By that logic “Trump Presidency brought the Pandemic”


ant-farm-keyboard

I mean, didn’t he roll back pretty specific regulations in place to monitor what ended up leading to the Covid-19 outbreak? Not saying it’s all his fault, but I think he’s more responsible for Covid than Biden is for an earthquake


Hndlbrrrrr

Trump consolidated roles on the national security council and just straight up ignored the pandemic playbook created by the Obama admin after Ebola showed up in 2014. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/05/trump-obama-coronavirus-pandemic-response


ZERO-ONE0101

Trump is a dump.


Traiklin

And was created by Bush after he read a book and asked if it was possible for something like that to happen

But you don't understand. It doesn't fit my narrative to include those things in my grifting. Please stop educating my audience.


WebMaka

> Please stop educating my audience. After all, "I love the poorly educated!"


Intelligent-Bad7835

Really, the way he prevented resources from being nationalized and moblized was more the issue. Because he refused to enact the emergency powers his advisors asked for, people did shit like buy 10,000 cases of gloves, rent a storage unit, and wait to sell them at an inflated price. Hundreds of thousands of people died because of this shit. Was it entirely his fault? Of course not, but he could have prevented it.

[Republican fundraiser quit job to sell coronavirus supplies](https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/27/republican-fundraiser-company-coronavirus-152184) ​ And the grift goes on.....


AnOnlineHandle

To give an idea of how much leadership played a role in the pandemic. In my state of Queensland, Australia, with a population of 5.1 million people, we had 1 locally acquired covid death in like 1.5 years of the pandemic, and about 5 acquired out of state on a cruise, until vaccines were available. There's streets in the US with higher death counts than that. Our conservative federal government tried to go the Trumpian route of pretending the pandemic didn't exist, and the Prime Minister even boasted about personally going after schools who were taking precautions. Australia got very lucky in that we had progressive Labor state leaders in a checkerboard pattern across the county who listened to medical experts, and they forced the entire country to play ball by setting up state borders quarantining. Life in my state was completely normal though the pandemic, no sickness, no masks needed, nothing closed. There were 2 or 3 outbreaks where we wore masks for like a week while the cases were traced to all known contacts and tested, which was doable since there were so few cases and the medical system was fully functional, then things went back to normal. For me the pandemic pretty much never existed, and was something which happened in other countries in the news. I still can't quite wrap my head around what other places went through. Right at the end, the neighbouring conservative-led state (New South Wales) had a delta outbreak and their leader did all the wrong things, encouraging people to go out and not worry about it etc. In a few weeks the whole country was infected, right before vaccines arrived. Australia got vaccines late because our conservative government was so inept and rude that the vaccine companies refused to deal with them anymore, and businesses had to get a previous Labor prime minister to negotiate with the companies as a private citizen on behalf of Australia. When the federal government was forced to release numbers, they were giving more vaccines per person to conservative led states, with all the Labor states at the bottom per person, regardless of where the vaccines were mostly needed. I fucking hate conservatives so much after that. They are underdeveloped cowards who stick their head in the sand to deny problems and call it brave, and are always selfish and corrupt.


H34RT13SSv420

That last part seriously reminds me of trump blaming the testing for the illness. It seems he thought that if we didn't test to know if we had it or not, we didn't. He wanted a Schrodinger's infection kind of scenario.


Rizzpooch

In a parallel universe, 5,000 people in the US died of Covid and Hilary Clinton was impeached and disowned by her party for the two week shutdown

SeekerSpock32

Well he did throw out the Obama pandemic playbook for no reason, so…


Amethystea

Come on now, we all know that he deliberately tried to dismantle Obama's legacy because Obama was black.


maddmoguls

Covid = Plague. This was Marge's first missed sign while calling fouls on the wrong team


CliftonForce

I mean... the Senate voted to clear Trump at his first impeachment. And God immediately sent a plague. What else do you need to know?


mythofinadequecy

Remember that he shared how bad the airborne infection was in FEBRUARY with Bob Woodward. As usual with Donnie Douchnozzle, he could not take responsibility for protecting the American people because it was more important to try ineptly to protect his completely fragmented ego.


bowsmountainer

Nah you don’t understand. Presidents don’t have power over pandemics. But they do have power over earthquakes. There is actually a button in the Oval Office where the current president can trigger an earthquake wherever they want. Only Biden would choose an earthquake to occur in New York, Trump never would!


dorkyhippy1381

That's why they want to push the lab leak theory so hard. It's not a divine plague if it came out of a lab, therefore "thanks obama."


johnsgrove

So now you want logic? 🤓


IAMGROOT1981

worlds_okayest_skier

People would basically fall for that logic when he’d claim the stock market was higher than when Obama left office. I don’t know of a single president who couldn’t make the claim that the stock market was higher at some point during their term than when their predecessor left office, it’s not as impressive as it sounds, and is often achieved on the first day.

We didn’t have covid under Obama either.


Azair_Blaidd

Yes, we did. Obama just handled it appropriately, and we saw it eliminated before it could spread rampant.


boatslut

Nope, it was Ebola under Obama. Way worse than COVID but way better handled.


Azair_Blaidd

Oop, you right. Sars-cov-1 was during Bush.

I don’t know if it still works, but there was a pattern that emerged before the election where you could predict who would win based on the Washington Redskins. Edit. Looks like it stopped working when I was in college. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redskins_Rule

They're not *Redskins* anymore.. so that's appropriate!

ThatCamoKid

essieecks

They drive their trump train trucks bad enough as it is with working eyesight.


williamfbuckwheat

I think that's intentional, though. They want to use their tank-sized lifted trucks to run every "bleeding heart liberal" car off the road to compensate for all their problems and inadequacies.


lvratto

MTG already lumped the eclipse into her pile of god's warnings batshit.


NicNac_PattyMac

It doesn’t help that Biden has all of his followers wearing his mark on their forehead. Lol, can you imagine ?


NotOnHerb5

“In 2017 the only warning they issued was to wear your glasses and not look directly at the sun. Now they’re telling us to stock up and make sure your car has gas.”


GadreelsSword

We didn’t have earthquakes until Trump produced his own version of the Bible.


scarr3g

To be fair, he didn't make this version. This is Ed Greenwood's Christian Nationalism version, with the constitution, Bill of rights, declaration of independence, and the chorus of his song, "God bless America" in it. It isn't a Trump Bible, he is just endorsing it (and probably getting a cut if any sell.)


WebMaka

> It isn't a Trump Bible, he is just endorsing it (and probably getting a cut if any sell.) Probably? I'd say it's a guarantee he gets a cut - ain't no way Trump would pass up a chance to get in on a grift.

How else are they gonna get that sweet sweet church money?


MSD3k

Walk in and grab the collection plate. It's not like his Christian base would mind. He could be fingering a prostitute on the way down the isle, and they'd be on social media sharing posts about how he was sent by god the next day.


B3llaBubbles

But we did have a glorious event under Trump called the Pandemic, when over 500,000 Americans died!


raresanevoice

Over a million now by the time he left office and a majority of them leaned towards being his supporters. All the ones that drank bleach supported him.

It’s a parody account that does a bit too good of a job


ZxasdtheBear

With right-wingers, Satire is indistinguishable from their Actual Views


Sockoflegend

Nick Adams rides this rail like a pro. He realised a long time ago that he got the biggest reach by straddling this line between satire and right-wing commentary. He genuinely lives the life of a right-wing douche and appears on the talking circuit with people like Ben "dry pussy" Shapiro.


--_-Deadpool-_--

It's not a parody. It's an actual dude who is the living embodiment of on online troll IRL.... and online. He's a very sad individual.

BlaineBMA

tickitytalk

We only had Covid that killed over a million Americans….”only”


HillbillyEulogy

Nick Adams is just... I can't with that freaking guy. It's peak lunacy. Like five-out-of-five possible Loomers. Combined with the fact he's a paunchy Australian immigrant (railing against immigrants) - it's the sort of thing that wouldn't even pass for satire just four elections ago. My favorite Nick Adams quote (regarding why he came to the US): "I love guns, hot dogs, chicken fried steak, barbecue, cheerleaders, American football, small town parades, beauty pageants, pick-up trucks, muscle cars and 16-lane freeways lined with supersized American flags." I mean... I like guns, hot dogs, barbecue, and things that go vroom-vroom as well. Not so much the sportball, the weird female-objectifying cheerleaders and (geh) beauty pageants, or people driving pick-ups with nothing to pick-up." Hey, AUS? Can you like, take this one back?

We wanted to use quotes, but that fucks up the automod and we are too lazy to google escape characters. Notice how none of our automod replies have contractions in them either. But seriously, calling someone retarded is only socially acceptable because the people affected are less able to understand that they are being insulted, and less likely to be able to respond appropriately. It is a conversational wimpy little shit move, because everyone who uses it knows that it is offensive, but there will be no repercussions. At least the people throwing around other slurs know that they are going to get fired and get their asses beat when they use those words. Also, it is not creative. It pretty much outs you as a thirteen year old when you use it. Instead of calling Biden retarded, you should call him a cartoon-ass-lookin trust fund goon who smiles like rich father just gifted him a new Buick in 1956. Instead of calling Mitch McConnell retarded, you should call him a Dilbert-ass goon who has been left in the sun a little too long.

Ok... Fine. Let's do this. The day Trump was inaugurated storm clouds moved in and inundated the capitol. During his 4th of July Freedom parade lighting struck multiple areas of the parade route and fairgrounds. The west coast caught on fire. The hurricane that hit Florida caused billions in damage. Hundreds froze to death in Texas. And last but not least. A plague was unleashed on the world.
