As predicted right here in early 2018, Trump's trade war with China has caused long-term/perhaps permanent damage to US agriculture. #DimwitDon was too dumb to know, if China couldnt get soybeans etc from us, theyd just set up trade with other countries... rawstory.com/2020/08/trumps…
...and once those trade relationships between China and, say, Brazil were established, it would be very hard for the USA - having proven itself to be both an unreliable and a stupid trade partner - to get back to where we were in 2017.

THIS is what happens when an incompetent...
...becomes president - he blathers on about how simple things are, because he is too stupid to understand them,& too stupid to *know* he is stupid. American farmers got sold-out for Trump's ego. Then again, the whole country is paying that same price with his Covid incompetence.

.@TexasGOP psychopaths - like @GregAbbott_TX @JohnCornyn @SenTedCruz - are *actually* following Trump's instructions to "slow the testing down, please." The testing is rapidly going down while test positivity goes up. Below is graph of recent TX testing numbers.../1 Image
...and here is the long term graph on daily testing. Now, notice how the use of antibody tests has been rapidly going up while other tests have been going down during that same time. That disguises how bad the fall of testing actually is. In other words, its worse than this... Image
...standard diagnostic test - done properly - has low false negative rate. (Some experts say near zero.) Antibody test - done AFTER someone is sick- has high false negative rate. So, by cutting all other tests while increasing antibody makes positivity rate lower than reality...2

I can't overstate how furious I am that @SenatorLoeffler @KLoeffler says college football trying to keep players healthy is "politics." This narcissistic sociopath shows WHY we cant get Covid under control: They think all others should risk death for their personal convenience...
...and entertainment. Yes, @SenatorLoeffler @KLoeffler, we all would like college football playing, just like we would like kids back in school and economies fully open. But *we can't* because you idiots REFUSE, every time, to take the actions needed for those things to...
...happen safely. How many football players' deaths are too many to indulge your love of football, @SenatorLoeffler @KLoeffler? And how many deaths and long-term injury and disability of the people those players infect? And who the ones infected by football players infect?...

Dems are missing the killer political - & real - argument about the mail slowdown. They keep focusing on mail-in ballots. That's 3 months from now; non-political types arent thinking about it now.

But: "Trump is so incompetent, he cant get the frigging MAIL delivered!" THAT...
...should be slammed again and again. Mussolini at least got the trains to run on time; #DimwitDon is so stupid, he doesn't care his postmaster general is too incompetent to get grandma's card delivered on time for her grandson's birthday. And THAT will drive more votes than...
...mail in voting ever would. Imagine @JoeBiden at a debate: "This man cant run a government. Weve seen delivery of our packages and letters slowed down- slower than any time in our lives. That's because of THIS man's policies. The post office delivered mail in the Civil War...
