After abruptly changing his mind and visiting the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta yesterday, sociopath and mentally unstable con man Donald "Very Stable Genius" Trump, in golf attire and wearing a "Keep America Great" cap pulled down to his eyebrows, had some shit to sling at the facility:
"I told Mike [Pence] not to be complimentary of that governor [Jay Inslee of Washington] because that governor is a snake," he told reporters while donning a "Keep America Great" hat at the CDC in Atlanta. "We have a lot of problems with the governor."
"Anybody that wants a test can get a test," Trump said Friday despite concerns over delayed distribution of testing kits.
"And the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect and the transcript," he added in an apparent reference to his phone call with Ukraine's president, which led to his impeachment.
“People are really surprised I understand this stuff,” he said. “Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability.”
“I like the numbers being where they are,” Trump said. “I don’t need the numbers to double because of one ship that wasn’t our fault.” (referring to keeping the passengers on the Grand Princess cruise ship off the California coast onboard). (our emphasis)The spite, ignorance, deceit, self-absorbtion, and pure happy talk delusion in these and other of his statements is cause to be quite worried about the handling of this growing pandemic. One problem is, as is his habit, he is listening to his echo chamber flatterers at Fux and the right-wing media, rather than the experts. Another is we still have months to go before we have the duty to vote him out.
BONUS: The head of the CDC, Robert Redfield, is the chunk o' gristle standing to Trump's left and, hoo boy, is he a piece of work, and a first- class bootlicker:
