Work places, schools, small businesses are on lockdown in America. Yet, some are still delusional. Who is responsible for the spread of COVID-19? According to The New York Times’, David Brooks, anybody who voted for Donald Trump (flash forward to about 2:10):
Columnist Mark Shields and New York Times columnist David Brooks joined Judy Woodruff on the PBS news hour this past weekend. Brooks was angry, it’s been an “enraging” week, according to him.
Well, there are two issues. Maybe I should deal with them separately.
One is the political leadership issue, and one is the moral and social issue.
And just on political, I found it an enraging week. We sat here many years ago, when we saw images of Katrina and bodies floating in New Orleans. And I think both Mark and I felt a deep sense of anger.
And I feel a deep sense of anger that our government has responded so badly.
And, frankly, it’s — this is what happens when you elect a sociopath as president, who doesn’t care, who has treated this whole thing for the past month as if it’s about him, ‘how do people like me’, minimizing the risks, does the stock market reflect well on me, and he hasn’t done the things a normal human being would do, which was to, let’s take precautions.”-David Brooks
That’s funny. Certain, more eloquent sociopaths waited six whole months to tell the American people about H1N1. We didn’t have a vaccine for the Swine Flu back then, either. But Barack handled that one perfectly and in such a timely fashion, too, don’t you think? When the first person in the United States died of COVID-19, the President held a press conference. But then again, we are talking about David Brooks and his truth as an American-cough-(no, I don’t have a fever)-journalist puppet. David Brooks, the very same guy who thought Barack Hussein Obama would be a great president because of his perfectly-creased pant leg.
Honestly, I’m going to try run around this logic. Way back in 2016, in the days before lockdowns and social distancing, lived an old witch who wanted to be our president. Arguably, she was, is and always will be, a sociopath. To some of us, it was a no-brainer to vote for Trump. Now, according to some, this is what happens when we, the people, elect a sociopath whose name is Donald Trump. David Brooks told us so. It doesn’t matter people caught a virus that originated in a foreign communist country run by another sociopath (Xi) but the ones who elected this President are to blame, according to Brooks. This is all the fault of Trump voters, you see. China knew about the novel coronavirus as early as November. Patient zero entered our borders at SeaTac International in January. But why are people in our country sick now? Because Trump is a sociopath and we are the miserable human beings who voted for him.
According to Brooks, Trump should have listened to his advisers and done things a “normal human being should do“. Because Brooks, clearly in his delusional mind, thinks he is a normal human being showing off his TDS on taxpayer-funded PBS whilst people have loved ones who are sick and us healthy folks are trying not to get sick or get the ones we love sick. It makes you wonder, who are the truly sick people here? That, to me, is enraging.
Mr. Brooks, we are so sorry we caused a pandemic by voting for a sociopath. Come again-who are our alternatives for November? As far as I can see, the Democrats bring forth a communist-loving sociopath and a creepy, greasy, senile, blithering sociopath. Our options are stellar. Thanks for the shaming, Brooks, but I think I’ll happily cast my vote for the stock-market obsessed one again.

It is completely unfair to blame Trump for this virus problem. Government cannot solve all problems, and the ones it can solve cannot always be solved quickly. If you wish to direct blame at our government…direct it at the CDC. That agency is a joke.
And I feel a deep sense of anger that our government has responded so badly.
You were a Louisianan at the time?! Really?
who has treated this whole thing for the past month as if it’s about him
How did we start talking about 0bama in this?
he hasn’t done the things a normal human being would do
You mean the things a normal authoritarian politician would do. (Because, yeah, he took precautions – at least one of which probably protected America more than anything else.)
Oh, and how about that Dutch guy taking my suggestion for herd immunity? Loads of people freaking out about it.
If David Brooks is what passes for our “elite” then I thank God I am not part of the elite.
This reflects his fear that the manner in which the President has handled this will boost his re-election campaign. To help stop the spread of the Chinese virus and its attendant derangement syndrome, I would quarantine each and every member of the MSM.
Lisa my dearheart, you will always be a warrior . .. pointing out the depth of depravity that permeates so much of our society. There’s the corrupt DEEP STATE (to deny its existence means having cognitive skills that are definitely defective…) & the media (spelled with a big “M”) that exclusively and utterly regurgitates mutilated&distorted “information” in an effort to supply “low density consumers” …. and now we’re bearing witness to the beginning days of THE YEAR ZERO while being screamed at by the delusional misanthropes and other haters of this President and this Republic…
These same reality challenged “truth talkers” will NEVER explain the pernicious conduct of the chicom genocidal world-domination seeking regime in the WUHAN VIRUS world calamity … or how our elected representatives are in a headlong rush to forge our future chains a TRILLION dollar link at a time… thank you for your efforts
you continue ON MISSION ma’am & God Bless
