I’m sorry.
I’m laughing, because I need to.
I just can’t sit in anger, dismay, outrage, helplessness and incredulousness, all day long.
This statement by one of Trump’s minions, sounds straight out of Orwell’s 1984 (or The Onion):
Mr. Trump frequently vents about how he is portrayed. He was enraged by an article this month in which his health secretary, Alex M. Azar II, was said to have warned Mr. Trump in January about the possibility of a pandemic. Mr. Trump was upset that he was being blamed while Mr. Azar was portrayed in a more favorable light, aides said. The president told friends that he assumed Mr. Azar was working the news media to try to save his own reputation at the expense of Mr. Trump’s.
Hogan Gidley, a White House spokesman, disputed that the president’s focus was on his news coverage, but said in a statement that
“President Trump’s highest priority is the health and safety of the American people.”
I nearly swallowed my tongue laughing, after I read that.
They’ve stopped even trying to make the lies plausible any more.
And…………...Hogan Gidley?
He previously served as a Junior Deputy Press Secretary to U.S. President Donald Trump from 2017 to 2019, before being appointed to succeed Raj Shah as Deputy Press Secretary.
Wow, he must be so proud. He’s 44 years old. His career’s shooting to the stars!!!!
Reminds me of Dwight Schrute
