An ICU Nurse On Losing Her Father, Working On The Frontlines | Katy Tur | MSNBC
So you want your freedom but have no responsibility..there’s a term for that..its called Childhood!!
I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOST LINDSEY.
As long as there are people who love to believe fake conspiracy theories, there are people to make them and Trump isn’t alone in this.
This is America in 2020. Not the best place to be. My condolences to the young nurse who lost her dad.
These healthcare workers are the best of us. Trump and his supporters are the worst of us.
The virus is from China. You should place blame where it should be and remind yourself where the virus came from a year from now.
@Chris B What’s your point?
@Robert Jacobs The virus is from China and every country was exposed to this virus because of them.
After Trump started talking about people staying home Pelosi said “Come to Chinatown”
She is third in-line. She was briefed just as Trump was. Use your head and stop accepting the narrative they are spoon feeding you.
@Chris B Chris, I am aware that China, was responsible for the creation of this terrible virus, but if Trump informed the nation in January, it may have saved millions of American lives. As of today America, has lost 290,439 of its citizens to this virus. Blaming China is one issue but we as a nation must come together and put an end to this virus. It’s not an individual rights issue it’s not a political issue, it’s a God Damned PANDEMIC that’s out of control because when in the early day’s of this virus Trump, told the nation that it was all a hoax. He’s the leader of the free world what gives him the right to state it is a hoax? Men and women like Dr. Fauci, are tops in their fields if you think I’m going to listen to Trump over someone like Dr. Fauci then I’ll sell you the Brookline bridge in New York, for a buck!
Bottom line, put on the mask, and think of the other person next to you, and don’t be so God Damned SELFISH!
@Chris B Sorry Chris, it’s the president’s job to explain to the citizens what was going on and when and he failed the American people. As for the speaker, Pelosi she’s older than dirt and needs to retire before she puts her size 12 foot in her mouth again! Oh, Chris, I’ve been around on this planet for a number of decades, and in MY view Trump is by far and away the second-worst president in my life outside of Nixon.
This is a very sad and dangerous times.where plenty good people are dying from this virus.who can helping save these people from this virus are killing people.this is a very sad times.
Lacks of leadership and yes that is you X-President Donald Trump Jan 20th. Many Americans are dying and I’m not sure how that MAGA, but a sure thing, you are going back to your tower. Also, I’m sure you will be jail before 2024.
He ruined America and won’t run a second time after the litigation awaiting him
The thing about all these Trumpies is that no matter how much you explain the situation to them even when you make it so clear that a 5 year old understands it, they won’t accept the reality no matter how much you seperate the fact from their fiction. They just won’t let go, they are too far gone.@William H Music 2020 is one of those examples.
We can only hope so and for many years too !
@William H Music 2020 it is NOT fact, and your post has nothing to do with this piece
For christ’s sake, what’s taking so long?
Trump has two parts of a brain “left & right”
In the “Left” there’s nothing right and
In the “right” there’s nothing left
Trump has two parts of a brain “left & right”
In the “Left” Grab em by the VaChiinaaa.
In the “right” How do i lie, cheat and deal with my debt.
@Ianthe22 LMAO
@AllNiteLemonade Sorry friend. Didn’t mean to pervert your post. Sadly enough we are at a point in history where this is actually a part of realityXD. It’s all so silly. And i am also feeling sorry to joke around the videos grave and serious messages.
Yes, neither side knows what the other side is doing! Trump your FIRED!
*—If you could reason with a Trump supporter, they wouldn’t be Trump supporters—* ….
SHE IS SO WISE..GOD BLESS HER…MY CUZ IS A DR. IN MEXICO CITY.. IT’S RELENTLESS… LET’S KEEP IN MIND HEALTH WORKER FATIGUE!!!!!!!
I’d like us to rethink
What it is to be a nation. I’m in a mood about America
Today.

We would be in such a different place if trump had of stepped up to the plate. My heart goes out to this young lady and all those who have lost loved ones because of this very contagious and deadly virus.
There is a big difference between ‘America First’ and ‘American’s First’.
She sounds numb from all the loss she’s witnessed by the pandemic 😷. That’s very sad to me to hear……
The COVID-19 anti vaxxers, deniers, and the selfish careless ones who refuse to protect others by simply wearing a mask need to see it to believe it.allow the media to video their struggles and deaths
I remember the day when Trump, told the nation that the virus was a HOAX. It was then I thought he made a terrible error in judgment or was it just stupidity? Now today 12/7/2020, in America, we have lost over 290,439+ DEAD Americans. Trump, knew of this virus in January of 2020, and didn’t inform the nation until what, early March? He’s a SOB.
These nurses are like angels on earth.
No they are doing their job. The fake news media praises healthcare workers like they are saints and angels but you never hear a word for veterans of wars.
Our federal government had completely FAILED! Since election night our president has been gone…its like he just didn’t show up for work. He’s more concern about scamming people for money and fighting a delusional fight. Kudos to the nurses and docs.
Yes, I fully agree with you, and people need to hear citizens’ thoughts. In my eyes, he just doesn’t care about our citizens just his own pockets! LOSER!
My condolences to that Nurse’s father who passed. Every death is a tragedy.
Everybody dies.
Not everybody dies a lonely, frightened death unable to be with their family because a brain dead president let a pandemic spread out of control because of a subhuman inability to care for anyone except themselves. We are cursed with Trump and his nonresponse to the Covid threat. Sounds like you have quite a bit in common with Trump.
This is heartbreak on a scale nobody should have to experience. Be careful everyone–freedom not to wear a mask is not worth possibility of losing a family member like this.
Very-good point now it would really matter if someone would explain to the misguided Trump followers that FACT that not wearing a mask outside further puts ALL of us in danger, not just YOU the individual.
Thank you for risking your own life to save others. You and people in your profession are heroes in my book.
