Excellent article. Should be required reading for errybody. But one of the more interesting tidbits contained therein for me...

So, Smellyanne's grandad was a mobster named Jimmy “The Brute” DiNatale, an "associate" of "Little Nicky" Scarfo, head of the most powerful mob family in Philadelphia. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

By "data," he meant two of Eric's Crayon drawings. One was of a happy sun with a smiley face and people frolicking underneath on a beach.The other was of a snowman surrounded by a pile of dead bodies.

The good rural volk -- sorry, "real Americans" -- gather in the churches where Jesus protects them from the virus.The evil untermensch -- sorry, again, "whores and Demorcrats" -- gather in crowded hellish landscapes, like New York City, to hate the little Lord Jesus and have gay sexy time and eat babies. The virus hates that, just like the sweet little Baby Jesus does!

If I visit his grave site, I'll make sure to eat some undercooked chicken about eight to 12 hours beforehand, to give Dear Leader the fitting tribute he so justly deserves.

Pelosi was dead on the money--every road leads to Putin. Who gains in making America break? Putin. Just Putin. The 1% hated the black president so much they picked a washed-up reality show TV phuck who went bankrupt 5 times, blew through daddy's money, and openly admitted to jonesing for his daughter, grabbing pussies, and mocking the handicapped? The installation of LordDampnut was the final chapter in "The Myth of American Exceptionalism." I'm old but I never thought I'd see any leader worse than phucking RM Nixon and Ronnie Rayguns. Phuck me walking backwards. Are we Russia yet?

Donald "Sexual Predator" Trump is now the President in charge of death. He encourages it. Not life. Death. His total incompetence only leads to death. He wants to get reelected? For anyone to vote for him in the 2020 elections would be the same as a deer asking for an extension to hunting season.

Who and what he was has always been so apparent to most people. I am still in shock that this country has a cohort so venal and racist that they would put him within a mile of the levers of power. His desperation for attention and vengeance and, of course, abuse of the limited power he already had, made him a terrifying choice for our country and its survival.

Same for this Alaska/Washington SuzyQ! Then I feel guilty for loving it.

And while these so-called "thot processes" were rambling through his lonesome brain cells, he failed to notice the virus was doing just fine in countries like Australia, where it was blazing hot summer. Jenius!

That’s a good one. And true also too.

"Wishful thinking" is it exactly. When that reporter asked him, "what do you say to people who are scared?" and he said, "I say you're a bad reporter," it was because he thinks it's a crime to report bad news. He thinks if the press had just pushed the "gone in April" line and ignored the death toll, everyone would be happy, or dead. And that would be fine. After all, wishful thinking's always worked for him, why shouldn't it work for everybody?
