The coronavirus outbreak has reached a "decisive point" and has "pandemic potential", World Health Organization head Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus says

WHO is in on it as well ...PS its in Ireland

it affecting the world not in deaths (thats never been the driving concern) but the way it has been so prolific spreading world wide and its disruption of supply chains and the global economy..


Just imagine having a job a mortgage car payment and you get this virus or someone you know gets it .. Bam your out of work 14 days if your lucky.. if not you get sick who knows for how long ...

who pays your bills who pays your medical bills ,, where do you go when all Hospitals get tapped out . (if it gets that bad )

Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.

Trump just expects the Best and it ends there

Pence, who prays for End Times and the Rapture is in charge of a global pandemic.

But don't worry, the preacher has a cure.

It was only a matter of time before the mob would blame corona on Trump.

This is snowflake brilliance from the predominant alliance.

I worry about your comprehension, hope this isn’t early signs of things to come, because I don’t think anyone blames Trump for anything; other than suggesting we have nothing to worry about or that he has egg on his face for cutting the department and people we will need to address this as it expands.

He claims the market is reacting to the democratic debate and not the global impact this pandemic is having. Best least educated president of our lifetime!

Thats beyond idiotic of him to say. The market is reacting favorably to the chit show on the left, the market knows there's little chance they will win. The last three days are obviously because of the virus, this is him at his worst.

early on in the epidemic, trump refused to allow anyone from certain regions in china to enter the us. some people called him a bigot for doing that.

They handled it so poorly a whistle blower felt compelled to expose the bad practices used, which put healthy people at risk, but pray for that Trump miracle because that’s what will be needed to avoid the inevitable.

While the market falls, the mob closes in. Certainly, this has Trump’s fingerprints all over it.

Let's not forget the greatest president of our lifetime just proposed a budget that lowers the CDC budget by 700 million.

I suspect today might be putting that number one spot in jeopardy. Consumers not spending, travel taking a hit, manufacturing down and this will add to it, orange man is most likely freaking out and looking for that next conspiracy theory to blame this all on.

60 confirmed cases in the US out of a population of over 325,000,000. Even in comparison to the percentage of Native American blood coursing through Liz Warrens veins, that is minuscule.

How about relaxing and take a breath

The market has been looking for a reason to drop for a few years and while the virus might have been the trigger, there have been a number of other negative indicators that were largely ignored by the news cycle because it was full of Twittler's baloney.

If you think Wall Street is saying it will be ok we have The Chosen One, Kudlow, Ross and Mnuchin on top of it, I've got a bridge for you.

Between the endless baloney, Agolf's propping of the market and his disruption of worldwide trade with his easy tariff wars we are getting what was coming sooner or later and the tools to work on it have been expended.

I await with bated breath what the Stable Genius will do to get himself reelected, we know what he thought other presidents could or should do to get that done.

The stable genius can rest comfortably knowing that all he needs to do in order to be re-elected is watch the opponents sabotage themselves. Easy

This is precisely the problem, Trump stares down a pandemic and he’s more concerned with public relations than public health...
