right, downplaying. he restricted travel from
china on day one and was called a xenophobe and a dictator for doing so.
so back then, he did too much. now, he didn’t do enough. it would
be nice if the tds wing could
at least get their stories straight.
it doesn’t matter what he does, you all spin it as ineffective and evil.
60% of americans approve of the way he's handling it.

President Trump says that Democrats are using the virulent coronavirus as a “hoax” to damage him and his administration. |

a huge, huge number of people agree with that statement.
MSNBC said trump should be charged with a crime for every american who dies. that’s not crazy.
wdmso, more than 10,000 americans died from H1N1 when obama was potus. you tell
me, how much less press did that get? who blamed obama for responding slowly?

So because people believe Trump that statments true, wow and can we wait for this to be over before you compare things that aren't remotely the same . Read this its spot on
The president will try to blame someone else—but in this case the “someone else” is a virus, not a Mexican immigrant or a reporter with a disability, not a Muslim or a Clinton, not a dead war hero or a family of a fallen soldier, not a special counsel or an NFL player who kneels for the national anthem. He will try to use this crisis to pit one party against the other—but the virus will kill both Republicans and Democrats. He will try to create an alternate story to distract
Its allready working on you

So, the recently retired (January) head of the National Stockpile, in a report on CBS this morning stated that the amount of PPEs distributed for H1N1, were not replaced due to lack of funds.... |

War time deaths were predicted in every model done, every step this administration has taken has been late and reactive and not proactive, the war powers act should have been used forcefully a long time back once it was clear (a long time back) this virus had begun to radically expand in the US. Nobody is blaming Trump for the virus, but I believe the inaction and miserable messaging will be responsible for more deaths if hard difficult steps had been taken early on. Jim, hear is your daily opportunity to bring up Comments made on a Trump closing travel from China, I realize how important that is to you, so I’ve teed it up for you to hit it hard.

There are foolish comments and stupid comments, you qualify for both with that one.
WASHINGTON — Early on, the dozen federal officials charged with defending America against the coronavirus gathered day after day in the White House Situation Room, consumed by crises. They grappled with how to evacuate the United States consulate in Wuhan, China, ban Chinese travelers and extract Americans from the Diamond Princess and other cruise ships.
The members of the coronavirus task force typically devoted only five or 10 minutes, often at the end of contentious meetings, to talk about testing, several participants recalled. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, its leaders assured the others, had developed a diagnostic model that would be rolled out quickly as a first step.
But as the deadly virus spread from China with ferocity across the United States between late January and early March, large-scale testing of people who might have been infected did not happen — because of technical flaws, regulatory hurdles, business-as-usual bureaucracies and lack of leadership at multiple levels, according to interviews with more than 50 current and former public health officials, administration officials, senior scientists and company executives.
The result was a lost month, when the world’s richest country — armed with some of the most highly trained scientists and infectious disease specialists — squandered its best chance of containing the virus’s spread. Instead, Americans were left largely blind to the scale of a looming public health catastrophe. |

Boy you are so stuck on the one thing Trump did, but completely ignoring the multiple mistakes following and the terrible messaging that still has people thinking this is all media driven. |

Not to mention he’s still wrong about most of it and not is clinging to a single poll taken when the reported infections in the US were 4-6 thousand.
