https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/31/politics/trump-white-house-guidelines-coronavirus/index.html Tough times ahead for America. How he copes with this will go a long way to if he will get a second term or not. Expected to be between 100000-240000 deaths and could have been as high as 2.2 million if he had carried on the way he was. The original lockdown for them is longer than our own.
"Even Trump" is trending on Twitter, as in Even Trump is saying the UK's original herd immunity policy wasn't a good idea. A bit rich coming from someone who wasn't taking the whole thing seriously until a couple of days ago.
This from the guy that spent the first month saying coronavirus was a Democrat hoax, that the first 15 cases would all recover and that would be that and then that we'd find that one day the thing would have magically blown over.
Why anyone takes the slightest bit of notice of anything this excuse for a man says,, is just beyond my comprehension.
Even right now, he is getting into constant spats with the (democratic) governor of NY which can only be described as political. In the middle of a catastrophe, he is playing politics to keep his ratings up. And yet, when I read comments on news articles from the USA, the people commenting from the mid states won't have a word said against him. In fact, most of them still think the whole thing is being overplayed. They deserve what's coming to them.
And then you have that Russian guy who claims the virus is an American conspiracy sent to undermine them. There are some right knobs in the world.
Despite his various faults, in the interests of clarity it’s worth pointing out that he’s never said Covid 19 is a hoax. That’s just more lefty nonsense levelled against a leader you lot appear to hate, literally hate. All aided and abetted by an embarrassingly partisan news media that’s dedicated itself to supporting the various failed Democrat efforts to remove him (failed because they were built on foundations of horse-manure) and quoting him out of context at each and every opportunity, bizarrely even at times doubling down on their deceit when the facts have been pointed out to them. They alone have pretty much ensured his re-election without him having to lift a finger, though they’ll no doubt still be happy as long as the easily led keep clicking away on their content as they seek to feed their confirmation-bias. That said, even the usual lefty propagandists at sites like Snopes and The Independent have been forced to concede that wasn’t what he had said – links below. Helpfully Snopes included a transcript of what he actually said at the time and, providing you are capable of understanding context, it’s clear that he was in fact referring to the Democrat’s criticism of his handling of the virus response as ‘their new hoax’. Within that very same passage of speech, he even makes reference to the way the Government has (at that time) been responding to the virus, which would seem an odd thing to do if you believe the virus doesn’t exist………. I wonder if Trump Derangement Syndrome could be classed as a serious underlying condition? If so there’s quite a few on here that could do with self-isolating immediately. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-coronavirus-rally-remark/ https://www.independent.co.uk/life-...facebook-fact-checking-politico-a9374936.html
Did he say..... We have 15 cases and that will soon go down to zero. Some people want to take those passengers off the ship but i dont want to. I like my numbers where they are. We want the churches full for Easter Sunday You'll find this will all go away, like a miracle. Did he say those things or not? Beyond that I'm not arguing with you. You're clearly beyond hope and reason.
I think you give the game away as to your political leanings with terms like “lefty nonsense” & “lefty propaganda “! I don’t know which are the lies but find it quite ironic (no, incredibly ironic) that the biggest user of lies, propaganda & “fake news” is being misrepresented! I say “Lock him up, lock him up!”
The exact quote is this: One of my people came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia. That didn’t work out too well. They couldn’t do it. They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything, they tried it over and over, they’ve been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning, they lost, it’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax. But you know, we did something that’s been pretty amazing. We’re 15 people [cases of coronavirus infection] in this massive country. And because of the fact that we went early, we went early, we could have had a lot more than that. He was calling allusions as to the severity of the issue a hoax. And now that paragraph looks incredibly foolish.
Thanks again MR. I knew he'd said it. He was talking to his massed ranks of brain dead at one of his rallies. I saw Mitch McConnell was blaming the slow response to it on the impeachment. Funny how while the impeachment was going on he didn't have time to take coronavirus seriously but did have the time to tour the country doing his propaganda rallies.
