Man where are all these peoples concerns about the death rate associated with the common flu? Yeah sadly a lot of people have died from COVID. That is because it is brand new. Our health care professionals didn’t know how to treat it. At this point they are getting it figured out. That is why the death toll is dropping. COVID will never be gone and people will continue to die from it just like people die from the FLU. Another news flash people get the FLU vaccine and still die from the FLU. So it will be the same for COVID.
If just 5 Democrat governors had kept Covid patients out of Nursing Homes, covid-19 would have killed less people than the 3 month 2018 flu season.
Keep showing yr DUM DIMOCRATness.
But America knows we are all in this mess because of 5 negligent Democrat governors.
and a large study now shows that early treatment with hydroxychloroquine cuts the death rate in half. Imagine if the left-wing media and partisan politicians hadn't played politics with that.
But America knows we are all in this mess because of 5 negligent Democrat governors.
Strange. A lot of Americans think we're in this mess because of a dumb, negligent, self-centered President. And polling shows that most of them trust their governors far more than they trust ole Stable Genius.
A tragic injury from military service doesn’t exempt you from criticism for the choices you make and rhetoric you speak In a political career you sought out.
You can be more (or less) than your injury, trust me!
if an honest history of covid-19 and our (over) reaction to it is written, we'll admit that liberalism accompanied by TDS was worse than covid by several orders of magnitude.
that's nice, alky. related and mutated strains DID exist, and chloroquine DID prove effective in treating not only that, but other diseases like malaria and HIV.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an emerging disease that was first reported in Guangdong Province, China, in late 2002. The disease rapidly spread to at least 30 countries within months of its first appearance, and concerted worldwide efforts led to the identification of the etiological agent as SARS coronavirus(SARS-CoV), a novel member of the family Coronaviridae [1]. Complete genome sequencing of SARS-CoV [2,3] confirmed that this pathogen is not closely related to any of the previously established coronavirus groups. Budding of the SARS-CoV occurs in the Golgi apparatus [4] and results in the incorporation of the envelope spike glycoprotein into the virion. The spike glycoprotein is a type I membrane protein that facilitates viral attachment to the cellular receptor and initiation of infection, and angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) has been identified as a functional cellular receptor of SARS-CoV [5]. We have recently shown that the processing of the spike protein was effected by furin-like convertases and that inhibition of this cleavage by a specific inhibitor abrogated cytopathicity and significantly reduced the virus titer of SARS-CoV [6].
Due to the severity of SARS-CoV infection, the potential for rapid spread of the disease, and the absence of proven effective and safe in vivo inhibitors of the virus, it is important to identify drugs that can effectively be used to treat or prevent potential SARS-CoV infections. Many novel therapeutic approaches have been evaluated in laboratory studies of SARS-CoV: notable among these approaches are those using siRNA [7], passive antibody transfer [8], DNA vaccination [9], vaccinia or parainfluenza virus expressing the spike protein [10,11], interferons [12,13], and monoclonal antibody to the S1-subunit of the spike glycoprotein that blocks receptor binding [14]. In this report, we describe the identification of chloroquine as an effective pre- and post-infection antiviral agent for SARS-CoV. Chloroquine, a 9-aminoquinoline that was identified in 1934, is a weak base that increases the pH of acidic vesicles. When added extracellularly, the non-protonated portion of chloroquine enters the cell, where it becomes protonated and concentrated in acidic, low-pH organelles, such as endosomes, Golgi vesicles, and lysosomes. Chloroquine can affect virus infection in many ways, and the antiviral effect depends in part on the extent to which the virus utilizes endosomes for entry. Chloroquine has been widely used to treat human diseases, such as malaria, amoebiosis, HIV, and autoimmune diseases, without significant detrimental side effects [15]. Together with data presented here, showing virus inhibition in cell culture by chloroquine doses compatible with patient treatment, these features suggest that further evaluation of chloroquine in animal models of SARS-CoV infection would be warranted as we progress toward finding effective antivirals for prevention or treatment of the disease.

Lindsey Graham Challenger Racks Up A Record Haul in SC Election for Senate
The Supreme Court’s ruling forces us to face the fact that there is no remaining rationale for the Electoral College. What remains is a system that serves no purpose other than to erase the votes of 100 million Americans every four years, making them bystanders to the most consequential election of all.
Justice Kagan ended her opinion by invoking the Constitution’s preamble: “here, We the People rule.” Except that we don’t always.
A more accurate formulation would be, “We the People of the Battleground States rule.” And that, alas, is a problem that the Supreme Court can’t solve.
Very appropriate Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has tested positive for the coronavirus after spending months flouting public health guidelines and dismissing the threat posed by a pandemic that has killed more than half a million people worldwide.
The so-called Southern strategy — appealing to white voters by focusing on racial issues — has worked very well for the Republican Party. It has helped the party persuade many frustrated white working-class voters that the Democratic Party doesn’t care about them. Richard Nixon’s campaign invented the strategy, and he won the presidency twice. Ronald Reagan praised “states’ rights” in a tiny Mississippi county known for a Ku Klux Klan triple murder. George H.W. Bush ran the notorious Willie Horton advertisement. The Southern strategy has been “the most successful strategy in the history of modern politics,” Cornell Belcher, a Democratic strategist, told me.
The basic bet has been that Republicans win when voters focus on race. Steve Bannon, who helped run President Trump’s campaign, described the flip side of the idea, in 2017: “The Democrats,” Bannon said, “I want them to talk about racism every day.”
Sure enough, Trump has put race at the center of his re-election message. He did so in two aggressive speeches over the weekend and defended the Confederate flag yesterday. “Almost every day in the last two weeks, Mr. Trump has sought to stoke white fear and resentment,” Maggie Haberman writes. (She’s also on today’s episode of The Daily.)
And yet this time seems different: The strategy isn’t working. Trump’s poll numbers are slumping, and some of his 2016 supporters cite racial issues as a reason they plan to vote for Joe Biden.
Why is the Southern strategy suddenly flailing? I count four main reasons:
The country is changing. It becomes more racially diverse each year. And most Americans under age 35 are quite liberal. The horror of the George Floyd video and the ensuing protest movement have also changed the minds of many Americans. People are afraid. Historically, many white Americans didn’t see how racism hurt them, Belcher said. But he now hears white voters in focus groups say they’re worried that the country is coming apart. “They talk about, if we continue on this trajectory, it’s going to be dismal for our kids,” he said. Trump has gone too far. Most white Americans remain moderate to conservative on immigration, affirmative action and more. But many also believe police departments are biased, and many don’t like symbols of slavery. Reagan offered an optimistic, patriotic message that let many voters downplay or overlook his racial appeals. Trump is practically forcing voters to take sides on racism, Terrance Woodbury, another Democratic strategist, told CNN’s Ron Brownstein. Voters are simply too unhappy with Trump’s handling of the coronavirus. “As long as that’s true,” The Times’s Nate Cohn told me, “I don’t see how he has the freedom to employ wedge issues.” Of course, the usual caveat applies: The campaign still has four months left.
James said... Somebody tap F'n on the shoulder and explain to him that when Goddard quotes Axios for example, the source really is Axios.
That seems beyond F'n's comprehension
Somebody tap the POS "pastor" on the shoulder and explain to him that when Goddard quotes Axios for example, the source really is Axios but EVERYTHING NOT IN QUOTES is Goddard and needs to be attributed (including his original "headlines") else it is plagiarism.

That seems beyond the POS "pastor's" comprehension
On Monday, information regarding recipients of at least $150,000 in loans through the Paycheck Protection Program was released. Among the recipients are a number of Trump administration-affiliated businesses, including the family business of Transportation Sec. Elaine Chao, which Newsweek reports is run by her father and sister, and a trucking company co-founded by Agriculture Sec. Sonny Perdue. Several companies and businesses with ties to the family of Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and a White House adviser, also received loans through the program: The New York Observer, a news site owned by Kushner’s brother-in-law’s investment firm, received up to $1 million in aid; a Hebrew academy in New Jersey that bears Joseph Kushner’s name and is supported by the family was approved for up to $2 million in loans. Yeezy, Kanye West’s fashion line, also received between $2 million and $5 million through the Paycheck Protection Program, claiming that it helped save his company’s 106 jobs. A Newsweek analysis found at least 6 companies with ties to members of Congress applied for millions in loans through the program, including businesses with direct ties to Reps. Roger Williams (R-TX), Mike Kelly (R-PA), Rick Allen (R-GA), Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), Kevin Hern (R-OK), and Devin Nunes (R-CA). All of the representatives listed above voted against a bill to require the disclosure of recipients of loans in excess of $2 million. Initially, Treasury Sec. Steven Mnuchin implied that the names of recipients would not be released to the public. That decision was met with outrage from Democrats, who pressured for more transparency and accountability. Eventually, the Small Business Administration and the Treasury Department agreed to release the names of recipients who received more than $150,000, though exact dollar amounts are still not public information.
Trump, Narcissist Ms. Trump, a clinical psychologist, asserts that her uncle has all nine clinical criteria for being a narcissist. And yet, she notes, even that label does not capture the full array of the president’s psychological troubles.
“The fact is,” she writes, “Donald’s pathologies are so complex and his behaviors so often inexplicable that coming up with an accurate and comprehensive diagnosis would require a full battery of psychological and neurophysical tests that he’ll never sit for.”
At another point she says: “Donald has been institutionalized for most of his adult life, so there is no way to know how he would thrive, or even survive, on his own in the real world.”
Like other critics of the president, Ms. Trump takes issue in the book with the notion that Mr. Trump is a strategic thinker who operates according to specific agendas or organizing principles.
“He doesn’t,” she writes. “Donald’s ego has been and is a fragile and inadequate barrier between him and the real world, which, thanks to his father’s money and power, he never had to negotiate by himself.”
Imagine Tucker Carlson calling someone else “silly” and an “unimpressive person.” Now imagine that person is Tammy Duckworth who left her legs in Iraq. Now imagine that he said she “hates America.” Let’s make the Republicans pay this year. Let’s take it all.
Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations committee, told CNN that the Trump administration has informed Congress that the president has officially pulled the United States out of the World Health Organization during the middle of a global pandemic.

i took the same test as the alky and mysteriously i too scored as qualified for the navy nuclear program.
as did most every kid in my 11th grade catholic school class.
not 5 years out of vietnam the military was hurting big time for recruits, so they sent a bunch of recruiters out to local public and private schools to proctor an exam that was so fucking easy we all crushed it and a room temp IQ could've passed the fucking thing.
i only knew of one kid in the entire school who entered the military upon graduation - a senior a year ahead of me who went to annapolis.
the exam that the alky occasionally brags about was a clever sales pitch made to make imbeciles like him think they were smart so as to lure them in.
nuclear program. heh. more like scrubbing pots and pans on a heavy cruiser somewhere out at sea.
TRUMP'S PARANOIA TAKES ANOTHER UPTICK AS Lindsey Graham Distances Himself from Trump
“Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has publicly opposed President Trump five times in the past few weeks — including a new rebuke Monday — an unusual torrent of dissent from one of the president’s top allies in Washington just months before the South Carolina Republican faces a tough reelection challenge,” the Columbia State reports. ___ David Wasserman: “When even Lindsey Graham starts repudiating Trump, you know it’s… oh wait, he just made it through his primary and was willing to say anything to survive all along because he doesn’t have a life outside of being a senator. This isn’t hard, folks.” ___ YOU MEAN -- LINDSEY KNOWS HE CAN'T BE SENATOR AGAIN UNLESS HE DISSES DONALD?
A tell-all book by President Trump’s niece describes a family riven by a series of traumas, exacerbated by a daunting patriarch who “destroyed” Donald Trump by short-circuiting his “ability to develop and experience the entire spectrum of human emotion,” according to a copy of the forthcoming memoir obtained by the Washington Post.
Rick Hasen: “Like the John Bolton book, the early leaking of the book essentially moots further attempts at prior restraint to stop publication.” ________ Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man by Mary L. Trump, Ph.D.
MARY TRUMP: “Honest work was never demanded of him, and no matter how badly he failed, he was rewarded in ways that are almost unfathomable. He continues to be protected from his own disasters in the White House. But now the stakes are far higher than they’ve ever been before; they are literally life and death. Unlike any previous time in his life, Donald’s failings cannot be hidden or ignored because they threaten us all.” _____
How Mary Trump Leaked Family Tax Documents
Mary Trump tells the story in her new tell-all of how she secretly gave the New York Times much of the source material for its 14,000 word investigation of how President Trump participated in dubious tax schemes, according to Axios.
MS.TRUMP: "At 3:00, I drove to the loading dock beneath the building, and nineteen boxes were loaded into the back of the borrowed truck I was driving since I couldn’t work the clutch in my own car.
"It was just beginning to get dark when I pulled into my driveway. The three reporters were waiting for me in David’s white SUV, which sported a pair of reindeer antlers and a huge red nose wired to the grill.
"When I showed them the boxes, there were hugs all around. It was the happiest I’d felt in months." _____
‘Cheating as a Way of Life’ The New York Times says Mary's book "depicts a multigenerational saga of greed, betrayal and internecine tension and seeks to explain how President Trump’s position in one of New York’s wealthiest and most infamous real-estate empires helped him acquire what Ms. Trump has referred to as ‘twisted behaviors’ — attributes like seeing other people in ‘monetary terms’ and practicing ‘cheating as a way of life.'”
Among the highlights: Trump paid someone to take the SAT on his behalf which he used to later gain admittance as an undergraduate to the University of Pennsylvania’s prestigious Wharton business school.
Also stunning: “Ms. Trump, a clinical psychologist, asserts that her uncle has all nine clinical criteria for being a narcissist. And yet, she notes, even that label does not capture the full array of the president’s psychological troubles.”
Writes Mary Trump: “The fact is, Donald’s pathologies are so complex and his behaviors so often inexplicable that coming up with an accurate and comprehensive diagnosis would require a full battery of psychological and neurophysical tests that he’ll never sit for.”
Mary Trump tells the story in her new tell-all of how she secretly gave the New York Times much of the source material for its 14,000 word investigation of how President Trump participated in dubious tax schemes, according to Axios.
so she's a criminal and proud of it.

I see the lying plagiarizing POS "pastor" still hasn't learned that he is plagiarizing. See this is NOT in quotes.
I guess F'n never heard of indirect quote, such as "she tells the story" etc.
Most stupid of all is the fact that F'n still can't get it through his dense head that I would have to put MY OWN NAME on someone else's words to be guilty of "plagiarism." _____________ Plagiarism: The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.
James said... (guess that's not his own name...but anyway...)
All of the following are considered plagiarism:
turning in someone else's work as your own
copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit
copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not (see our section on "fair use" rules)
In the book, Mary Trump writes that current challenges have weakened the president's usual tools for shielding himself from blame.
“His ability to control unfavorable situations by lying, spinning, and obfuscating has diminished to the point of impotence in the midst of the tragedies we are currently facing,” she said.
“His egregious and arguably intentional mishandling of the current catastrophe has led to a level of pushback and scrutiny that he's never experienced before, increasing his belligerence and need for petty revenge as he withholds vital funding, personal protective equipment, and ventilators that your tax dollars have paid for from states whose governors don't kiss his ass sufficiently," Mary Trump wrote.
The White House declined to comment. ____________ LOL. Wonder why.

Voters are simply too unhappy with Trump’s handling of the coronavirus. “As long as that’s true,” The Times’s Nate Cohn told me, “I don’t see how he has the freedom to employ wedge issues.”
Of course, the usual caveat applies: The campaign still has four months left.
I have flat feet and in 1970 I failed the physical exam in Denver Colorado.
I have my 4F card
I had already completed a test on my education and intelligence, on the Navy nuclear power program.
They were upset because they thought that I would have been a great sailor.
And Donald Trump didn't actually fuck the porn star.
Colin Kaepernick, the activist quarterback shunned by the N.F.L., has signed a deal with Disney to produce stories about race and injustice.
And you are ok with the President saying that President Obama was born in Kenya.
And you are ok with the President posting a video of people shouting white power

That seems beyond F'n's comprehension
Somebody tap the POS "pastor" on the shoulder and explain to him that when Goddard quotes Axios for example, the source really is Axios but EVERYTHING NOT IN QUOTES is Goddard and needs to be attributed (including his original "headlines") else it is plagiarism. That is why Goddard posts "by Taegan Goddard"

Correction squared
On Monday, information regarding recipients of at least $150,000 in loans through the Paycheck Protection Program was released. Among the recipients are a number of Trump administration-affiliated businesses, including the family business of Transportation Sec. Elaine Chao, which Newsweek reports is run by her father and sister, and a trucking company co-founded by Agriculture Sec. Sonny Perdue. Several companies and businesses with ties to the family of Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and a White House adviser, also received loans through the program: The New York Observer, a news site owned by Kushner’s brother-in-law’s investment firm, received up to $1 million in aid; a Hebrew academy in New Jersey that bears Joseph Kushner’s name and is supported by the family was approved for up to $2 million in loans.
Yeezy, Kanye West’s fashion line, also received between $2 million and $5 million through the Paycheck Protection Program, claiming that it helped save his company’s 106 jobs.
A Newsweek analysis found at least 6 companies with ties to members of Congress applied for millions in loans through the program, including businesses with direct ties to Reps. Roger Williams (R-TX), Mike Kelly (R-PA), Rick Allen (R-GA), Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), Kevin Hern (R-OK), and Devin Nunes (R-CA). All of the representatives listed above voted against a bill to require the disclosure of recipients of loans in excess of $2 million.
Initially, Treasury Sec. Steven Mnuchin implied that the names of recipients would not be released to the public. That decision was met with outrage from Democrats, who pressured for more transparency and accountability. Eventually, the Small Business Administration and the Treasury Department agreed to release the names of recipients who received more than $150,000, though exact dollar amounts are still not public information.

Trump, Narcissist
Ms. Trump, a clinical psychologist, asserts that her uncle has all nine clinical criteria for being a narcissist. And yet, she notes, even that label does not capture the full array of the president’s psychological troubles.
“The fact is,” she writes, “Donald’s pathologies are so complex and his behaviors so often inexplicable that coming up with an accurate and comprehensive diagnosis would require a full battery of psychological and neurophysical tests that he’ll never sit for.”
At another point she says: “Donald has been institutionalized for most of his adult life, so there is no way to know how he would thrive, or even survive, on his own in the real world.”
Like other critics of the president, Ms. Trump takes issue in the book with the notion that Mr. Trump is a strategic thinker who operates according to specific agendas or organizing principles.
“He doesn’t,” she writes. “Donald’s ego has been and is a fragile and inadequate barrier between him and the real world, which, thanks to his father’s money and power, he never had to negotiate by himself.”

yep.
i took the same test as the alky and mysteriously i too scored as qualified for the navy nuclear program.
as did most every kid in my 11th grade catholic school class.
not 5 years out of vietnam the military was hurting big time for recruits, so they sent a bunch of recruiters out to local public and private schools to proctor an exam that was so fucking easy we all crushed it and a room temp IQ could've passed the fucking thing.
i only knew of one kid in the entire school who entered the military upon graduation - a senior a year ahead of me who went to annapolis.
the exam that the alky occasionally brags about was a clever sales pitch made to make imbeciles like him think they were smart so as to lure them in.
nuclear program. heh. more like scrubbing pots and pans on a heavy cruiser somewhere out at sea.
TRUMP'S PARANOIA TAKES ANOTHER UPTICK AS
Lindsey Graham Distances Himself from Trump
“Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has publicly opposed President Trump five times in the past few weeks — including a new rebuke Monday — an unusual torrent of dissent from one of the president’s top allies in Washington just months before the South Carolina Republican faces a tough reelection challenge,” the Columbia State reports.

David Wasserman: “When even Lindsey Graham starts repudiating Trump, you know it’s… oh wait, he just made it through his primary and was willing to say anything to survive all along because he doesn’t have a life outside of being a senator. This isn’t hard, folks.”

Trump’s Worldview Forged by Neglect and Trauma
A tell-all book by President Trump’s niece describes a family riven by a series of traumas, exacerbated by a daunting patriarch who “destroyed” Donald Trump by short-circuiting his “ability to develop and experience the entire spectrum of human emotion,” according to a copy of the forthcoming memoir obtained by the Washington Post.
Rick Hasen: “Like the John Bolton book, the early leaking of the book essentially moots further attempts at prior restraint to stop publication.”

Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man
by Mary L. Trump, Ph.D.
MARY TRUMP: “Honest work was never demanded of him, and no matter how badly he failed, he was rewarded in ways that are almost unfathomable. He continues to be protected from his own disasters in the White House. But now the stakes are far higher than they’ve ever been before; they are literally life and death. Unlike any previous time in his life, Donald’s failings cannot be hidden or ignored because they threaten us all.”

How Mary Trump Leaked Family Tax Documents
Mary Trump tells the story in her new tell-all of how she secretly gave the New York Times much of the source material for its 14,000 word investigation of how President Trump participated in dubious tax schemes, according to Axios.
MS.TRUMP: "At 3:00, I drove to the loading dock beneath the building, and nineteen boxes were loaded into the back of the borrowed truck I was driving since I couldn’t work the clutch in my own car.
"It was just beginning to get dark when I pulled into my driveway. The three reporters were waiting for me in David’s white SUV, which sported a pair of reindeer antlers and a huge red nose wired to the grill.
"When I showed them the boxes, there were hugs all around. It was the happiest I’d felt in months."

‘Cheating as a Way of Life’
The New York Times says Mary's book "depicts a multigenerational saga of greed, betrayal and internecine tension and seeks to explain how President Trump’s position in one of New York’s wealthiest and most infamous real-estate empires helped him acquire what Ms. Trump has referred to as ‘twisted behaviors’ — attributes like seeing other people in ‘monetary terms’ and practicing ‘cheating as a way of life.'”
Among the highlights: Trump paid someone to take the SAT on his behalf which he used to later gain admittance as an undergraduate to the University of Pennsylvania’s prestigious Wharton business school.
Also stunning: “Ms. Trump, a clinical psychologist, asserts that her uncle has all nine clinical criteria for being a narcissist. And yet, she notes, even that label does not capture the full array of the president’s psychological troubles.”
Writes Mary Trump: “The fact is, Donald’s pathologies are so complex and his behaviors so often inexplicable that coming up with an accurate and comprehensive diagnosis would require a full battery of psychological and neurophysical tests that he’ll never sit for.”

so she's a criminal and proud of it.
trump should make it his life's work to destroy this woman and drive her to suicide.
If the tax schemes really were/are dubious, should she not be proud of exposing them?

I see the lying plagiarizing POS "pastor" still hasn't learned that he is plagiarizing. See this is NOT in quotes.
Or more likely that he doesn't care.
A complete fraud of a "pastor".
And showing us continuously.
As almost everyone here says "FUCK OF PEDERAST"
KNEE SLAPPING HIGHlarious.
I guess F'n never heard of indirect quote, such as "she tells the story" etc.
Most stupid of all is the fact that F'n still can't get it through his dense head that I would have to put MY OWN NAME on someone else's words to be guilty of "plagiarism."

Plagiarism: The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.
James said... (guess that's not his own name...but anyway...)
All of the following are considered plagiarism:
turning in someone else's work as your own
copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit
copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not (see our section on "fair use" rules)
https://www.plagiarism.org/article/what-is-plagiarism
btw he even plagiarized the definition he used !!!
ROFLMFAO at the plagiarizing idiot !!!
In the book, Mary Trump writes that current challenges have weakened the president's usual tools for shielding himself from blame.
“His ability to control unfavorable situations by lying, spinning, and obfuscating has diminished to the point of impotence in the midst of the tragedies we are currently facing,” she said.
“His egregious and arguably intentional mishandling of the current catastrophe has led to a level of pushback and scrutiny that he's never experienced before, increasing his belligerence and need for petty revenge as he withholds vital funding, personal protective equipment, and ventilators that your tax dollars have paid for from states whose governors don't kiss his ass sufficiently," Mary Trump wrote.
The White House declined to comment.
