He thinks this cheap stunt makes him look like a tough guy, strong man who isn't really sick with the Covid virus and under intensive care at Walter Reed hospital.

The rest of us see a week, pathetic old fool who is desperately trying to hang onto his rapidly diminishing claim to fame. He is willing to risk the lives of everyone who got sucked into this political kabuki theatre stunt just to get a few minutes in the limelight so he could bask in the adulation of his fans.

He thought gassing protesters made him look strong. It didn't.

Now he's gassing Secret Service agents with his rank COVID breath.

I think I know why, he doesn’t give a shit about anybody but him. The Secret Service agents are just his servants.

Jesus Christ, I’m sick and tired of this country always having to pay for the sins of Fred Sr. That’s where 99.9% of this crap has come from — Trump’s insecurities because of his daddy issues.

Meanwhile, health care workers everywhere face a lack of PPE daily, and people suffer and die alone every single day.

Absolutely enraging. Just for a trip around the block.

He’s not learned a damned thing.

The guy in front is wearing more than an N-95.

He probably is wishing for a hazmat suit.,

The gown has holes in it.
As for face shield, it's not going to do much, since Trump is sitting behind him.

There is a yellow band across the forehead and down the side of his face.

Enlarged the photo and now I’m not sure either. Regardless...they don’t get paid enough for that shit.

They weren’t permitted to go see their loved ones die because the hospitals are locked down. And here this asshat is making a mockery of it all.

This is another nail in his coffin.
