This rumor is trending on Twitter under SDNY
Edit to add Jon Cooper on Twitter: #TeamJoe. Formerly Chair of @TheDemCoalition, National Finance Chair for Draft Biden 2016; Long Island Campaign Chair for @BarackObama

More rumor mongering from Jon Cooper along the lines of "breaking point, it's the Covid. stupids"
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 2:19pm
Trump @ 42% approval 2yrs already - flat line. Rats may scurry but they don't run that fast.

As the old song goes:
"I beg your pardon, I gave you Covid in the Rose Garden."

Hmmmm, 13 minutes ago:

You're the boss, no probs about the editing, BUT myself, I think news about viral rumors IS news. Thas why I put a question mark.
Is an interesting meta issue in itself.
I spose I could have added Viral Rumor: along with question mark to make it clearer?
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 2:54pm
Further on the meta of it: why is Jon Cooper and JewishNewsUSA doing this? Is anyone behind it? Is the Biden campaign okay with pushing this rumor? Will SDNY put out an acknowledgment even in form of denial, or just ignore it? Etc.

Cooper's back, so maybe just got too excited...
by PeraclesPlease on Sun, 10/11/2020 - 2:44pm
he tweeted two and three hours ago, but one of them Twitter censored!
If you go to his feed you see one this way only
if you click through on it to it, only then do you see it with their warning above it
Flaw in Twitter's system noted: BUT when you copy the embed code, the warning does not come along! So it can indeed be perpetuated.

Would certainly easily buy the part of the story that Melania is threatening to exit the White House after hearing that leaked recording of how cynical she is about the first lady job and how disgusted she sounded about having to play the role. Now she's in quarantine with Covid. We were told mild symptoms but don't really know since then, probably having to deprive herself of seeing her son who, tho negative, we were told, also probably has to quarantine from other humans.

Twitter suspends "Jon Cooper tweets" for "spam and platform manipulation" and, before that, "jewishnewsusa":
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 5:51pm
The @JewishNewsUSA account has been suspended for some unknown reason.
https://mobile.twitter.com/jewishnewsusa?lang=en
Jon Cooper's tweet has been deleted.

we got it (see above) BUT THANK YOU for debunking work, appreciated

Ok, here's Trump family troubles gossip the old-fashioned way: anonymous sources related to Don Jr. to Gabriel Sherman @ Vanity Fair:
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 7:19pm
Comes to mind that, too, is a family tradition! Back in the 80's The Donald used to call up Page Six at the NYPost, pretend he was someone else, and give them all the poop he wanted to see in print.
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 7:26pm
Somebody close is leaking about crazy behavior all over the place, including apparently to the NYT:
(I found retweeted by Rick Wilson here but don't have a story link for the excerpt)
top reply to Mariotti, just for one of many illustrations:

Here's a tweet with link to the article with the Superman shirt story, it's by Karni & Haberman, filed @ 7:04 pm today Trump Makes First Public Appearance Since Leaving Walter Reed
by artappraiser on Sat, 10/10/2020 - 7:53pm
P.S. Superman T-shirt story gone viral now That was quick, less than 1 1/2 hrs. after the story was published. Can only imagine Facebook etc.

An interesting line of speculation but depends a lot upon the idea that there would be agents interested in protecting him once he did not have the power to hurt them.

...“He’s going to kill himself,” one adviser said...

I read this, really does sound like chaos, there is nothing like a campaign plan going on, nobody can control him or knows what he is thinking. They're all just flying by seat of pants (why they are making mistakes like w/Fauci ad?) Seems almost like he's not consulting anyone but rather is on a tear to start working on his "bucket list", that he doesn't care whether what he does helps or hurts, its' all just like the Sinatra song "I gotta be me". Like maybe it's his last chance to "be Trump" and if he follows his bliss, maybe a miracle will happen and reverse things, you never know, after all, he's got coronavirus and he feels great, that's a miracle to him already:
It fits that when he was at Walter Reed he mostly worked on all the old grievances, a list of enemies and cases against them and once out started screaming how Barr & Pompeo et. al. were negligent in not pursuing it. That's "bucket list" behavior, making a list, what's important to him.

still just flying high on the "i gotta be me" thing:

flying higher than a kite, probably partly steroids and the rest from the non-stop fan club rallies where he gets the cheers he craves for rambling idiocy, he directly "ats" Maggie Haberman on Twitter, like sending a postcard back in the old days. i.e. "having so much fun, wish you were here"
Makes clear he doesn't really like being president, but he just loves his version of a campaign trail. Imagines himself America's top motivational speaker. Except his message is like video gaming role play (which he doesn't realize because he has no knowledge of same)--white hats vs. black hats, make up stories to fit, attack the other guy with nicknames and stories and shit.

Channeling Thelma & Louise? Village People style?
One can only hope

Or Jonestown, maybe.
Let's all gather around the punch bowl.
by moat on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 11:04am
Still, it needs to be all about him.
by PeraclesPlease on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 11:15am
Makes me think how he may want them all to cry for him. Ugh, it's almost like civil war would be better than having him and his fans rallying and protesting all the time after Jan. At all the courthouses where cases against him are? We should be so lucky if he is willing to go into exile in January-I think not.

Meanwhile, FWIW Pat Robertson is predicting end times IF HE WINS! Oh boy.

Ice Cube said that Trump was adding Cube's Contract With Black America to Trump's two page Platinum Plan for Black America.
Im reminded that Jim Brown and Ray Lewis took their plan for aiding the Black community to Trump.That went well

At the rate he is going, he could pass away while performing at a rally. It is stressful putting out that much energy just as the drugs kick in.
The fans in the front row will catch him as he comes barreling off the stage.
by moat on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 4:30pm
completely going for the "I gotta be me" drama
President Trump walked out of an interview with 60 Minutes host Lesley Stahl on Tuesday, CNN reports
@ Twitter headlines
On Tuesday, after reportedly walking out of an interview with the 60 Minutes host, President Trump Tweeted that Stahl was “not wearing a mask in the White House after her interview with me,” and added, “Much more to come.” According to CNN’s Kaitlin Collins, the Tweet happened after Trump “abruptly ended his solo interview after around 45 minutes.”

In that instance, he could have been realizing he was on the edge of a big burn between what he had in the tank and what was required from him.
He has a funny way of pulling out that is not evident in his excesses in other places.
Not self awareness per se; More of a regulating valve of some kind known only to him.
by moat on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 7:56pm
yes, it's looking like you might be right as reports have changed he's going to post it now himself or something who knows. I am embarrassed sometimes that I have interest, ridiculous in a way that we get so into psychoanalyzing his every move. At same time, I think you are right that he could also keel over any minute, so that would be like missing the Hindenberg explosion. Remember back in the days when if pols were too narcissistic they lost elections because they didn't pander to voters but only themselves? His psychological sickness is a draw, there's no way getting around the interest.
by artappraiser on Tue, 10/20/2020 - 8:22pm
here it is for the umpteenth time--only looking for ratings as an entertainer, zero concept of it as a job where anything real is accomplished
The role he played in The Apprentice was totally out of character, judging who had capability of getting things done and who couldn't. He could care less about such things. A star at telling stories to rave reviews (note used "BOFFO" in tweet above to Haberman) that's what he's always wanted to be. Before presidency, it was the same thing when appearing on talk shows like Howard Stern: say and do outrageous things that get attention.

just interested in telling entertaining stories that get a rise out of people:
