Lenny Bernstein of the Washington Post reminds us today of Donald Trump’s calm and reassuring response to the Ebola crisis two years ago:
Ebola patient will be brought to the U.S. in a few days – now I know for sure that our leaders are incompetent. KEEP THEM OUT OF HERE!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 1, 2014
The U.S. cannot allow EBOLA infected people back. People that go to far away places to help out are great-but must suffer the consequences!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 2, 2014
This, of course, fits with Trump’s apparent panic toward bodily functions of any sort, as well as his basic callousness. Definitely the kind of guy you want in the White House.
