He's basing every decision he makes on what's going to get him re-elected. I wouldn't doubt he talks more to his campaign advisers on a daily basis than he does anyone else.

is the most evil fuck I have seen in my lifetime. He isn't even defending some bizarre ideology. This is about his self preservation - his obsessive belief that he is a great leader and only he can fix it. He is fucking this up the same way he fucked up everything else in his lifetime.

Anyonee who can say that his economy is the best in the history of the world is a fucking lunatic and that is kind.

Regardless of how much Red vs Blue stuff he throws out there - this Coronavirus is real.

And death to a friend, family member or someone you know about as a result of this virus, will go a long way toward clearing your mind. The closer the death to you - the clearer your mind becomes.
