Did you watch the press conference? They recommend you do it. Then he made it outright known how it is just voluntary and he isn't gonna do it because he doesn't see the need to yadda yadda. He outright undercut and destroyed the CDC recommendation live on stage.


And what effect is that actually going to have on whether or not people wear masks?

No one is looking to him for guidance. They either reject him outright or think hes being manipulated into a leftist agenda

I guess this is the left owning the left though I guess. When they have a ripe angle that everyone in the world would agree was terrible with his mask comments... They pick the ridiculous thing to try for in order to let that go under the radar and have the right just dismiss their criticism as stupid.

Jesus.

The left being Fox News apparently according to Wangs search results

Okay, having thought about it, I will offer this steelman response: Trump says "I've never been involved in a model" - thinks, wait, that makes me sound too stupid,


See I think he thought wait, that makes me sound like a virgin. I must let them know I am a Chad.

maybe, I dunno, he says weirder shit all the time about windmills and toilets. I cant explain whats going through his head, but nothing about his delivery makes it seem like a joke.


Maybe calling it a joke is whats causing the issue.

It really was more like he was just stating it as a matter of fact that he has indeed dated models, in case the sentence fragment before it might have lead you to believe otherwise

Like when guys used to unironically say No homo after complimenting another guy.

the clip isn't doctored at all but it is purposefully cut there to not showcase how absolutely nothing he does changes and he continues talking about the same thing, in the same kind of language, without any shift in tone. it's purposefully done to drive an entirely different narrative.

basically corrik and redsox are right that it's purposefully making outrage out of you. i can get how you'd interpret it the wrong way but that's because what's being presented to you is wrong and the idea is explicitly being put in your head. they ain't gaslighting you as much as trying to tell you that you're being trolled.

see, this is a good example.
when trump is joking, he'll change his mannerism, he smirks, his tone of voice changes, etc. he's done jokes in these conferences too - every day at that - and there's a clear shift that happens.

here nothing changes and he just keeps going, same old.



Okay, what models do you think hes referring to that hes been involved in?

yeah... no, he wasn't making that joke.
i mean personally i wish he was but he pretty clearly wasn't making a reference to banging chicks there, he was just talking normally, no change in expression or mannerism to indicate a joke like he does when he's making one. this one's actually one of those cases where media's making the innuendo he never meant.



Is there actually any media making the innuendo yet?

Not that they wont, but isnt it just people on Twitter?

It is literally how he talks. He says a lot of shit that a normal person wouldn't say or clarify when he speaks all the time. Watch his conference. He does that maybe 4 or 5 times at least through it.

who even is ryan satin and why do we hate him

I don't know Sherriff Joe so this context doesn't help and I vaguely remember something else recently that I don't think I had enough context for either


Satin is a former TMZ guy who started his own wrestling news site called Pro Wrestling Sheet. Last fall he got hired by Fox to work on WWE Backstage.

Most people see this as a conflict of interest, but yet he still maintains that he is fair and balanced about WWE stories. This is why most people that dislike him dislike him.

He got in an argument with Bryan Alvarez yesterday, and he dropped a line at least Im honest about who I work for along with a picture of Bryan and Dave in an AEW ring. This prompted a response from a prominent person in the wrestling twitter circle (WordsBig80s) about how Satin used to work on his dads reality show about notorious awful human being Sheriff Joe Arpaio tricking people with warrants into getting arrested.

I don't think there was ever a chance of us getting through this without a massive percentage (close to 100%) of the population getting it.

The 911 calls I have been responding to have been too numerous to handle. Dead bodies are lying in their apartments for days at a time before the medical examiner has an opportunity to come pick them up. Way, way more people are gonna die.


Are they making you work while infected?? Or is this purely past tense?

Trump keeps talking about working 20+ hours a day and getting no sleep or minimal sleep as a good thing. I wish he would stop doing that. If Mike Pence is really going days without sleeping he's not going to be effective. He's going to be barely functional, like a drunk person.


Vince McMahon has gotten 3-4 hours of sleep a night for 70 years and look at his success

If they can no longer tape shows, they'll change up the show so that someone like Cole or Corey just presents a bunch of matches from the past several years from RAW, SD!, NXT and PPVs while constantly acknowledging that WWE cannot showcase new content while this outbreak is too high risk to tape matches. They may organise some interviews with their top guys.


The weird thing about that is that theyve never actually acknowledged the outbreak or why theyre doing empty arena shows on air

Wrestlemania is just a show that was TOO BIG for one night!

i still don't get why flu deaths should be the gold standard that decides whether or not the government should take action to battle covid.

if there's tons of flu deaths, shouldn't the conclusion be that... maybe flu deaths are a bigger deal than everyone thought?

My point is that society has never really valued human life over freedom until this month. The shelter in place net negative deaths only show you how we risk death literally every time we step outside. Society isn't designed to optimize risk reduction like that, otherwise we'd never let anyone leave the house or drive a car.


Thats why we continue to redesign society to best mitigate those risks
