What the Hell? (or, Tump's Descent into Madness)

[Sef]

A total of eight WH staffers involved with the rally have tested positive for Covid-19 so far:

Seriously, how does trump not catch it?

[Lynx]

Priceless. I do see some fab ads. So much material. It kills.

Another take...

[Bookfan]

Lincoln Project ads - Yes!

Husband heard somewhere that trump wears lifts in his shoes. If he does, they would make it hard going down a ramp. I don't know how he's managed to avoid catching coronavirus.

[ItsaZoo]

Love the Lincoln Project.

There's something going on with Trump's health. He's moving odd like he lacks coordination. It looks like a balance issue or something neurological the way he walks leaning forward and taking small steps.

[bpatters]

I think he's got one of the frontal lobe dementias, and maybe Parkinson's disease.

[Sef]

Hard to say, especially when his physician lets trump write his own "clean bill of health."

[Bookfan]

I was thinking Parkinson's too, since I have it. Balance issue, check (big hosta I fell into last week), walks leaning forward, check (I cringe every time I walk past a mirror & see myself leaning), taking small steps, check, moving like you lack coordination, check, aphasia, check.

But, yeah, some of those can be symptoms of dementia, especially the small steps and memory problems. I have a friend whose husband was having some strange psycho/neuro problems. Turned out he had hydrocephalus.

[Sef]

What's more disturbing--the shit that comes out of his mouth, or the cheering of several thousand people when he says them?

[Bookfan]

Do they actually listen to what he says or just wait for him to stop talking so they can yell. Unfortunately, they like what comes out of his mouth.

I wonder how many cases that rally will cause, and then the one in Arizona. I don't know how he has avoided catching it.

[ItsaZoo]

All I can say is I bet Hillary could walk that ramp at West Point - dressed in a skirt and pumps to boot!

[Waddles]

"...I don't know how he has avoided catching it."

I saw an article leading up to the Tulsa rally which describes how staffers who interact with him have to get constantly tested to make sure they aren't positive. No one else is allowed to get anywhere near him. Basically , he moves around in an invisible sterile bubble .

[Sef]

Must be nice. Meanwhile, he "jokes" about telling his people to slow down on testing. With well over 100,000 American deaths and counting.

There really aren't adequate words to describe how vile, deeply disturbed and thoroughly reprehensible this man is.

[Crazy4me]

I can't stand the man. This man is all about himself and could care less about those who are sick from this virus, lost loved ones, or have died from this virus. I wish Trump and all of his supporters get this virus. Maybe then they might realize Trump doesn't give a crap about them (wishful thinking on my part).

And for gosh sake, quit stating this "China virus." I don't care where it came from, all I care about is it is here causing heartache and misery. What happened to defending the U.S. from threats both foreign and domestic?

[Sef]

Rampant incompetence, cronyism and corruption, coupled with a total lack of leadership and human decency from a man who only cares about himself and his re-election, have resulted in an epic FAIL on so many levels.

Meanwhile, while Rome burns:

"I just had the privilege of signing a very strong Executive Order protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues - and combatting recent Criminal Violence...Long prison terms for these lawless acts against our Great Country!"

He couldn't be a decent president if his life depended on it.

[Waddles]

More on how he avoids catching it:

"...When he travels to locations where the virus is surging, every venue the President enters is inspected for potential areas of contagion by advance security and medical teams, according to people familiar with the arrangements. Bathrooms designated for the President's use are scrubbed and sanitized before he arrives. Staff maintain a close accounting of who will come into contact with the President to ensure they receive tests."

Ah, but there is no danger. No danger. It will be gone in a month. It will be gone by the summer.

What a waste of taxpayer money when intimate knowledge of covid19 could educate and save lives.

[Sef]

White House Barbie says, “The president does read and he also consumes intelligence verbally. This president, I’ll tell you, is the most informed person on the planet Earth...”

Which begs the question: are her pants, in fact, on fire?

[Lynx]

I see smoke...

[ItsaZoo]

Wow, did they actually check every person on planet Earth to determine how informed each one was? That would take a long time - maybe they used Survey Monkey.
