Trump hasn't just surrendered to the coronavirus, he is eagerly feeding it victims.

.........

It’s obvious that Trump sees the COVID-19 crisis as yet another opportunity to operate through the shock doctrine. He has no intention of making things better because he is not interested in making things better. Instead, the White House is now viewing the crisis as an opportunity. An opportunity to provide even greater power to ICE and to limit all types of immigration. An opportunity to crush public education between impossible demands. An opportunity to push state and local budgets and infrastructure to the brink; to leave every form of public assistance starved for funds and facing overwhelming demand; to deliberately spark a crisis in evictions and foreclosures.

Imagine if instead of resisting the Nazis during WW2, Winston Churchill had begun teaching Brits to speak German. Because that's what this seems like. We're being rushed towards the abyss.

We should all be at this stage. We have a lunatic at the helm. Each day brings more in-credulousness at his enablers and excusers. We in America area dysfunctional family refusing as a whole to acknowledge the obvious.

The LOW IQ mentally unfit lunatic knows that he has already lost the election and he is making the American People pay for it dearly by making them suffer in misery by plague, financial ruin, and his anger in every way possible.

Every fucking Republican and their voters need to be targeted, penalized, punished, and ridiculed (what they have done to Dems for decades) from now on with NO exceptions. The American People need to inflict a blow back that spares none of these willful participants to the greatest failure, corruption, attack, and perversion on the United States. There needs to be a scorched earth policy for every American to make it common knowledge that it is shameful to admit being a Republican in public.

As for the tRUMP family... Well criminal drug rings have all their assets seized/forfeited and liquidated for public use, so their lifetimes of pure crime should suffer the same fate as they await all of their trials.
