White (Supremacist) House Tells Us Trump Ended The Pandemic

From the alternate universe that is the White (Supremacist) House comes word that nitwit narcissist Donald "COVID Donnie" Trump has ended the COVID-19 pandemic!

Health officials and scientists working on the Trump administration’s coronavirus response said on Tuesday they are personally offended by the White House’s announcement that it has successfully ended the COVID-19 pandemic—a pandemic that is, in fact, worsening.

In a statement released Tuesday afternoon the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy said that it considered “ending the COVID-19 pandemic” to be one of President Donald Trump’s major first term accomplishments. The office released a corresponding report that listed achievements of the Trump administration in the area of science and innovation.

“It’s mind-boggling,” one official said of the White House’s assertion it had ended the pandemic. “There’s no world in which anyone can think that [statement] is true. Maybe the president. But I don’t see how even he can believe that. We have more than 70,000 new cases each day.”

Four officials working with the White House coronavirus task force told The Daily Beast that they viewed the White House’s statement as a personal slight and a public rebuke of their efforts to try and get control of the virus.

Of course, this is Orwellian, banana republic stuff we don't think you couldn't get away with even in Putin's Russia.  But this kind of insane doublethink has become a dependable feature of the Trump personality cult that has infested his regime and his rotted out party for years.

We're climbing the third wave of the pandemic, with a record 500,000 new cases just in the last week alone, much of the rise occurring in red states.  Meanwhile, the nitwit narcissist is out at his ego- massaging superspreader Nuremberg rallies telling his sub- moronic cult that "COVID, COVID, COVID" gets all the media attention now but won't after November 3. 

Someone get a net...  Make that nets.
