They could go batshit crazy and apoplectic over the four CIA people martyred in Benghazi. Yet, they don't say a word about the 100,000 dead from the pandemic?

*that* is what caused them to lose their damn minds.

everything piece of crap they spew is just a cover story because they can't just come out and say they want a racist, sexist white man as president.

the value of tragedies to the conservative is political. It is an issue, tool, propaganda campaign to use.

Happens on your watch, minimize and downplay it, blame someone else.

Happens on the otherside's watch it is a gift from heaven.

whatever the fuck a Democratic President will do can never be criticized in any meaningful way, shape, or form by these asshats. They'll bellow, to be sure, but FUCKING NONE of their concerns will hold any merit. Feels nice.
