The nation-wide 'stay-at-home' edict has more Americans sitting in front of their television digesting unhappy reporting and often times stupidity spewed from the lips of elected officials. On the latter, let me share this week's most ridiculous politician's remarks. It's an indisputable fact that the Trump administration was delinquent in an early response to this coronavirus; that is well documented. That said, we also know that 'The Donald' would never assume responsibility for anything as long as he has his fall-back excuse to blame his predecessor, the Black President.
I digress. Back to that dumb politician's comments from the mouth of Kentucky US Senator, Mitch McConnell who is trying out a 'new' excuse hoping it might fly. Are you ready? Mitch says, "The impeachment trial distracted our government from the threat of the coronavirus." In simpler terms, our government cannot walk and chew gum at the same time. Yeah, that sounds reasonable, heavens, I recall when coaching basketball and my team lost a Friday night game because they were studying that week for final exams. Pray for me, I need to stop yelling at people on television.
Speaking of television, I've noticed that many television anchor people who have been reporting the daily depressing numbers of growing virus cases and deaths are beginning to display 'doom and gloom' expressions. Day in and day out these television personalities are immersed in crisis communication and just as frontline healthcare workers, the physical and emotional expense is significantly noticeable.
We need some humor and levity once in awhile on the tube. Where then hell is Rudy Giuliani when you need him?
