What kind of F-ing leader says “I hope” at the end of that statement? Dear Lord he has no clue what to do.

How is someone so delusional still in office? He will never deal with this crisis in a serious way as long as he believes something so ridiculous. We can't afford to have someone who completely rejects truth and science leading this country. He needs to go now!

murdering blowhard.

His delusions of grandeur are destroying the people, the environment, the country.

His capabilities don't reach the level of mediocrity much less competence.

He's a tool of hostile foreign governments and the tool of equally rabid right-wing ideologues.

His ego-driven, unstable personality has damaged American jurisprudence for decades to come.

His grasping need to be worshipped has fed the flagrant anti-intellectualism that infects America.

His depraved indifference to life, all life, outside his own, has resulted in decisions that have poisoned the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the ground we all walk on.

He is a fool and a charlatan.

He is a corrosive force with an insatiable appetite for tearing apart everything he touches.

His mockery of all things decent and good brings nothing but shame to the country.

He is arrogant without reason to be and he has been elevated beyond ability.

He is rot.

He is decay.

He is but a symptom of the pernicious ideology of white supremacy - made all the more fatal because of the office he holds.

His narcissistic messiah complex destroys the very freedoms he claims to cherish.

He is a liar, a buffoon, and a coward.

Unfit, unbearable, and unrepentantly indifferent to the world around him and the suffering he has caused.

From post No. 10, above:

Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1

Trump: "I think we're going to be very good with the coronavirus. I think that, at some point, that's going to sort of just disappear, I hope."

Fox: "You still believe so, disappear?"

Trump: "Well, I do."

to the whole list of statements he's made about COVID. It is a close duplicate to one he's made before.

"we're going to be very good with the coronavirus"

He must have said a hundred times that we are the best in the world at dealing with coronavirus, perhaps going back at least to February.

Another attempt to rewrite history to save himself from responsibility.

I've seen some thread titles about it, assuming it was just the old news of him saying that months ago (to point out his inaccurate predictions), but then I saw your post which mentioned NEW!

That stupid, orange shit!

Once every American gets it and we have over 2 million dead, it will go away.

serve as head of state. I am certain that his progressive cognitive impairment was common knowledge among the GOP senators who recently voted to retain him in office after he was impeached.
