Dr. Bright: "We're in deep shit."

Dr. Bright: "I'll never forget the emails I received from [mask manufacturer] Mike Bowen indicating that our mask supply, our N95 respirator supply was completely decimated. And he said, 'We're in deep shit. The world is. And we need to act.'"

There definitely IS that.

His behavior is now being described as akin to what despots do as they run their governments and countries (into the ground).

So viewed through that filter, in contact with that background knowledge and observation of his behavior and what he can be expected to do and say, in reaction.

It's been three-and-a-half years, friends. He ain't no newby. Especially when we look at a track record of his behavior over years, scandals, bankruptcies, scummy "deals," promises made and broken, lies told, and other hallmarks of UNCLEANLINESS.

The overall impression that this leads to, and leaves you with, is that this is a scummy guy. Sneaky and duplicitous and ONLY in it for himself. The lies. The blaming. The distractions. The shifting stories. The manipulations. He's a master of the chess game from Hell. But hopefully we have one or two on OUR side, to know what to do and what exact defensive tactics/technicques/strategies to use or dream up to defeat it and deflect the blows coming from him.

They tried to teach this stuff in karate class. Watch the behavior of the opponent. Watch what they do - kinda easy since you don't talk in karate school. The instructor talks and explains, and you spar. Watch what they do. It might help you anticipate their next move, and be ready to deflect or otherwise handle the next blow coming from the opponent. Focus. But don't forget what's in your peripheral vision!

Today's testimony is plainly laying out the failure of this admin to provided needed PPE and is revealing corruption in the handling of procurement.

..... Raygunz used to address the Aids Crisis.

For two years Raygunz did nothing and Aids ran rampant. trDumpie felt - okay,.. Raygunz got away with ignoring the Aids Crisis and suffered no consequences. Why can't trDumpie ignore the Covidvirus Pandemic disown its entire existence,... down play the reality the Covidvirus is killing people.

Then come election time trDumpie sails into a second term without the taint of Covid smearing his perfectly perfect first four years in the White People's - White House.

Greasing the skids for trDumpie's second term in the Oval Office with another four years of trDumpie's paper mache economy built on wet quick sand and saturated swamp land.
