Over the last 40 years the government of the United States of America has become more secretive, hiding the truth from the American people. The reason for this fact has been hidden from the American people by our government and the once respected fourth estate. Corruption is rampant in Washington, and the American people have valid reasons for not trusting our elected officials who have sworn to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

Most of the time, when any government official claims that information cannot be revealed because of “national security,” they are covering up something they don’t want you to know; an act of corruption or an indiscretion.

Trump and his party have been lying to the American people for decades. However, the lies about the coronavirus are so vile and outrageous, I find them hilarious. Back in February Trump told the American people that the virus would be gone by April. Another funny one: Donny Boy said that his administration was “well prepared” to control the coronavirus. The funniest prank? He placed his son-in-law, Jared Kushner in charge of his administration’s efforts to slow the virus. Efforts? What “efforts?” This is better than stand-up comedy. Trump and Kushner lied with a straight face, and that’s hard to do when you’re telling the most outrageous jokes in history.

Here are a few one-liners by the orange failure. “I’m a stable genius.” “I know more than the generals.” “I’ve done more for black people than any other president.” “This virus is another hoax.” “I trust my economic adviser more than Dr. Fauci.” There are many, many more.
