Donald Trump hosted a dinner at Mar-a-Lago for Brazil’s super homophobic President Jair Bolsonaro on Saturday, where the two men shook hands and spent several hours sitting right next to each other at the table.
Now, Bolsonaro is being tested for COVID-19 after his press secretary, Fabio Wajngarten, who was also at the dinner, tested positive for the virus.

The dining engagement also included Jared and Ivanka, Rudy Giuliani, and Bolsonaro’s son Eduardo, among several others. And Mike Pence joined up with them later in the evening.
During a press briefing yesterday, Trump insisted he’s not worried about the possibility of having the “foreign virus” from China, even though he’s well over the age of 60 and has been in close contact with multiple people who are now being self-quarantined after being exposed to the virus.
How about we take this to the next level?

Brazilian officials have not yet released the status of Bolsonaro’s test, but the scare comes mere days after he called the epidemic a “fantasy.”
Meanwhile, some of the most well-respected LGBTQ advocacy groups in the US, including HRC and GLAAD, have signed an open letter to remind “all parties handling COVID-19 surveillance, response, treatment, and media coverage that LGBTQ+ communities are among those who are particularly vulnerable to the negative health effects of this virus.”

If it weren’t for Trump’s age and his love of fast food I’d enjoy seeing these two who both make light of this disease come down with it. I don’t want anyone to die though so deep deep down I hope they don’t get it. Still, it would be a nice bit of irony.

Really hope all they all get fatal cases of the virus. I’m not ashamed to say it. Also hope they spread it around to everyone working with them. Every repubtard in and around the WH needs to go and if it’s from the virus, all I can say is Go Corona!

There is zero empathy, kindness, or concern from any of the three and they have worked tirelessly to attack the Gay community and ensure measures to deny us basic rights or equality.
Sorry simply won’t be able to muster up a tinge of sadness, sorrow, or sympathy if Gay Karma delivers the ultimate payback..
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Really??

Tsk tsk, you guys. Now our commenter pal “kieran” is going to berate us for being so “hateful” to Trump. Like Trump hasn’t based his entire political career on HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE!

Bolsonaro also gave permission for missionaries to make contact with indigenous tribes in the Amazon… just in time to give them Corona! That after probably (speculation) assassinating Marielle Franco the openly gay black woman, part of Rio’s city council What a great guy. If anybody deserves to die of corona it’s Bolsonaro’s entire staff and himself.
