Right-wing authoritarians are thrilled with whatever their rightful authority figure says or does. That's what makes them right-wing authoritarians.
Our hospitals in Dallas are already very close to capacity. I am related to nurses working the ICU in 4 of the largest hospitals in Dallas and every one of them says that the ICU's are near bed capacity, but more importantly they are already past care capacity. They simply do not have enough staff to handle all the beds, because the hospitals actually laid off nurses last month because their numbers were down (because as most people were staying home there was considerably fewer hospitalizations overall).
May 26, 2020 - Baylor Scott & White will lay off about 1,200 and furlough others
Apr 16, 2020 - Tenet Healthcare furloughs 3,400 hospital workers, citing lost revenue from halt on elective surgeries
Otherwise, it sounds pretty darned dumb.
Either they're racist, or just love trolling, or likely both?Representatives of his base. What’s so amazing about this kung flu speech? What’s so inspirational about it to be cheering so rabidly?
Underneath, I've suspected, his motivations are to try to keep himself from going bankrupt... again. I haven't paid close attention, haven't taken a magnifying glass to his investments, but have heard what? Hotels, golf courses, casinos. Those have been pretty much shut down. He was very very likely heavily leveraged before the pandemic started happening. He's bleeding capital so fast, the red river is up to his, what? knees by now? He's "shshsh" don't tell anyone we have infections here, we want people to think everything's OK. Mingle, congregate, be unconcerned... [i.e. keep me from going bankrupt, and reelect me, please, the economy's fine, just fine...].What money? About 500 million in loans are due.
A boy who lived across the street from me (and turned into a full fledged juvenile delinquent) taunted a girl in junior high school who was named Tracy by calling her that, he was that big a dick. I wasn't laughing. Never heard it since. Don't know where he got it, maybe dreamed it up. Some people are just stupid.The whole Kung Flu thing is an obvious and lazy attempt to troll.
Reminds me of an older guy my Dad knew when I was a kid. Dude called all women cops “Dickless Tracy’s” which at the time was sort of funny but only sort of funny once or twice. The humor got old real fast after hearing it one thousand times and hearing an old guy laugh about it wasn’t funny it was irritating.
He tries to appeal to the dumb. The dumb need a champion, he figures, and their votes count just as much as those of Nobel laureates. He's dumb, it so happens. When he knows he doesn't know he tries to tease a vote out of someone else who doesn't know. It's a lazy tactic. He's lazy. And dumb.ANYwise, it sounds pretty darned dumb.
He comes off as a standup comic testing new material, but badly thought out to begin with. In very bad taste.Duuuuuur noone knows what the 19 is about duuuuuuuuuur
It also hurts his businesses: Hotels, casinos, golf courses and their facilities.it'll continue to get worse until trump is out of office because he thinks high positive numbers will hurt his reelection and he can't have that, now can he.
And the lack of that info in the news cycle yesterday was disheartening. They should have filled in the blanks.As has been probably pointed out, no need to ask the task force anything, just cut off the funding. So the testimony is true. And it's also true Trump's slowing down the testing, just via a different avenue.
Has anyone come forward to say Trump asked them to actually slow testing?
edit: I DO think his comment about slowing down testing was a joke, and I thought it was funny in a dark way. However, instead of saying "I dont kid" (which I think was made to troll the left) he shouldve said "Of course I was kidding". That was moronic to say.
As I tell my deplorable friends, I do not expect the President to spend his time trolling people. I expect the President to be prepared and to be capable of speaking concisely.
Your standards are entirely too high for this president.As I tell my deplorable friends, I do not expect the President to spend his time trolling people. I expect the President to be prepared and to be capable of speaking concisely.
So you dont actually answer their questions either?
Well they tend to specifically ask me a question.
Did someone ask me a question that I missed?
ps response will be delayed going into a 2PM appointment.

As previously said, even if he didn’t that means he’s repeatedly lied to the country about attempting to inhibit the government’s ability to battle a deadly pandemic disease.It was the first thing I posted:

It is amazing that at this point Trump has so little credibility that conservatives are now demanding we prove Trump’s own statements about his actions are true, and they are doing this while DEFENDING HIM.Trump: I said to slow down testing
Admin Spokesperson: No he didn't, it's a joke, lol j/k amirite?
Trump: No, seriously, I did
Non-trumpers: He said to slow down testing
Trumper: prove it!
What a joke this R admin is.
