Lissen up, libtards! Trump DOES rely on experts: Professor Sean “Stupidest Man on TV” Hannity, Dr. Laura “Hannity? Hold my beer/wine” Ingraham, Judge Jeannine Winebox Pirro, all experts in various important fields of … something.

On the plus side (so to speak): less than 48 hours after Moscow Mitch floated the “impeachment! So it’s the Demon-rats’ fault!” trial balloon, the Genocider-in-Chief denied that impeachment had any impact on his perfect response. He didn’t give himself a 12 out of 10 (in that particular statement), but you know he wanted to.
ETA: This was supposed to be a response to Thunderclap, not sure if it’s showing up that way.

With this perspective, it is now very easy to see how in plagues gone by the mob would invariably riot and take their wrath out on what ever convenient scapegoat was present, the Jews, the Roma, etc. etc…

Basically our whole society is mentally ill with Celebrity Derangement Syndrome and has been since, well, forever. Dr. Fauci is now a celebrity, ergo…

ETA: also goes a long way to explaining why millions of voters chose the fake businessman reality show star in 2016

Self absorbed assholes. They deserve to by sentenced to loading the bodies of the now 5000+ Americans that have died. That’s the least punishment I can think of. Being treated as terrorists would work as well.

(CNN) — Dozens of spring breakers from Texas boarded a plane for fun and came home with coronavirus.

About 70 people in their 20s chartered a plane from Austin, Texas, to Mexico for spring break two weeks ago. They went against the advice of White House officials who asked that people avoid gathering in groups of more than 10 and nonessential air travel.

Now 44 of those people have tested positive for coronavirus – all of them University of Texas at Austin students, a university spokesman told CNN on Wednesday.

Trump cultists do not understand how they function as the Brown Shirts did in Germany under Hitler.

First of all, Trump was contradicting Fauci.

Secondly, Trump is no longer contradicting Fauci.

WTF is wrong with these people?

Yes–or, as the Spaniards would do when they noticed that the indigenous people they’d enslaved to work in the fields and the mines died at distressingly high rates (from diseases they weren’t resistant to as well as to overwork), they’d say the Indians were just too weak to do what they had to do: something of a moral failing on the Indians’ part.

FFS. These morons would rather be LIED to than know their lives were in danger. And just this morning I saw the sales of guns/ammo was up.

Yes–this was/may still be(?) happening in some African countries during the most recent Ebola outbreak. Some of this was the result of a previous vaccination program that ended up killing some people because of a faulty vaccine.
