(Our two step plan to save America: 1) Bailouts for American workers. 2) Gofundme for Wall Street.)

     The rich aren't like you and me. For starters, they have bomb shelters. Luxurious bomb shelters with 18 hole golf courses, retail shops and armed security.

---

     And yet, some people still wonder why the South will never rise again. I give you Florida Woman.

---

     At least the coronavirus news isn't all bad.  Still, I have to wonder. How did Harvey Weinstein get a test, in prison, and the rest of us can't get one.

---

     Over 15,000 dead all over the world and his feelings are hurt.

---

    This is my idea of a leader. All you Biden bots- Where's your guy? He hasn't been seen in A WEEK.

---

     Meanwhile, Trump's base springs into action.

---

     Man making hundreds of millions off presidency whines about losing billions he never had.

---

     In short, bailing out my hotels is capitalism. But using the Defense Production Act to make much-needed medical supplies is a Socialist takeover of private industry. Gotcha.

---

     Meme intermission.

---

     Can you imagine what a total disaster this clown would be if he actually was a wartime president?

---

     So, you're willing to die for the economy, Patrick? Sure, let's put that to the test, asshole.

---

     Oh yeah. NOW he wants bipartisanship. This is the same asshole with 400 House bills on his desk that STILL haven't gotten a vote.

---

     This is what happens when you to work for a shitty Republican mayor whom you think would be a great Democratic president.

---

     When even Fox can't keep ignoring Trump's incompetence.

---

     Christian superhero wants to reopen businesses on Easter.

---

    Well, isn't this nice? Pampered billionairess playing at Education Secretary is offered a softball interview on Fox "News."

---

     The WH Correspondents Dinner was just postponed.

---

     Ann Coulter proves the Master Race isn't quite so masterful in basic math.

---

    "Trump told the Fox News town hall that he has no intention of signing the bill that Democrats and Republicans have worked for days."

    In other words, he wants you to die quickly and quietly and in a way that doesn't hurt his reelection chances.

     I'm wondering if this is the same factory that Jack Ma, Asia's richest man, gets his ventilators made. I read a couple of weeks ago that Ma was donating half a million ventilators and a million test kits through his charitable foundation.

     After that, I heard nothing. As poorly-supplied as our hospitals are, and as widely-spread as the disease is here in the US, half a million N95 masks would be a major boon to our health care system. So why am I seeing tv interviews from a Georgia hospital CEO complaining a Mexican company is gouging him for $7 for a mask that used to cost just .58 cents a unit? Why am I reading stories of US hospitals having to accept costumes and props from tv shows or nurses having to sew their own masks?

     We know Trump rejected test kits from the WHO so it wouldn't surprise me to learn Jack Ma's proferred gift was also refused by the same racist asshole who keeps calling this disease "the Chinese virus."

      Personally, I can't think of a more appropriate day to celebrate the resurrection of Christ to kill lots of people with a plague. And finally...

       Acclaimed playwright Terrence McNally just died of coronavirus.
