Sunday morning, Trumpist chief of staff Mark Meadows, a former neo-fascist congressman from North Carolina (whose district is about to be flipped by Moe Davis), was on State of the Union fighting with Jake Tapper about the pandemic. As U.S. daily cases have spiked into the 80 thousands on both Friday and Saturday and as the death toll hurtles towards a quarter million, Meadows admitted the Regime isn't really trying to defeat the pandemic the way countries like China, South Korea, Japan and Taiwan have. Trump seems so passive about anything that isn't related to lining his own pockets. And all his cronies, like Meadows, are just along for the ride-- "following orders." Especially that putrid excuse for a vice president. He's running around like Trump, criss-crossing the country, spreading COVID, which his whole staff is infected with. CNN reported that at least 5 of Pence's top aides-- including chief of staff Marc Short and outside adviser Marty Obst-- have tested positive. Pence's whole office is freaking out. Pence says he and mother have tested negative. "Despite contact with multiple people who recently tested positive," reported CNN, "Pence is refusing to quarantine in defiance of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines... Pence-- who is the head of the White House's coronavirus task force-- plans to continue traveling and campaigning every day in the final stretch to Election Day, an official told CNN." Places where Pence is bringing more coronavirus this week: North Carolina, South Carolina, Minnesota. Last week, he was spreading sickness in Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire. These are the number of cases per million residents in states Pence visited last week and is going to this week-- along with each state's polling average:
• North Carolina- 24,627 cases per million residents (Biden +1.2%)• South Carolina- 32,890 cases per million residents (Trump +6.2%)• Minnesota- 23,427 cases per million residents (Biden +6.0%)• Florida- 36,142 cases per million residents (Biden +1.5%)• Indiana- 23,824 cases per million residents (Trump +11.3%)• Ohio- 16,759 cases per million residents (Trump +0.6%)• Pennsylvania- 15,417 cases per million residents (Biden +5.1%)• New Hampshire- 7,530 cases per million residents (Biden +11.0%)
Pence was in Kinston (Lenoir County), North Carolina yesterday and is spreading COVID in Hibbing (Saint Louis County), Minnesota today. Both counties are spiking badly-- Lenoir County: And Saint Louis County (Minnesota):
