Lord Donaldemort hopes Coronavirus will 'just disappear'?

President Trump, as if waving an invisible magic wand, wished COVID19 away. ‘I think we are going to be very good with the Coronavirus. I think that, at some point, that it's going to sort of just disappear, I hope.’ Hmmm. This comes as Donald’s United States of COVID19 recorded 43,000 new cases in just one day. Gawd Bless America! The Lone Trumper? Donald’s own Republican Party called for the President to wear a mask in public, to set a good example. Donald had resisted wearing a mask, saying it would be unseemly for the commander-in-chief to wear a mask as he meets heads of state. Changing his tune, he assured America that he does wear one. ‘I sort of liked the way I looked. It was a dark black mask and I thought it looked OK. It looked like the Lone Ranger.’ For any millennials out there, the Lone Ranger is a fictional masked ex-Texas Ranger, who rode the Old West shooting bad guys. Just wear the f***ing mask, Ke-mo sah-bee! The masked Democrat? As waves of COVID1...

Donnie Darth-O, COVID19 and 4 more TRUMPet blowing years?

Should Donald Trump’s re-election campaign line be, ‘May The Farce Be With You’? In the run-up to the presidential election in November, the U.S. is quickly descending into farce. In Georgia, traditionally a Republican stronghold, the Democrats chances of winning a special election were scuppered by COVID19, George Floyd protests, ballots failing to arrive, voting machines malfunctioning, provisional ballots running out and Uncle Tom Cobley and all! Carry On Up the Ballot Box! Questions, questions! Will President Trump actually make it to November? The U.S. now has a record 2 million cases of COVID19, with a death toll of over 115,000 and rising. Civil unrest, with ‘Black Lives Matter’ protests are reminiscent of post Martin Luther King’s assassination, in 1968. As Trump’s tenure in the White House lurches from one crisis to another it will be viewed by history, as a low point of the Republic. Is the System broken? Rumour has it that Republicans are prepared to lose the White House, ...

Why COVID19 America Can’t Breathe!

The killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, was the straw that finally broke Black America’s back. They collectively screamed, ‘Enough is enough!’ In the six years since Black Lives Matter, went from a hashtag to an International Movement, has anything really changed in the America of Donald Trump? For George Floyd, there’s an endless list of names you can replace his with. Breonna Taylor, Armaud Arbery,  Eric Garner,  Jamar Clark, Marcus Golden, Cordale Hardy, on and on it goes. So, when will the killing of black people actually matter and when will it stop?   Coronavirus: The other knee on Black America’s neck. George’s televised death coincided with a Coronavirus pandemic, that goes out of its way to devastate Black America. With African Americans only making up 14% of the population, one third of U.S. COVID19 deaths come from their community. Why is this? For a start Black Americans hold down dangerous frontline jobs. Then they go home to densely populated a...
