Trump heading to Capitol Hill today to infect Senate Republicans



Garrett Haake ✔@GarrettHaake

President Trump is coming to the Hill today for lunch with Senate republicans, two sources tell @JulieNBCNews. GOP lunches have moved to the large Hart 216 hearing room, but this will be a very interesting test of social distancing for the Capitol.

On the Hill there aren’t any of the protections currently set up at the White House: no temperature checks, no coronavirus tests, mask-wearing is spotty and not enforced by anyone.

if his Senate minions take them.

It's a hilarious image. Trump passing out the pills and the look on the faces of the GOP asswipes as they struggle between dropping the pills and wanting to please Trump.

Oh, the quandary.

Yeah, yeah. Just enjoying the mental image.

Amen, Sister!


So around the middle of next month, things might look a bit different around Capitol Hill.

The notice that went out to Senate Republican offices about the lunch with Trump notes that the “buffet will open early at noon.”

their deaths will tie up the Senator Rotunda while they lie in state for a couple of weeks, but that shouldn't upset our Netflix schedules at all.
