thought for the day: When the going gets tough...well, Trump will still be an asshole. Contrariologist
Former national security adviser and perennial fly in the liberal ointment John Bolton has condemned China for its handling of the coronavirus outbreak, and called for the rest of the planet to act swiftly and hold the Chinese government accountable. Mr. Bolton, please, just shut the fuck up. Just STFU, bro. Yeah, yeah, you want to re-establish your pro-war bona fides, but really, you need to STFU.
China "revealed" the appearance of the new, highly contagious in December 2019, and the World Health Organization gave it a name: 2019-nCoV. Focus on the numeric aspect of that designation: The WHO had defined and named the virus by the end of 2019. Yet, on March 8th, Trump was still alternately calling it a "hoax," or as not-a-hoax but "tremendously under control." Please, pray tell Mr. Bolton, if the Chinese government had revealed details about the virus a week or even a month earlier, what possible difference would that have made to the Fucktard-in-Chief? None. Absolutely none. So, as is your lifelong predilection, John, your only goal is to stir the pot and fan the flames for more military action! Now! Somewhere! Anywhere!
Just STFU, John. Thank you.
