I feel slightly guilty for hijacking ggggggg's thread on the Mozart Ad (dumbed down to the level of Drumpf dunces), but as he hijacks ancient threads himself, I hope he will tolerate me.
Obligatory opera connection with Drumpf's triumphant drive past his proud boy high school dropouts outside Walter Reed.
(1) the triumphant victory procession in verdi's Aida?
(2) meyerbeer's Le Prophete -- the life of John of Leiden Anabaptist messiah and self-proclaimed King of Muenster.

Shortly after a masked US President Donald Trump climbed into a car driven by a secret service agent – wearing a medical gown, face shield and mask – an attending physician at Walter Reed Medical Centre, where Trump is currently being treated for
coronavirus, condemned the drive, calling it “insanity”. At least one other secret service agent was also in the car.
In a second tweet he said: “the irresponsibility is astounding.”
Dr James Phillips is a full-time emergency medical physician at Walter Reed.

Every single person in the vehicle during that completely unnecessary Presidential “drive-by” just now has to be quarantined for 14 days. They might get sick. They may die. For political theater. Commanded by Trump to put their lives at risk for
theater. This is insanity.

That Presidential SUV is not only bulletproof, but hermetically sealed against chemical attack. The risk of COVID19 transmission inside is as high as it gets outside of medical procedures. The irresponsibility is astounding. My thoughts are with the
Secret Service forced to play.
