meazza Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 Let's be honest, Trump touting that things will be open in Easter doesn't stray too far from his usual off the cuff proclamations. I don't understand how people simply haven't gotten used to not taking those comments seriously. 4

SoCal Deek Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 5 minutes ago, Gary Busey said: His goals for tomorrow (Easter) are scientifically impossible. All I'm asking for is for him to be realistic. I have a business I would like to open this summer. The longer he pretends things are improving (they're not - look at the numbers) the longer this is going to drag out. This is true. If you see strength and comfort in our current president, that's good. I see a child-like adult saying something different each day. Ya see Gary...you CAN have a conversation! Thank you. (Seriously) So in the end, you disagree with the President’s style of messaging? That’s a legitimate opinion...I guess. However, with that taken into account, I’m not sure why the style of message would bother you. When you get to be President, you can deliver the message as you want to.

Justin Trudeau (who many of you here on the left would vote for) was extremely inactive up until a couple of weeks ago even though there were clear signs that this was going to hit Canada. Same thing for Italy and France. Everyone of these leaders took it lightly. Trump banning travel from China in January was a good move but it should have also been followed up by testing people coming into the country starting in February when this was obviously going to cause problems. All western leaders deserve a kick in the ass for this mess. 1

Listen to the experts he talks out of his ass - It's only the flu and it all be over by April. It will disappear, it will be a miracle. Stop telling lies. - “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA,” he tweeted in late February “Anybody that needs a test, gets a test. They’re there. They have the tests. And the tests are beautiful.” He only took this serious when the markets crashed, not when the cases were exploding. Don't you ever tire of looking at things from such an intellectually shallow perspective? Seriously, your grasp on issues is so tenuous that I'm embarrased for you. 1 1

I don't understand how people simply haven't gotten used to not taking those comments seriously. I understand the point but he actually didn’t say they’d be better by Easter. He said he HOPED that things would be well enough along by Easter that people could go to Church. Of course, that ‘hope’ is very confusing to people who don’t celebrate Easter, but rather think of it as just an annoying day when you can’t get a table at Sunday brunch. 2

It means that no senior level person will be specifically focused on the work that needs to be done to protect us from this serious threat. And it means that the team will tilt their focus more toward intentional attacks using infectious diseases, and less on the more frequent (and just as serious) risk of naturally spread diseases.” Then there was the early warning by former members...on January 28th https://www.wsj.com/articles/act-now-to-prevent-an-american-epidemic-11580255335 Quote The novel coronavirus now epidemic in China has features that may make it very difficult to control. If public-health authorities don’t interrupt the spread soon, the virus could infect many thousands more around the globe, disrupt air travel, overwhelm health-care systems, and, worst of all, claim more lives. The good news: There’s still an opening to prevent a grim outcome. Unfortunately, that window of opportunity was squandered because the stock market and economy were too important....

And you know this how exactly? Did you work there? Many that do work there have said that’s simply not true. But....the point is that our ‘response’ was pretty much spot on. We shut down travel from known infected areas and immediately ramped up production and readiness once we found out that some people had gotten through the shut down.
