Some Southern states have followed Trump’s advice on re-opening. How’s that working out?

Yeah. When you have done your job well people give you a certain amount of leeway

Trump playing Lucy about when Covid is going to vanish on the other hand has trouble being viewed as anything other than a clown.

According to Mary Trump, Donnie will likely hire someone to reopen the schools for him.

In Germany, Denmark, and Norway, they actually squashed the rate of infection, you stupid Cheesy Poof™!

His state also probably doesn’t need that 8% of federal funding given to schools as badly as other states, especially in the South, but yeah, Cuomo isn’t afraid of the big bad wolf. He’s made his house out of bricks. It can withstand most of tRump’s bloviating bullshit.

Cuomo rocks. He is great at taking shots at F*ck L’Orange in a dismissive “don’t waste my time with that crap” way that must gnaw at Trump.

“In Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and many other countries, SCHOOLS ARE OPEN WITH NO PROBLEMS because TRUMP is not their leader.”

Talk about chutzpah. He’s like a drunk who left the stove on and burned down the house and now it’s pouring rain and he’s yelling at his family, “In all the other houses on our street ROOFS ARE ON WITH NO PROBLEM.”

Trump toady Ron DeSantis ordered schools to fully reopen campuses. Most of the big Florida school districts said no thank you, not until it is safe. It seems there really is little either the little weasel or agent orange can do to local school districts.

Week began with trashing Fauci, another made for prime-time ‘Stupid Boy Rambling in the Roses’, Ivanka the irrelevant, promoting a new farting game with a can of beans and an off-the-rails campaign pushing a “Who ya gonna fire!” bumper sticker. And as the virus goes through the roof—again—the Village Idiot wants to defund schools! Normal week for this WH…so far.

President, Governors, and Mayors can say what they want. Parents are not going to send their children into an unsafe environment. When the schools are safe, parents will send the kids. January 2021 looks about right.

If Agent Orange wants to use other nations as an example, how about Israel after his buddy Netanyahu opened up their schools?
