So I have to say, I somehow forgot that Trump is a fucking moron who can make everything worse

[conuly]

just by breathing on it.

Really, we all should've taken that more into account.

The worst part is that he'll probably survive anything, like cockroaches*, and even if he does die the Trumpists will insist it was a conspiracy. Lose-lose.

* I should not make that comparison. I actually quite admire roaches. They're really a remarkable evolutionary success story.

While yes, he is a roach, remember that one negative COVID test does not mean that you don't have the infection. You have to take two tests about a week apart to truly be clear. It means that if he is infected, he hasn't yet built up enough antibodies right now to be measurable.

So there's hope.

If his lifestyle hasn't killed him yet....

This. He's surrounded by people who have tested positive. Plus given that he and his cronies lie about everything they could just as easily be lying about this. Who knows?

He sounds and looks like shit right now though.

It's remotely possible that he's beginning to realize that this virus could actually kill a number of his voters, which puts him in danger of being charged with crimes if he doesn't get reelected.

[lightbird]

That is remotely possible, especially since he was still holding rallies in early March and shaking hands with attendees.

Yeah, I read an interview with him and Pence, saying "The people want to shake our hands, we're gonna shake their hands!"  It's not like they could, say, set an example for the country or something. Meanwhile, they secretly approached German scientists, trying to bribe them to give the USA exclusive access to a treatment/cure/vaccine. Yup, very prepared.  That's what we are!

[lightbird]

Right? Meanwhile weeks ago they refused to accept the tests WHO was offering. OMG, I have never in my life hated people as much as I hate these people.

[conuly]

Which he won't be, because they'll all be dead.

I wish. What a much more just world that would be.

I believe the State of New York has a portfolio waiting for him to no longer be POTUS, such as things involving his "charity" and his property taxes since it came out quite publicly that he would claim one value for his properties, quite high, when going to banks to borrow and a much lower value when wrangling with tax inspectors.

[marahmarie]

Yeah, I'd posted a while back saying he's going to jail (right after he was impeached). I didn't say when. I know he is, one way or the other; it might just take some time.

Soooooo corrupt, all-around.
