Sweating, Rambling Trump Launches Into Racist Tirade Over The Coronavirus

From the article:

An excerpt of Trump’s racist tirade:
You ever notice – I said the other night. Did anybody see my speech the other night, on Saturday night? What I said the other night, there’s never been anything where they have so many names. I could give you 19 or 20 names for that, right? It’s got all different names. Wuhan. Wuhan was catching on. Coronavirus, right? Kung flu. Kung flu. COVID. COVID-19. Covid. I say what’s the 19? COVID-19. Some people can’t explain what the 19 — give me. COVID-19. I said that’a an odd name. I could give you many, many names. Some people call it the Chinese flu, the China flu. … I’ve never seen anything like it, but here’s the story: We are going to be stronger than ever before and it’s going to be soon.

Meanwhile, as Trump visibly deteriorates, the leadership of the GOP pretends that all is well.

i'm being generous to him and i say that knowing i'm insulting 8-year olds by comparison.

he may have dementia, but his thinking and emotional intelligence have been stunted for a long, long time.

He is seriously out of shape, and he is under enormous, self-caused stress.

with him he's always enraged and yelling, he is engulfed in rage just like his followers. I hope that hate consumes them.

reported that one young woman said her father had just gone back to work three weeks ago, and got Covid, and died last week.

Apparently she STILL thinks Trump is right and it's gone away and is no big deal.

His sociopathy is contagious. It's terrifying to see-- "Yeah, my dad just died of this because my state sent him back to work too soon, but it's all a hoax because Mr. Trump says so! And isn't it funny!"
