Where Is the Outrage?

[Zorro]

Americans are getting sick and dying while Trump plays a political game.

It never ceases to amaze me how more people aren’t outraged, shocked and disgusted by Donald Trump’s cruelty and malfeasance.

Nearly 140,000 Americans are now dead because of the Covid-19 pandemic and more than 3,000,000 have contracted the disease. Furthermore, our outlook in this country is dire: Cases are surging and the number of dead continues to climb.

This is still the first wave; a second wave could simply pile on and be catastrophic.

And yet, Trump’s cronies are attacking Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, demanding that all schools reopen in the fall even as the virus rages, and continuing to tell the lie that the reason we have more cases is because we have more tests.

1. They're outraged at the thought of losing power.

2. Where is the outrage? Literally everywhere; the air is palpable with it.

Only the shrinking glob of MAGATS and Russiapublicans are keeping up the pretense that everything is fine.
