Meanwhile, from the leader of our once-great country…

For what it’s worth, he did send out a followup seven minutes later saying, “Federal Government is working very well with the Governors and State officials. Good things will happen! #KILLTHEVIRUS”

Maybe someone had a word with him. I don’t know who that would be, though, since pretty much all of the grownups have left his administration.

And yeah, I’m still using that plug-in on my Chrome browser that renders Trump’s tweets in a special typeface. They come in the regular old way on my phone and iPad. But somehow this seems to bring out their essence….

You know, there’s nothing new about this. But as many times as we’ve seen this kind of childishness, I still have to ask my self occasionally, What kind of person, in a leadership position, thinks that is something appropriate to publish for the world to see?

    By the way, regarding my headline, that is, the reference to “our once-great country.”

    Our country was great until just recently. For whatever reason, the American electorate chose not to be great for awhile.

    I expect it will be great again before long…

    So that’s California, Washington, Illinois, Michigan, New York, And Virginia as states where Trump has childishly ridiculed the governor’s. Oh, and Puerto Rico in general.

    Did I miss others?

    I’m thinking maybe Ivanka has some understanding of how to manage him. Trump’s tone about the virus changed pretty significantly in the last couple of days. I believe she may be the only person on earth that can speak truth to him and have him listen.
