  1. They called it a hoax and made it political at the conference where they got exposed to the virus. That’s karma.

    1. @Dan McFarland 👈🤪
      Are you infected??
      Either way how do we believe you if you was to say??
      You’re fake president has lied repeatedly over and over and making up false statements information twisting this twisting that.
      So how do Americans believe dumpass loser???

    2. 👄trump politicized it previously…when they could no longer keep it from the critical thinking American people!!!

    3. undertow Johns Hopkins Coronavirus data as of March 10, 2020
      Total number of Coronavirus cases worldwide 119,004
      Total number of Coronavirus deaths worldwide 4, 284 = 3.6% Mortality rate!
      Percentage of deaths of Coronavirus worldwide. 3.6%
      Common Flu Mortality Rate .1%

      On the Sean Hannity show, Donald Trump stated that he had a hunch that the Coronavirus mortality rate is less than 1%. Apparently, Donald Trump’s hunches aren’t valid! The hard facts as reported by Johns Hopkins hospital show that the Coronavirus is 36 times more deadly than the common flu.

    4. Rick Ammon your preaching to the choir. They had one chance to stop it and passed on getting tests from Germany. Trump screwed us.

    5. @undertow I agree but now we have hard numbers from a highly respected source to demonstrate how dangerous the Coronavirus is to everyone. At the bottom of my post is a link to a documentary showing the real threat the Coronavirus poses to the world. I highly recommend watching it!

  2. Reporter: Should Trump be tested?
    Nancy: Tested for what?
    Reporter: The Coronavirus.
    Nancy: I thought the president should be tested for a long time now…

    😂 😂 😂

  3. Republicans can call the Coronavirus a Dem hoax all they want, but the Coronavirus doesn’t care about your ‘Fake News’ dribble.
    The absolute incompetence of this administration is beyond a threat to America itself.

    1. @Tracey Wingfield Your response certainly is whacked! Are you a Trump Troll and do you work in the West Wing?

    2. @Rick Ammon one more time. The coronavirus loves the lack of response from these governments because it gets to live on in infamy, thrive, grow. I said what I said.

  4. Trump was exposed to to someone with Coronavirus more than anyone else, and yet he sets the bad example of not self quarantining!!!!!!!

    1. Olivia Dzide You are just another Trump supporter with zero facts, and hate.
      I have never had an encounter with a Trump supporter that was anything else.
      You just expose yourselves as hatefilled, miserable, narcissistic idiots.
      Since you support then, exposing yourself to the virus, go get it, but don’t spread it to your ignorant kids you are raising

  5. Ignorance is the the number 1 ingredient to make things worse. Ignorance being a cornerstone of the trump regime and trumpublican party.

    1. At face value, it appears trump and his administration willingly spread false narratives in order to [harm] his opposition. Everyone is plotting against him. And it usually turns against him making him look stupid. And his base just eats up his lies. Incredible.

    2. @Dan McFarland Danny, try posting something that makes sense.
      You are a perfect example of inbreeding and truancy yourself..

    3. @Dan McFarland
      Acting President tRump just loves undoing things that President Obama did or didn’t do!
      Well President Obama “DIDN’T DIE”whilst in office!
      So come on Acting President tRump here’s your chance, to do America and the world a massive service and commit Hari kari!
      You know that President Obama would never have the courage to do it!
      Your time is NOW to make America “REALLY GREAT AGAIN”
      I am sure that the FOX org would love to televise you committing this ultimate sacrifice for the good of the country and the world!

  6. But why should he be tested? He said that it’s just a democratic hoax! So why should he be tested or worried?????

    1. @j-p collins nope, been awake a long time. But I am waking up to one thing….the true nature of Democrats. I used to think they had the edge on caring for people and were just nicer overall. I was WRONG! BAD WRONG!

    2. @Natasha Norman I have been waking up too! I used to think the Republicans stand for protecting America’s interest and for the Christian values but I was WRONG! BAD WRONG!

  7. Hmmm. Why are Republicans self-quarantining if they have only potentially been exposed to a simple flu?

    1. @El Jay you’re contagious 12 hours after exposure. You don’t show symptoms for 2 to 14 days. The test can detect that you are contagious but not yet symptomatic.
      Any three clean test over 72 hour. To be fairly sure that you’re actually clean though. 1 test is insufficient. And in San Antonio we found two tests are insufficient.

    3. @Rick Ammon one thing… You should look at the Chinese data on the John Hopkins track. Because it’s tending towards 4% death rate. And they still have over 10,000 cases left to resolve. Not all of those are going to recover.

      One of the thing hey.. It takes 24 days for the cases to resolve from onset of symptoms until the person is either dead or recovered on average.

  8. The sad part is, Trump knows it’s not a hoax. Apparently he ordered Gaetz removed from his presence as soon as the exposure possibility became known. Yet he’s happy to go on twitter or on camera and tell his delusional base that it’s just a Democrat hoax designed to make him look bad.

    1. surely you joke, mein failüre The moron doesn’t need anyone to make him look bad ,he’s perfectly able to do that himself.

    2. He never said it was a hoax, please at least use snopes so you don’t spread lies.
      What’s False

      Despite creating some confusion with his remarks, Trump did not call the coronavirus itself a hoax.

    3. @Natasha Norman stop trying to Pivot. Everyone who saw the press conference and saw the clip from his own rally knows Mr Trump said it.

    1. @President of the Virgin Islands Cool. This might get real fun for me. I eat Trump trolls for breakfast.

    2. @Dave Schultz By the way, How many black and Mexican children did your son step on in order to help the little Russian girl?

    3. @Patrick Aalfs, I know your definition of “Eating Trolls for breakfast”. Its calling them a “Russian”. Oooooh thats sooo tough!

    4. @Dave Schultz To repeat myself once again. Didn’t call you a Russian. Called you a Traitor. Called you a Putin sycophant. Called you a Benedict Arnold draped in a dirty confederate flag. If you’re too thick to get offended, you shouldn’t wear big boy pants and play on the internet. If you can’t respond to the comments I’ve leveled directly against you, you’re simply too spoiled to even “wet my appetite.”

    5. @Dave Schultz Wow, information from a right wing political article. And not one citation. Do you understand what the word “assertion” means? It’s making claims while providing no evidence. The people who write these articles have no credibility because they don’t or can’t cite evidence. They either make political assertions or regurgitate other unsubstantiated assertions as citation.

  9. I don’t think elected officials should get paid for there self quarantine. Most Americans won’t get get paid and will lose a lot more than them

    1. Typically I agree with you, however, if Nancy would stop joking and start working, they are requesting pay for people who are having to be off because of this. I know CNN doesn’t show it, or MSNBC but it’s true.

  10. If there’s a god, he seems to have a great sense of humor. This sounds like the plot to a cheesy movie. The government officials who mocked a growing pandemic then become exposed to the virus and suddenly demand that everyone take it seriously. It would be hilarious if it were not real life.

    1. @Natasha Norman
      Wow you heard a lot of things!!!!!!!!!!!
      Does that include those buzzing sounds that your poor suffering sole brain Cell makes as it try’s to escape that now empty void between your ears?
