Trump's Coronavirus Great Depression must rattling him badly if he's a desperate enough dolt to poke a murder hornets nest, a.k.a. the most popular politician in America. But, in the spirit of "forewarned is forearmed":
On 'Obamagate': niche programming for Trump super-fans, and the political equivalent of retreating to his safe space and hiding under his blanket for the pandemic-challenged President.— Susan Glasser (@sbg1) May 15, 2020
