This is why this man was unfit for the present moment. From the beginning, to now and beyond, only one thing has mattered to him: the effect of this on his re-election.
That’s why he dithered at first.
That’s why he wants everything opened by Easter.
That’s why he seeks to shift blame, first and foremost.
I saw this tweet and depression set in. No other leader anywhere in the world would say this.

Support for the government always rises in times of crisis. GWB’s approval rating after 9/11 was in the 90s - an all-time high.
It’s temporary, though.

According to CNN, enemy #1, Trump's approval is at an all time high and approval for his handling of the crisis is at 60%.
Elsewhere. Shocking that CNN would carry the truth about Trump.

Don't take me wrong. I'm joking. I just thought that everyone in NYC wanted all federal resources and $ focused on the 5 boroughs.

tweet that the virus was a media creation or that everyone should go back to work. In fact, the precautions that we now follow are at his admin's guidance. But he did accurately call out the msm's behavior of intentionally inciting panic for political motives as well as off hope to the country of a recovery that would be sooner than the Left would like with the upcoming election and a candidate that is mentally unfit and is being hidden now.

He said it more than once.
Why do you continue to push back when there is video and contemporaneous evidence contrary to your arguments?
That’s why you’re called a cultist.

Hearing what he actually says would change their version of reality.

As you focus on all his verbal gaffes, but ignore his years and years of service in the Senate and as VP.
His talk is just bull shit.

How else would they find out what to be depressed about? I don't follow him but I see his retweets from people I follow. They crack me up.
And I was just reminding him to wash his hands. Looking out for his well being since his TDS level is out of control. He could have forgotten.

tells us, we're not going to free from it for sometime
But the real question is, why would a sitting president make a dumbass prediction (publicly) like that when the obvious is obvious
not to mention those who work in the field are hoping at best for it to be over june/july?
He's a selfish fucking moron who cares little for this country - he's throwing dice and it's for his benefit, not yours.

2 which had been the norm for almost a week. The isolation and shutdown appeared to be working.
The numbers will still overflow the hospitals and ICU bed count by Friday. The death toll is rising rapidly.
I know this guy; he is an expert on intel failures.

It was the WHO who reassured our CDC and in thurn the CDC then the president about the corona virus in mid January (see the WHO Jan 14 tweet saying that it wasn't transmitting human to human if you don't believe me). The WHO had been lied to by China and provided with false data which they took as fact.
DESPITE THIS, as signals rolled in of China expelling foreign reporters and continued conflicting reports came out of China, Trump elected to halt all travel to our largest trading country - this despite the media calling him a racist, and this despite the fact that it would hit his economy in an election year. To this day, it is the single biggest move to "flatten the curve" that has been done by anyon in the world to date.
Now, let's look at your article. Specifically this gem of a quote of what passes for journalism these days:
"Last week, the Washington Post reported on the steady drumbeat of coronavirus warnings that the intelligence community presented to the White House in January and February. These alerts made little impact upon senior administration officials, who were undoubtedly influenced by President Donald Trump’s constant derision of the virus, which he began on Jan. 22: “We have it totally under control." ".
a) Her source of information is the hyper partisan WaPo
b) Her claim that the alerts coming in made little impact on senior officials is clearly false since they did carry out the most drastic option available which was to shut down all travel to China, despite the WHO health experts still not calling it a crisis
c) Her statement that Trump senior staff "was undoubtedly influenced by President Donald Trump's constant derision of the virus" is a fucking assumption made by a clearly biased, and unprofessional journalist. yet you take this as fact.
Tell me how she can know what was influencing them, and tell me how she supports her claims about trump who still acted more strongly than she or the rest of the media thought was appropriate at the time?
Now, since we are talking about intellegince failures, when has the intelligence department done something right? They missed 9/11, WMD's,Soviet collapse,
Bay of Pigs, Rosenbergs, Iranian Revolution, Soviets into Afghanistan, etc., etc.. A department littered with so many failures who also spied on their political opponent yet failed there too, ultimately.
so does his Daddy.

"He is an expert". What he obviously is, is a partisan based on the points that I made.

I really enjoy Pence standing behind him during these crapshow press conferences nodding his head. I wonder where his Christian principles are when this idiots is spreading misinformation and giving dangerous advice to people?
Jackass is worried about getting re-elected, not about the American people.
