Friendly reminder that when 4,000 Americans were dying per day in Dec of 2020, the Commander in Bleach was playing golf at his resort.
@Hiroko Robertson Anybody with any sense of reality can tell Trump is a deranged lying sociopath, and Fauci is a dedicated and honest public servant. The problem is yours, my friend. It is you who need to open your eyes to the obvious truth all around you. You appear to have difficulty with the language, and perhaps that is partly what has led you to believing lies. But your problem lies deeper than that, my misguided friend.
Step back from what you believe and seek truth, and you shall find it if you truly wish to do so. That is the real question for you. Do you desire truth, or would you rather follow the path of cowardly weakness and deception, which is the path you are on?
Namaste.

*_Trump is highly skilled at the art of the con. “Con” is short for confidence, and it is based on gaining confidence or trust from the potential victim. The skilled con is an expert at “baiting” the rube; telling the target what he wants to hear (as the “bait”), inspiring trust or confidence. Trump is truly a dedicated master baiter, spending a good part of each day master baiting his base._*
@petal pink *BREAKING NEWS:*
The Trump Presidential Library has burned down. Tragically, the fire consumed both books, and Trump hadn’t even finished coloring the second one.
@jones lmao😀😀
@jones Fouci being dedicated to the people and not just wanting to become a celeberty by keeping us lockdown? You must be part of the percentage of drug abusers from the lockdowns.
And MAGAs act as if Dr Fauci told them to inject themselves with Lysol, bleach, and disinfectants. 😂

@Matt Hydroychloryquine. We know. It was banned like Ivermectin until after the election and now both are widely available and used.
@Bad Wig NO. Both aren’t widely used. If they were, that would be the standard treatment all over the world. They aren’t. Why? Because they don’t work.
The entire world didn’t coordinate to hide a cheap, effective cure to COVID (and let millions of people die in the process) just to make trump look bad. He doesn’t need help with that.
@Bad Wig Why would ANY Democrat believe anything Trump said? The woman also drank some of the cleaner and she wound up in the hospital. This was an elderly couple from Phoenix AZ who obviously trusted Trump. The hospital said the man died of cardiac arrest and the woman was admitted in critical condition. The hospital did not name the couple. So how did you find out their political affiliation?
@Chris Lockwood 👉 If you had a BRAIN 👈… It would have two divisions. A ‘left’ and ‘right’ side. In your left side, there would be nothing RIGHT, and In your right side, there would be nothing LEFT….🤪🤯🤣
Donald Trump’s future headstone will read:
America is NOW great again.
Or : “I’m not dead! The autopsy was rigged!”
Trumps ONLY headstone!! Hahaha
@Aussie Rules I am not a REPUBLICAN, I am an AMERICAN, you PINKO. You should try it.
@Diana Beebe Ok commie.
@Doomwrecker Television what’s your real name and state I’ll keep you on my bucket list, too loooooolll 😜👐🍊🤣
Remember when stable genius Trump said it better for 200k Americans people die than 300k.
“It is what it is” famous last words ☮️♥️
Yes and he said he knew how serious it was but didn’t want to cause panic
TRUMP GREED played a huge part…..100%😉
@Bad Wig That’s not, What started this mess. Stick to reality with the rest of U.S.
@Fred Hope China started this mess. Fauci admitted he lied to Trump and the public in a 60 minutes interview
@Fred Hope some people still believe the “alternative facts” and are living in an alternative universe, like bizarro land. They are unreachable ☮️♥️
Greed? I thought he donates his presidential salary.
@Bad Wig tRump, is definitely making money – from all his MAGA donors. Yup, keep sending in those donations. You need to Donate ALL of your Stimulus Check Money+++, he’s greedy and wants it all. That is what he is “assking” you to do…You Fools. 🤦♂️🤪
Trump: ‘ I told my people to SLOW THE TESTING DOWN!!!”
@petal pinktrue story
Fauci: “it’s wasn’t dishonest mistakes! I was wrong but that’s just how science works!”
@Nic Moreno Even Obama’s health team said they fumbled the response! Obama was just lucky it was not the coronavirus!!
@Frail Bones Biden link to that?
@Admiral General Aladeen He did say that
con don still thinks he’s prez 🙄🤷🏼♀️ only RICO can end the madness.. may he rot in jail
AMEN!!
He absolutely KILLED 600k + Americans
@Brian Herald go have another cup of the Trump Cult Kool-Aid. You can no longer separate fantasy from reality. You are drinking the poison and don’t even know it.
@taz 9 that would be you obviously with the Democrats
@taz 9 I guess you like paying crazy high gas prices and having your taxes raised,not having the freedom to open your own business and make a living,open your eyes up my friend Democrats want to control you
@Brian Herald 👉 If you had a BRAIN 👈… It would have two divisions. A ‘left’ and ‘right’ side. In your left side, there would be nothing RIGHT, and In your right side, there would be nothing LEFT….🤪🤯🤣
@Brian Herald
Ok GQP 😂😂
Depraved indifference to human life. That is a murder charge in many states.
@Miki Lynne, absolutely. Nowhere in the whole wide world can a single man commit such a heinous crime against humanity that wiped out more than half a million family members …. and still walk free, storming capitols, restricting elections and carrying on sundry criminal activities… Am I plain dreaming 😴????
Just imagine if Biden would have continued Trumps hands off approach to the pandemic.
We probably would be in the 2,000,000,000 death total for the US.
“Herd immunity” approach wrecked everything.
@Soul Finder You mean 2M, right? You have 3 too many zeroes and one more comma than you need.
Mass murder, inciting riots, sediation, a coup attempt. FIRING SQUAD.
@Admiral General Aladeen Project Warp Speed…. When Trump put the plan in action Democrats screamed it wouldn’t work and would take years to get to market. Trump made it happen…
Something just occurred to me when I saw that last picture ; why didn’t Dr. Ben Carson speak up when Trump was talking about uv light and bleach ?
The word “honest” is not in Trump’s dictionary. Honest mistakes?
What is a “dishonest mistake” ? Dishonesty is not a mistake, it’s a choice ☮️♥️
@Sharon Pate A mistake is something you make by accident …
Dishonest mistake is something you make by accident then compound it by not understanding science and then lying about it repeatedly while trying to hide it.
Scary thought .. if drumpf HAD done the right thing he actually MIGHT have been re-elected according to exit polls.
They were not honest mistakes. Trump on the severity of the virus “I like to play it down” and while thousands died, “I still like to play it down.” Admitting he lied to the country knowing tens of thousands would die.
What a cruel evil man.
Yeah but karma is eating him up as we speak and he’s too ignorant to even figure it out!! Oh Trump will get his trust me… Even if none of these charges that’s on him don’t stick he will go in a slow and painful way alone!! Mark my words!!
Yes, because not locking down was totally iresponsible. There is no way that those extended lockdowns he opposed were, I don’t know, causing suicidal thoughts to rise. Or domestic violence. Or buisness closures. Or-
“Like a miracle it will go away”
Too bad it didn’t, but here’s hoping he will very soon.
I remember when little satan said that the stockpile of PPE was their PPE and the states will have to get their own.
Jared wanted to save the PPE for a rainy day
“Jared Kushner was one of the smarter people…. ” jeez…..
That bar was so low an archeological dig is required to find it.
That guy is a stepford wife
I said in the beginning. That thing is going to get us killed.
He didn’t even care when his brother was in hospital dying – he was playing golf !!!!
Hi Lorraine how’re you doing today
What you said is unbelievable so you mean is brother was in the hospital n is even playing golf geez
Marcel N that’s exactly what happened there is a video out there of it if you search on utube you will find it no joke !
@Marcel Nicolas Actually Trump went to the movies with his sister. Trump did this because he’s a malignant narcissist who only cares about himself.
@Lorraine Biggs yeah I know but it’s unbelievable
Mr Pinocchio in chief, Trump, should be held accountable.
“I see disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute, and is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning?”
People are realizing he is worse than they imagined. There is nothing that is below him.
So much so that Biden now has a 48 percent approval and falling every day… MSNBC is pure propaganda they are just trying to boost ratings.
