16. Seething hatred for Trumpies

Sat Apr 18, 2020, 09:58 AM

Apr 2020

Navy shipyard asbestos exposure leaves me with compromised lungs, and at my age I'm a goner if I breath in just a wisp of the virus.

The Florida governor, with his head jammed up donnies butt, is about to open Florida for business. Until there is a vaccine to protect me from sure death, I will be wearing a face mask and gloves during my early morning food shopping in Publix, Walmart or Costco.

I'm concerned that trump morons are going to encroach on my 6-foot radius of social distancing. I can only imagine the yelling arguments that will be happening between the seniors that want to live, and the trump morons who do not give a crap about others.

I don't pack gun in this 'shoot first ask questions later' state, but plenty of trump morons do so I expect some bloody cleanups on supermarket aisles this summer/fall.

I despise the fact that I have to think like this at this stage in my life, and not take one for the team and die early for the stock market, but that is our new reality. It sux.
