The United States now has some 140,904 (and counting) cases of the coronavirus and a president who can’t read at grade level and struggles to add three-digit numbers. Social media has been bombarded with photos of hospitals looking like war zones and nurses wearing homemade protective gear; some have even taken to social media with the hashtag #GetMePPE.

On Wednesday, according to Mother Jones, “the Trump administration asked the international community for donations of equipment, including N-95 masks, gloves, respirators, and hand sanitizer. But even as his officials ask for foreign aid.”

Maybe we wouldn’t need help if the Clark Griswold of presidents didn’t send all our shit to China because he ignored scientists’ recommendation that the coronavirus was moving fast.

It’s part of the reason that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told CNN’s Jake Tapper Sunday morning that Trump’s got blood on his hands, not that he gives a shit.

“His denial at the beginning was deadly,” Pelosi said, Mother Jones reports. Trump’s bumbling fuckery and inability to get “equipment to where it’s needed, is deadly.”
