Overheard at the White House in recent days 1. “Fine, smart guy, YOU tell him his CV19 test result.” 2. “If Pence dies, we’ll just prop up the body. Nobody’ll know the difference.” 3. “Uhhh… aw fuck. Uh oh, I gottta pen mark. Anybody got any white stuff?” 4. “The stock market will zoom again, bigly! It’ll be a miracle!” 5. “We have the best coronavirus. It’s perfect. No one can beat our coronavirus.” 6. “Hey, if all those old guys are wiped out, won’t that save Social Security?” 7. “Can’t we just completely quarantine California? They weren’t going to vote for me anyway.” 8. “Putin on line one.” 9. “Please, please, let me out of this madhouse!” 10. “It’s just the sniffles, I’m OK” 11. “Donald, quit sneezing into your tie.” 12. I think the Dems released this virus during the election season. ---

I’m just saying we put Obama back in for like two or three months to get things back on track. We can tell Trump he’s due for a vacation and send him off to play golf.” I’ll pass. ---
