WASHINGTON, D.C.(The Borowitz Report)—Trying out a new line of attack against the former Vice-President, Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Joe Biden could never have a pandemic as big as his.

“Biden was Vice-President for eight years and had all the time in the world to have a pandemic,” Trump said. “Where was his pandemic?”

By contrast, Trump asserted, “In just a few months, I’ve built the biggest pandemic this country has seen in a hundred years.”

He needs to have the biggest something (small hands, you know), so now he can boast about the biggest pandemic in the world. Might make him eligible for the Noble Prize for Stupidity.

This would be great satire if it wasn't so close to the truth.
