Do all those people and industries have to wait for the President to get on the case? I know it is too difficult for most folks to read the Constitution, but a quick perusal of it, or even a studied one, would not find that the President has the responsibility to fix the problem, nor even much, if anything, to do with it.

But, of course, you compassionate Progressives have a different understanding. For you, he's the guy. A great Progressive like FDR, or LBJ, or Obama would have seen to it that we probably wouldn't have had more than 10 or so cases of the virus, if any, by now.
That’s too funny! Nobody blames Trump, if they do, they aren’t thinking clearly. I do blame him for the misleading and contradictory comments, that puts his Classic Trump spin on things, it’s so wrong to contradict your own science experts. But when you think you can bomb hurricanes and think global warming is a hoax, he just can’t help himself.

Rabid pup,
If you want to come after me, come on down, just remember I don't need a permit here and you just threatened me.

Your pediatrician, huh? Seems more like you are the one in need of a gynocologist with your attitude.

Now pay attention and you can learn how the Stable Genius might kill more Americans, hopefully it won't be as many as the 3000 deaths that his inaction in Puerto Rico resulted in.

PyschoBozo removed pandemics from the national security view.

It is proving to be a big mistake.

They then sat on the problem for six weeks from the beginning of the new year hoping that stopping flights from China would do something till the spread was becoming evident.

Epidemiologist Marc Lipsitch, director of Harvard's Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics: “In the US it is the opposite of contained."

The thing that is making people panic is that
(a) we can't trust ANYTHING coming from the WH
(b) we have no one to get reliable information from in America because PB is muzzling agencies
(c) we have no idea how many people are infected
(d) no insurance/sick leave for workers
(e) Almost 40% of American adults wouldn't be able to cover a $400 emergency.

You need to realize that during this Coronavirius episode that PsychoBozo is the mayor from Jaws. He’s going to risk people dying to keep the beaches (aka the economy) open. The problem is, it's not a Reality show and people are getting infected and dying.
Up to 17 now and increasing geometrically each day.

Trump’s on camera behavior this week is stunningly disturbing and that’s with a history of chronic facepalming.

Trump as always is more concerned about how this affects him personally, everything he has done since taking office is viewed in that light. Nobody expects Trump to be an expert, but when he contradicts his own scientific experts, there are those that will question the science because the fing president of the USA does.

I love the you constantly ask why doesn’t anyone give Trump credit, the flip side of that argument is also true, other than the occasional complaint about his interactions with people, it’s rare anyone is calling him out on this, or other clearly bad moves. If you don’t think he is really not handling this well; your red hat and coolaid is making you looney.
show us where Trump said this was. made up hoax.

There are idiots out there on all sides. But now all idiocy is trumps
fault.

i never threatened
you. i said you’re a boring, predictable, bitch slapped pussy. which is exactly what you are. i can have a rational conversation on this board, i can disagree with spence and GS and Paul, i have disagreed respectfully with scott and detbuch. you can’t get along with anyone. so either you’re the problem, or everyone else is. which do you think is more likely?

and you’re a liar. i keep criticizing trump, you keep calling me a trumplican. your brain can’t grasp that it’s possible to be fair enough to sometimes criticize trump, and sometimes to praise him. you can’t do it. that’s too complicated for you.

if he said it’s a hoax, he should be called out for it. shame on him if he said something that stupid. but i don’t look to him for
medical advice. i actually hate listening to him talk, he’s too obnoxious and sophomoric. but if the courts don’t let him abuse his power, he kills terrorists, stands up for the unborn, appoints judges who understand that the constitution is the rule book not their personal beliefs, and helps me retire earlier than any of the shrieking marxists would, he’s got
my vote. if the markets are up
and ISIS is down, i’m good. Maybe i’m a simpleton that way.

if he gets another four years, he’ll have reshaped the courts. i love it.

Nobody blames Trump,

I didn't say that anybody did. I didn't even mention him.

Nobody blames Trump, if they do, they aren’t thinking clearly. I do blame him for the misleading and contradictory comments,

Talk about irony, you three (Jim to a much lesser degree) do nothing but attack others and they are NOT good natured attacks, they have become mean personal and in some cases disgusting. If anyone needs to look in the mirror it’s you clowns. RR wants in on your club, but he apparently is to inappropriate for membership and that’s saying a lot.

For the sake of discussion, provided we can have a civilized one, if the POTUS did nor more about the virus other than some constitutionally contrived action on borders and incoming bans, would we all be at the mercy of the pandemic?

here’s the million dollar question for you. by what possible logic do you call out me, scott, and SD, but exclude Pete from the criticism?

I saw Pete very deliberately insult TDFs kids, his children FFS, and nit one of the liberals uttered a syllable. You didn’t care.

Answer - it’s ok when liberals do it, but inappropriate when we respond in mind.

None of you can bring yourselves to say anything that resembles criticism about anyone you have political sympathies with. Pete is certifiably insane, and a jerk to boot, and not a syllable from you, or spence, or paul. Not one syllable. But you have zero issue criticizing the conservatives. Do you seriously not see the hypocrisy?

I hate what i say to pete, i know exactly how ugly it is. but when i asked him a fair and obvious question, he backed himself into a corner ( he’s not too bright), he refused to answer and said my mother gives blow jobs at truck stops to support her drug habit. that was his exact response to a very fair question by me, and none of you had any issue with it, only TDF commented on it. She had another serious health scare last month so i stooped to his level because i think he had that, and a whole lot more, coming to him.

So i’ll knock it off because i’m better than that, but you and spence can spare us your phony lectures about civility, unless you can apply your standards to pete too. until then, stow it.

Sure Jim,
Once again you prove that one should never argue with a moron, they bring you down to their level and think they have bitchslapped you, and demonstrate their belief that anything worth reacting to is worth overreacting to. Anyways in your case, I may have been wrong about your mama and the truckstop but you give me plenty of cause to believe you have a tangled family tree.
Your paranoia is showing.

I said you insulted the mans children. You just proved me correct.

All you did, all you ever do, is show that (1) you’re obsessed with trump, and (2) consumed with hatred for everyone who doesn’t feel the exact same way as you, you constantly lie and claim that anyone who ever says anything positive about trump, is incapable of criticizing him. When in fact, you are the one that simple minded who can only see things one way.

i’m a fellow of the casualty actuarial society and graduated phi beta kappa and cum laude with a degree in math from uconn. if you ever want to take an iq test against me, let’s do it. you still claim that kids in cages is a trump invention not an obama invention. The proof is there, you just aren’t capable of processing anything which doesn’t make trump look awful. you backed yourself into a corner on this issue, and instead of saying what everyone knows ( that obama built the cages and used them), you went after my mother. again, that says nothing about me, and everything anyone ever needs to know, about you.

you’re a warped, thoughtless, hate-filled coward. the only person here who thinks i’m a moron, including those who disagree with me, is you. only you. but you have problems with everyone. so either you’re the problem, or everyone else is. You tell me which is more likely.

I’m the one who is paranoid? you blame trump for everything from the chicago fire to the current stock market plummet . Everyone admits is because of corona virus, only you said it was evidence of lack of confidence in trump. only you go to that ridiculous extreme.

but I’m paranoid, not you. right, right.
