Just A Few of the Ways DONALD-45 and COVID-19 are Really the Same Thing
A cure is in sight for both, but we’re not out of danger yet
DONALD-45 and COVID-19 have so much in common it’s not hard to understand why DONALD-45 welcomed and encouraged the virus into the country as if it were an old friend.
He’s enthusiastically promoted his viral comrade by discouraging masks, holding frequent super-spreader events, declining to champion another relief bill and refusing to properly utilize the Defense Production Act. He’s aligned himself with some of the worst human beings on the planet, such as Roger Stone, Rudy Guiliani, Stephen Miller, Steve Bannon, Betsy DeVos, Mike Pompeo, Bill Barr … oh hey, I can’t list them all. Who wants to read a list of thousands of names? He never met a destructive force he didn’t love, so it’s not surprising he’s nurtured this virus.
After all, the two are so alike! Once you start comparing them, you begin to wonder: “Has anyone ever actually seen DONALD-45 and COVID-19 in the same room together?”
Note that each of these blanks could be filled by either DONALD-45 or COVID-19 and would still make sense:
- Our country has changed profoundly and will never be the same after ___ is gone. We will always think of life in terms of Before ___ and After ___.
