There would be so much right in the world if trump could acquire this virus. Life is a school, and it teaches us lessons we don't always want to learn.

But we all learn some of 'em before we get out of here! And NOBODY gets out of here alive. Nobody.

Just saying. The Lord moves in mysterious ways.


God moves in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform;
He plants his footsteps in the sea,
And rides upon the storm.

Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never failing skill;
He treasures up his bright designs,
And works His sovereign will.

Hell, Paula White is right there. Can't she lay her hands all over poor Katie and transmit the healing power of the Lord?

Even if Katie recovers, I doubt that she will ever be clean enough to perform her duties around Pence.

We can't have her filthy pollution blemish Pence's Godly white purity.

54. Repeated exposures
Fri May 8, 2020, 04:35 PM
May 2020

Along with the Brazilian official whom Trump met with in March and wound up testing positive for the coronavirus, Trump has had his share of exposures to COVID-19. Yet Donald won't wear a mask or stop shaking hands to save his life. Could Donald be an asymptomatic super spreader? It might be prudent to consider relocating Donald to Typhoid Mary's old bunker on Brother Island in the East River, NYC.

55. Part of me wants to see Trump get the virus
Fri May 8, 2020, 04:39 PM
May 2020

An in-your-face moment. And if he has to be hospitalized I won't be sorry that I feel good about his suffering. Of course putting a nail in the meme it is all a hoax to his "die hard" supporters.

But I really hope he doesn't come down with it. Its a miracle he hasn't. Because can you imagine the sympathy wave that Fox News and other RW media would milk out of it. Poor poor Donnie. And, even as Democrats have been left in the dust on going low, Republicans have mastered the art of twisting everything and anything to message it in their favour.

I can see it now. QNnon and other groups saying he was purposely infected by Democratic deep state operatives. Deplorables will also praise his bravery and will say this is proof he was involved in fighting this crisis in an up close and personal way from day one. As well, any criticism of his handling of the pandemic, or for that matter ANY criticism about anything he has done, will be smeared as kicking someone when they are down. Unfair and callous. He'll probably get a bump from it.

I have a personal theory, shared by some others, that Trump is actually a silent carrier who has no symptoms. Other foreign reps have come down with it after WH meetings. Now THAT is a story I'd rather be true. and be revealed one day before November.

We could send them all to a close orbit of the Sun. The Sun's corona should be perfect for dealing with a coronavirus. (As long as they avoid Corona beer along the way). One orbit at about 250,000 miles should do it.

58. Dr. Fauci Quote
Fri May 8, 2020, 04:46 PM
May 2020

Speaking about the infectiousness of COVID-19, Dr. Fauci said: "One thing this virus has that's really different from so many other viruses that we have experience with, it has phenomenal capability and efficiency in spreading from person to person."

"This is a virus that spreads as easily as any virus that I've ever known, apart from maybe measles."
