TRUMP GOT COVID

https://i.imgur.com/Ge5T4px.jpg

the "Best Wishes on a Speedy Recovery" bullshit isn't some unpardonable sin, it's just fucking lame. like you can always just not say anything, that's always an option.

It's not an option for everyone, I'm afraid.

because my brain is broken and I can only think in terms of the fucking election, I do think that yes, if you're a Dem pol or left-wing media personality you probably shouldn't say anything but if you do "thoughts and prayers" is fine because everyone on the right is licking their chops right now at the potential "THE LEFT WANTS YOU TO GET SICK AND DIE" campaign they so want to run right now and given that Biden is way way ahead right now I think any chaos is by definition bad

trump caught the covid
left me a mule to ride

just thinking back to those rumours that might have had a heart attack at the end of 2019

And he was the only one on the Abbey Road cover not wearing shoes.

Wheels within wheels, maan. Back, and to the left. Steel beams.

I think Joe Biden at least has to say this stuff. His entire shtick is taking the high road.

yeah, he does

agreed

If I was Joe Biden I would simply renounce the Democratic nomination so I could wish death on Trump

I mean honestly are people going to get upset about Biden's camp making the most generic politician tweet ever? who gives a shit, it would be amazingly dumb at this stage to do anything else

the Democratic candidate for Agriculture Commissioner in my state is already getting dragged for posting a TikTok reveling in Trump's diagnosis. I for one appreciate the Serious Newsmen of my local media bringing my attention to this rising young political star who I am now very excited to vote for.

Ums, you underestimate many ilxors' knee-jerk antipathy

I mean as terrible a person as he is he's still the President of the United States, if you work for the federal government you can't appear like you're wishing death upon him. if you find out the CEO of the company you work for is sick you can't publicly say "good, he sucks". Yes I know he 100% deserves it but a world in which this is acknowledged is a world in which Donald Trump is never elected president

privately though, fuck anyone who says we need to have an ounce of sympathy for him, particularly since this is the same group who strongly implies that every black person shot by a cop somehow deserved it for "putting themselves in that position". there is nobody on this God-forsaken planet who deserves to get COVID-19 more than Donald Trump. this isn't some sort of poetic justice, this is the direct consequences of his actions, and in fact the real tragedy here is that he's gonna get the sort of top-notch medical care that he's been fighting tooth and nail to deny the people who got sick because of him, even though those people pay more in taxes than he does.

I live in Wisconsin. We are getting fucking SLAMMED with Covid right now. Trump was planning to come here and now he can't. If he had come, it is a matter of fact that people attending that rally would have gotten infected. And they would've passed it on to hundreds of other people. And perhaps those people would've passed it onto people I know. The fact that he is not coming here is directly going to save the lives of people who are not irredeemable fuck-ups. and for that I can finally say, for once, thank you coronavirus

Death is too good for Trump. He needs to live well into the Biden presidency and face whatever reckoning is coming.

Plus we don't want Pence to ride a sympathy vote to a four year term.

who?

No one like Trump ever faces a reckoning, but on the plus side they do die.

Almost makes you want to believe in an afterlife where justice is meted out at long last.

Priests and fools say
We are but animate clay
We're crude vessels
Housing immortal souls

But the dead only quickly decay
They don't go about being born and reborn
And rising and falling like soufflé
The dead only quickly decay

It would be swell
To see some folk burn in hell
But when they go
Its just as pleseant to know

That the dead only quickly decay
They dont go about being born and reborn
And rising and falling like soufflé
The dead only quickly decay

trump dying from the virus would be the most poetic + he would be gone

on this matter I'm a centrist (I think both candidates getting sick and dying would be the funniest outcome)

Very cool, hope yr country also gets thrown into absolute chaos ASAP for some quality lols.

Think it’s pretty fun that today we get to learn who would let baby hitler live

Yes I would hate it if our ruling class were decimated xp

xpost PS I figured out the solution to that perennial quandary a while back (secret vasectomy on Daddy Hitler and voila).

Don't let's be beastly to the Bidens

OL, tbf one of these countries is not like the other.

Fwiw the head of our federal Conservative party has (or had? I haven't kept up) covid, as does the leader of the separatist Bloc Québécois, and I, for one, am totally cool with that.

Trudeau's love of pr0n* may have saved his life by distracting him from his COVID-infected wife.

*I actually do unfortunately have specific intelligence on this from my Mtl video store days but I'll save that for a darker day, not a joyous one like today.

I mean I thought the only reason right thinking people were supposed to vote for the reactionary billionaire loving cop supporting sex pest was to stop Trump so if Trump were to die in agony God forbid then what's the point of a Biden

Had no idea you'd sojourned in Montreal, Simon.

xp

I lived there for almost a decade!

We're back at 1000+ new cases per day in Qc so moving (back?) to T-dot was def the right call.

OH SHIT

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL!

Aw, it was just Locker Room Talk.

xp - I totally get that. but we all know the left & the right play by different rules when it comes to this stuff, by definition really, cuz we are not the party of mindless cruelty

counterpoint the dems are the party of mindless cruelty

where the gop would be the party of mindful cruelty

The walk to the church and hoisting the bible was probably the most exercise he's done in decades.

lagoon otm, sad lol

why is it that whenever a statement like this happens everyone momentarily forgets the otherwise obvious fact that "I wish you well" is code for "fuck you"

xpost Possibly because "I wish you dead" is just much more efficient.

NV, you thought wrong.

why is it that whenever a statement like this happens everyone momentarily forgets the otherwise obvious fact that "I wish you well" is code for "fuck you"

people just like being sanctimonious towards their friends

Is it okay if I make disgusting comments about James Woods pervin' on 20 year olds?

sure, "I wish you dead" is absolutely not off the table, it's just bizarre reading people say "he wished him well! how could he wish him well?" with zero irony when those same people probably know full well that if you get an email from someone ending in "I wish you well" then you know to never contact them again for the rest of your life

I uhhhhh, I'll be right back I need to call my sister
