‘We’re Not Going to Control the Pandemic,’ Trump’s Chief of Staff Says

President Donald Trump’s chief of staff said the U.S. is “not going to control” the pandemic even as he defended the White House response to the coronavirus after infections of close aides to Vice President Mike Pence.

Mike Pence's chief of staff, Marc Short, has tested positive for coronavirus infection this week, bringing the pandemic into the vice president's inner circle.



Earlier Saturday, Bloomberg News reported that one of Pence's closest political advisers, Marty Obst, had also been infected by the virus, adding further to the cases in and around the White House.




Short is Pence's top aide, a constant presence in his company who frequently acts as a public spokesman for the vice president. Pence, who delivered a campaign speech in Tallahassee, Florida on Saturday evening, has not reported a positive test. Pence's office confirmed his diagnosis in a statement late Saturday.

Why didn't they use that Vaccine Trump said he had last week? 🤔

 

[Buckle]

What a fucking shitshow.

Good luck with herd immunity.

[TheHunter]

Just this on repeat until January I guess.

 

[Sol C. Johnson]

[SnatcherHunter]

Who gives a shit about whether Trump beat it? This is terrible for them politically, and it's stupid and dangerous. That's what matters.

When Trump said we're rounding the turn did he mean in a circle?

"I beat it twice. dont let it run your life"

 

[bwahhhhh]

Well, we were told there was nothing else they could have done to avoid it last time *shrug* Clearly they were still doing their best. Just bad luck, I guess. Funny how the dems keep avoiding it, though. Sabotage? Russia?

Crazy how much a person's appearance changes when they use all of their facial muscles instead of appearing as the malcontent supervillain they are at all times.
