If he becomes infected then there will those "conservatives" who will feel pity for him.
I want him to go out blazing in the election.

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

While it would be nice for him to get it...it would prove to idiots that pretending it doesn't exist is stupid. But, if he does get it and recovers, then "prayer" would have cured it and there we go down that rabbit hole.
So, we are damned either way.

And no, Pence is no better. He just hides his better with no tweets.

on the grounds that it is just a hoax, just the flu, no big deal, etc.

Trump getting it and surviving is very dangerous for the rest of us -- because of his followers' response to that. Better that he does not get it.

And I want him to suffer.

Sorry, he'd say the same about you.

I have a different reason, though, than just wishing him pain and suffering.

He has claimed to have taken the test and the results were negative. Bullshit.

I want him to show signs of the virus soon, to illuminate this lie.

Symptoms cannot be spun by FOX. The virus does not choose its victims according to voting preferences. Let the MAGATS see with their very eyes that this is much worse than the flu, that we do have cause for major concern, and that Trump's lies may have put THEM in harm's way. He's the poster boy for denying facts and science, and here's an opportunity to demonstrate why a smug, arrogant con man has no business leading a country.

Beyond that which any compassionate human being would afford another.

It may simply give the GOP a way to keep Trump off the ballot in 2020, which is probably what they'd prefer anyway, and that's what scares me more.

Would I have wished ill on Hitler if I'd been around during his time and even vaguely aware of the horror he was inflicting? You are damned right I would have.

My only concern with Trump is not allowing him to be made some kind of martyr.

And I want a meteor to strike the room wherein he's recovering, followed by a fissure opening in the ground to allow a brief but effective spurt of lava, perhaps followed by a few bolts of lightning and a localized collapse back into the earth.

After that, I'd like a pack of badly incontinent dogs to relieve themselves at the site.


Then we can get him in the general.

He is a self centered and lacking empathy to give a shit about others.

People need to accept his is just a major piece of shit and doing things because he's evil, not stupid.

28. Should one rejoice
Sun Mar 15, 2020, 01:17 PM
Mar 2020

Should one rejoice at the relief from the end of a tyrant's reign, especially when the benefit of his absence would be great for millions of people, even the World? How wonderful to have that dictatorial boot taken off the necks of men, women and children so that, perhaps, some help and empathy can again flow to them and not only cronies, sycophants and other vested interests. What a blessing.

When it comes down to individuals then I can understand loving kindness and harboring no malice towards them. However, this person has great responsibilities to the many that were clearly defined by an oath taken and in accord with the Preamble of our Constitution. He appears to be performing a selfish and detrimental act of belligerence and spite and heartless actions towards a majority of his fellow Americans.

If his time comes, I have no problem with that at all and my empathy is for those who have been ravaged, lied to, scapegoated, denied, marginalized, etc., but a toxic and harmful individual.

actually, why shouldn't he get sick? He's done nothing to prevent it from spreading, he'smore than willing to contaminate others, for the 'optics'. Cause and effect/infect. The nature of things.
