Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) lavished praise on Donald Trump’s (widely panned) handling of the coronavirus pandemic on Friday, declaring him to be the “greatest testing President God has ever created” in an awkward tweet.

The GOP lawmaker’s outlandish claim was made in defense of Trump, who is receiving ongoing criticism over the lack of adequate testing in the U.S. for the virus that has killed more than 37,000 nationwide. Public health experts say a vast increase in testing is essential to slowing its spread.

1. Would a comma make things better?

Asking for the grammatically challenged.

Maybe Gaetz is still wearing the gas mask and he just missed hitting the ,.

3. A coma, yes!

Oh, sorry, you said comma...

4. 😁

5. Not Really, Sir

It is straight and proper English so far as it goes. Just awfully poor word order which conveys a meaning in advance of an important element of the 'thought' he meant to convey.

8. that

If he used “that” it would have been more better.

Maybe “who” but that might confuse the cult.

[The Magistrate]

12. Exactly, Sir

Anything to break up the pairing.

10. Kind of like this?:

"The colt dragoons were guns carried by soldiers with stocks locked into their butts converting them to rifles."

11. Aiming must have been really difficult.

[The Magistrate]

13. Excellent, Ma'am

My hat is off to you!

[Ilsa]

17. It's an old, classic one. I think it was taken from

a history textbook decades ago and quoted in a grammar textbook. Wish I could take credit for writing it as an illustration of misplaced modifiers.

14. Gun butt sex made the soldiers into rifles?

[Ilsa]

18. Truly, a good reason for

"Don't ask, don't tell" about your kinky sex!

2. He's testing us all right

6. DJT and Matt are the perfect example of

praying because of someone, not FOR someone.

7. That's just nauseating.

What that toady neglects to mention, of course, is what really matters is the number of tests relative to the population. The US has tested 10,815 people per million population. Germany has tested 20,629 per million. Iceland has tested 120,416 per million (granted, Iceland doesn't even have a million people but they obviously have recognized that testing as many people as possible is essential). https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

9. Yep

But numbers are hard

[badhair77]

15. No need to capitalize the P in president. Doing so transforms it into part of a proper noun.

[DFW]

16. I can't help but wonder what a "testing president" is

If he's such a testing president, could someone please test him for dementia and serious psychosis while we're in such a testing mood?

19. He's As Crazy As His Dumb Idol

Crazy is on parade now. The sad positive out of this is he is encouraging the inevitable thinning of his foaming at the mouth super fans.

This is such a pivotal election, it could be our last chance to avoid a long, dark period.

Wisconsin gave me hope. There are a Hell of a lot more of us than them. We need to vote!

If we show up we can win....not just over Chitolini but down ballot races, down to School Boards.

This is Crazy vs Non Crazy. Now what that evil idiot does if he is beaten soundly like Goldwater? He will cry foul you can bet on it, he may have to be physically removed.

20. Just drop the "has"
