Good gawd! This is so cruel--Trump broadcasting to folks in trouble who can not pay rent that eviction
notices would be on hold--and now we find out they are NOT!
STEPHANOPOULOS: In fact, the president doesnt extend the federal eviction moratorium. I looked at the executive order. It doesnt do that.
KUDLOW: Well, look, thats not entirely true.
STEPHANOPOULOS: It is true. I just read it.

Confronted with the truth that Trumps bogus eviction executive order doesnt actually freeze evictions like Trump said it would Larry Kudlow cant defend it.

So many suffering & dying while the Greedy Old People party whine about 70% of the population & polls.
The Greedy Old People aka GOP need to be tossed into the bin of history.

(14,514 posts)Although, I have said before that if we lift the stone of capitalism and look at the writhing mass underneath, it is usually a bunch of wiggly, wrinkled, liver-spotted, white, male hands grasping for more profits. Because that is what capitalism is.
But don't overgeneralize and put us all in the greed-boat, please.

(3,985 posts)As someone in their mid-70s, I cannot deny that the greed of mostly older white men has possibly destroyed the entire planet.
I grew up in old money WASP land. An alcohol soaked country club of new money wannabes kissing up to the rigid Heartless snobbbery the old money men. 🤢

I know this is from Twitter, but Kudlow goes on to try to explain what MIGHT be available to help prevent evictions. That should have been included in video.

(32,017 posts)His three memoranda dont really do anything, either.
I was worried about a dictatorship. Nope. Trump chose not to seize power and actually do something. Instead, he chose to pretend that he was doing something when, in fact, hes doing nothing.
I suppose this fits his MO. He can say he did something, and, in his world, that counts for actually doing something.

(15,499 posts)Why anyone in their right mind would believe anything "it" says at this point in time is beyond me. We've lost track of how many lies he's told.
Those ignoramuses that really think they're going to get that $400 a month starting right now are going to be duped once again. They deserve it if they are stupid enough to blame a con man.

(3,514 posts)The full tweet (the one with text and an image) is actually a link to the twitter site. For whatever reason some platforms to not convert this link into the image which you and I are seeing, so people using that platform have no idea what the tweet is about, all they see is the link. For that reason people have gotten used to posting both the link and also the relevant text of the tweet, so everybody knows what the post is about.
At least, I think thats whats going on...

(17,778 posts)He might as well have scribbled "All work and no play makes Donnie a dull boy", signed it and said it continues unemployment at current levels and keeps the moratorium on evictions. It doesn't. It can't. That's patently unconstitutional to begin with. Repeat after me, people....this is all a load of bullshit. This is all a load of bullshit.
Scarsdale
(9,426 posts)I read that he had a serious cocaine habit in the past. I think he still does, either that or he is "fading" like tRump into dementia. Has there EVER been a more inept administration? Starting at the top, there is not a single competent member in this crew. Poor old Larry needs to retire, unless he needs the money for his comforts?

(9,426 posts)one willing to go on TV making an ass of himself for tRump. Where is Wilbur Ross these days? Last I saw him, he looked as though he had already been embalmed. He used to be one of the crew who agreed to go on TV.

(21,856 posts)He can't get Congress to work together (it's rump, remember?, he's an idiot) and because rump's chief of staff (Mark Meadows), is highly challenged by ethics ('what are ethics?')), and works with the likes of Gym Jordan and other scumbags in the republican party, nothing of course constructive will get done.
Now Pelosi will have to get the Courts to rule that rump's unilateral actions on his own to construct law 100% by EO, fund by EO, defund by EO, etc., are simply unconstitutional and be ruled immediately as such.
