Saboteur-in-chief won't 'close the country' for 'second wave' of Covid-19

dimanche 24 mai 2020 à 02:00

*As Warnings Mount of So-Called 'Second Wave' of Covid-19, [the saboteur-in-chief] Says He Won't 'Close the Country' Again.*

Of course he won't. After working so hard to keep the US unprepared, and for "reopening" which will start the second wave, he would hardly waste the opportunity to convert that into actual deaths.

If you're not a sheep, you don't need a pastor.
