Trump's Ego Is So Over-Inflated That He Thinks He Can Control the Virus

His predictions have been wrong 100% of the time. Badly wrong. And yet, he continues to make stupid predictions about the future, based on nothing but his vain hopes.

The COVID-19 virus, like the honey badger, don't care what Trump wants.

I think a lot of the general public just can't accept the reality of all of this. Life may never be "normal" again. I'm struggling with adapting to that reality myself.

He takes pride in being ignorant.

"He thinks too little. Such men are dangerous." (apologies to Willie the Shake - Julius Caesar Act 1, scene 2, 190–195.)

I mentioned in another thread, that a group of mostly republican woman who seemed to vote for trump seem to be shifting some. Several are laughing about the funny 'Lysol Jesus' clip.
