Trump Contracts A Hoax.

The most stupid man ever to be elected President of the United States has contracted Coronavirus - a disease that he once described as a "Democratic Hoax". While he has been able to ignore over 200,000 deaths in his country, has encouraged right-wing madmen to roam the streets of the USA armed to the teeth, organised mass meetings with no precautions or provisions to prevent spreading the disease and has poured scorn on those wearing masks, he has now gone into isolation to prevent him from infecting others. The pity is that he wasn't placed into quarantine years ago to prevent him spreading his vile and hateful prejudices. The suspicion lingers, however, that his isolation has come at a very convenient time. His showing in the first Presidential debate was woeful. Unable to answer sensibly any questions regarding policy he was only able to heckle and insult Joe Biden in a show of bombast that demonstrated to all sensible people that he is nothing more than a playground bully. He is trailing in the polls as Americans in general and those foolish enough to vote for him last time see that the Emperor has no clothes and that he has made the once all-powerful United States into an international joke. The suspicion also arises that, like Boris Johnson in the UK, Trump will make a miraculous recovery just in time to garner sympathy for his non-existent brush with death. It is not fashionable to wish others ill, but Trump himself is no follower of fashion and has scant sympathy for others suffering from Coronavirus while he has no regard even for his own supporters - people he has openly encouraged to catch and spread the disease. As they say in the UNited States, "Kharma is a bitch".
