SoCal Deek Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 Nice try Slim! Within the span of three minutes two of these so called journalists asked the President if he was being too optimistic, and then too pessimistic. Give me a break! These aren’t reporters, these are Resistance Fighters. Horrible people....sitting there on the cushy arses while others are doing all of the work! 2

They’re asking questions with no answers. They’re asking questions about feelings not facts.And I believe they’re being taught to do so in ‘journalism’ school. You ask a question so that you can spin the answer into the narrative you’ve predetermined you want to write. Thus, the President pushes back. He knows what they’re going to write will be full of snarky crap. I honestly can’t believe he’s as polite and patient as he is! I’d tell these folks to go f@&& themselves. 1 1

Maybe you missed it...it's on that page at least I saw the article, and it relies on the talking points that we discussed before. As more data comes and scientists learn more about the virus, it does turn out that personal behavior plays a huge role in stemming the spread. Otherwise you wouldn't be seeing the wide variation of the spread across nations. There seems to be a very low probability of spreading the virus through the air, with person to person contact or putting your germy hands on your face being the most likely culprit. That's why countries that preach good hygiene fare a bit better and why social distancing rules should help. But getting back to the point of the most recent contention about RI being concerned about NY moving up there, while ignoring the greater risk of Mass right next door. Again, because NY is weeks ahead of Mass, the migrating NYers are less likely to carry the virus as of now. Even if they do, we're talking about dozens maybe hundreds of asymptomatic NYers, vs thousands of Mass & RI residents crossing each others' paths on a daily basis. So, please tell me about that math again. That's why I'm glad Cuomo B word slapped Raimondo for being an idiot.

YET In a presser Alcindor began her question by directly quoting Trump from a recent interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, in which the president said he does not believe New York needs all the ventilators that Gov. Andrew Cuomo said they did. “And you know a lot ― a lot of equipment’s being asked for that I don’t think they’ll need but I’m building,” Trump told Hannity, according to the transcript. “You know, we’re building four hospitals, four medical centers and many other things we’ve developed and sent thousands of ― thousands of ventilators.” Why don’t “you people” act “a little more positive?” Trump told Alcindor as she continued to try and finish her question. “Let me tell you something. Be nice. Don’t be threatening, don’t be threatening. Be nice.” Trump then had Alcindor’s microphone taken away when she tried to ask her second question. this looks like obvious sarcasm (I hope) in that light - LOL If you are being serious.... Waiting MONTHS to act is better than anyone ever before? Well. Thanks for that. I bet they said the same thing about world leaders when the Black Plague ended too. https://youtu.be/sR3f95BGIiA

The WHO was still stating that the virus couldn't be passed between humans when Trump closed our borders for travel to and from China. Your bolded statement above is an outright lie. How or why would anyone believe anything that you post? You don't even link anything to your stupid speculation. LOL. Please post a link with truthful facts. A few weeks after the outbreak began in China’s Hubei province in December, U.S. health officials warned Trump of the seriousness of the threat. But in his first public comments about the virus, on Jan. 22, Trump told the public he wasn’t worried. “Not at all,” he said. “We have it totally under control.” Throughout February, Trump dismissed Democrats’ alarm about the virus as their new “hoax,” blamed “the Democrat policy of open borders” for the pathogen’s spread and insisted that his Jan. 31 decision to restrict travel from China had contained the outbreak. By Feb. 29, officials reported the first coronavirus–related death of an American on U.S. soil. https://time.com/5805683/trump-administration-coronavirus/ Trump’s first Major error in the crisis came a year and a half before the novel coronavirus first emerged in Wuhan, China. In May 2018, he authorized his then National Security Adviser, John Bolton, to eliminate the National Security Council’s global health security unit and demote its pandemic experts.
