In the history of this country we have had presidents who shock and presidents who delightfully surprise.
We have had those who work for the common good, leading a nation through war, crisis, shortages, and strife.
We have had those who abuse the power of office, drunk on their inflated egos, completely forgetting how they got to that coveted office space to begin with.
We have had funny presidents, foul presidents, good presidents, bad presidents.
We have had presidents who lead with brains and those who lead with brawn.
We have had presidents who are such gifted orators that, to pull a quote from Footloose, "lift a congregation up so high they have to look down to see Heaven."
And then we have what we have now - a president who is the fleshy equivalent of a Mad Libs sheet crossed with a BINGO machine that has words on the balls instead of numbers. He is what one would get with an infinite number of monkeys and typewriters. Yes, Bob Newhart, they eventually would get to writing all the great books, but first they would be speech writing what we get from Donald J. Trump.

Crapsac Aderrall Shitferbrains, starving for an audience, was back at the podium this afternoon. In the wake of his cringe inducing performance with Chris Wallace in which his meltdown was as much figurative as it was literal (HE demanded the interview take place outdoors.), his zookeepers decided to put him back on display for purported Coronavirus Briefings - you know, the ones he got bored with back in April?
And it went just as well as one would imagine.
With all the intellect and enthusiasm of a 7th grader having to give a report in front of the class on a subject on which he knows fuck all, the stupidest man alive held court.
He stuck to his racism by continuing to call it the China Virus. He lied about our stats vs the world's. For the record, we currently have charted over 4,000,000 positive cases, have lost 144,815 lives, have only 4% of the world's population, but 24% of the deaths, and 27% of the cases.
Yes, we are doing a bang up job of holding onto that #1 spot in government malfeasance in the face of a pandemic. We are still killing our citizens almost 2 to 1 compared to the next closest country, Brazil.
When asked if we have a problem with testing in this country, he again stuck to his lie about have "massive numbers" of tests. We don't. We are still only averaging 150,000 tests per million citizens in this country, and those who are lucky enough to get one, are waiting for up to two weeks to get their results. We still have no national testing strategy, apparatus, or centralized system. And he and his cronies are trying to push through a stimulus bill that cuts money for testing and supplies and support.
But no matter, according to the basted turkey's spokesperson, he gets tested "multiple times a day."
He continued to stick to his assertion that "The virus will disappear. It will just disappear." That's literally his strategy, the reality show Survivor. He thinks he can Outwit, Outplay, and Outlast a deadly virus. Just how many contestants will get permanently voted off this island before then?
Earlier today, his Press Barbie, Kayleigh McEnany, had the gall to say he has always urged people to wear masks. A big assed lie. This came in the wake of his tweet yesterday in which the Lone Derangeder referred to mask wearing as patriotic and literally typed the words, "There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President!"
<Insert Larfing - Laughing + barfing at the same time.>
This racist chickenshit has refused to wear a mask, refused to advocate for mask wearing, is on the record saying it would make him look weak, "Send the wrong message." He is completely to blame for the constant batshittery taking place in stores across the nation as his equally ignorant cultists grandstand about not wearing one, intentionally cough on other people, destroy items in stores when confronted, and have taken lives over being asked to don one.
Only now, as his poll numbers flow down the shitter like his diet of cola and chicken fat, is he now acting like he has been a proponent all along. Only today, as he stood there and warbled that coronavirus will "get worse before it gets better" is he pretending to advocate for mask wearing.
Yes, pretending. Hours after his tweet yesterday, he was filmed last night at his DC hotel at a fundraiser glad handing and NOT wearing a mask.
Honestly, think about where we could be if this monument to the seven deadly sins had urged mask wearing from the beginning. Hell, slap flags on them and sell them from his website - I don't care. Just think of where that kind of messaging to his pack of rats could have us now if they had been told this from March on?
And watch - his network of nincompoops will start wearing them, and acting like they have been for them all along. Because Coward Von Maybelline has now appeared in one and has attached the word patriotic to the act of donning one.
Whatever, just wear the damned thing. Because it is going to get worse before it gets better.
A reporter asked a question regarding Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime procurer of underage girls to rape, and a long time buddy of Trump's. His reply? First, feigned ignorance of the case. "I haven't really been following it too much."
Um, riiiiiiiiight.
He then added, "I just wish her well."
He barely musters a tweet and halfstaff flags for half a day for an icon of justice and civil rights - John Lewis - yet sends a verbal Hallmark card for a venal, conniving, molesting accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein, who he is pictured with repeatedly through the years.
He continued to pull non sequiters and half thoughts from his BINGO machine and then abruptly ended the briefing. The zookeepers must have rung the dinner bell.
Then, as sure as night follows day, news anchors began referring to Trump's "new tone." He rambles through a prepared script like a Real Housewife half way through a bottle of Prosecco, wishes an international sex trafficker well, and is awarded with "new tone."
I just fucking can't anymore.
This man is the reason we have 50 million people out of work. This man is the reason we have ICUs at capacity and refrigerated semi trucks full of dead bodies outside hospitals. This man is the reason a pandemic continues to rage (we have added over 58,000 cases since midnight). This man is the reason scores of mothers were teargassed in Portland. This man is the reason a retired Naval officer has two broken bones and bruises across his body. This man is the reason 229 more people have died while I have been typing.
This dim, self centered, clay colored garden gnome is the reason this country is in crisis. And he has been aided and abetted right down the line by his coterie of cowards in the GOP. Our survival matters not. Their survival is the only thing they are concerned with.
And right now, he is a shithouse rat, trapped and spinning crazily to escape any responsibility. Throwing all manner of spaghetti at the wall to get the focus off the utter and complete failure he has been all his life, and especially the past 3 1/2 years.
We do not have more time to give to President Mad Libs von Scrabblebag. He cannot comfort as he does not know empathy. He cannot lead, as he is nothing that inspires. He cannot follow those who know more, as his ego is far more important than our safety. This grand experiment called the United States of America cannot take much more. And our lives literally hang in the balance. He thinks it is all a game. Fine. Let's channel one then. Mortal Kombat.
And come November 3rd: FINISH HIM.
