"My heart goes out to Covid."
Last week, President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for the coronavirus. Democrats quickly deployed their bullhorns.
“If President Trump can’t be out there on the campaign trail for the next two weeks, then he is going to rely on his surrogates and unfortunately, one of his surrogates is Vladimir Putin,” Sen. Chris Murphy told CNN. “So, unfortunately, you are likely going to see this campaign ramped up by Russia over the next few weeks to try to substitute for the president’s absence on the campaign trail.”
Senate minority leader Charles Schumer said the plan to hold hearings for President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett was unfeasible. Schumer also demanded isolation for Barrett and “anyone she was in contact with.”
Over in the House, Michigan Democrat Rashida Tlaib proclaimed that the president “only cares about himself and his life, NOT those around him or the people he took an oath to protect. Too many lives lost because of his deadly lies.” Last year, it might be recalled, Tlaib crowed, “We are going to impeach this motherfucker!”
Donald Trump “knows better than anyone he shouldn’t be president,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in 2016, and last year she derided “his own insecurity as an imposter.” After the president tested positive for the virus, Pelosi told reporters, “I have concerns about the test because obviously the tests that are happening at the White House are not as accurate as they should be.”
Stephanie Ruhle of MSNBC told the Speaker she was “second in line for the presidency” and asked whether the White House had contacted “contacted you about the continuity of government?” Pelosi responded “that is an ongoing- not with the White House but with the military, quite frankly, in terms of some officials in the government.”
Joy Reid of MSNBC, a former press aide for the Obama campaign, wondered if Trump, who “lies so much,” is faking his test “to get out of the debates?” Over on CNN, Don Lemon proclaimed the president’s “own dereliction” was to blame for his condition.
“So President Trump and the First Lady have COVID. Man, anyone else just in a really, inexplicably good mood this morning?” That was Emily Cassel, editor of City Pages, owned by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. “I think I speak for everyone when I say that it would be insanely funny if he died of the coronavirus,” wrote Cassel, who found company in professional entertainers such as comedian Paul Tompkins.
“Wishing harm, sickness or death on someone, even a bad person, is petty & small,” Tompkins wrote, “BUT: it is genuinely & extremely funny that Trump got COVID. It’s objectively funny. He downplayed it & mishandled it & thousands of people died. Now he has it. It’s funny!”
Filmmaker Michael Moore (Sicko) was in a more reflective mood. “My thoughts and prayers, too, are with Covid-19,” Moore tweeted. Comedian Chris Rock took up the theme on Saturday Night Live.
“President Trump’s in the hospital from COVID and I just want to say my heart goes out to Covid,” said Rock, adding, “I think Joe Biden should be the last president ever. I mean, do we even need a president president?” Jim Carrey played Biden, who pauses Trump with a remote and says “Let’s bask in the Trumplessness,” which is not a new idea.
Back in 2017, comedian Kathy Griffin thought it was funny to posed with a mock severed head of Donald Trump. Last week, after Melania Trump’s positive test, Griffin wrote, “You may want to quarantine until after Christmas, sweetheart.” Comedian David Cross was “Sending thoughts and prayers out to Melania’s trainer,” and comic Whitney Cummings added, “I don’t get how Melania got it, she’s been social distancing from Trump since they got married.”
Actor Cary Elwes wondered “How fake is it now?” and Rob Reiner chimed in with “That damn hoax.” For Bette Midler, “Timing’s so interesting. I guess Trump’s quarantining will mean no rallies, and no more debates. Convenient.” And so on.
“Good Morning Britain” host Piers Morgan found it “interesting to see those who’ve spent the last few years screaming that Trump’s an uncaring, heartless empathy-devoid b*stard now spewing their gleeful joy that he & his wife have a deadly virus. They’re no better than the man they loathe.” In reality, the responses confirm Trump’s judgment that these are horrible people and sick people.
Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), spreading worldwide since 2016, has now spiked to a tertiary stage. Festering ignorance and malice produce cognitive dissonance and uncontrollable hatred, with no cure in sight. On the other hand, Dr. Qanta Ahmed expects President Trump’s “full and complete recovery” for three reasons.
“His disease was detected very early due to the frequent testing he receives,” Dr. Ahmed explained, “he has access to extraordinary medical care and experimental treatments as announced, including receiving the drug Regeneron; and apart from COVID-19, he has been reported to be in good overall health.”
President Trump could be released from the Walter Reed Medical Center as early as Monday, Dr. Sean Conley told reporters on Sunday. “I’d like to reiterate how pleased we all are with the president’s recovery,” Conley said. “This president is going to recover, we are highly confident of that.”
And their reactions will be even worse win he wins re-election.
It will be EPIC.
The only reason he was able to get such great treatment is because of how well he handled this virus. Early on he pushed for vaccines and treatments to be fast tracked.
Trump should use the opportunity to point out that he’s a 74-year-old man and got over it in a couple days, which is further evidence that he was right all along. Time for the country to get back to normal.
In 2015 the Left was killing the country with Political Correctness. Now the Left is dying from all their layers of hate,the Trump karma is awesome.
It should be said over Trump...this is a guy who has never used any cocaine or weed in his life, never smoked tobacco, and is alcohol-free for his entire life. Those three elements might give a 74-year old guy a slight edge.
It would give him a BIG edge.
“DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE!...”
“DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE! DIE, TRUMP, DIE!...”
I hope all of their heads explode into teeny tiny communist meatballs when he wins in November.
In fact, give 'em a megaphone.
I have noticed my Liberal/Left friends and acquaintance have Trump on the brain all the time. Nothing is discussed without Trump entering into it somehow. I think they consider Trump, and that Trump matters, more often than I do.
I guess that is what comes from having ABC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/NBC/NPR getting into your psyche every time you’re looking for “news”.
If there was any doubt about how deranged the Democrats are, the comments dispel all doubts. Murphy should get a visit from the SS; that speech is NOT protected.
As for the other a$$holes, I have no use for them. This Democrat virus is owned by them. In the previous administration, Fauci gave China a grant to develop a virus. Now, the Democrat virus is punishing us.
