“With three weeks to go until Election Day, and millions of votes already cast, coronavirus remains the top issue for America,” Trevor Noah said on Thursday’s episode of The Daily Show. “And any normal president would be laser-focused on getting corona under control, helping businesses stay afloat, keeping schools open. But Donald Trump is not a normal president.” Instead, Trump and his lawyer Rudy Giuliani are […]
Eric Trump
Donald Trump may be feuding with Dr. Anthony Fauci. But at least, as Trevor Noah put it Tuesday night, the president did get “a very real endorsement from another top scientist” this week. The Daily Show host was referring to Eric Trump, who appeared on ABC News’ This Week on Sunday and boasted about the “vaccine” that supposedly saved his father’s life. “It goes to speak […]
Presidential son Eric Trump apparently thinks that a coronavirus vaccine has been fully developed and his father took it after he caught the virus in order to defeat COVID-19. If you are confused by that, you aren’t alone. Eric Trump appeared on ABC’s This Week on Sunday morning to discuss President Donald Trump’s return to public events and campaign rallies despite his recent hospitalization for coronavirus. […]
President Donald Trump went postal on Twitter Monday morning over the threat he claims mailed ballots pose to the integrity of U.S. elections—but his family seems to have never gotten the message. The commander in chief fired off another social media fusillade against the practice of submitting ballots through the post, which he has previously labeled “horrible,” “terrible,” and “corrupt,” as well as “dangerous,” “fraudulent,” and […]
How can you sue Donald Trump? Let us count the ways.

The case offers a window into the kinds of activities allegedly […]
What do far-right blogger Michelle Malkin, conspiracy nuts, and Trump’s racist fanboys have in common? They’re “like political herpes”—no matter what you do, they’re always going to reappear, somewhere. In Episode 9 of The New Abnormal, The Daily Beast’s podcast for a world gone off the rails, Rick Wilson explains why he’s avoiding sushi, tea, helicopters, and, perhaps, knives and Molly Jong-Fast mulls over what is […]
During an interview with Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro this weekend, Donald Trump’s son Eric suggested the COVID-19 shutdowns are a “cognizant strategy” meant to hurt his father’s re-election chances. “You watch, they’ll milk it every single day between now and November 3,” he said. “And guess what, after November 3, coronavirus will magically, all of a sudden, go away and disappear and everybody will be able […]
Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar largely punted on Sunday when confronted by CNN anchor Jake Tapper over presidential son Eric Trump’s insane claim that the coronavirus will “magically” disappear after Election Day. In an interview with pro-Trump Fox News host Jeanine Pirro on Saturday night, Eric Trump dove down a conspiratorial rabbit hole while talking about presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. Claiming Biden […]
