As the Trump administration continues to drop the ball in regard to this nation’s response to the novel, potentially fatal coronavirus, more and more of his GOP sycophants continue to find themselves suffering the consequences.
Trump and his cronies have continually attempted to make light of this entire situation, acting as though it’s just not as big a deal as anyone is making it out to be. However, after more than a few thoughtless actions and carelessness at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference, I’d venture to say that most of them are regretting their actions at this point.
As it turns out, two individuals that attended CPAC with countless high-profile GOP members were actually infected with the coronavirus and spent their time at the conference interacting with several key Trump administration officials, potentially, albeit unknowingly, transmitting the virus.
Everyone from Vice President Mike Pence to Donald Trump himself and several in between, including Representatives Doug Collins and Matt Gaetz, found themselves exposed to and potentially infected with COVID-19.

Now, joining the pack of idiotic Trump minions who are undoubtedly wishing they had a time machine right now is none other than MAGA sympathizer and South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham.
In a statement released by Graham’s office, the senator explained that he would be going under self-quarantine after spending the weekend at Mar-a-Lago with the President of Brazil who’s infected.
The office states that Graham can’t recollect any direct contact with the Brazilian president but has chosen to undergo quarantine anyway as a precaution while he awaits the result of the coronavirus test that he likely only received because he’s in Donald’s pocket.
“This is a precautionary measure,” the statement read. “He will continue to work from home.”

It must be nice to have the ability to deny Americans suffering the effects from the virus the very same privileges he’s awarding himself right now. But whatever, right?
