Trump, Reappearing and Deluding

PRESIDENT TRUMP suddenly reappeared for Covid19 briefings, having been absent from them for three months.Instead of proclaiming the viral epidemic a hoax, as he had previously, and insisting that the country would return to normal economic and social activity by Easter, and that the virus would vanish with the advent of warm weather, the president, evidently high on sodium pentathol, made a truthful statement. He said, and this is a quote; unfortunately, before the epidemic gets better, its probably going to get worse. thus the traitor in chief confirms what everyone else in the world has known for a considerable time, and did not need to be told. some have speculated that the president has not reached a lie total of nineteen thousand nine hundred and ninety nine, and did not want o go over the twenty thousand mark on national television. One is tempted to wonder why Trump bothers to say anything about the pandemic at all. The experts were missing from the stage; Trump evidently has decided that since  he is the only true expert on medical science in America, he might as well do everything himself. A vaccine, said the chief demagogue, is just right around the corner, totally terrific, very nice, making one wonder why he bothers to mention vaccines, since he assured us months ago that the virus will simply up and disappear, of its own accord, when the weather starts to warm up. the economy is also improving, doing great, just great, totally terrific, with the stock market going up. with only forty or fifty million Americans in poverty, and thirty million without jobs and living on unemployment, the economy is really starting to turn around, and its beautiful, said the deluder in chief.With about ninety percent of outstanding stock shares owned by about one percent of the population, and the government pumping money into the rigged market at a prodigious rate, it will naturally continue to appreciate, until Jeff Bezos has all the money in the world, there is a one hundred percent poverty and joblessness rate, and the Dow Jones average crashes through the fifty thousand point mark. Everything is just totally, trumpingly, beautifully, terrific.
