It took 98 days to reach 1 mil. U.S. coronavirus cases; it’s taken 14 days to reach another million. If it hasn’t happened already, someone close to you will die. This election is the pandemic. Period. Please Mr. Pres. don’t say dr.s are rooting for more deaths to make more money
Please, Mr. President, don’t repeal the Affordable Care Act because of your contempt for @BarackObama. Instead, think of the millions it provided protections for, those with pre-existing conditions, people soon on ventilators who need preventive health care services. Please.
And if by chance you do lose to @JoeBiden, I beg of you
@realDonaldTrump to
act more presidential than you’ve ever been, if not for yourself but for a country who has seen much bloodshed while we fight our brothers & sisters out in the streets to prove who’s right, who’s wrong
I've never been accused of plagiarizing, but I feel like I need to call myself out for the last line of the last Tweet. My subconscious stole it. From @eltonofficial and @bernietaupin.

8 people arrested or charged under Trump: Michael Flynn, Michael Cohen, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, George Papadopoulos, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone & George Nader, who was sentenced in June to 10 years for possessing child pornography and bringing a boy to the United States for sex
And then there was the bizarre story of his former campaign manager Brad Parscale, who was hospitalized after barricading himself in his Ft. Lauderdale home with 10 guns in late Sept., his wife calling police worried he would harm himself. local10.com/news/local/202…
No one will approach Richard Nixon's crooked White House -- 76 indictments and 55 convictions over just 5 years and six months in office. And no one will beat Barack Obama's mark for a clean White House -- 0 indictments in eight years.

This a disturbing thread about the only way Donald Trump can win re-election -- really, the only way he won in 2016. It's what happens when a social media collossus like Facebook allows warped people to manufacture well-done videos and front them as "investigative journalism."
Last week a FB friend from high school sent me this, asking how a journalist like me could ever support @KamalaHarris after she "failed to prosecute Planned Parenthood in California for harvesting and trafficking body parts of late-term aborted fetuses." facebook.com/ksjax99/videos…
Instead, the video said, then-prosecutor Harris went after the truth-telling watchdogs who exposed this horror, like @daviddaleiden, who went "undercover," instead of mainstream media lemmings like me, who didn't see this story for what it was? I looked into it. Read many links.

I'm really happy Adam Silver, the commissioner of the NBA, is getting kudos over his ability to keep his players safe. He and everyone who has worked hard not to test positive for Covid in Orlando deserve it. But I am having trouble with this gleeful rejoicing over "The Bubble."
Because, when it comes down to it, that's what it is -- a bubble. It doesn't reflect the real world. It doesn't reflect what's happening in society or, for that matter, mere miles from the area Disney has partnered with the NBA to cordon off from Orlando and Central Florida.
Florida had its worst day for infections this week. Fifty of the 186 people who died Monday because they could no longer breathe were from Central Florida, many not far from the five-star sterilization of the NBA family, of which I'm proud to be a part of -- even peripherally now

True story: Cavs cheerleader came up to me during ‘96 Knicks game. Said, “Are you Mike Wise from The NY Times? OMG, I read everything you write.” I went to talk to her after game and she blew me off. I walked into locker room. Patrick Ewing looked up and smiled: “April Fools.”
This was probably the greatest April Fool’s joke ever played on me. It was perpetrated by @meanbarb and Former Knicks PR director Lori Hamamoto, who got the cheerleader and Ewing to go along with the prank. And I actually thought, “Wow, attractive Cavs cheerleader reads me. Yay!”
As @meanbarb knows, I got her back by convincing her that she needed to be guest on an El Paso radio show, because they give $200 Tower Records gift certificates for guests. After several uncomfortable questions by the hosts, I got on line. Barb: “Do I still get my $200 gift?”
