The Masque of the Red Death

It all seems so inevitable that Donald Trump would succumb because of hubris, and his blatant disregard of the facts.

And it remains difficult not to feel schadenfreude and not to laugh at the Covid Joker himself. As Marina Hyde says:

God knows, it’s excruciatingly hard to chirp “Get well soon!” to this particular patient, but … get well soonish. Those of us who want to escape the cesspool Trump has helped drag the world into will wish him a better time with the virus than the one to which he blithely condemned so many of those he was elected to serve. Each to their own, but I’m against all forms of the death penalty, karmic or otherwise.

But still, it is what it is, eh, Donald?
