"When we were in a task force meeting, the president said, 'Maybe this COVID thing is a good thing. I don't like shaking hands with people. I don't have to shake hands with these disgusting people,'" Troye, who was a top Pence COVID staffer, says in new @RVAT2020 video

1. you just know the feeling's mutual

...at this point.

Unbelievable contempt for the American people, and it's not an isolated incident.

Nobody hates Trump's base more than Trump.

Howard Stern has been trying to enlighten his audience about this too. It's true! They'd never get into Mar-A-Lago, not a chance.

3. To be fair, not having to shake hands with people is one of the upsides of the pandemic

Hate to take the Trump side on this, but I despise shaking hands and think it's fucking weird that it's still common at work. Like, why are we touching? No thank you. May the handshake be gone forever.

4. But I bet you don't think that the majority of people are "disgusting"--it's Trump's disdain

for anyone he feels is "below" him and that's the majority of American citizens in his view.
