Covid-19 Regrets Follow One State Republican Official Home From White House Party | Rachel Maddow

    1. I literally live in my garage and speak to my son on face-time through the door leading into my home. Because I work in a Hospital and I’m terrified by accidentally transmitting it to my family! How can these buffoons and deniers be so callous with their families lives?

    1. CA25D: If only the president had drunk the Lysol when he told us it would cure COVID. “This just in: the president has been rushed to the emergency room of Walter Reed Medical Center after drinking a disinfectant he thought would protect him from COVID. He is being treated for burns in his mouth, esophagus, and stomach lining. His stomach is being pumped as we speak. Doctors believe the president will survive but will never be able to eat cheeseburgers, tacos or fried chicken again. Just before the president left for Walter Reed, his last tweet read, ‘Ow-wwwwww…’ plus 262 more w’s, fefe, and four exclamation points. Further details at 11.”

    1. Imagine tRump exposing himself, his wife and kids, the White House staff and Secret Service and countless Americans at rallies and elite guests at W.H. parties with all the protections afforded him in the White House to avoid the pandemic. No one is going to rush any of US to Walter Reed like they did tRump. Why? Because WE aren’t rich and that means that WE don’t matter.

    2. @Adrian G You’re no better than the Republicans with comments like that. You really believe they deserve to die? They deserve to ostracized, and even imprisoned in some cases, but not death.

    1. May be if that person lack empathy, lack good judgement, and lack moral. That is a lot of lacks to get voted into office.

    1. Biden should live somewhere else for 14 days. The White House should be quarantined. Trump has left it a cesspool.

  1. As my grandmother use to say, “You made your bed, now lie in it.” After having gone through covid twice myself, I feel no sympathy for Republikans who flout science and good sense to buck up a discolored emperor wannabe and his overinflated ego.

  2. Oh my god, I feel so awful for his wife. She warned him and he still went. Now she’s paying for it. I’m so sorry that happened to her and her family

    1. @James Ricker Well, that’s apparently part of the marriage vows, where the wife vows to remember your screw-ups and remind you about it whenever it works to her advantage.

  3. bad cough, chills, fever, upset stomach, extreme fatigue and what did he learn? Another GOP clown looking for attention.

    1. He’s Representative of the ENTIRE Republican party’s ” thinking” !! These IDIOTS THINK they’re ” invincible” !!!

  4. The cult members are choosing to infect each other.
    Quoting Melania— “I don’t really care. Do U?”

    1. How about this one: Luke Letlow (R – Louisiana): Newly-elected Congressman, 41, died on Tuesday from Covid19.
      He was going to be sworn in next week (for the first time). Now his funeral is coming up. No further comments.

    2. @Honeydew2040 What an unnecessary tragedy for people who just refuse to treat this pandemic with the seriousness they should. Probably human nature to believe it will not happen to me. Really very sad, regardless of who the victims are. What a travesty realize it could have been avoided.

    1. Yes, New Zealand a country of nearly 5 million. Zero cases in the community and approx 50 cases quarantined at the border.

    2. Taiwan…population around 24 million. Number of deaths = 7. Number of Covid cases = 753. Because a) Borders locked down immediately and b) Masks were made MANDATORY FOR EVERYONE! And you still have dumb idiots who think wearing a mask interferes with their civil rights.

  5. Trump has no reason not to have parties. He had a tough infection himself, so he will be immune for a while. And sadly, that is all that matters to him.
