    Told you about Fauci being yet another weak person on that stage, he went from carefully correcting the idiot to defending his actions.

    To also pile on your dumbest statement on this forum so far and that's quite impressive that you keep trying to out do yourself.

    You are speaking of a person who ended up with less wealth than he inherited, a person who needs to beg for loans or use his political position to get one and a person who managed to bankrupt a casino, the only businesses that were somewhat stable was due to him not paying contractors.

    Don't use words like socialist you don't know what they mean.

    Especially when said idiot of a businessman isn't there to make others rich. They never are. Well, not unless it also makes himself rich in the process.

    So I had a look at yesterday’s infamous Trump video he showed at the press conference yesterday.

    It starts with „The media minimized the risk from the start“, and all the clips je shows with the „the flu is worse“ message are from Fox News.

    You can‘t make this shit up.

    Trump can try. And Trump supporters eat that shit up. Because they are just as racist and retarded as he is.

    But what would give you the idea that the businessman who is undermining the basic response will do better with the next crisis?
    And what would this leader actually do that make this recover happen? Judging by his short term thinking he would force the economy open again, ignoring the long term consequences (long term is 4-6 months). Give more tax breaks to the largest companies which frankly doesn't mean much if you don't have any revenue and don't pay that much to begin with.

    The next leader of the USA needs to confront the weaknesses that the current administration only exacerbated and that Obama wanted to tackle but only managed to do some changes through executive orders. So all the stuff that Sanders and Warren have been pointing out really.

    Think about your sociopathy and get back to us. You see, you’ve been groomed by conservative media whining for years about tan suits and fake government take overs that when something actually happens, you just laugh it off.

    You’re a sheep. You’re a cult member. You has no will of your own, and your fear of criticism makes it obvious that your self worth is crumbling because you’ve been lapping up the dregs of grifters and conmen and calling it a feast because your self worth depends on it.

    You’re losing your mind, and it’s great to see another “conservative” serf fall into despair.

    Remember, you tried to make it seem like it was ok for trump to say that he’ll withhold life saving aid from governments that don’t suck up to him by saying it was a “joke”.

    Think about that deeply and remember why people despise you.

    So Trump is going to try and impose total authority over the states. This should end well.

    Or he will back down like the bitch he is, but think he looks like the big man on campus to his base.

    I certainly got the impression that he's going to put the squeeze to them if they don't follow orders. Another Quid Pro Quo incoming? lol

    Pretty sure they are selective when they use that one. Depends on what their God Emperor want to give/take from the states.

    Yeah, remember that one FOX News host that said

    It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine
    I remember it like it killed tens of thousands of Americans.

    Business owners are pushing back the timetable of when they expect to recover.

    Axios posted a poll -- two of them, actually -- about "If COVID-19 were to end today, how long would it take for your company to get back to business as usual?"

    March 11, the majority of answers were "under a month".

    There is no longer a majority, but, the plurality said "1 to 3 months" while lumped together "1 to 6 months" is the majority.

    Trump is trying to push people back to work before even the work itself is ready for them.

    Even the CIA is telling their employees not to pay any attention to Trump's medical advice.

    Wasn't the guy just laying blame on the governors for not doing enough and it all being on them? I guess the governors have done a better than expected job so old Trump is trying to push his way on in to "be the guy that makes the calls" here before it is ready. How much do we have to put on if he does manage to force the whole system open again before we are ready and it blows up in our faces he will quickly be like.. oh yeah.. this is a governors thing.

    Good journalism is asking difficult questions, pushing through the bullshot and get to the truth.

    You can argue that MSNBC is very partisan and only show the president on a bad angle, but then, Fox News does the polar opposite.
    Fact of the matter, with this president, you don't need Fox News or MSNBC, you can read his tweet, hear his rally, see him answering questions.

    Regardless of political affiliation, this president is the absolute worse i've ever seen. Complete lack of understanding in just about everything coupled with a pathological narcissism. He a rich guy that never heard a "no" or a criticism in entire life.

    Everytime i hear him, i am amazed how surreal it is to keep hearing him praising himself non stop.

    "Styles and particulars" is what we are calling lying now? Does that term also cover narcissism and the complete absence of leadership?

    Does a "Leader" that only acknowledges good things about himself sound like a leader to you? Or is that just his "Styles and particulars".

    If i go on TV and say Coronavirus came to us from the moon, which would be the more appropriate chyron "Coronavirus comes from moon" or "Idiot claims Coronavirus comes from moon"?
