CoronaTrumpVirus hits CNN: brains turn to bat dung

The Comedy News Network (CNN) has been hit with the CoronaTrumpVirus (CTV--but not the Canadian television network) and it's been affecting their staff to the point where they can no longer think rationally.

While governments around the world work to address the fast-moving outbreak of the Wuhan coronavirus, a CNN political writer, a dork whose experience with medical problems came from that dripping, burning sensation he experienced after a night out on the town, made a serious [LOL] observation about the U.S. team working for President Trump. Brandon Tensley, a CNN political writer, complained that the team isn't diverse enough.

Seriously. He wasn't making a CNN joke, although they aren't called the Comedy News Network because people take them seriously.

A post at CNN  on Thursday took issue with a tweet sent out by President Donald Trump on Tuesday with pictures of a briefing he received on the virus from administration officials.

Trump tweeted:

"Just received a briefing on the Coronavirus in China from all of our GREAT agencies, who are also working closely with China. We will continue to monitor the ongoing developments. We have the best experts anywhere in the world, and they are on top of it 24/7!"

So Tensley made what he believes is a brilliant observation:  "Who are these experts?" he asked. "They're largely the same sorts of white men (and a couple women on the sidelines) who've dominated the Trump administration from the very beginning."

The CNN political writer then compared Trump's coronavirus advisers to the ones former President Barack Obama employed in response to the 2014 ebola crisis.

"Neither was it so abysmal in terms of gender diversity. (Of course, to contextualize, Obama's administration, on the whole, was far more diverse than Trump's.)," Tensley wrote, as if anyone worried about the coronavirus cares if the doctor who can cure it is diverse enough.

"President Obama, we're having a global spread of the ebola virus, what should we do?"

"Well, let's find us three women, one of whom is a black transgender woman who was denied use of a woman's public toilet in Toledo, one bisexual Hispanic and one either Asian or white--they're practically the same--and let's get three men, one who is gay, one a transgender Iranian-American man who was not allowed to compete in women's wrestling, and one who is black, formerly incarcerated and has any sort of deformity. As long as they have "Doctor" in their title, they can be any sort of doctor. In fact, the more diverse their doctor degrees are, the better."

Idiots.

Anyone complaining about the amount of racial diversity within a group of people trying to combat the spread of a deadly virus is astronomically obtuse. The World Health Organization declared an emergency of "international concern" over the issue, so my guess would be that getting the best doctors with the best creds (regardless of their intersectional creds) is more important than the content of their diversity.

But you have a writer with an agenda and he must find fault with whatever President Trump does, no matter what. If the Trump administration cured cancer, this guy would complain about the LGBTQ, black, Hispanic and women doctors he made jobless.

The left has gone nuts with Trump's win in 2016. Maybe when he wins again this year, they will reconcile it in their angry minds.
