OH. MY. GOD. Trump starts by trying to create fear about drug cartels & the threats of illicit drugs. Absolutely insane. Jesus Christ. DOCTORS, NURSES, HEALTHCARE WORKERS, HOSPITALS NEED HELP!!!! Honestly, I’m sorry, but I loathe this man and all the other pigs that support him.

So yesterday Trump announced a war on covid-19 and said 200k or more Americans could die.
today: a war with the drug cartels.

prevnextMore Trump lackeys being paraded to the mic equating coronavirus with illegal drugs coming in from Mexico. Even with thousands of Americans dying, this administration finds time to advance it's shitty, xenophobic agenda.

We now return to our regularly scheduled "war on drugs" segment already in progress. #WagTheDog
What the hell is Trump doing, why the hell is war on drugs which enforcement of makes worse and Iran more important then what we are dealing with right now?

So the troops are going to have to risk exposure to the virus in order to provide tRump with a distraction from his incompetence?

In today's episode of Presidential Apprentice, Trump trots out Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Gen. Mark Milley to warn everyone about the drug cartels who "will try to take advantage” of the coronavirus pandemic.

Mil Mission Announced By Trump
— X22 Report (@X22Report) April 2, 2020
Think Logically
1. During a global pandemic why would you launch a mission with 22 partner nations
2. Why go after the cartels? Power structure of the [DS]
3. Trump mentioned a woman they rescued from Honduras, why?
4. What's the real target?
prevnextCan somebody plz explain to me why everybody has to kiss trumps ass every time the whitehouse has a press conference..... we have a damn pandemic and this idiot is talking bout some damn drug cartels, who the fuck cares..???

Seriously? We're ramping up the war on drugs? This isn't a coronavirus press conference. This is a distraction and more ass covering for the continuing abysmal response of the Trump administration.

prevnextDear media: somber Trump is merely tranquilized Trump. He is a drug abuser; don't fall for his heightened War on Drugs distraction!

Today's press briefing: "Quick, look over there, not here." The problem is drugs, not Trump's lack of timely leadership.
