To paraphrase "Mash's" Hawkeye Pierce, "The instrument has yet to be invented that could measure

the magnitude of Trumpist stupidity".

We have parents urging that children not be tested for Covid because if there are too many positives "they'll close the schools!"

We have multiple people who have gotten seriously ill because they ingested disinfectants.

We have had people who damaged their heart by taking hydroxychloroquine based solely on Trump's "prescription".

While positive tests, hospitalizations and Covid deaths continue to set new records, we are---FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD!---opening schools and attending church services shoulder to shoulder with thousands of unmasked others!

We have Q-anon, teabagger, deplorable Trumpist idiots who claim it is their right to infect others with Covid by refusing to wear a damn mask.

Covid parties, attacking store employees who require masking, characterizing the scientifically proven pandemic as a "hoax" or "just the flu"----as someone recently posted, "it seems the 'bottom' always has a basement ".

Trump infected us with stupidity long before the Corona virus arrived.
