EA on talkRADIO: Black Lives Matter v. Trump’s Only I Matter

Posted by Scott Lucas | Jun 7, 2020 | 1

In our latest 15-minute Journey Across Trump-Land, I joined talkRADIO’s Alexis Conran and Gloria De Piero on Saturday to review the significance of the Black Lives Matter protesters and Donald Trump’s futile attempts to intimidate them.

We also explain why the Stock Market is rising amid a pandemic, and why Trump’s stock is falling with the US military and with the American public: with his approval rating at its lowest point since early December, will he dare undermine or even try to postpone November’s elections?

Listen from 14:48 in 1830-1900 Segment

Never count out the Trump spectacle and those who will ride with him, come hell and high water.
But his combination of mishandling the pandemic with his aggressive threats, unwilling to engage with all the issues after the killing of George Floyd — equality, justice, discrimination — means he has a much tougher task than three months ago.

Gotta admit, I’m 100% with the protesters defacing scumbag Churchill like this. Shame they couldn’t take it down and toss it in a river. A fitting *spit* on his legacy.
