Bar owner who hosted Trump Jr is now in ICU with COVID -- and wants to punch the president

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/10/bar-owner-who-hosted-trump-jr-is-now-in-icu-with-and-wants-to-punch-the-president/

Wisconsin bar owner Mark Schultz, 64, is in the ICU with COVID-19 after hosting Donald Trump, Jr. at his establishment last March.

“I don’t worry much about me, but I got a 10-year-old son and my fiancée — that’s all I care about,” he told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel via phone in between coughing and struggles with shortened breath. “My family is all at home. They are all worried about me. I don’t want them to worry about me… I don’t want them to go through this. I hope I get to go home.”

Schultz’s bar, Oblio’s, used to be a place free of politics, but not anymore.

“I just want to punch him,” Schultz said of President Donald J. Trump. “I always had to keep my politics to myself, but from where I’m sitting now? Those days are over. I shouldn’t be here.”

He should be kicking himself for falling for the con artist. He should be more introspective and think about he allowed himself to be used by Trump, a well-known con artist.

There isn't an ounce of empathy in the whole lot, but when one of these catastrophes lands on their their doorstep.........then it's a different story. They suddenly become aware that their lying, bloviating, and lack of compassion for others doesn't protect them from all the evil they brush off on others. Welcome to reality.

He hosts an event for the son of a guy who runs roughshod over the Constitution, incites racists, praises nazis and locks up babies, but that's just peachy. No worries. But give HIM "the Covid" and that's just a bridge too far.

Go fuck yourself, Mark. Oh...sorry, you already have.

I think we can safely assume the guy bought into the whole Democratic Hoax/A mask means you’re against Trump/Don’t let Covid dominate your life
line of BS.

I hope the guy gets better but, wow. When did science and common sense get so demonized that we should even be reading stories like this, regardless of which repub douchenozzle is in the whitehouse? Ugh...

I really don't wish Covid on anybody and I hope they recover soon, but y'know....


These fucking assholes have been lapping up Trump's absolutely ludicrous nonsense about Covid from the get-go while totally ignoring medical and scientific advice, as well as basic common sense.


Now we all get to listen to them cry how they have been "betrayed".


Unbelievable stupidity.

But not sorry. Truth? Man, I know I'll get grief for this but.......... truth? I don't care if you die or not. Darwinism at its finest. A big fuck you to YOU and all the chump in chiefs supporters. There, I said it.

People were dying in March, but it wasn't HIM or HIS family, so let's have pResident Donny Douchebag's even douchier spawn over for a "totally un-political" shindig--sure, no problem.

Oh what's that? You're in the ICU due to the criminally negligent response to a pandemic and NOW you see the light.

Well bully for you, asshole.

Maybe this was before waivers became normal for dealing with Trump events.

He said he felt sick last week not that he got it at the March bar party. He is saying he is mad at Trump for being nonchalant about it.
