Media: @JohnJHarwood @NewDay: "The most vivid possible demonstration of the incompetence and irresponsibility of @realDonaldTrump's administration. Unable to protect the country, those around him, or himself. A serious, serious blow to his reelection campaign, already reeling." pic.twitter.com/Sfu9PtZIY0

“It’s hard to imagine this doesn’t end his hopes of re-election,” says @RobStutzman. “Trump is now in the position of becoming exhibit No. 1 for the failure of his leadership on coronavirus,” says @geoffgarin. https://t.co/LbXzBtYqIo

Spare a thought tonight for the families of more than 200,000 Americans who died in this pandemic, many of them, according to public health experts, unnecessarily because of America's botched response.

The President tested positive for the HOAX.

Just moments before the first presidential debate, a Cleveland Clinic doctor’s attempt to get Trump’s guests to wear masks was rejected. Melania was sitting with the family. Rules mandated everyone in the room wear a surgical blue mask.

I’m told a small group of officials were aware Thursday a.m. that Hope Hicks had tested positive. Despite that, President Trump traveled to New Jersey for a fundraiser and his press secretary held a briefing.

*After* White House officials learned Hicks was symptomatic and had close contact with the President, the President attended a fundraiser in New Jersey where he did not wear a mask and interacted with "dozens" of people. https://t.co/lzNK32gjE2

Donald Trump mocked Joe Biden for wearing masks two nights ago:

"I don't wear masks like him. Every time you see him, he's got a mask. He could be speaking 200 feet away from them and he shows up with the biggest mask I've ever seen." https://t.co/R52TE2xmT3
Finally, memories --
Four years ago, today: Donald Trump was mocking Hillary Clinton for contracting an illness - pneumonia - and implying that it showed she was weak. https://t.co/wywh62CntI

And a musical commentary:

I'm a bit leary about this. Seems too many positives could come from this. No debates, tough guy who beat it, right all along, sympathy. I don't trust these people one iota! This is how they play. No matter what they will turn this to their advantage more than likely. If it's true then it's well deserved and he croaks I'm good with it.
ReplyDeleteIf he's not faking, it sounds like a case of believing one's own bullshit.
ReplyDeleteOne Fly -- not trusting them is the only place to start. I think this is a metaphor for the reckless way he's comported himself -- "unable to protect the country or himself." We'll see how it plays out.
ReplyDeletebluzdude -- as a world-class narcissist, his "gut" is always right, even when there's coronavirus making it's way through it!
I don't want the Trump's to die. Just 4 or 5 weeks with a tube in their lungs so they know the hell they unnecessarily put tens of thousands through. One Fly is right, if they have Covid light it will be no worries, just a flu, everybody go back to work.
ReplyDeleteMart -- that's pretty much our view as well.
