NAVARRO: You know that was tongue in cheek. Come on now. Come on now. That was tongue in cheek, please.

The problem, Petey, is that when your boss is full of shit 100% of the time, it's hard to tell which bullshit is meant to be serious and which is supposed to be "tongue-in-cheek,"

Especially now that the death toll is up to 40 9/11s.

Tongue in cheek. So, the president is making light of 120k deaths due to his lack of action?

I wonder why Gyna decided to warn their mortal enemy taiwan (7 total covid 19 deaths) but not to warn us. maybe the party of personal responsibility needs to find somebody else to blame

Well of course joking about slowing down testing is considered a light moment. These are the people that are okay with the slaughter of six year olds in their school and locking kids in cages; 120,000 dead Americans is a real knee slapper.

I know there is no point to this question but why would he need wait hours to be rescued? ? Who was coming to get him and how? I hate him so much.
