His delusion that<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" he's somehow on equal footing as scientists and doctors (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/us-politics\/trump-healthcare-us-medicine-coronavirus-centers-for-disease-control-a9384441.html\" target=\"_blank\"> he&#8217;s somehow on equal footing as scientists and doctors<\/a> produced a drastic result this past week as an <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Phoenix man died taking chloroquine phosphate (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/health\/health-news\/man-dies-after-ingesting-chloroquine-attempt-prevent-coronavirus-n1167166\" target=\"_blank\">Arizona man died taking chloroquine phosphate<\/a>, a derivative of an anti-malaria drug cholorquine  that Trump touted as being a possible cure for coronavirus, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"which again prompted a multitude of facepalms from science professionals (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencemag.org\/news\/2020\/03\/insane-many-scientists-lament-trump-s-embrace-risky-malaria-drugs-coronavirus#\" target=\"_blank\">which again prompted a multitude of facepalms from science professionals<\/a>. You can&#8217;t just tell a virus what to do no more than you can tell a hurricane what to do, but don&#8217;t tell that to &#8216;master scientist&#8217; Trump. Apparently, he thinks he&#8217;s some kind of  virus whisperer.  Fortunately, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Dr. Fauci, one the country's leading disease experts and a member of Trump's coronavirus team, stepped up and said that the virus makes the timeline not humans (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/huffpost\/fauci-virus-makes-the-timeline-102420555.html\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Anthony Fauci, one the country&#8217;s leading disease experts and a member of Trump&#8217;s coronavirus team, stepped up and said that the virus makes the timeline not humans<\/a>. We&#8217;re predicting that with that kind of attitude toward facts, truth and honesty, Dr. Fauci may not be on Trump&#8217;s team much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump&#8217;s choice of Easter is also very telling of another group in his base that he&#8217;s trying to appease; the evangelical christians. Remember: he&#8217;s got holier-than-thou rapture freaks Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo and Bill Barr in his administration. What better symbolism could you ask for than having America reborn from a horrible scourge on Easter, the day Jesus &#8216;resurrected from the dead&#8217;. Trump says he even wants to pack the churches with the faithful to celebrate.  As we mentioned in <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"our last post (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/?p=7318\" target=\"_blank\">our last post<\/a>, we have no doubt Trump will politicize the coronavirus for the upcoming election.  If everything appears to be fine by Easter then he will proclaim it to be an &#8216;Easter miracle&#8217; and he will appear even more like <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2019\/08\/21\/i-am-the-chosen-one-trump-proclaims-as-he-defends-china-trade-war.html\" target=\"_blank\">&#8216;the chosen one&#8217;<\/a> to his brain dead zombie followers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, we have no problem with Trumpty Dumpty&#8217;s plan of packing the churches on Easter.

It&#8217;s just fake news. Trump knows best. If Trump&#8217;s MAGA supporters want to defy doctors and scientists and gather together and spread the COVID-19 to other sheeple in the flock, then we here at the Bucket say go right ahead. Let Jesus take the wheel. When you get sick, just don&#8217;t go to the &#8216;evil&#8217; scientists or doctors for help; just hunker down and pray to God or Donald Trump to be magically cured. Yeah . . . that will work well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"900\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/trumpcoronaviruswhisperer1.jpg\" alt=\"America's Impeached CEO\/Dictator, stable genius, bestest scientist ever, virus whisperer and the self proclaimed \u2018chosen one\u2019, Donald Trump, gets tough with coronavirus, not because it's killing and endangering innocent people, but because it's lowering his precious stock market gains.\" class=\"wp-image-7342\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/trumpcoronaviruswhisperer1.jpg 500w, http:\/\/www.bilgebucket.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/trumpcoronaviruswhisperer1-167x300.jpg 167w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption>America&#8217;s Impeached CEO\/Dictator, stable genius, bestest scientist ever, virus whisperer and the self proclaimed \u2018chosen one\u2019, Donald Trump, gets tough with coronavirus, not because it&#8217;s killing and endangering innocent people, but because it&#8217;s lowering his precious stock market gains.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>America&#8217;s Impeached CEO\/Dictator and petulant man child Donald Trump ratcheted up his audacity to yet another level of absurdity this past week.
