Another WTF!"! Trump Moment

“There has been so much unnecessary death in this country. It could have been stopped and it could have been stopped short, but somebody a long time ago, it seems, decided not to do it that way. And the whole world is suffering because of it.”

— President Trump, at his coronavirus briefing.

they were going to be ZERO cases in a few days.

The Dumpster mouth told me so.

Then he said we should investigate injecting bleach into our bodies.

and shouted "Look in the mirror, a$$hole!"

He's intent on blaming the Chinese, though. I prefer to think of them as the first victims of a horrible illness who were caught even more unaware than the rest of us because they didn't have the excuse of watching other countries and lie about how they were going to go from 15 patients to 0 in no time.

If we had an Official US Court Jester, he or she would say:

"Ah, your Majesty, 'twas thee and not so very long ago, when thou were fab and oranger!"

What next , he'll accuse Democrats of laundering money for some other country's leader, or will it be he accuses Biden of spying on him, which makes you wonder what he was doing when he accused Obama of doing that. Or could he accuse Democrats of trying to bribe a Supreme Court Justice, or threaten one.

...until he needs to pass the blame.

Then he's powerless to change something "done long time ago" so can only point fingers.
