(28,079 posts)Those who had opposed her in life did not feel the need to be hypocritical when she died (like so many in the U.S., including here on DU who got so sanctimonious about "not speaking ill of the dead" when Reagan and Bush I died).
Glenda Jackson's speech on the floor of the House of Commons was epic - you'd never see an American politician showing that kind of honesty.

(327 posts)... throw in a Golden Globe, and a Tony for luck. All mixed in with a truck full of nominations.
She could have enjoyed the same aristocracy of mature female acting icons, along with the likes of Helen Mirren and Judi Dench. Yet, she put her acting career on the back-burner, and got elected, to address the immorality of Thatcherist UK. As a proper social democrat!
Apparently, she's now acting again.
Great lady!

In a just world, that would happen in about 18 months from now.
Let's see what happens.

(47,476 posts)Its not like they would tell us the truth if he tested positive. Then there was that rumor last week about him going to Walter Reed and the bruise on his hand like from an IV. And then there was the time he claimed to be taking Hydroxy as a precaution, which was rather weird, unless he was just trying to push the drug again.
I'm not saying I think he DOES have it, but like you, I am surprised he doesn't already. He has been incredibly reckless and so many people around him have tested positive.
Initech
(100,079 posts)Believe me, I know the type. He's like the Black Knight in Monty Python & The Holy Grail. He could lose all four limbs and say that it's merely a flesh wound.
Trump could be on his death bed from COVID-19 and be like "Hey! It's only a cough! Those stupid liberal media losers were lying about it!!".
PatSeg
(47,476 posts)Trump is incapable of ever admitting he is wrong or has made a mistake. What a pitiful human being. We've all known people like him and generally try to avoid them. Unfortunately, he has a lot of power, so his stubborn stupidity is dangerous to the entire planet.

It's like evil keeps them going on . While so many good people die.
I guess when you don't give a shit about anyone else you don't hurt and stress over things that don't affect themselves.

My main goal is to live long enough to see him defeated. If i can make it to see Joe sworn in as president, I will be happy.

(12,869 posts)Donald deserves ro feel the full force of rejection and humiliation.
Then he can eat shit and die.
PatSeg
(47,476 posts)He needs to live long enough to feel the disgrace and humiliation that he has earned. He does not deserve to die too soon, that's the easy way out. We had to live with the repercussions of his lies and corruption, he should as well.
May he not know a moment's peace, witness his gold plated empire crumble, and watch family and friends exit his life. Being he doesn't like pets, he won't even have a faithful dog or cat to keep him company.
I won't even start on what should happen to his many enablers in government.

(33,523 posts)I'm high risk; required to be out in the world a certain amount and quite afraid I won't do this, live to see that beast humiliated.
I keep thinking of all those soldiers killed in wars they did not live to see won.
It would be icing on the cake, of course, to live see him sentenced to prison along with that criminal thug Barr.
