Apparently the size of the crowd at the WH political rally, (illegal, isn’t it? I thought campaign events are forbidden there), was about 400-500, much smaller than the announced goal of thousands. And Owens evidently paid transportation costs (travel and hotel) to get people to come.

"Astro-turfing," as it's amusingly called is fairly commonplace these days. Usually it happens in the corporate context like the actors paid by Entergy to attend a New Orleans City Council meeting in support of a new power plant.

It's so prolific you have companies like this: https://crowdsondemand.com/

He really, really should've done that!

It would have been funny.

And also very not funny.

Barron had Covid too

I never thought that he looked much like his daddy before but damn if he doesn't in this pic, right down to the facial expression

That face sure looks like a younger version of his father. Wow. Never really noticed it before.

Unfortunate for him...

On another note, who's the oversized William Shatner lookalike?

Sounds like my kids when I catch them in a lie. “Did you clean up your room? I think so. “. Go upstairs and room is a mess.

Wait, all this candor and transparency is weird.

So I heard a doctor on one of the morning shows say something about Trump’s “immunity” that I hadn’t even thought of. He said when you receive the antibody cocktail that Trump got it very well may be that you don’t form your own antibodies, because your immune system doesn’t have to.

This is the exact mechanism for RhIg (RhoGam) which is used to prevent Rh negative women from forming the anti-D that can harm unborn babies. The product is a dose of the anti-D antibody, which coats any fetal cells that may be present in the mom’s bloodstream, therefore her own immune system doesn’t get activated to make her own anti-D. After about 90 days the RhIg leaves her system, and she is free from the harmful antibodies.

So Trump and anybody else who receives the Covid antibody preparations should really not assume they are immune on their own. They should still use masks and social distancing.

Mark Meadows strikes again

They're also saying that Pence will maintain his current campaign schedule..

That plays perfect into diminishing any narrative about Biden/oil tomorrow morning and leading into the final week of the campaign.

 

[superchuck500]

Listen to this stupid butt crevasse.

“We’re rounding the turn, our numbers are incredible despite the fact that they’re keeping certain states (North Carolina) closed. You gotta get your governor to open up the state!”

Mark Meadows strikes again

"Everyone gets dark and the worst part
Is the way those thoughts can please you."

Man, this entire administration sure does love to catch the coronavirus. You really have to applaud their commitment to demonstrating that not taking the most basic precautions will result in spreading disease. I think it is brave for Pence to knowingly and intentionally spread it to crowds of rubes in the home stretch of this disastrous presidency to prove a point we already knew.

Mark Meadows told Jake Tapper “we’re not going to control the virus”. Well, duh. We know. That’s a big reason Trump will hopefully be voted out.

 

[EmBeeFiveOhFour]

Seems bad that the "Chairman of the Coronavirus Task Force" can't stop uncontrolled spread through his staff?

When he says "we" he means "this Administration".
