Whatever mind altering substance he’s on must be potent as fuck.

Also, the DEATH TOTAL is what he’s claiming is “down,” not the number of new infections (even though that obviously isn’t true either.)

Did I read that right?

Does he think that infected people who’ve died are somehow un-dying and coming back to life?

The death rate of hospitalized patients is down. That’s the only thing that remotely fits what he is saying. Hopefully we won’t follow his dad’s plan to let the hospitals get overwhelmed so that the rate will crawl back up again.

It wouldn’t suprise me if there are Trumpists who genuinely believe that Trump is the second coming of Christ, and he is bringing covid victims back to life Lazarus style.

It’s like Trump realized there was one last thing left to do while still in office.

They were all paid crisis-actors who Sleepy Joe Biden and (((Soros))) hired as part of a Chinese Deep State operation out of the Comet Ping Pong Pizza Parlor run by Fauci who is Hitler’s communist grandson. Study it out, sheeple!

Just like Alex Jones and about a hundred others peddling their fantasies that Sandy Hook was staged. The only way THEIR reality works is to foist their bullshit sick nightmares onto the rest of us who are busy living by the rules not to hurt anybody. All of these huckster shitheads, Trump, his family, H(ins)annity, Jones, Carlson, need to rot in prison with no internet access. They have stunk up the house.

Shouldn’t Donny-Boy Jr be donating some of his holy immortal plasma to nurture those few fellow citizens still afflicted? Think noblesse oblige, hey?

I liked John Oliver’s explanation of Trump’s relationship to the truth, way back in mid-2016. Oliver showed a picture of a lemur holding a banana, and explained (quoting from memory): “Trump’s relationship with the truth is like this lemur’s relationship to quantum string theory. ‘Who cares? I’ve got my banana.’”

At the time, I laughed. Now, I grimly nod.

Trump &co are saying anything which might get them votes and push them over the line.

I think what he meant to say is “the death numbers are almost nothing compared to the number of you that we’re willing to sacrifice for our personal gain”.
