    That disrepute halo has been evident ever since trump became a public figure, and to many who knew him before that. Why so many don’t see it or choose to ignore it is beyond my comprehension.

    He IS contagious. Mentally as well as (perhaps) physically… and maybe even morally, though it’s possible that he only attracts those who are already morally bankrupt. The mental part is pretty obvious from way over here: People who are somewhat intelligent somehow become convinced that working for him makes sense. Hint: The odds are that you will regret it.

    I believe that The Dotard is still sick and contagious with COVID-19 and that at this point he’s hopped-up on his favorite steroid. That stuff can make one feel like Superman, ahem!, for a while. But then one of these days he’ll just run out of gas and keel over. Donnie would MUCH prefer that, however, than having to face humiliation next month and then likely prison. He would at least get to die “with his boots on” and leave everyone in the lurch one final time.

    Should that occur, his funeral, and the eulogies, would certainly be “interesting.”

    Donald Trump may be the human equivalent of a rabid dog. Instead of hydrophobia, he has alethophobia: “A fear or dislike of the truth; an unwillingness to come to terms with truth or facts.”

    Long an endemic disease among humans, it has been amplified within Trump, who is the current autocratic super spreader through his tweets and rallies. It is a real pandemic, and increasing millions are infected. Herd immunity would be difficult or impossible to achieve without myriad casualties.

    Will there ever be therapy or medicine to combat it effectively? Unfortunately, it is a disease coupled with sentience, and thus clever in its resistance to control. Dr. Fauci could be as a Louis Pasteur in this matter, but the Disease embodied strives to discredit his efforts. Physical mitigation equipment is not available, unfortunately. Individual morality therapy can help, but results are undependable and often temporary across large populations. (— (—

    Yesterday Fauci confirmed the claim that Ol’ Punkinhead was no longer contagious. I presume that Fauci was presented with bona fide test results to evaluate in order to reach that conclusion.

    The only distance that will work for this orange disease is complete banishment from DC!

    How about banishment from the US and all other civilized countries? He could be a “passenger” on a large cargo ship that rarely makes port anywhere he would want to be.

    “Disreputable” is one of the milder terms I would apply to Donald J. Trump.

    I saw the presidential ( gag) advertisement with Fauci making a comment about the virus… I am not surprised he is upset SwampyDon is using him!

    Notice that some Republicans are trying to distance themselves from Trump… but it’s too late…

    POLL: AMERICANS THINK DONALD TRUMP IS A “HORRIBLE” “DISGUSTING” “PUTINESQUE” “ASS”

    They additionally think he’s a “racist,” “despicable,” “corrupt,” “antichrist.”
