8. I didn't put two and two together

until I saw your post and the calendar at the same time.

We're to believe that he was so consumed by the impeachment that he spent the weekend of the absolute height of the proceedings at Mar a Lago golfing.

It's double damning...shows he knew the fix was in re:impeachment and still was not taking COVID seriously.

Edit to add: Imagine if he were competent instead of arrogant and lazy. He could have addressed the crisis and undercut impeachment by saying something like "The Senate can remove me if they want. I don't have time to worry about it, we have a public health crisis to address."

And then actually worked it...
