You got it right. It’s never Trump‘s fault. All of his adoring sycophants know that. It’s just us Dems that think he’s completely insane and incompetent.

White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci warned Tuesday that the United States could face even more “suffering and death” from the coronavirus if some states rush to reopen businesses too early.

It could also hinder states “on the road to try to get back to an economic recovery,” he testified at a hearing before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. “It would almost turn the clock back rather than going forward. That is my major concern.”

The White House has laid out a plan that allows states to gradually reopen local businesses as cases and hospitalizations decline and testing increases, among other “checkpoints,” Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said. He added he’s worried that some states are loosening social distancing restrictions even as their Covid-19 cases continue to rise.

“What I’ve expressed then and again is my concern that if some areas, cities, states, what have you, jump over those various checkpoints and prematurely open up without having the capability of being able to respond effectively and efficiently, my concern is that we will start to see little spikes that might turn into outbreaks,” he said.

I used to think that I REALLY wanted Trump to serve time in jail.

Now, I just want him gone. Maybe we will all get lucky and he will commit suicide.

The conspiracy-theory junkies out there -- QAnon, Boobaloonies, 4Chan, et al. -- would have a field day trying to pin responsibilities on anyone but the cowardly-lyin' traitor.

Maybe a massive, debilitating stroke or heart attack... No wait: the tin-foil MAGA-hatters would come up with even wilder conspiracy theories.

Deplorables are online claiming the Dems are at fault for allowing foreigners into America as if Americans don't travel overseas or take cruises.

Way too little in the way of common sense. Of course, in ancient days, when someone brought a king bad news, the king often had the messenger killed, so no surprise Trump is turning against Fauci.

He is not crazy. Democrats are.
He is not a scam artist. Democrats are.
He is not a sociopath. Democrats are.

And all of this time we have been allowed to walk the streets and victimize the general public.

Come November 3rd 45 is going to prove it to us.
