Big difference between picking fun and being completely inappropriate, but you like Trump have no filter so I expect no change.

“We have it totally under control."

“It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.”

Donald Trump*, Jan. 22, 2020, on Coronavirus

Jan. = same time S. Korea took quick action:

U.S. has 327 million people:
As of March 11, CDC, state and public health labs have conducted more than 11,000 tests since mid-January.

S. Korea, 51 million people:
has tested more than 200,000 of its population since January.

We shortly will reach the point in the movie where the malignant President (played by Donald Sutherland) is fretfully watching tv scenes of overrun hospitals and looted grocery stores ... and his dry raspy cough leads him to realize that HE has been infected with the killer virus.

Gen. Abrams says USFK can get as many people tested "as necessary" for COVID-19.

He credits the Republic of Korea with how they've handled testing, pointing to things like drive-through testing centers. He says they're able to do up to 18,000 tests a day.

USFK has 9 people who have tested positive — including 1 service member, and 2 active-duty dependents.

All 9 of them live off-base.

China's richest man Jack Ma donates one million face masks and 500,000 coronavirus test kits to the US as Beijing and Washington accuse each other of being the origin of the disease
Ma, the founder of Alibaba, announced the donation today through social media
'Hopefully, these supplies can help some people in the United States,' he wrote

Who I want in this crisis is the people of this nation in the states, counties, cities and towns, workplaces, businesses, corporations, utility companies, hospitals, research centers, etc. etc., as well as Congress, to attack and defend against the virus. To a great extent, that seems to be happening. Depending on one person in one branch of the federal government to coordinate and lead it all, or even most of it, or even a great deal of it, is ridiculous. That's asking for the politicking and accusations and recriminations and blaming and needless waiting critical hours and days for beneficial actions.

The President has done what limited things he can. Reducing the problem to his choice of words is typical destructive political nonsense.

He was supposed to speak at 3 and is reported to be announcing another emergency.

Rumour is that Trump* will announce what Jared's brother's father-in-law found out about Coronavirus on Facebook.

In spite of constant disinformation in the media and on this forum, Trump has done what the limits of his office allows and has done the proper thing by inviting and asking for state and local governments as well as the private sector to all join in the effort to keep the casualties from the virus as low as possible.

This is an American team effort. The more we fight each other instead of fighting this disease, the worse it will be for all of us.

What are you smoking, the media has been covering a potential coming pandemic, all the while Trump has been down playing it. Now that it’s here and the entire US and the economy is dealing with the stark reality, this clown continues the narrative to keep his base and his precious image in check; your post an absolute perfect example. Trump has at ever step of his administration blamed the past administrations and he takes no responsibility for anything.

Don’t you worry just had a great Italian feast, working on a good bottle of red wine, I’m going to be fine. I do however worry about you red hats, when the economy continues to tank and Trump is left running on what, do you have a support system in place?

Your post seems more like the expanding anti-Trump verbal pandemic rather than being useful information.
