Ugh! Donnie, just shut up.

So now, May 7, 2020, you're blaming/shaming meat plant workers for getting sick?  Seriously?
Is it because, well, they're not as tough, fierce, stupid as you, Donnie?  Is it?  These people that work to put food on YOUR table, who actually work for a living?
The bullsh*t  coming from that mouth is astonishing.  Oh, and do you EVER take responsibility for anything?  Or is your entire life, your enter being, just a fluke of nature?

For most of us... YES.  A loud, resounding Yes.

On May 6, 2020, in "celebration", or Trump's version of a celebration, he invited a group of nurses, nurse practitioners and other healthcare workers into the Oval Office for a meet-and-greet.  You know where this is heading.

Trump contradicted a nurse he was honoring in the Oval Office, insisting there are no personal protective equipment, PPE, shortages in the U.S. despite her account that availability could be "sporadic" at best.
An on-the-ball reporter asked the nurses attending the National Nurse Day event if their PPE supplies are where they need to be right now, during the pandemic, and many nodded in agreement.
Sophia Thomas, president of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners said this, "I mean, I talk to my colleagues around the country.  Certainly there are pockets around the country where PPE is not ideal, but this is an unprecedented time."  She went on the say that she's been reusing a single N95 mask for "a few weeks now."
"We are nurses and we learn to adapt and do whatever we can do for our patients to get the job done and the care provided, and that's what we will continue to do as Covid-19 continues."  

And what does Supreme Leader/Overload Donnie Trump say:
"Sporadic for you but not sporadic for a lot of other people."  Unbelievable.

Pictures, as evidence, don't lie:  
When Nurse Sophia Thomas first speaks about PPE availability

Trump turns his head, as though he hears a noise. No eye contact.

Hmm. Interesting. More noise. Note the arms crossed. He's closing up.


And we have splashdown!  He's heard enough.  Isn't having it. NOT. MY. FAULT.  Completely shut down Nurse Thomas' comments.  Note the folded arms.

This is his typical stance, sitting, when he's heard enough. Conversation over. We're done here.
Pouty, whiny, sad, pathetic little man, Donnie J. Drumpf
 
 I wish, I really do, that Trump, Pence and that whole gang of his enablers in and out of the White House, would get this virus, fast and hard, so that just maybe, they'll change their tune and thinking.  

*Note:
Laurie Garrett, "The Coming Plague".  This book lays out in stunning detail what life will look like after a pandemic, such as Covid-19.  Ms. Garrett has studied this particular issue, viruses, for decades.  Seems like someone our leaders in D.C. (YES, Trump) should be paying attention to right now.

Trump As A Cheerleader


Oh sure, it’s great to have accolades piled high upon one’s self, if he truly, actually deserves it.  Trump, however, has shown, repeatedly over time that NO, he does not.

For example, you remember this:

“I am the least racist person you’ll ever meet.” 

So much going on here.  On the surface, being least anything would seem okay, but here, again NO.  Least racist STILL makes you racist.  

 And on top of that, well, as a white man of privilege, you don’t get to decide if your comments/remarks are racist.  That distinction goes to the person you are berating, you douche bag.  That person, those people, are people of color, and generally, NOT people of privilege. 

I keep waiting for Donald to slip and say something more on target like, “I’m the least intelligent person you will ever meet.  And I have the low IQ test results to prove it. Here’s my charge card receipt, in fact.”

“We’ve done a tremendous job, an amazing job in our response to this pandemic”, not verbatim, but close.  Again, since you aren’t on the receiving end of any PPE, masks, tests, swabs, medical gowns, and on and on, NO, you don’t get to decide if you’ve done a tremendous, amazing job.  Inadequate, at best. 

It’s not surprising this juvenile behavior from the “so-called president”, who frankly can’t tell his sagging, flabby white ass from a hole in the ground.  And listen, having His boy prince/man-child, Jared Kushner, feebly attempt to blow the administration’s horn is patently ridiculous.   “A great success story,” in regards to the Trump Administration’s handling of the coronavirus.  Just pathetic.


Trump recently had a shouting match on the phone with his campaign manager, Brad Pascale, because, apparently, Daddy Donnie’s poll numbers are tanking after Donnie suggested people start ingesting Lysol and other cleaning products to “combat this invisible threat.”   

Yeah, the best response. 


No, the BEST response will come in November 2020 when someone named Trump doesn’t get elected back into the Oval Office at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Weird, Dangerous Headlines (and stories) From Trump About The Coronavirus

Trump Administration Coronavirus Take Force
Remember these two dates:  February 5 and February 6, 2020.   Why?

February 6, 2020:  The first American dies of the Coronavirus, Covid-19.
Keep those two important dates in mind as you read through the following articles.
His National Security Team briefed him on the impending dangers of the novel Coronavirus in early January.  Did he pay attention, as he never does?  Of course not.

Who Will Be Held Accountable For Trump's Nonsensical Ideas?:



-------------------------

It’s not enough that Donald has hijacked the daily coronavirus task force briefings, but his bat-crap crazy remarks are making his health care professionals cringe from the sidelines.  Those cringes, are from doctors and scientists thinking not only about how they are going to publicly, cautiously correct Donnie, but do it in such a way that they instill trust in their words and hard work at the same time appeasing his stupidness. Blatant stupidness, with zero regard for human life and safety.  It’s a very fine line.  
 Dr. Deborah Birx
Dr. Anthony Fauci
In fact, internet trolls and Trump fanboys (and girls) were pushing this hashtag recently:
#FireFauci  
That’s dangerous.
The most important article is the last one about who exactly is going to be held accountable for Trump’s stupid, thoughtless, ridiculous, nonsensical remarks and actions.
