Did you hear what Donald Trump said at his rally in Arizona on Saturday? He said some over-the-top things! Yet most of you did not hear about it.


Trump made assertions in Arizona Saturday night that might once have garnered buzz (on Sunday morning, at least). But they’re getting little play. In its writeup of the rally, Politico said Trump “issued a blistering response to Democrats” and that he “opened his speech by falsely claiming ‘proof’ that the 2020 election was ‘rigged.’” A more telling fact is that this “blistering response” was not deemed worthy enough to be the site’s lead story. What might have spawned outrage and wagging tongues a few years prior now elicits a collective chorus of yawns.

Trump’s rock-concert rallies provide enough of his greatest hits for the fans and groupies who actually attend them. But for performers to remain relevant, they require new material. And politics is more stand-up comedy than rock and roll.

The Rolling Stones can play their more-current hits a million times, yet we will still keep clamoring for “Sympathy For The Devil.” But can you imagine Chris Rock getting an HBO special and doing 2016 material? The same goes for Trump. Nobody wants to hear a political retread who rehashes his same tired conspiracy theories ad nauseam.


The theme was “Make America Great Again… Again.” Even Trump’s apparel hinted at the likely sequel. He donned a red “Make America Great Again” hat that partially obscured his eyes most of the night, but it wasn’t the iconic version from the 2016 election. He was attempting to have it both ways by playing his “greatest hits” and floating some new material. But does lightning ever really strike twice? For every Godfather II success there are dozens of Ghostbusters II failures.

We’d be fools to count Trump out entirely. If anyone in American lore is capable of a third act, it’s him. But he needs new material, and fast, because if his Arizona rally shows anything, it’s that the old routine just doesn’t land anymore.

Who said, "I'll be back"? Trump the Floridian, Vigo the Carpathian, Vito the Sicilian?

One of the things Trump said at the Airzona rally is that hospitals are treating black people for COVID first and sending white people to the back of the line.

There were a several black people on the stage behind Trump when he said that, and they were all wearing t-shirts that said "Blacks for Trump" in big letters. I'm not kidding.



"The left is now rationing life-saving therapeutics based on race, discriminating against and denigrating, just denigrating white people to determine who lives and who dies," Trump said during his speech. "You get it based on race. In fact, in New York state, if you're white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical help. If you're white, you go right to the back of the line."

You mean the truth?

"New York’s Race-Based Preferential Covid Treatments"

"According to these guidelines, sick people who have tested positive for Covid should be eligible to receive these drugs if they have “a medical condition or other factors that increase their risk for severe illness.” These include standard criteria like age and comorbidities like cancer, diabetes and heart disease—but, startlingly, they also include simply being of “non-white race or Hispanic/Latino ethnicity,” which “should be considered a risk factor, as longstanding systemic health and social inequities have contributed to an increased risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19.”

You do realize... people that care about truth.. and true equality (not equity) are people of all races, creeds, and color... the Left is the Party that focuses solely on race as a determining factor. Which, in effect, makes them racist.

"U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) sent a letter to Dr. Janet Woodcock, Acting Commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), regarding the agency’s recent guidance that race and ethnicity should be a primary factor in determining which patients receive life-saving COVID-19 treatments, such as monoclonal antibodies and oral antiviral drugs."

You really shouldn't be supporting racists ClydeR... some might think you're a racist piece of shit if you do.
