That may be it. Make sure you don't use words with more than 3 syllables if you want these

That's a load of BS which fails to hit "plausible" for purposes of plausible deniability.

Republicans are unfit for any office of trust. This brush is not too broad.

GOP anti-education idiots to understand anything.

(13,776 posts)3. He had to deliberately avoid legitimate advice in order to not know that
How Trumpian to think that just because he didnt know it, it was news to everyone else.

It could well be true.
Maybe Fox hasn't bothered to mention that fact.

Most viral infections can be spread by people without, or before they exhibit, symptoms.
This isn't unique to CV19!
What a dolt!

you hadn't heard it on the news, or hadn't read about it, or researched it... how could you NOT know this unless you're a total fucking moron?

KY_EnviroGuy
(14,490 posts)22. No excuse for a low-info governor, but this is on Trump as well.
Any national leader with half a brain would have insisted ALL governors were thoroughly briefed on all aspects of this disease months ago.
Instead, almost the entire GOP political class let their "business as usual" and "let the markets take care of everything" mentality run the show from the beginning.
Hell, I'm just a dumb-ass retired out-of-date old fart from the South that knew COVID-19 is contagious prior to the infected showing symptoms since back in February. It was all over the news.
As we've known for many years, Republicans simply cannot and will not govern AND will not listen to any information from outside their right-wing bubble.
