Over 200 thousand Americans are dead from a pandemic, with millions more suddenly unemployed. Historic uprisings against racist police brutality have reinvigorated discourse on the power of police officers over Americans everywhere. The nominee for the Supreme Court seat left by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has sparked concerns that some of the most consequential rulings could be overturned.

Yet with only 13 days before the 2020 election, President Donald Trump has devoted his closing message to berating reporters and slamming the pitching skills of virus response team member Dr. Anthony Fauci.


The Democratic nominee of 2016, Hillary Clinton, predicted Trump's behavior during a national crisis like the one before us now, and she noted that in a recent tweet.

Trump, one of the world's most infamous Twitter users, is known for contradicting his current stances with tweets from years before, creating the mantra that—for Trump—there's a "tweet for everything" or "there's always a tweet."

Clinton noted that, in her case, there's a "speech for everything," as evidenced by her words in 2016:

"Now, just imagine if you can, Donald Trump sitting in the Oval Office the next time America faces a crisis. Imagine him being in charge when your jobs and savings are at stake. Is this who you want to lead us in an emergency? Someone thin-skinned and quick to anger who'd likely be on Twitter attacking reporters or bringing the whole regulatory system down on his critics when he should be focused on fixing what's wrong? Would he even know what to do?"

Watch the moment below.

The picture Clinton painted was eerily prescient, as Trump has attacked not only Lesley Stahl, but NBC's Savannah Guthrie, CNN's Kristen Welker, Fox News' Chris Wallace, and a host of other reporters in recent days while pandemic relief talks in Congress stall.

Twitter users said that Clinton warned them repeatedly.






Trump's behavior hasn't mollified any concerns about his response to a crisis.



The presidential election is on November 3rd, but early voting has begun in at least 40 states.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
