what our president has done to fight the coronavirus:
- praised himself
- called it a hoax
- blamed Obama
- worn a stupid hat
- muzzled the experts
- announced it "contained"
- told the sick to go to work
- downplayed its seriousness
what our president hasn't done:
- been honest
This new translator just landed another client! Hard work pays off 💪🏼 Couldn't be more excited #xl8 #freelance
