Pelosi/Schumer letter to POTUS: “We are writing to request that you order flags to be flown at half staff on all public buildings in our country on the sad day of reckoning when we reach 100,000 deaths.”

1. I bet he won't do it...

5. But ... will he even read this letter?

Probably not!

2. Better: fly them upside down as a message of distress, distress he brought on!

3. They should start making plans for a...

"Trump COVID-19 Holocaust Museum and Monument", too.

That's one thing with Trump's name on it I could get behind.

To ensure that it's built, they could offer Orange Julius Caesar the gift shop (where, yes, mock bleach and aquarium cleaner will be sold) concession.

4. Fat chance. The POS wants to stage a huge military parade to honor himself, not commemorate

the dead. I commend Pelosi and Schumer for their sentiments, and for creating a difficult no-win political bind for Trump, but come on, guys, get real.

6. Trump's parade

7. They are 100% right about this

They are also being very smart, politically. They know IMPOTUS will never do that. It would bring attention to the fact that his maladministration is responsible for most of these deaths.

8. It would be an honorable gesture and the right thing to do.

I'm glad they made this request but I don't think any of us has illusions that it will happen.

9. Fat fuck will just sit there with his arms crossed, pouting in his full diaper

Piece of fucking shit...

10. Today he did order this to be done, CNN and other news has reported this evening

11. Looks like he's doing it

Of course he'll try to say it was his idea.
