Simultaneously, our 'Woodrow Drumpf' has censored the news media within an inch of its life to the point that reliable data is scarce and the connection of the virus to overcrowded, unsanitary medical centers is missed. At the end of war, Pres Woodrow Drumpf strides into Peace of Versailles immediately takes all the credit for the victory, and signs a treaty he never commits to and avoids a global agreement vital to world peace. Woodrow Drumpf went on to serve two terms and died two years after leaving the world stage.
