He is certainly NOT a smart guy! Where in the world did you get that idea?

R
I am not a typical liberal. While, like most liberals who believe they are smarter than everybody else, I am smart enough to know better. I know that the reason I belittle others like Trump as being stupid is because I was made to feel stupid as the central thing nobody would want to be as a child. Stupid stupid stupid, I was told and I believed it even though I know that's not quite possible as I test rather well in some abilities. So, having understood something about myself and the origin of what makes me want to call others stupid, I am better able these days in my IQ irrelevant age to be able to judge who is stupid and who is not.

Thus, I can tell you that as a person who warned that Trump would win against Hillary Clinton, because, like other liberals who thought he was way way too stupid to win, I could see that he was, when it comes to manipulating people, quite skilled and cunningly brilliant. Trump is a liar and the way he lies is by not telling the truth. He can't do that by not knowing what it is. He simply has to ask himself what is to my advantage and with his massive and practiced ego he knows instantly what that is. You can even say he is gifted. Show me the dummy that can have 40% of the country eating out of his hand. Wake the hell up. Please, of course.

We need video. For all I know a black gay marxist antifa super soldier had a molotov to his head and forced him to say all this.
Clearly it actually was a can of soup because we know those are the really dangerous weapons...

Frankly, I’m totally shocked that Donald Trump had a much better and one could say educated understanding of the situation. Heck... we all thought Trump was clueless however this tape shows that Donald Trump understood the virus and understood the comparisons between the seasonal flu. Donald Trump understood the dangers to the young as well to the old. So apparently Donald Trump was listening to his experts and reading the briefings. In all fairness I must give Trump credit for being engaged and his ability to fully understand the virus. What happened after that is anyone’s guess. Trump now says his actions were to avoid panic within the people and within the economy. Ok... I give him that because who really knows how one would react given the country was facing a pandemic? If a killer meteor was headed for the earth, would the people be told? I doubt they would.

This could backfire for Democrats. This could big time backfire because now people can see that Donald Trump is much more engaged than previously thought. And in all truth, should Donald Trump get re-elected, I’m a little less concerned.about Trump’s ability to remain engaged. Regardless of Trump’s actions after the fact, he was much more engaged with the process, and from the recording Trump sounds quite common sensed. Sorry, but I think Democrats are in real trouble with this one and this tape just might have re-elected Donald Trump. Sorry. I know this is upsetting, I’m upset too, but this proves that Donald Trump is smarter than everyone imagined. It is what it is. Now, let’s see if the media can spin this into Joe Biden’s favor?

Clearly the President has no balls to smack that guy in the face.
This is why that excuse would never happen.

I know I know. Obviously Trump understood the dangers nearly from the beginning. So... what happened? Well, I think... or Donald Trump might have thought... that Trump understood economics and understood immigration however a pandemic? That was not Trump’s area of expertise. Donald should have stood back and allowed the experts to handle it. But there is the problem, where Donald Trump must appear to know if all. And never should Trump have put Mike Pence in charge, that only made a circus out of his pandemic response. Why Trump did not put in place a group of experts and follow their advice was the flaw. I don’t know... I guess we’ll see how this play’s out.

trump will likely win but only because his diversionary tactics play well. I'd add that he doesn't know anything about the economy or immigration other than how to use them as part of his diversionary propaganda campaigns.

If what you say is true doesn't that make it malicious vs clueless and isn't that much worse?

Ugh. I figure Trump is getting his ass kicked. Dem turnout will be huge. It's a whole different election than 4 years ago. Back then, Clinton was so thoroughly slimed that Dem turnout was depressed & distracted. And, I mean, she was gonna win anyway, right? People aren't dumb enough to make Trump President, are they?

I understand the problem with this, and Im sure by now youve heard the interview and the reason Trump came out "soft" on this. So let me ask you...do you think the government has an obligation to simply present everything to the public right when they learn it? For example, this list shows terrorist attacks prevented, so were in the news, some werent, but its safe to assume this is just what has been shared with the public.

If a terrorist has been confirmed with a dirty bomb in Los Angeles, should the government announce on the 5oclock news theres a terrorist on the loose in LA with a dirty bomb? Do you know what panic from the public would be like?

Huh, it took about six hours for the talking points to come out.

I guess Trump didn't want to panic people by TAKING BASIC FUCKING PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT THE VIRUS SPREADING AND KILLING PEOPLE.

So closing flights from the originating country and creating the coronavirus task force in January doesnt even qualify as basic? WTF is wrong with you?
