As a passionate trump supporter until the start of this covid era, I have been amazed and entertained by how strong and fearless he was in fighting and winning singlehandedly an impossible battle against political strongholds on both sides. His potus career just hit a new high on the eve of his 2020 state of union address...but sadly ever since, everything took an abrupt nosedive for him and the nation in a short couple months thanks to what he said and how he reacted during this unprecedented public health crisis. The problem? In my opinion, he took a political approach to solve a scientific and public health problem when challenged by covid, which is much more fearless in disrupting all human establishments than Trump is, while loving all the media attention as much as Trump does.

I am saddened by trump’s covid fallout due to negligence and ignorance in handling this epidemic and by all the human sufferings and life losses.
This Concern Trolling brought to you by, China, makers of novel-viruses, killer Ramen, and repression that would make Stalin blush.

And Biden is a crap candidate who benefits right now from hiding in his basement and doing only scripted interviews. But he can’t do that forever as well
Biden is in his basement watching Trump self destruct. He doesn`t need to do anything.

China! Biden! Hillary! Obama!


When ya can't defend your man--divert.


We could have gotten out of this with only a few thousand deaths and a minimal lockdown period.

Whoosh, the sound made as toodie fails reading comprehension and totally misses the point. Are you suggesting that testing people for whether they are dead or not is false? Look, I'll make it simple. There are 382M people in the US and 7.8B in the world. There are (as of 4/25) 53,928 deaths in the USA and 205K worldwide. Nothing to do with tests.

The Democratic Party has decided to run a senile senator for president.

It's a bad idea and everyone knows it, but Joe is controllable, so he's the guy.

Maybe they'll swap him out at the last minute, but for now, the LSM has to convince people that Trump is even more senile than Biden.
Trump inferred, or suggested, blabbering, as usual to the presenter, that it may be a good idea. His followers, could have heard parts or all of his disastrous comments and ran with it.

Not everyone listens with their brains, sadly. Lysol would kill, while destroying vital organs. Painful death, I would imagine. Trump just likes to hear his own voice, thinking that he is so intelligent. We are in a horrific pandemic and if he can't handle this, he should resign. JMO, again. Stay safe.

It will be memorable but not in a good way.
