The Trump Administration: A Clusterfuck in the Making

Whoever drew the short straw, it’s your turn to clamber up the mountain and kick the oracle in the nuts.

Yesterday, the @GOP account on Twitter posted something about coronavirus and I replied to the effect of, “Are you going to use prayer or tax cuts to fix this?” I thought I was being funny :frowning:

I’m doubting that Grenell ever stepped foot into his new office during his ‘tenure’ as DNI. Not sure if that’s a tie, or a new record for the Trump administration.

Musical chairs, with Yakety Sax. Where’s Benny Hill to at least make this make some sense?

Or at least make it funny.

Individual 1 calls coronavirus a Democratic hoax.

It must be awesome to just use words without regard for their actual meaning.

Kobe could.

hoax
/hōks/

noun
noun: hoax; plural noun: hoaxes

a humorous or malicious deception.
“they recognized the plan as a hoax”

an action or event that might make a president look incompetent, ignorant or adversely affect his re-election.
“the Democrat Party created a virus hoax to make me look bad”

First: Senate Republicans pushed back on Ratcliffe last year, and I don’t see any reason why they wouldn’t feel the same this year. What’s Trump going to do – back their primary opponent? We’re deep into primary season – it’s a little late for that.

And apparently, if Ratcliffe is not approved then Grennell just stays in the job for another 7 months; and Trump prefers “Acting” cabinet heads. So Trump may not care whether Ratcliffe is approved or not.

So Grennell is still wondering where his office is, is my guess. I know his real title. ‘Groom of the stool’.

So you’re saying a county other than the United States.

Everybody relax! According to Tan the Conman, COVID-19 is just a hoax from the Democratic Party. i guess that means 85,229 people really did not get sick, 2,924 peole did not really die, and my wife is not stuck in Korea.

More nonsense from TtC:

Well, what do you know? There is a silver lining to this cloud!

But, never fear! Although COVID-19 is a hoax, Trump says he’s ordering ‘a lot of different elements of medical’ to deal with coronavirus.

Did you get that? “A lot of different elements of medical”. Keep up the good work, my hero! [Mr. Subliminal]You piece of shit![/Mr. Sublimial]

“I’ve been getting great results from the standpoint of medical. I’ve been getting calls from top doctors, they have tears in their eyes, they say “Sir, three years and one month ago we never though a president could do so much in terms of coronavirus as you have”.”

The actual quote - “We’re order a lot of supplies,” Trump told reporters on Friday. “We’re ordering a lot of, uh, elements that, frankly, we wouldn’t be ordering unless it was something like this. But we’re ordering a lot of different elements of medical.”

…“We’re order a lot of supplies”… Let’s see. It was paper towels for a hurricane. I suppose his administration has put Kimberly-Clark on red alert.

Kleenex. Prepare for a lot of Kleenex.

A Democratic hoax that needs a lot of “different elements of medical”. Right.

That profoundly stupid piece of shit could fuck up a rock fight.

Wonder if Trump diverts health resources away from blue states…

Why would Trump need to do that?* The virus is going to miraculously go away on its own. He’s said so himself.

*Granted, though, taking money from and fucking over blue states seems to be a source of satisfaction for Trump and his base.

Remember: Republicans are ALWAYS the REAL victims! :rolleyes:

Modi and the Don.

I saw this, too, and despaired. I think all SCOTUS needs to do to make this the law of the land is decline to take up any appeal. The whole thing happened with barely a whisper.

We fiddle while Rome burns. It’s horrible to watch.

Yep, just as soon as the weather warms up.

Luckily we are once again going into the hottest year in recorded history! Those pesky germs will melt like bubbles in the torrid air.
