I haven’t once heard Biden say “it’ll go away like magic”, or “I don’t want my numbers going up” or “inject bleach”. Gorrell, you’re not even trying anymore. #SAD
If Gorrell was forced to only draw the truth he’d have an attack (I don’t think that you could call it a “heart attack” since he doesn’t have such an organ).
What WAS Trump’s Covid-19, actually? To ignore it, claim it would disappear, and then say “it is what it is” when confronted with terrifying (to most normal human beings) statistics about thousands of dead and suffering?
And THAT’S the biggest part of the reason Trump’s “COVID TEAM” refused to show/share anything they’d done with the incoming Biden administration. They didn’t want the bad press when the big nothing they’d accomplished was revealed.
Pasted on top of this donkey with hand over his heart holding a piece of paper:

What exactly was the previous guy’s policy? He had no covid plan. He didn’t used the pandemic playbook that the previous administration, which included Vice President Joe Biden, gave to the Trump administration as part of the transition. He refused to lead, and instead left it to states to fight amongst themselves to secure masks and ppe. He refused to set an example by wearing a mask and because he and his followers didn’t take the pandemic seriously, we never got the virus under control, and at one point a 9/11’s worth of Americans were dying every single day.
If Trump had the focus that the Biden administration does, there likely would not have been a Biden administration. I think that’s what really sticks in the craw of many on the Right.
The imitation I see going on here is the Biden’s unpreparedness for the easily predictable surge in wannabe immigrants. But they are working on it, and unlike the prior administration, they’re trying to help, not harm. This is more difficult: Building requires planning, thoughtful behavior, tools, experts… Destruction requires nothing that you can’t do with a big hammer.
Had tRump demonstrated any leadership in the COVID crisis he’d have been re-elected. tRump FAILED, and got booted out. Biden is getting the job done in just 2 short months.
This toon is an obvious lie. “Operation Warp Speed” was a success. But the blatant lies and incompetence of the former guy is very well documented. It breaks my heart to read such haplessness, such an utter inability to manage the pandemic.
But what the liar Gorrell is also trying to portray is to bring out Joe Biden’s plagiarism of Neil Kinnock’s 1987 speech. It probably cost him the presidency then. Today, Kinnock himself says Joe’s an honest guy. Which he is.
The sick irony is that Joe’s use of a really stirring speech without attribution is used to explain a lie about the supposed pandemic “plan” that the former guy had. It’s like the plan to reform healthcare finance. No such plan ever existed.
But Joe’s indiscretion thirty years ago pales in comparison to the over 30,000 outright lies the former guy told during his time in office.
So, do all of the MAGA maskless anti-vaccine lemmings out there realize that Donnie and Melania quietly got their shots as soon as it became available in January? Strange how Fox News never reported on it, did they?
Oh come on Bob. Trump’s COVID policy ended the day of the election. That is all it was there for – to get votes. The press conferences? – where to show case DJT, front and center. Operation Warp Speed? Trump may have signed off, but that was the effort of the medical/scientific experts that DJT ignored. If were up to Trump, we’d only have oxychloroquine, injectable disinfectant and bright lights that we could put inside our bodies.
I do not believe that it is possible for an empath such as Joe Biden to copy the sociopathic disdain Donald Trump has for any human being that is not Donald Trump.
Yeah, sure.As if someone wants to plagiarize an idiot. But if Biden was to follow Trumpie’s lead, all he’d need do was “do nothing” (of course it would be hard to top killing 450,000+ of your own Countrymen and getting away with it. That’s Donnie’s legacy.)

Biden inherited no vaccine distribution plan:

What is your definition of plagiarism? He gave Trump some credit for the vaccine itself:
“I think the administration deserves some credit getting this off the ground with Operation Warp Speed,” Biden said.

but that doesn’t erase the fact that over half a million Americans died from Trump’s ‘Covid policy’
