It was the same sound a sixth grader makes after standing in front of the class reading his book report. "Okay, that's done with."

But the first time I tried nothing would load, not even the OP. I went offline and went through a cleanup tool process and now I can see it.

He sounded like a little brat saying "Okaaaayyyy... I ate the damn green beans -- can I go now?"

Not surprised, though. Until he or his precious Ivanka are affected, it's of no real concern to him.

At least Dubya just sounded detached and lazy, but not (like il Doofus) actively pissed off that people were making him take a moment to deal with serious matters.

It was his usual stiff teleprompter persona, wooden, but with minimal flubs this time.

But yeah, he's like "Is somebody gonna yell CUT! or something?"

You frightened the fuck out of anyone who watched and no one in this country is any safer. Markets will punish you in the morning and if Congress had any sense at all, they'd run you out on a rail by afternoon.

And when it was over he'd tell his staff something like, "Okay. I did what you want. Now go f off.".

His "okay" said it all. Just going through the motions, checking the box.

If he isn't positive for covid-19 I hope he at least sweats over it until he learns the test results.

Like they could be dangerous to him and not the other way around.

He must be losing the little sleep he usually gets.
