Trump assumes we are cartoon-strip dogs. That's why he is continually yelling "SQUIRREL!"

any time someone starts asking "nasty" questions about his total failure to effectively deal with this pandemic.

His latest "squirrel" is his directive to the CIA to investigate whether China and the WHO "hid" the existence or severity of the coronavirus threat. But, any distraction will do. If these "investigations" aren't sufficient, maybe we'll just invade some small country---or nuke a big one.

The important thing for Donald is that he not be held responsible for the tens of thousands of Americans---so far---who have died because of his arrogant ignorance.

NOTHING gets better until Trump is gone.

Mid-October. It would solve a lot of problems for Trump and the Republican leadership.

That's why he's constantly coming up with failed business after failed business. He wants that "get out of jail free" escape from yet another failed venture.

He must think that we're living in a sitcom and that he can get a lecture and a kiss and things will be back to normal next week.

But that won't work this time.
