“We’ve done too good a job” testing people for an infectious disease. What a fucking imbecile.

It is a waste of time to ask Trump any question of the form “When you said X did you mean X?” because he will never admit to having said X even if cameras were rolling at the time.

He will deny he ever said that, then he will say of course he said that, it is obvious. Then he will blame the media for making it up, then he will say he was right.

I think Trump’s lackey’s keep telling him high COVID rates are a risk to re-election. His desiccated cortex can’t filter this information by the time it leaves his lip-organs.

Said it before - but this smells of a class-action lawsuit for willful negligence causing death on behalf of the victims.

So goddam many people are going to die needless deaths while we wait for the democratic process to accomplish what the impeachment process was unable to achieve. It’s heartbreaking to see how much blatently illegal behavior he can get away with.

Yet with someone else in office, there’s no reassurance that they will be held to any higher standard.

I feel like I’m on a bus speeding down the freeway and the driver is in the back with the passengers, telling us how awesome he’s doing. " I’m the best driver! Who needs a license."

If he says the same thing twice, is it still a dog whistle? He’s not-so-subtly saying “slow down or end testing so I stop looking bad,” right?

And I bet Fox News will help organize it: All the Trump supporters who behaved stupidly suing the US federal government under Joe Biden. A bailout for idiots, or the lawyer that represents them.
