Obviously he can’t let go of his cabal’s tyranny
Never let a crisis go to waste, Rahm Emanuel once advised …So did Jean Monnet, long before him.
They need time to manufacture more of those people killing fake vaxes under an EUA while testing for side effects and efficacy on a half dozen rodents before they jam that crap into more vacant headed sheeple.
