Trunp was going to the CDC yesterday. Then, he wasn’t and the media had a field day for all of five minutes talking about what an irresponsible President he is. Then, he was visiting the CDC in Atlanta again. Yes, Trump did make it to the CDC yesterday to get the latest updates on COVID-19 and to call Washington State governor, Jay Inslee, as “snake“. The feud between the two has been ongoing:

Less Tweeting, a little more listening. Sure, Jay…

I just received a call from @VP Mike Pence, thanking Washington state for our efforts to combat the coronavirus.

I told him our work would be more successful if the Trump administration stuck to the science and told the truth.

Inslee met with Vice President Mike Pence on Thursday to work together with the administration to curb the coronavirus outbreak here in my home state of Washington. While all seemed to be productive between Pence and Inslee, Trump was not having any of it:

I told Mike (Pence) not to be complimentary to the governor, because that governor is a snake,” Trump said. “I said, ‘If you’re nice to him, he will take advantage.’ Let me just tell you, we have a lot of problems with the governor . . . so Mike may be happy with him, but I’m not.”-Donald Trump

Yes, people are dying. Yes, was Trump a tinge on the immature side when he called Inslee a snake? Bad timing?Perhaps just a little. But Trump isn’t 100% wrong here and he calls them as he sees them. Jay Inslee and Washington State Democrats for the most part are useless. I mean, what is the point of voting on $30 car tabs when we end up paying hundreds of dollars for them anyway? Why? “Transit improvements”, or something, they say. How about a campaign flush with millions from state worker unions? And, let’s not even discuss the amount of Washington taxpayer money that funded his short-lived Presidential campaign to be the “climate candidate”.

The only conclusion that you can reach from how much Trump hates on Jay Inslee is that Jay Inslee tells the truth, he is a person of integrity, and he is trying genuinely to help the people in his state of Washington.

Seriously? Jay Inslee has NOT been present as a governor in Washington. Like a snake, he hides underground until an opportunity to be in the limelight surfaces. When he can be seen, he goes on a late show and talked about what “great weed” we have in Washington. He goes on national television to offer his condolences to the family of the first COVID-19 victim. After the opportunities present themselves, Inslee slithers back into his hole…while Washington falls apart around him and he is completely oblivious. A large mental hospital loses funding because it couldn’t maintain compliance on Inslee’s watch. The result? A mental health crisis in the state, increased homelessness and increased drug use amongst these populations. We have corrupt, liberal politicians in our larger cities in the state, all with Inslee at the helm. While Inslee is talking about saving the Orcas and a “housing crisis“, Seattle is a cesspool laden with mentally ill individuals who need medical attention, illegal RVs dumping sludge into the streets and tent encampments of home-free individuals with substance-abuse problems who leave their dirty needles for toddlers to step on. Those who turn to crime in our cities spend maybe a night in jail before they get sprung only to continue the cycle-again and again and again.

He is right on. Inslee hasn’t done anything for Washington except raise taxes when he promised he wouldn’t ! VOTE HIM OUT!!! pic.twitter.com/9XJIPqN4VM

We now have an even more serious health issue with the most COVID-19 issues to date in the U.S. Why? I’m convinced because Washington State has been the hot mess that it has been for years thanks to Jay Inslee. It is getting worse by the day. Inslee’s policies in our state have made our hometowns perfect breeding grounds for a potentially deadly virus. Slithering Jay. Yes, Inslee is a snake. Trump is not wrong.
