The fuck-your-feelings, Hillary-has-Parkinson’s-Disease crowd of Trump social media warriors have become stern enforcers of online decency. They’re simply shocked—shocked, I tell you—that a president who has poured his boundless reservoir of contempt and cruelty on Gold Star families, POWS, minorities of every stripe, and the victims of police brutality isn’t being universally adored for his courage in the face of COVID.
I like presidents who weren’t infected, OK?
They can’t admit that Trump got COVID the old-fashioned way—by being a reckless, irresponsible, and utterly callous narcissistic dimwit willing to infect his family, his staff, his campaign, his followers, and damn near anyone else in order to gain even momentary political advantage. Trump supporters hoping to wage a war of Twitter shaming have come to the wrong place. This is a president who has never expressed a single moment of genuine sympathy for the families of over 205,000 dead Americans. The lack of pity is well-deserved.
Even his most fervent media defenders were utterly shocked today when Trump forced Secret Service agents to mount up into up-armored Suburbans for a quick ride around Walter Reed so he could wave to his followers. Trump is a low man willing to infect the men and women who protect his life for a gimcrack photo op, and everyone saw it for what it was; a pathetic stunt of a politically crashed-out narcissist.
