Trump appoints two heads for coronavirus vaccine development effort ‘Operation Warp Speed’
President Trump on May 15 said
Moncef Slaoui, a former former pharmaceutical executive, and
four-star Army General Gustave Perna would lead the U.S. effort to develop a coronavirus vaccine.

Treatment is more urgent than vaccine.
It's like a bad parody movie

Why should I bother with you?
You've got twittering to do!
Every night at 7PM the people of New York City come out to their baloney and they cheer for our president and the great job he is doing.![]()
David Dennison is trying to call someone else a liar
They need to cheer for the governor who said all of the hospitals would overflow and who still allows wet markets
Get to work you fat piece of and wear a goddam mask in public
Why wear mask if you don't have it, if you aren't scared of getting it?
The old man just scared the out of the Cubby. I check the mail and find a letter from the IRS.
I thought: "Oh, me. Now what!" And on a Saturday no less, which is the new 3rd Friday (along with regular Friday, + Wednesday which was the new Friday) until Saturday became the 3rd Friday since (19) started.
False-a-dada! Just letting me know I'd got my 2400 smackers. Bless-his-heart.
The old-man!
Remember the guy who had to pay $25 million because he was running a fake university?
Notice the stark difference in tweets between these two.
November 2020: get out and vote Blue, no matter who it isPERIOD.
or who suckered $10Ms from investors to build casinos, MISmanaged them into bankruptcy, paid himself $80M, and walked away.
The Era of Stupid
President Trump’s moronic behavior is the defining feature of American life.
I have a suggestion for how we should define the Trump Years: The Era of Stupid.
in its simplicity and crudeness, it vividly captures the absurdity of our times.
There are so many “stupid” examples one can choose from:
Sharpie-gate;
the president’s talk of buying Greenland;
his musing on whether it’s possible to nuke a hurricane or
inject people with disinfectants;
his refusal, aped by many of his followers, to wear a mask in the midst of a global pandemic.
The list goes on and on.
But president’s latest fixation is perhaps Peak Stupid — “Obamagate.”
a tricky question: How does one pass judgment on something that doesn’t actually exist?
these accusations is that they elide some rather pertinent facts.
the FBI interview of Flynn happened after Trump took office in January 2017.
And how exactly was the Obama Administration targeting Flynn for unmasking when they could not have known Flynn’s iden y before the unmasking? (I feel stupid even writing this question.)
All of this is somehow connected to the Russia investigation, Trump suggests.
many of the unmasking requests from Obama administration officials appeared to revolve around Flynn’s shady dealings with the Turkish government, for whom he was lobbying.
the vast majority came before he got entangled in the Russia affair with his controversial call to Sergei Kisylak, the Russian ambassador to the United States — a call he lied about to the FBI. That lie was a crime, to which he later pleaded guilty.
there does seem to be a simple reason Flynn was regularly being unmasked by Obama administration officials —
he was engaging in behavior that merited unmasking requests.
the goal here is not to prove a crime,
it’s to suggest with raised eyebrows,
declarative tones, and
a wink and a nod that something bad happened.
What is that bad thing? Well no one really knows, but believe me — it’s bad. Really bad.
It’s bad like nothing you’ve ever seen.
in the Era of Stupid, many people seem primed to believe this bad thing they can’t actually describe.
The president said it’s true.
So did Tucker Carlson,
Rush Limbaugh, and
Sean Hannity.
It’s all over Facebook and
Fox News:
Michael Flynn is the most persecuted man since Nelson Mandela.
the president appears to actually believe that Obamagate is real.
Just as he clearly believes that the Russia investigation is a hoax.
Just as he once believed, and may still believe, that climate change is a Chinese plot.
Like his committed followers, he spends much of his day religiously watching Fox News.
He fervently believes right-wing conspiracy theories.
And because he’s president, he has a large and influential platform for regurgitating them for mass consumption.
when he spouts off, fellow Republicans, the White House staff, and conservative media embrace and amplify it.
The result is an entire political ecosystem
devoted to the propagation of stupid.
this is the time in which we are living;
when the stupid, mindless, and inane have not just entered the political mainstream,
but have come to define it.
All of us, whether we believe it or not, are stupider as a result.
