Omigod! How did Trump go from calling this a hoax to saying:

"It's a pandemic. I always knew it was a pandemic." And I believe he added, even when before it was considered a pandemic.

The inside of my skull is turning inside out like a swimmer's cap.

I'm more embarrassed for and ashamed of the people I know who still support this vile POS. Actually it goes even deeper than that. I'm ashamed of the people I know who still support the republican party.

He knows he can get his sheep to believe anything he says. Unbelievable how they allow themselves to be played for dummies like this.

let his head blow up now, and do us and the world a favor.

he's turning himself inside out now. Maybe we should be all calling our Reps and Senators to say he needs to resign he s the biggest threat to all of us. Damn.

I'm waiting to hear him say "it was the Democrats calling the pandemic a hoax." And his sheep will lick that right up and he won't get challenged on it.

to yell at him for lying. He's so well practiced he can look into the camera and spew out these abject lies with a straight face and no one says a canned thing. I don't know what's worse, Trump and his incessant lies, or the enablers he surrounds himself with who perpetuate this idiot's con game.

So we're supposed to have bad memories and forget about him saying it was like the flu and will be gone by April?....and Rush Limbaugh saying it was a made-up disease by the Democrats to make the president look bad?

reconcile his statements from one moment to the next. Confusing as hell and perhaps maybe some of them will start trying to figure out how this got from being a 'hoax' to a pandemic. Anybody with a brain (or very little) should realize the disconnect there. Pardon the language on 'butt kissers'.
