To Those Who Are About to Die ...

… because you are following the advice of the madman in the WH, I say good riddance. Trust me, the country will be a better place without you.

To those about to contract Covid-19 because you prefer to believe a lying dumbass rather than scientists who are experts in the field of infectious diseases, I hope you die quickly – before you infect your family members, your neighbours, your fellow citizens.

To those of you about to die as a result of your own stupidity, your own arrogance, your own selfishness, rest assured you will go to your graves unmourned and unmissed by the rest of us. Having fewer stupid, arrogant, selfish people in the world is a blessing – especially under the current circumstances.

To those of you about to die because you insist on risking your lives for a haircut, a manicure, or a tattoo, I hope you will find comfort in leaving this world as a good-looking corpse – and I hope that’s the only comfort you experience as you breathe your last.

I am out of fucks to give. I am out of sympathy for the kool-aid drinkers, the mindless sheep willing to blindly follow a brainless idiot who doesn’t have the mental acuity to avoid staring directly into the sun during a solar eclipse.

It’s sad to say, but when I see crowds of Trump-humpers protesting the only proven-to-be effective measures of obeying lock-down orders and business closures, I know some of them will die as a result of exposing themselves to a fatal disease – but my only thought is that that means fewer Trump-humpers among us. And that’s something I really can’t get teary-eyed about.

So to those who are about to die due to your own irresponsibility, your own selfishness in refusing to take measures that protect your fellow citizens, or in pursuit of some ludicrous attempt to show your support a fucking moron who is already responsible for deaths of tens of thousands of Americans, I salute you – with an upturned middle finger. (Actually, make that two.)

And just so you know, Trump doesn’t care if you die any more than I do.

It's not that Donnie just doesn't care if you die.

Donnie is killing. He's actively killing. He can make it look as if it's circumstances out of his control, or out of some imagined ideological perspective, but it doesn't matter, because what matters is that Trump knows exactly what he's doing. He's killing tens of thousands. And he'll kill every day, every week.

We can equivocate. We can cite Donnie's ignorance, his arrogance, his presumed dementia, you name it. But the fact of the matter is that he is actively causing thousands of deaths when he could just as easily have prevented them. As a person in an extremely powerful position, he has a choice. And he is CHOOSING to destroy lives, destroy families, destroy whole communities. He is actively choosing to engineer and promote death. Let's not assume the most lame of excuses for this behavior. I'm done with that. We can only look at facts, and what Trump is doing. He's killing people. He's punching down and he's punching with death. He is USING THE VIRUS to kill.

Pretty obvious because he is jonesing to have his Nazi rallies back and those fuckwits will be the ones affected. And I have no sympathy for them at all. At least some won’t be around to vote.

if they don't go back.

They are being forced to make a choice that isn't a choice at all.

Go back to work or no help from the government. Like it's their choice to be homeless if they fear for their lives. That's not a true choice.

As for the Trumpers, the world is better off without them.

To those who are about to die because they are the children, parents, employees, dependents, caregivers, servers, beauticians, and service providers to the idiots who are unwilling to consider the effects of their actions on others,

I am so so sorry. I am sorry the country has come to this and that you will be sacrificed, murdered, on the altar of hate and ignorance.

I am so sorry.

And don't think they have well drawn up plans to steal this one too. They'll do anything to retain power, as your thread makes all too clear. They've been at war with America and Americans ever since we had the audacity to elect a half-white president.

I'm out of fucks to give too. After we in in 2020 I hope to furiously want to steamroll all conservative policies and politicians. Don't even give them the time of day. It's our way or the highway. No negotiating, 100% partisan do what we want across all levels of government.

I'm speaking of the Republican senators who voted not to impeach. If Trump had been kicked out of office maybe the sniveler might have done a better job. He couldn't have done a worse one. My dream is...as he hands over the keys to the White House to Biden, the police are waiting with handcuffs to arrest him. As they guide him into the back seat of the police car, they forget to make sure he doesn't bump his head.

May many Covid-19 germs gather and swarm around and into Donald Trump and his family.

for the opportunity to "stick it to the libs." This serious psychosis can be traced back to right wing media that is dedicated to dividing the country for cheap political gain. Machiavelli beckons from Hades. When Reagan vetoed the Fairness Doctrine it opened the door for unchecked right wing propaganda that foments hatred designed to turn Americans against each other and thus weaken us at home and abroad while eviscerating America's core.
We now have a cheesy, malevolent, toxic, second hand reality TV performance artist steering the ship of state into an iceberg.
Pox News and hate radio brain poison has been very effective at destroying the United States. When this scourge is sent packing we must prosecute all of them to the fullest extent of the law. Punishment must be swift and severe so as to send an indelible message to all those who choose to destroy us from within.

When Newtie was Speaker of the House, he did something unprecedented.

Back then, it was common for many in Congress to re-locate to MD, VA, DE, and bring families. There was a lot of across-the-aisle comraderie. They would all get together for holiday parties, summer soft-ball games, BBQs, birthday get-togethers, Fourth of July fireworks on the Mall, at the Memorial, etc. In this way, they all got to know not just each other, but the wives, husbands, children. Congressional wives played a HUGE part in these relationships. They formed bonds of friendship and yes, affection for one another. They could often agree to disagree, but came together to pass legislation that was good for the nation, not just their immediate constituency. They became friends and worked in a "let's find some common ground here" kind of way. The country was better off for it, too, as frequently they could join in reaching out to the other side to get important things done.

Then came Newtie. He prohibited republican members of the House from bringing their families to the area OR fraternization with the other side. He put an end to all of the get-togethers and parties and BBQs and Fourth of July celebrations. In short time, this began to take effect and began to produce the unwillingness to work together and form common bonds. Now, it was - no longer friends - it's THEM vs. US. Now, animosity replaced kindness, spirited dialogue became insulting character assassination and outright hostility replaced any semblence of cooperation.

There are other guilty parties of course. But every time I see Newtie's fat, smug face, I remember that it was not always like this and that he played a big part in what we are left with now.

White trash. I finally agree with this pejorative because MAGATs are living proof that this substandard alternate culture have outed themselves.

Silly me used to think it was an unjust stereotype.

but you have expressed my feelings about these morons to a tee. I hope they get what they deserve, and what they deserve is to get Covid and leave our planet a better place.

My compassion is reserved for those who care about others.

I'm with you! I can't stand these MAGA morons who "protest" the very thing that is keeping them safe. I see their idiotic signs--"I want to get my hair cut!", "I want to go out to eat!" "COVID 19 is a hoax!", "Jesus will protect us from the virus!" and on and on. And they are so proud of their ignorance. I get sick of their smug grins and their pro-Trump signs. They act like they are being oh so bold! To hell with all of them.
And when I see these cretins my first thought is, "I hope you all get the virus and DIE!" I never thought I would entertain such thoughts about my fellow human beings but Trump-humpers have pushed me over the edge. I hate them. I hate them with every fiber of my being. They're heartless bigoted assholes who exist only to "own the libs". So I hope they all get the virus and die a long, painful death. I'm not proud that I feel that way but I do. The more that die the better off we are as a nation. So go ahead and protest you morons! Gather close together and breath on each other! Lick doorknobs for all I care. Do it to show us libs that the virus is a hoax! DO IT!
