I watched his speech in SC last night.
The President was talking about a "hoax" in terms of the Russia hoax and the Ukrainian hoax. He said that the Dems are more interested in playing politics than concerned with the lives of Americans.
He did not say the corona virus is a hoax. That's just media spin.
Quote:He did not say the corona virus is a hoax.
No he didn't just its impact is a hoax - same thing really. It was another don't panic and hurt my precious markets call.
The attitude is stuff those who will die. His attitude of underplaying this from the beginning has been irresponsible and led to doing nothing when preparations should have started long ago.
In fact the right steps may have been already underway had Trump not hacked the CDC budget to pieces and left many staff positions vacant.
That is right in the current budget Trump is cutting back the funding to the department responsible for the fight against communicable diseases and left the positions used to take action in this situation vacant.
Trump's incompetence is once again on show for all to see this is pure negligence. Many would say criminal negligence.
Even in this situation we see Trump listening to all the conspiracy theories and ignoring the science.
Good Luck USA you are going to need it with this bonzo running the show.
Ducky just received his latest socialist/Democrat script and its, wait for it, "blaming Donald Trump for the corona virus" and everything and anything else bad. Facts are irrelevant to Ducky Boy .. he just quacks on regardless.
Trump has actually moved very quickly to establish a task force and stopped all aircraft from China. He has made sure all safeguards are followed on the advice of his medical experts. "Be prepared but don't panic" is his message. But the demonically possessed press and democrats are using this crises for political gain and again as always it will backfire.
Its unfortunate that someone in WA state has died but just for perspective 250,000 Americans have died in the last month alone from all causes. All attention should be to stop it spreading.
Most disturbing is that a woman in California has contacted the virus BUT has had no reported contact with any carrier. So how is the virus spreading?
