family in TX.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: Trump knows when it comes out in the wash, there will be blood on his hands.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: Our votes are not protected. All the GOP has done since 2016 is allow our system to be vulnerable, both to GOP manipulation & to manipulation from other countries.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: There's a dark horse possibility that a lot of the voters Trump thinks are in his corner will defect.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: We had new voting machines this summer with a paper printout that we put into a locked box after voting. These were the most secure machines I've used in some time.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: The unrest is not going to calm down. No justice, no peace. In a situation with the pandemic, people out of work, police brutality is percolating right along, violence is going to go up. This is the civil unrest we're seeing going on around the world
@docrocktex26

Propane Jane: I think Biden's not agitating the situation helps immensely. Everyone in Trump's admin is an idiot, a lackey. They're there b/c they paid Trump a favor or were put there by a foreign adversary.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: Diversity in the Biden admin will be key, including women, immigrants. Put people in charge who understand the situations, what's going on.
@docrocktex26 #InstabilityInChief

Propane Jane: We need the police, but I think they should be used more carefully. I think we should reappropriate some of the police funding. We can't get caught up in a sound-bite culture.
