Damning and absolutely spot on analogy re: Trump

Naomi Klein on Democracy Now: "I really think we should see Trump getting COVID as the epidemiological equivalent of a mass shooting, where the shooter opens fire on the crowd and then turns the gun on himself. This is not a tragic accident. It is a crime scene and should be treated as such."

I could care less if drumpf dies. I will not have my American flag at half-mast. I will be celebrating the demise of a liar, a charlatan, a failed business person, a failed president, a crook etc. On and on. An Illegitimate president who pefers Putin as a role model, calls our military suckers etc. On and on. NO. No tears shed for this traitor. No thoughts and prayers that he recovers. He does not deserve them.

There is no way Trump purposely "turned the gun on himself." Whereas the mass shooter does.
