Yeah, that magic postcard was quite a bang … genius!

I wonder how much lip balm Pence and the senior staff plow through each day.

I am so effing sick of these people.

If it weren’t for Fauci up there on the stage, I wish C19 would just sweep through the whole group. And then the group could go over to Hannity’s house for a hang.

No surprise that you heard it first on Bullshit mountain.

They’ll never follow up with the WHO, but now all the Stepford trumpettes will be repeating this as reality until they drop dead from Covid-19.

In January, WHO warned that this was a worldwide pandemic emergency. Fat Ass kept golfing and having rallies with his thumb up his ass for another month and a half.

A conservative friend was telling me this the other day – putting huge amount of blame on the head of the WHO who he said advised against any travel bans, and who he thinks was paid off by China to say this. It was a window into the argument coalescing on the right into how to defend Trump. I just couldn’t get my head around how a global pandemic could be the fault of recommendations of one guy.

“It will be gone like a miracle in the warm weather in April” sounds like the kind of thing WHO would say.

So the new line from the America first and only crowd is…the globalists who long to control our Lives and/or precious bodily fluids should have exercised more control over our lives and fluids?

“Literally at the time that President Trump set up the coronavirus task force in January and suspended all travel from China, just days before that, the World Health Organization was continuing to diminish the threat of coronavirus and its impact in China.”
