Jim Jordan (R-OH) speaks during a hearing before the Coronavirus Crisis Subcommittee of House Oversight and Reform Committee June 26, 2020 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.

Gym Jordan, who famously did not (allegedly, anyway) intervene on behalf of student athletes when he coached wrestling at THE Ohio State University, appears all too willing to put young men in harm’s way for a little coronavirus-enhanced sportsing this fall.

America needs college football.

And the tweets just write themselves.

Apparently it's not only wrestlers that Jim Jordan is willing to put in danger.

Jim hates the thought of all those locker room showers empty and unused.

Your wrestlers needed you to stand up for them, Gym.
What America NEEDS is to get the #TrumpVirus under control.

If #TraitorTrump would have taken things seriously from the start, everything could have been back to normal by now. #GymJordanKnew #GymJordanResign pic.twitter.com/uMh4d3iyNr

Hey, I love college football (go Badgers!), but I like healthy, pink lungs even more. We all want things to get back to normal, but only one party is shouting “rah, rah ‘rona” while bringing oats and crispy apples to the First Horseman of the Apocalypse’s pestilent nag.

And Jim Jordan? Shouldn’t he be in jail or something? Just a thought.
