Coronavirus Thread: Trump White House Cuts All Funding For The Program Meant To Prevent The Next Viral Pandemic.

[Viper1j]

Bottom line: Trump won't give a shit until the First Concubine Ivanka gets it.

Pence just can't stop ass kissing when in the room with Trump

Geez everyone getting to the ass kissing

 

[HomerJS]

Nah. I don't want to take advantage of anybody.

Looks like I would have won.

Reporter: CDC said it was inevitable virus will strike here. Do you agree?
Trump: I don't think its inevitable.

Fuck science, all hail Trump!!

Trump sounded dumb as usual, but nothing egregious. Stayed on script. Appointing Pence seems kinda dumb, but maybe there's good precedent?

Well. She is now labeled as an anti-trumper

Rush Limbaugh Accuses Nancy Messonnier of Being Anti-Trump

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh seemed to bash a top official from the Centers for Disease Control by insinuating she's among those who are trying to overhype fears of the coronavirus and bring down President Donald Trump.

The HIV outbreak he failed to contain in Indiana?

Also we seem kinda fucked

I hope that self patting on the back fest, results in some real action. Amazing how you can take credit for events that may or may not transpire.

That part did amuse me. Trump is such an amazing president because under his leadership we haven't all died yet. If Obama were president, I'm sure it would be a wasteland.

 

[Amused]

Trump just appointed Pence -- a man with no medical experience whatsoever and personally responsible for causing a major HIV epidemic in Indiana when he was governor -- to head the Coronavirus pandemic.
Let that sink in.

If nothing happens, Trump saved us all!
If something happens....

The wheels on the bus go thump and thump
thump and thump
thump and thump
The wheels on the bus go thump and thump
All the President's men.

Pence? *facepalm*. Time to pray the virus away. Man Trump really spray tanned the shit out of himself for that presser. He looks like a ghoul. It's a perfectly American health clusterfuck. We elected a moron who originally ignores the threat as to not spook markets, while at the same time sick people must avoid going to hospital for the coronavirus test because they can't afford the fees, but they still have to go to work or risk losing wages.

We dumbassed ourselves.

HHS director, Alex Azar, is making sure that the drug companies make a profit from the Covid-19 vaccine and, therefore, can not guarantee that it will be affordable.

"We would want to ensure that we work to make it affordable, but we can't control that price, because we need the private sector to invest.. Price controls won't get us there."

We're fucked.

Trump this evening: We have 15 total cases, no big deal.

CDC this evening: Akshually, we have more like 60 cases in the US, including indications of community spread (someone getting infected without any direct travel exposure) in California.

Didn't you know you don't count the 45 people quarantined.

The scary thing is that this really is the kind of situation people warned would happen with Trump back in 2016: there's a crisis where lives are at stake, and Trump is being cavalier with facts and delegation in a way that could genuinely get people sick.

I mean, people have already died needlessly because of Trump's decisions (just ask families at the Mexican border), but there's a real risk of a mess that even his loyalists can't paper over.

Qasem Soleimani (regardless of what you might think of him) and the ~150 passengers on Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 also come to mind

Here we go. First case person did not leave country or exposed to a known carrier

Coronavirus Northern California: New case confirmed in Solano County, origin unknown

CALIFORNIA CORONAVIRUS: Since the person has "no relevant travel history," the CDC suggests the virus could be spreading in a local area. Solano County is home to Travis Airforce Base, where Americans returning from overseas have been quarantined for coronavirus screening.

Like Hillary said, there is a public and private face.

Public Trump (and every world leader): Nothing to see here, keep investing in our businesses.
Private Trump: Why the fuck did you let them cross our border, State Dept, when I told you not to?

Me: Just picked up a 3M Respirator and swimming goggles. Since I'm already always prepared, we could go 6 months off my stash of dry organic beans. Which do you like better, Pinto or Black or Garbanzo? My kid likes the Black beans the best. I made Pinto with my super secret salt and he liked them. Says he wants more. I heat up more Pinto. "No daddy, I wanted black beans!" /facepalm

BREAKING: Trump administration introduces team tasked with handling coronavirus response.

Big part of Trump's BSS team. (Both Sides Squad.)



“Flu will not replace us!!”

 

[sportage]

I hear CA has some new cases that came out of nowhere.
No link to others, no link with travel abroad.
But... since CA is not one of Trump's friendly places, Trump will say in Trump's own special way... WHO GIVES A DAMN.

PS, By The Way...
For all those religious people out there, it states somewhere within scripture that ""The merchants of the world will weep and mourn for her, for there is no one left to buy their goods.""
Hmmmm....
A pandemic virus just might be the ticket for causing something like that.
I mean, if god was really pissed at the world and at America and at Christians for supporting and worshiping above all someone like a Donald Trump, then for god to send down a deadly virus of pandemic proportions would not be so unlike god.

And as with most plagues of biblical proportions cast down upon mortals, god has his (or her) "special way" of pinpointing who, how, and what that plague targets.
Considering Donald Trump is all about wealth and riches and greed and money it only seems natural that this coronavirus plague brought forth from god would target what Donald Trump cherishes the most..... wealth and greed and money and riches.
Without a robust market and without Donald Trump redirecting great wealth onto the rich, then for what good is Donald Trump to anyone ?????

If Donald Trump loses his financial empire and the country loses its financial stability, then Donald Trump is nothing.
His promises are nothing.
His achievements are nothing.
His worth is nothing.
This pandemic could be only to punish Donald Trump and to punish those that align with him. To strip Donald Trump naked and powerless.
Oh that silly god..... just maybe he (or she) knows exactly what he (or she) is doing. And no wonder Donald Trump is so very mad at a virus.
A virus that threatens the kingdom of Donald Trump. And as the pharaoh said during his plagues from god, "Dear citizens of Egypt, we are royally FU-ed."

Pence, who allowed an HIV outbreak to spread out of control and tried to pray for guidance as to what to do. talk about your unintended consequences, force to close the only medical clinic in an area due to anti-abortion views overrule common sense.

After Trump appoints Pence to oversee coronavirus response, initial reports don’t include that he enabled HIV outbreak in Indiana

The sucking sounds are deafening. That public private thing is for foreign countries. Lying to your own people is something you condone because it is Trump. So who are you going to believe the CDC or your God??

 

[HomerJS]

Remember when a reporter asked to you agree with the CDC it is inevitable a case not connected to foreign travel (community spread) will hit the US. Trump said he doesn't believe it is inevitable.

Even if your best case scenario "well he was just trying to be positive" were true guess what? That first case in California was KNOWN to the White House BEFORE the presser. In other words Trump LIED TO THE PUBLIC about a non travel related case hitting the United States.
