ROME (AP) — With confirmed coronavirus cases in the U.S. hitting 5 million Sunday, by far the highest of any country, the failure of the most powerful nation in the world to contain the scourge has been met with astonishment and alarm in Europe.
All empires end … ours just ended in spectacular idiocy.
Can you be ordered to take the COVID- 19 test?
And their pizza is better too. Dang.
Not with a bang, but with a wanker.
The most amazing part of this is that all these cases and deaths and suffering were deliberate policy decisions by Trump, who takes no responsibility at all.
I wouldn’t care at all if jerks like Julia Ferjo died of COVID, if only they didn’t pass it on to the equally stupid people in her classes and then to innocent people just trying to keep living their lives in the safest way possible right now. Ditto for the brain dead folks at Sturgis.
I guess I’m part of the world here in NYC.
Although there is another “A” word I was thinking of.
Anger.
Two words Europe: " travel ban".
Yes, he could because people like you really hate this country and what it once meant: not perfect but trying to be live up to its promise. Draping yourself in the flag and worshiping the Rump does not make you a patriot. It makes you a fascist.
The U.S. covid count is perhaps the most visible, but it’s not the only thing other nations are alarmed about.
I think that @evan’s comment was sarcasm.
It was. But I guess I’ll just delete it.
Snark and sarcasm are sometimes difficult to read.
I sometimes end my snarky comments with “…” or “…/s”. But then, I wonder if my snark is successful if I need to explain it.
Trump’s approval rating has gone up .
People are appreciating the tremendous job he’s doing!
I mean no disrespect for the wonderful people of Italy who have given so much to the world, but they have never been a model of good government, as even most Italians would admit. So when they look like a beacon of sound policy compared to the US, that is really saying something.
And Emperor Zero continues to diddle.
Our suicide rate is high compared to other wealthy nations even in normal times. Covid allows for passive, barely aware suicide without responsibility. The Republican death cult is largely to blame for all of it.
