Watching Last Week Tonight has been less funny and way more depressing.
Trumpās gonna somehow come out of this smelling like roses and will win the 2020 election. Fucking Civil War is gonna break out at this rate.

I just kinda dont expect good things to happen anymore. And I was easily one of the most optimistic people on this forum up until 2 months ago

On the flip side. If society totally breaks down because this thing gets so bad, weāre drawing live to something like this.

60 Minutes did a piece on this guy a week ago. Scary shit. Basically paying people to have white babies. Keep Hungary Hungarian, etc. Their population has been declining for a long time. Ripe field for craziness to take hold and possibly spread.

there isnāt going to be a civil war. Might get some states to seriously think about leaving though.
Can one of these fucking bum journalists ask him about sending china literally 18 tons of PPE in February today
JFC. Trump is like the worst employee ever. Does the minimum to not get fired and expects all kinds of praise while doing it.
āI know Iāve been late to work almost everyday, but remember that day 3 weeks ago when I made it on time and you didnāt acknowledge it? Iām underappreciated.ā

Orban has been a wannabe dictator for quite a while. Heās an influential figure in the VisegrĆ”d Group (basically Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, and Slovakiaās mini-EU). Thankfully, Slovakia has avoided it by electing a progressive (by Eastern Euope standards) leader and the Czech Republic has so far been able to fight off a slew of right-wing parties looking to take over Chamber of Deputies. Poland, unfortunately, has aligned itself with Russia and is doing what Russia did which is using the church as a propaganda arm to gain the zealotry of a large number of people.
The CR has the penalty for violating quarantine (up to 10 years in prison) but the rest has not happened hereā¦yet. Thank God the election here isnāt until 2021.
His hospital boat fetish is extreme.
So amazing.
Itās another one of those ālook what I didā things. He will cling to it for months, just like he continuously seeks kudos for restricting travel from China. You know, when the virus was already here.

Question for the movie buffs, have any of the pandemic movies captured the issue with lack of PPE, ventilators etc? I really havenāt seen many of the related movies and was just curious if it is something Hollywood foresaw to any degree.
Edit: wrong thread argh
