Looking the US media, it's all about Trump. The man's just a bloody nuisance of the highest order.
How do you attribute the nuisance to Trump?
I think the media is annoying, for going on and on and on and on about Trump. First hes faking that hes fine. Then hes faking that hes working while he has Covid. Then when he drives around smiling and waving, hes a mad man because he could make the driver sick. Then he looks short of breath after climbing a flight of stairs... and is also putting the white house residents at risk.... even though you won't spread Covid when you don't have symptoms.
74 year old man gets Covid. Beats it in 3 days while still working. Thats definitely a ground breaking story. But the media makes it out to be a billion times worse than it actually is. Sadly, thats how media makes money. Fake news, sells.
Is it really Trumps fault, that he couldn't even fart loudly without the media making a big fuss about it?
