Tue Mar 24, 2020, 03:44 PM
Mar 2020

even though he left the country in an absolute wreck, his team was at least fully cooperative with the transition and felt it was their responsibility to make the transition of power as smooth as possible. They had briefing books, extensive documentation, and did exercises about responding to crises. And the Obama team returned the favor to the tRump team because they knew how important it was.

But the tRump team didn't take it seriously and disregarded most everything, and everything leads me to believe they'll be just as awful when they are forced to surrender power after the election. The Biden team will have to start basically from zero and, because there are so many vacancies in so many important positions, they will have to spend an inordinate amount of time hiring people just to get the government back to functioning like normal again.

The virus looks very much "under control" to me...

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

Just click on "logarithmic" on the graph and it doesn't look nearly as bad.

In fact, if we could only increase the vertical scale to around 100 million instead of a measly 100,000 I bet we could even practically make it go away entirely.

Biden really needs to hire some folks who know about graphs. Hey, Joe! I'm available...if I can work from home.

Trump promised us that it would. And he's a genius. And a successful businessman. Top of his class at Wharton. He knows more about war than the generals. More about pandemics than the CDC. More about hurricanes than NOAA.

But, mostly, he knows more about show business and fools than P.T. Barnum.

MIT professors were surprised when they found out he knew more than they did.

Trump thinks he may have 'a natural ability' to address viral outbreaks

https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trump-thinks-he-may-have-natural-ability-address-viral-outbreaks-n1153061

On top of all that he's working with God on that miracle he said was gonna happen soon to make the virus all go away and the stock market rocket to 50,000.

And he does all this between rounds of golf at Mar-a-Lago. Busy guy, that Donald.

He does more in one single morning than I've ever done in my entire miserable worthless life and could ever hope to do in what's left of it.

That's it...I'm pulling the plug so that I don't continue to use up precious resources. See ya, DU. Goodbye, cruel world.

BANG!

Damn, I can't even shoot straight. I bet Donald is an expert marksman as well. Wish he'd try it and show us.

If something so small it can only be seen by an electron microscope obliterated Trump and the entire Republican Party.

The scientists should really start working on getting it to mutate to the point where it only infects and destroys Republicans......
Trump, McConnell, Pence, and DeVos would be my first pics.

Any others you think should be at the top of the list for being punished for "Crimes Against Humanity" ?????????
Maybe the HAGUE could jump in on this and give us some help.......
