oh I dunno, it was the holiday to Barbados that did that for me.Wheeling him out to be pictured (maskless) in close proximity to celebrities and dignitaries in the middle of a pandemic, then justifying it because "it was his dream holiday" and "it was within the rules" while most of us were trying to limit travel and contact as much as possible for the good of everyone's health?
