Still treating Covid-19 as a PR problem. Photo-op with Covid-19 survivors and hawking risky untested drugs.

Of course, Little Marco is caught between a rock and a hard place.

A criminally immoral President, a criminally immoral Governor, and a criminally immoral fellow Senator.

Who to kowtow to?

Hey, Guardians of Plutocrats, Perverts, and Pederasts: it’s a lot late to remember that omg, we believe in state’s rights, in 50 little laboratories of democracy, and the rest of your hypocritical bullshit.

He didn’t learn any lesson.

We fucking told you so.

It’s April now, but November is coming.
