of at least a half-million Americans is to argue — nonsensically — that the virus came out of the Wuhan virology lab and therefore something, something, something Trump is not responsible. He’s doing this with House Oversight Committee hearings this week.

    This might be a hot take, but I think Trump is too dumb himself to have done this the way the article frames it. He is EMPHATICALLY responsible for the deaths of many, and for varied reasons, but he’s simply not intelligent or thoughtful enough to have planned anything further than a few days ahead for political points.

    His puppet masters though… different story. I 100% believe that the massive pieces of shit surrounding him manipulated him into doing some truly horrific things that led to more deaths than needed.

    You really think a racist/classist turd like Stephen Miller didn’t realize that the poor were obviously more at risk of infection and survival, and that the majority of those infected and dying would be in urban areas which largely vote Democrat? That little soulness asshat is probably more culpable for anything truly devious, like the kids in cages thing. He was gleefully laughing when asked about it the first time that was outed.
