"This Is So Unfair to Me": Trump Whines About His COVID-19 Victimhood as Campaign Flails

So unfair indeed

The dead and those whose bodies have been ravaged by this virus would gladly trade places with the sociopath in chief.

Keep it up Donnie,this is easy pickin's............

Over 1.6 million people in the United States have tested positive for coronavirus.
Almost 100,000 have died.
Nearly 40 million Americans have filed for unemployment.

Trump was briefed on this threat in January. This full-blown public health crisis didn’t have to happen.

The carnage is his responsibility and he must reap the rancid harvest he’s sown. For once in his miserable life he must be held accountable.

same sh!t, different day

When he says things like this, that defy reality, he's begging someone to agree with him to take his guilt and anxiety away IMO. Reporters who refuse to validate his delusions (in other words, most all of them) are the targets of his wrath. I'll bet this is why Twitter and rallies are his preferred modes of communication; it's so easy to find validation there.

Anything that is not adulation is attack, disloyalty, betrayal! Or, at the very least, disregarded with prejudice & sniveling.

Joe and Mika really get under his skin because in Trump's eyes they used to be "friends."

And we know how Shitstain feels about dogs. "Dog" is like his ultimate personal slam.

Use your name and get trashed.

Provide the comment anonymously, and the reporter gets trashed.

what an understatement. Maybe he should donate his brain to science. I'm sure there's nothing like it.

... nothing to it?

but I don't think he was "cruising to reelection" before the pandemic. He was hardly as popular as he believes. Now he will just lose by more votes.

Article 25.....NOW

If he had just done a good job handling this crisis, all he really needed to do is step aside and let the experts do their thing. He might have walked away with an easy reelection. Look at Cuomo, he would have been a shoe in for reelection. All he did was implement what the experts laid out for him, and talk to the people nicely.

No one would have blamed him for the economy tanking.

He was so worried about keeping his job that he didn't do his job.

He had the opportunity to be leader, healer, and so much more. Hero even.

More worried about himself than about serving his country.

I sure as hell expected him to behave exactly the way he did. He's never given any indication that he was capable of anything more.

He's had probably 100 or more opportunities to do a Cuomo (qv), and make people shrug their shoulders at his other missteps and ignorant rantings.

He could have done that just before day 1, with the 1st Women's March, for instance. He's such a phenomenal liar, why can't he face people and tell them some surprising, empathic-sounding BS, & take the wind from their sails? Even if it's a complete lie, we are all such suckers for a smooth-talking storyteller....

He's just not capable of anything like this. He's never going to get any better, and he's apparently surrounded by equally malevolent personalities who are not helping either.

It's a long poem, but buried in there is the thought that in the end, leadership is about keeping your head in a crisis. People will actually be drawn to the person that in a crisis, stays calm and takes on the sense of responsibility for handling the crisis, freeing those around them to feel free to act without concern of being held responsible. You don't have to be the smartest, or know all the answers. You don't even have to know how to "fix" things. But if you'll just project the impression that "you've got this" people will support you and help you.

The converse is what we are seeing. In a crisis, the "leader" who starts seeking blame, looking to divert responsibility, and generally trying to figure out how to protect themselves from responsibility, will quickly find themselves standing alone with no one wanting to help. I've seen it more than once.

When I was leading a large team, something really bad happened and it wasn't clear at all that there was an answer. People were afraid of being fired. I called them all into a room and explained that, as team leader, regardless of what went wrong, if anyone was going to get fired, it was going to be me, so stop worrying. For one thing, I said, my bosses needed the people on my team in hopes of fixing this. Work the problem and let me handle the bosses. I came within days, nay, hours of being fired when one of the team members came in and showed proof that the problem was buried in a mistake by a subcontractor. One, that fortunately for me I had advised we not use. I told the team member that he had just saved my job. He looked proud as a peacock. But more importantly, the team had been working hard to find the cause, because they knew there would be a "reward" for finding it, not punishment for not finding it.

Trump could have gone on TV in early January and said what a risk we were facing and that we had to pull together as a country for the better part of a month, "to save us all" and our future. He would have sailed into a second term. But it meant he would have had to take direct responsibility for something that may, or may not, have worked.

Your father heartlessly chose not to pull out.

... so I guess he HAS been treated unfairly!

To not just Hillary, the far more qualified candidate, but to the American citizens and to the American way of life.

He brought it on himself.

GROW UP, Pendejo!

if the USPS has to deliver these when ordered from Amazon!!!

Learn from your mistakes, or die.

So far, we haven't learned a thing.

We hope to turn on a dime, though. Near future, certainly.

And he's going up against Joe "A Noun, A Verb, and 9/11" Biden this time -- an opponent who knows a few things about counter-attacking.

I think his next “performance review” will take place in a woodshed. Probably in July.
One the “positive“ side, COVID-Donnie has brought our nation down so deep, so quickly, that Putin or Xi can seize numerous and huge opportunities like low-hanging fruit.
However, the “negative” would be his likely failure to get re-elected, and that would force his handler to take drastic measures.
This is why the toddler-in-chief is trying to block absentee ballots, torpedo the RNC convention, not to mention daily (hourly?) twit-storms and shit-storms. Dog only knows what other desperate actions are ahead!

Well, if that's the only issue that they see as dangerous, they are no friends of ours.

When Nixon got an intervention, there were a few remaining Republicans with a sense of honor and patriotism, and he ended up resigning.

Doesn't sound like that's going to happen here.

There is something seriously wrong with a party that supports him.

There is something seriously wrong with people who voted for him.

Just voting Trump out is only part of the solution to the problem. It goes way, way deeper than that. Democratic party has a lot of repair work to do once Trump gets voted out/dies from COVID-19/recalled by his alien overlords. (Delete all options you consider less pleasurable.)

Your own incompetence and arrogance has brought you to this point.

Truck Fump!

And diaper Don tries to make it about himself.
