Ever since President Donald Trump announced his positive COVID-19 diagnosis, members of his White House and campaign orbit have been dropping into self-quarantine like flies.
Covidfefe!
“Here’s the circle of infection so far…”
Chief Brody: “You’re gonna need a bigger circle.”
From Typhoid Mary then to Covid Donnie now. Kinda makes sense.
Except that Mary never really believed that she was sick.
And they imprisoned her.
Donnie knows he’s sick but doesn’t give a shit about spreading it.
And we haven’t imprisoned him…YET.
Needs strings and pushpins and a few senators to be named later.
I’d settle for just one in particular.
“Circle”
Dante comes to mind
A whole new level of Hell is under construction at this time.
“Awaiting occupancy.”
Trump would understand that phrase.
“It’s alive!”

Or would that be effluence, as in effulenza?
We’ll never hear about them - McConnell has put a lid of silence on further Senatorial announcements of confirmeds.
Keep an eye on the obituaries
I would be interested in a forensic sequence analysis of the one or more strains of coronavirus infecting all these people. It could go a long way toward a better understanding of who has been exchanging bodily fluids (in the form of aerosolized droplets exhaled by the various characters in this drama) with whom. It could be the metaphorical nail in the coffin of de Groper in Chief. (or let him off the hook, that’s a beauty of science.)
If there are any votes in the Senate that require in-person voting, absences will be noticed. If any Covid-positives enter the Senate and are later discovered, sooner or later they will be censured, at a minimum.
I’m sure the democrats will force a quorum call every day.
Yeah, like rand paul was.
Censured in January 2021 by a majority Dem Senate.
That majority shall come to pass.
Then let the asshole(s) run for reelection in 2022 with that on their record.
Censures mean about as much as the grade school principal solemnly intoning “this will go down on your permanent record.”
I have some lovely 1-1/4" pre-tallowed hemp* “string,”** if you’re interested.
*Organically grown. **Pre-coiling upon request.
Now now, we do things by the book around here. First the guilty verdict, then the fair trial, then the hanging.
Now they need to add those who caught COVID from each of the people on that infographic. They’ll need a really big piece of paper.
Let’s start with Kellyanne’s wayward daughter.
He could be exiled to an island in New York Harbor for the remainder of his days.
Unfortunately, all of the islands formerly used for quarantine have shut down.
Others, like Rikers, still have facilities suitable for the purpose, however.
