They Had a Plan, But Decided People Should Just Die Instead — Politics, Truth, and Lies

They actually had a plan. They did. It would have been massive; testing, contact tracing, the whole thing.

They tossed it.

Why? Because they thought the virus was only affecting ‘blue’ states, so who cares? No, really. It wasn’t spreading to the ‘red’ states yet, so it’s just not ‘politically advantageous’ to, you know, give a damn and try to save people.

Everyday, every-damn-day I think this administration can’t get any more heartless, reckless, stupid, and cruel. Every-damn-day they grin and say ‘“Hold my beer.”The Trump administration decided it would be politically expedient to just let people die.

Seriously.

He is not, and has never been, the president for all America, just for the ones that voted for him, that cheer him at his rallies, that deck their boats with ‘Trump 2020’ signs.

The rest of us can just die. And please, do it before November, if you can.

And now, after scrapping the plan, they find themselves in trouble pretty much of their own making.

Shoocking.

So Trump paused, for a week, their advertising. They ‘couldn’t find a message’.

In the midst of a ruined economy, 155,000+ dead, a pandemic raging uncontrolled, and protestors in the streets, Trump can’t find a ‘message’.

Huh.

The ‘Biden is corrupt’ didn’t work, ‘Biden loves China’ didn’t work. ‘Biden had dementia’ didn’t work, ‘Biden will bring on the Mad Max apocalypse’ (with pics from Trump’s America), didn’t work. He can’t run on his record (see above, or the last three years), so he still looking for the magic bullet to save him.

Donny, buddy, chum, you want to improve your chances?

My friends will hate this, but hey! Here’s how you do it:

Stop acting like a teenager told to clean their room. The covid IS the economy, fix the virus, you fix the economy. Take the pandemic seriously. Go on TV with a mask, tell people they need to wear them, tell them they need to follow CDC guidelines, and then follow them yourself. Work with the states to make sure they impose the guidelines as well. Tell your followers to suck it up and follow them. Get the GOP senate to take this seriously and pass a bill that will actually help people and not hedge fund managers. Stop whining and be serious.

That’s basically it: BE SERIOUS.

Maybe go back to the plan you tossed because it might have helped someone who might not have voted for it.

Insane…

I give you this very good advice for one reason; I know you won’t do it. You can’t, you just can’t. You can’t admit to a mistake, you can’t reverse yourself because you think that would be ‘weak’. I know this is pretty much the same advice some of those around you (not Jared) are pushing, and THEY know you won’t take it. We’ll find out from the books they will publish to blamer others. You can’t find a ‘message’ because the actual message should be ‘Vote for Biden because I’m in over my head’.

And that is the message you will never, CAN never, acknowledge.
