or they don't. Demand copies of tests.

Can't believe we are just blindly believing what these liars purport.

Then this past week I swear he was shaking hands with the crowd after the speech where he was standing in front of a log truck. Why would he do that other than he thought he had antibodies?

Or their positive thinking wasn't glass-half-full enough.

Any chance they met recently with a bunch of Repuke senators and attended fund-raisers with some of the donors who bankroll their criminal enterprise? I'd hate to think they might soon be dropping like flies. Life can be so unfair sometimes!

Irresponsible, inconsiderate and careless. What is it going to take, for someone in their damn circle to die before they get the point? Meanwhile, pence continues going to rallies where everyone is maskless.


Assholes.

Lock him up.

I find it all so careless and disgusting. They think they are maybe just exposing themselves However, they chance passing it along to everyone in their path. Then some poor health care workers get to deal with them as well.

Selfish beyond all sense.

Can you imagine having the bubble around them and the access to testing that these people have and they still get sick daily.

They don't wear masks and they get sick. It's a collective insanity.

from Covid in the air. So he works hard to spread it to other men, so that they can spread it to women (since he's not allowed near them), to make more bebbies.

It won't get tired. It can't be embarrassed. It has no political ideology. It won't give in. It silently kills without mercy. It won't cry "uncle."

MASK UP!!
