CNN Headline

[SCantiGOP]

Current story says: Trump concerned that aides contracting Corinavirus will undercut his message that the outbreak is waning.

Translation: trump very scared that if people who work for him die, it will be bad for him politically.

He is barely human.

[BigDemVoter]

1. I am a little ashamed to admit it.

But there ARE some people who work for the orange, pussy-grabbing nutcase whose deaths wouldn't disturb me one little bit.

[SoonerPride]

3. Just "some?"

I can’t think of anyone I would shed a tear over.

Maybe the cleaning staff and chefs.

[ProfessorGAC]

26. There Are Some That Just Work There

The entire upper echelon, I'm with you 100%. But, there are nonpolitical employees working there.
I'm hoping they stay healthy.

[lame54]

28. If they are still there after all we've seen from these...

Traitorous criminals
They are part of them now

[Lucinda]

35. Disagree.

Some would probably feel like they were deserting their country...and they also serve as witnesses to what actually happened. I suspect some are keeping our side informed.

[ProfessorGAC]

46. Pretty Weak!

At least half of everyone there is just a working stiff.
They're not power people. They're just earning a check.
We know how we get when a conservative says, if someone's job is lost, go get another job.
Now, it's OK to tell these people the same?
I simply don't believe they're all on it.
For one thing, with this maladministration, there's no plan. They're operating on the whims of the day.
Everyday workers probably nearly whiplash!

[burrowowl]

51. What chef, McDonalds!?

[Celerity]

4. why be ashamed? I doubt many in the US shed a tear when Reinhard Heydrich was assassinated in 1942

[czarjak]

33. I know a Bohunk Nazi. Unbelievable after what happened to their ancestors.

[JI7]

6. No need to be ashamed . These people work for him BECAUSE THEY AGREE with the fucked up things

he does . Especially the harm he causes the "those people" .

[DENVERPOPS]

19. No, not really.

Pity the staff. AND the reported number of Secret Service agents that have tested positive........

[JI7]

22. I agree about the SS agents and lower level staff but I was thinking more about the Stephen millers,

Mike Pences, Kellyanne Conway etc .

ANd this refers to a higher level person so they most likely agree with him.

[crickets]

34. Agreed. They work there regardless of administration changes. nt

[jrthin]

10. Let me put it this way, if something bad were to

happen I would send thoughts and prayers.

[Scarsdale]

32. I'd say "I really don't care. Do U?"

Especially if it happens to be the most deserving of them all. Donald "Lizard Eyes" tRump. Anyone in the grifting crime family would not bother me at all.

[MFM008]

11. and im barely ashamed

to agree with you.

[bdamomma]

29. wouldn't disturb me either

is McConnell included?

[TxVietVet]

43. The whole conservanazi party can die.

It wouldn’t bother me one little bit.

I’m doomed if I catch the virus due to my age and physical condition.

I would enjoy eternity in Hell if tRump💩 is in the cell next to me. 😆

[BlancheSplanchnik]

47. This comment captures my feelings about the subject, too.

Well said, and I wish you Health!

[Chemisse]

52. Just spare Dr. Fauci!

That's it, the only one in contact with this group of monsters whose health I care about.

[madaboutharry]

2. I don't think he is human at all.

I remember Tony Schwartz (author of The Art of The Deal), in the months leading up to the 2016 election, going on MSNBC and CNN with a look of panic in his eyes trying desperately to warn the county that Trump was nothing more than a dark void. He said that Trump had no soul.

[BComplex]

40. I never saw that, but I've heard he was in a panic about it.

So was I.

[lunasun]

5. Bad optics. Trump hates that more than he likes anyone there I'm sure.

[wnylib]

16. Optics are everything to him.

In fact, it's all he is. Nothing underneath the various images but a deep, dark hole.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

48. He makes my skin crawl. n/t

[sfstaxprep]

7. Jim Jones

He only cares that his grip on power is slowly fading, and though he does not realize or accept it quite yet, the end is near.

If they have but one life to give for him, then so be it.

[JI7]

8. I don't think Trump would feel sad if his own kids died

The sadness he would feel if he does feel sad would be if it was inconvenient to him in some way. For example if they died of covid 19 it would be sadness over what the OP says. That it would hurt him politically .

I don't think he would feel the usual parent/family/friend sadness if Ivanka died who is supposed to be his favorite. He likes her because of how she benefits him . He likes to show her off . But I don't think he would feel sad over losing someone he loved because I don't think he loves anyone (other than himself maybe and even then it's in a disgusting way).

I said before that Trump would easily sell out his kids including Ivanka to save his own ass if he ever got into legal trouble. He would easily have them go to prison for years or life if it meant saving his own ass.

[Permanut]

15. This times 1,000. n/t

[bdamomma]

30. I really think

he has shown many of us of his no empathy towards anything. He only cares about himself and money.

[Chemisse]

53. I really do agree. I've thought this about him too. n/t

[napi21]

9. Of course, he isn't worried about his staff. He's worried aboiut not winning the damn electioon!

I wonder how the 2 staffers that got the virus feel about his comments? I've got to believe if there were 2 cases in the WH, there will be more. I also believe those voters who he's worried about losing are already thinking, damn, if the WH can't be protected, what's that mean for us?

Looks like DT has finally run into something that doesn't care if he bad mouths it, likes about it, or throws a bunch of tantrums, it's the enemy that's more powerful than HIM!

[BComplex]

41. Exactly. The coronavirus is NOT afraid of him, unlike the republicans in the senate and house.

The coronavirus will not be intimidated by his "absolute rule". It is every bit as uncaring as he is.

[dem4decades]

12. He likes his staff that don't die of Covid.

[Chainfire]

13. While he may be human

He is not shackled by human emotions.

[LisaL]

14. I got news for him.

Outbreak is not waning.

[COLGATE4]

17. Not even close to "barely" human.

He's a walking, talking (more or less) lump of ego. Nothing more.

[rickyhall]

18. I hope Trump/McConnell get it.

[SCantiGOP]

20. And that one of them

coughs on Barr.

[bdamomma]

31. Lindsay

Graham too and all the traitors.

[Initech]

21. He does not care.

[C Moon]

23. If he takes advice from Putin, these aides will start falling out of windows.

[Baclava]

24. His infected staff makes his numbers look bad

[duforsure]

25. He will have others soon

Working to prevent the numbers from coming out any more. All while lying its safe and over now. Then reduce funding to anyone anywhere that doesn't help him hide the truth about this. He already has some Republican Governors doing this.

[lark]

27. Wrong - he is totally inhuman.

He has for the most part dropped his thin disguise of humanity and is now letting us peak to the vicious, hate filled & hated, stupid, profiteering, asshole he truly is. There isn't one shred of humanity in that ugly orange corpulent flabby body or shriveled by Adderall brain.

[Alwaysna]

36. Ever notice there hasn't been any stories about him interacting with "Melania's son"?

When other kids have grown up in the White House there were stories or pictures of the president just being a dad and playing with their kids like Obama or JFK.

[BComplex]

42. Melania and her son moved out, I believe. I don't think they live in the White House except on

certain occasions, from what I've been gathering.

[zentrum]

37. In fact, a killer.

[Texin]

38. He's not "barely human." He's not human at all. He's Satan's spawn.

[BComplex]

39. "His LIE that the outbreak is waning" would be more appropriate wording.

We need to call it what it is.

[lagomorph777]

44. You exaggerate. He is not "barely human."

He is not human at all.

[ClusterFreak]

45. If I could rec this thread a trillion times I would.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

49. He's an ammonia-based life form.

Completely foreign to human understanding.

[MH1]

50. I wouldn't even give him "barely".

I didn't read the other comments yet. I won't be surprised if at least one person already beat me to that statement.

[Beartracks]

54. Trump concerned reality will make it obvious he's lying. n/t
