Truly spectacular spin/save attempt by the Surgeon General: He tells Trump that bodies like theirs make insulin -- "so yes, we do utilize insulin, but we make it ourselves" -- but people with diabetes need exogenous insulin. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Asked if he's seen the distressed letter from the widower of Lori Klausutis about Trump turning her death into fodder, Trump says "yeah I have," then continues propagating his conspiracy nonsense, then says, "As you know, there's no statute of limitations." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Asked if there's any medical reason somebody who doesn't have diabetes would take insulin, Trump says, "I could ask that question to - anybody like to discuss that?...Do you know the answer?" The president is asking various senior officials if they want to deal with his nonsense. — PolitiTweet.org

After telling a reporter he wasn't criticizing Biden for wearing mask ("why would I ever do a thing like that?") Trump asks the reporter to take off a mask for the 2nd question. The reporter says he'll just speak louder. Trump says, "OK, good, you want to be politically correct." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Asked if he was meaning to criticize Biden for wearing a mask with his tweet about this, Trump says he wasn't, but Biden was "outside, with his wife, perfect conditions," and Biden doesn't wear a mask at home inside, so it was "very unusual that he had one on." ? — PolitiTweet.org

Asked what he plans to do in terms of sanctions against China re Hong Kong, Trump says, "Your question's early. We're doing it now. We're doing something now. I think you'll find it very interesting. But I won't be talking about it today." He says he will in the next couple days. — PolitiTweet.org

Since late last month, the president has mused about whether people could inject disinfectant as a coronavirus treatment, claimed to be taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventative measure for the coronavirus, and wondered aloud whether he should be taking insulin. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump touts a health-price transparency measure that'll be "here by the 1st of the year," then adds, "So I hope you're gonna remember me just in case the unthinkable happens." That's his first reference in a while to the possibility of him losing. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump lies that "we'll always protect you on pre-existing conditions, much more so than the Democrats." Democrats got these protections created, in Obamacare, and have fought to save them; Trump and Republicans have tried/are trying to weaken them/entirely eliminate the law. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump says that "when we got rid of the individual mandate, essentially we got rid of Obamacare, if you want to know the truth. You can say that in the truest form." You cannot say that truthfully. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump has also pre-criticized the media for not reporting on this announcement ("The press won't even cover it") and bashed Joe Biden ("Sleepy Joe can't do this"). — PolitiTweet.org

Other Trump comments on insulin in this speech: "Insulin. So many people. So necessary." "You know, if you don't take insulin - I just wrote this down - go blind, stroke, amputation, kidney failure, and other things." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, announcing a cut to out-of-pocket insulin costs for people enrolled in Medicare, says, "I don't use insulin. Should I be? Huh? I never thought about it." — PolitiTweet.org

I will spare you a live-tweet, but trust that Kayleigh McEnany is definitely saying things. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Asked what is the administration's message to the Chinese govt. re Hong Kong, McEnany says she directly asked the president and "he said to me that he's displeased with China's efforts and that it's hard to see how Hong Kong can remain a financial hub if China takes over." — PolitiTweet.org

If you're curious about the status of Trump's wall, here's the latest official update from the government to @priscialva. 194 miles of border barrier have been constructed since January 2017, 3 miles of which have been erected in places where no barrier had existed. https://t.co/iCuvlMRz8j — PolitiTweet.org

This is only the latest in a series of egregious Trump false claims about Pennsylvania Rep. Conor Lamb. (One of them, in 2018, was that Lamb had said “I love” the Trump tax cuts Lamb actually campaigned against.) https://t.co/GEOOZOwJnp — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump has deleted the tweet in which he misspelled Rep. Conor Lamb’s name and falsely claimed Lamb voted for Pelosi as speaker... ...and has posted a new tweet correcting the “Connor Lamm” but repeating the false claim. https://t.co/GEOOZOwJnp — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has repeatedly lied that illegal immigrants are voting en masse in CA. Now falsely saying CA is sending ballots to "anyone living in the state, no matter who they are or how they got there." Sure doesn't seem like accidentally loose language. https://t.co/qYmjNH7QxR — PolitiTweet.org

The president keeps escalating his false claims about mail in voting. What evidence is there that “mail boxes will… https://t.co/JZzCXFHDgb

Here’s Trump’s public schedule for tomorrow. (Public schedules don’t include all of a president’s activities.) https://t.co/vhw9U4bLPJ — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump tried to deflect criticism by doing more Obama-bashing: “Barack was always playing golf.” Trump — who’d promised he‘d work too hard as president to golf — has spent way more time at golf clubs than Obama had at the same point. Some numbers: https://t.co/JWy1FAqFva — PolitiTweet.org

@ColemanLamb (I'm just wondering if you or Conor want to comment beyond his tweets.) — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@ColemanLamb I actually just came to your Twitter to try to find a contact for you, and found you tweeting at me. Could you follow for a quick message? — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
In addition to a) misspelling Conor b) misspelling Lamb c) going after a veteran on Memorial Day as an "American fraud," the president d) falsely claimed Lamb voted for Pelosi as speaker. Lamb kept his promise not to do so, voting instead for Joe Kennedy. https://t.co/bkPgN87DIc — PolitiTweet.org

@edfischman @BenjySarlin Interesting. Good to know. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@BenjySarlin I’d like them to go the other way and let us hear the squeaks and guys calling out pick and roll coverages. I think it’d be weird but very cool and better than canned noise — PolitiTweet.org
