“It Is What It Is”

I defy anyone to watch the interview that was going around social media yesterday.

The reporter - Swann - pushed back when Trump tried his double-talk about how wonderful America has handled the virus response.

Swann: “There are a thousand Americans a day dying.”

Trump: “People are dying. Yes. It is what it is.”

That sentence should be enough to get him removed from every ballot in every single state.

But there was so much more.

Trump: “There were no tests left for me.”

Swann: “How could there be tests? There was no virus!”

When he was asked about the woman he wished well who happens to be charged with child sex trafficking he said that he does wish her well!

He’s attacking the post office because he’s convinced there’s massive voter fraud. There’s no record of it happening ever.

Trump: “Some people believe that a lot of tests aren’t necessary.”

Swann: “Where you getting that?”

Trump: “Read the manuals. Read the books.”

Swann: “What books?”

There were zero answers. Trump looked unprepared, colossally stupid, and childish.

It actually looked like something that you might see in a bad movie.

And yet:

Construction Worker: “Yeah. He’s not polished and he says some really dumb things, but he’s a businessman and he’s shaking things up. I’m voting for him again.”

Me: “Bah!”

On Tuesday he mangled the pronunciation of ‘Yosemite.’

He said:

Yo - sa - mite.

How is that even possible?

Here’s the bottom line:

He’s despicable.

He has dementia.

He will step over a million dead bodies to save himself.

He’s a fraud.

A career criminal and a conman.

He’s also a Russian agent.

That’s the truth, and there’s not a whole lot we can do about it.

“It is what it is.”
