Eric Trump says that all Democrats 'can talk about' is 'COVID' as US death toll exceeds 180,000

Eric Trump said Thursday that Democrats care to discuss only the coronavirus pandemic, as the US death toll surpassed 180,000.

"All they can talk about, Steve, is COVID," Trump told the Fux Noise host Steve Douchy in an interview. "COVID, COVID, COVID, and how Trump's a bad man

The younger Trump's remarks came as the US death toll inched past 180,000 this week, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. The US has the highest number of confirmed cases in the world, making up almost 25% of the total number of cases despite having just 4% of the planet's population.

Nearly 6 million Americans have tested positive for the disease so far, and millions have lost their jobs as states across the country keep schools and businesses shuttered to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

More American deaths than any war with the exception the WWII and the Civil War.

Eric Trump thinks it's funny?

Or at least that’s their game. I listen in to talk radio. The RNC is a glorious success. Trumps poll numbers are up. The DNC was a dark dystopian nightmare.

Etc.

What do you expect the president to do? Just because Obama stopped ebola cold by following the science, how could anyone know that would work again?

This entire family is like aliens disguised as humans who have no idea how our species is supposed to behave.

7. 180,000+ dead... 15 going down to almost zero is Trump's baseline for his personal death count.

He's desperate and he's throwing out as much bullshit as he can to try to deflect from his own crimes.

New York AG seeks to depose Eric Trump in investigation of Trump's finances:

see my relatives, I'm stuck at home (stupid tourists), getting groceries curbside, and on an on. And I'm lucky, I'm retired and have enough to eat.
Zoom calls are fun, but I miss everyone even more afterward.
So, yeah, until we can safely go to work, school, shops, restaurants, music concerts, travel, and just be together--you know, the things that make life fun and worth living--we're very aware of COVID and we're sick of quarantine! And grateful to be alive.
What a dolt.
