Is there something funny about testing positive for COVID, whether it is once, twice, or two dozen times? No. Obviously. But apparently, Don Jr. finds this utterly hilarious because he is laughing, “can’t make this up,” and then says that, of course, they wish him well because they’re good people.
Except, here is the thing. The entire reason that Don Jr. is able to laugh about it at all is that Joe Biden has followed the most recent medical protocols to a “T” and that is why most people didn’t even notice that he had COVID, given he made a video in the midst of it and looked better than Donald Trump did this past weekend. So Don Jr. is able to “laugh” because Biden doesn’t get sick.
This is, of course, juxtaposed with the entire Trump family, who seemed to all come down with COVID at once. Indeed, for a week, it seemed like the White House under Trump was Ground Zero COVID HQ USA. Additionally, his father kept his COVID diagnosis from others (Perhaps because he was afraid people would laugh? Like Junior); the secret made his father patient zero in an outbreak at the announcement ceremony for Justice Amy Coney-Barrett. Chris Christie almost died.
But Junior finds this hilarious. You can’t make this up!
Junior’s rant today is laughing about Biden testing positive for covid again. “Obviously, we wish him well because we’re decent people.” pic.twitter.com/u9xZsD8ub7 [1]

We know that the Trumps hate Biden but does that make it funny? And again, the whole reason Junior can laugh at it is that Biden bounces back so easily that there’s no fear that he’s about to get really ill.
Want to see how real decent people react when someone gets COVID? Look at what the Bidens wrote to Junior’s father and his wife when they got sick. And, just for kicks, we have Trump’s message to Biden, which is worse than Junior’s (but we already reported upon Trump’s sick statement:

The MAGA movement is about adolescents hating people who act maturely and make good policy for society.
Twitter went into a rage.
They’re all such classless scum.

“Decent people” don’t laugh when someone is sick. This guy is a joke and a disgrace.

He seems really broken up about the recent death of his mother.

His is the language of a sadist.

Blown past grieving mom's death, eh? Got it.

Obviously, you're not anything like "decent people", Junior. You're a lying, drug abusing, trust funding crybaby who's fond of consorting with Russian agents. And we wish you . . . exactly what you deserve.

Is he on drugs 24/7? It sure looks like that.
