The creator of “Veep,” Armando Iannucci, took a stab at real-world political satire in a recent article in which he lambasted Donald Trump over what he did after testing positive for the coronavirus. The creator of the Emmy-winning HBO comedy penned an article for The Intelligencer in which he mocked the president for creating a narrative that paints him as miraculously “immune” to COVID-19 as well as his time hospitalized at Walter Reed Medical Center. “In reality, Donald Trump is still probably contagious and currently breathing on Republicans to death — but the vision of him defeating the virus has already been cut and pasted into a narrative rendered official,” he begins.

Trump, Republicans increase attacks on Harris as Biden’s lead grows in polls

Donald Trump and his Republican allies are intensifying their focus not on Democratic nominee Joe Biden, but on his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris — arguing without evidence that it’s Harris, the first Black woman on a major party ticket, who would really be in charge if Democrats win the White House.The effort is laced with sexist and racist undertones, and one that is aimed at winning back Republicans and independents who are comfortable with Biden’s more moderate record, but may associate Harris with Democrats’ left flank, despite her own more centrist positions on some major issues.
