The people that know me and know the history of our Country say that I am the hardest working President in history. I don’t know about that, but I am a hard worker and have probably gotten more done in the first 3 1/2 years than any President in history. The Fake News hates it!

Historians may tell us if they can find in the modern or even the earliest years of the American presidency any statement more reckless or irresponsible than Donald Trump’s cry for his right-wing followers to “LIBERATE Michigan, LIBERATE Virginia, LIBERATE Minnesota.” And so they came out, in their MAGA hats, many masked but not to protect themselves against a virus, and more than a few carrying guns. When they did, in violation of his administration’s own policy of social isolation, and without question increasing the spread of the disease, the president called them “very responsible people,” an echo, of course, of the “very fine people” in Charlottesville, Va., who, in torchlight, chanted, “Jews will not replace us.”

I fear that what we are seeing here is a dress rehearsal for the insurrection that the president will similarly foment should he be defeated in November. One thing is certain: He does not intend to go quietly.

Note from KBJ: We love President Trump, Leslie, and we're going to elect him again. Get some help for your derangement.

The Do Nothing Democrats are spending much of their money on Fake Ads. I never said that the CoronaVirus is a “Hoax”, I said that the Democrats, and the way they lied about it, are a Hoax. Also, it did start with “one person from China”, and then grew, & will be a “Miracle” end!

Re: April 12 commentary, “China should be liable for the damage it has done.”

I always look forward to Marc Thiessen’s from-the-right opinion.

Each commentary is a look back at how President Donald Trump has been misunderstood, or tangled in a timeline of his own making. China is now the culprit: “They did it!” not Trump. Trump supporters always find a way to pass the damage onto someone else for things Trump has done or failed at.

Reading Thiessen reminds me of some kids doing mischief, getting caught, and pointing to another kid saying, “he did it, not me.” Trump’s entire lifestyle has propelled him into the most important leadership role in the world, where he exercises this “he did it, not me” leadership deception. Maybe someday his style will collapse, and the world will take a deep breath and pray that it’s over.

Note from KBJ: Don't worry, Mike. Donald Trump will leave office in January 2025.
