Fmr. Ebola Czar: U.S 'So Far Behind' On Coronavirus Response | Hallie Jackson | MSNBC
‘One day it will disappear, like a miracle, but we don’t really know’ Way to reassure, trump!
His base of course believe it, hope somebody with Coronavirus goes to a Trump rally and infects the lot of them.
With pence in charge, all we have to do is pray for that miracle to happen. 😏☺😆
Way to go science!!!
@Mainely The seasonal flu is far deadlier. But I’m not amazed that you believe the Coronavirus is a doomsday event. Anything to sell your agenda! Meanwhile… everyone is silent about the spread of medieval diseases around homeless camps and the epicenter of anti-vaxxer hippies in blue states. Wouldn’t want to vet people entering the country regarding proper immunizations and disease testing – that’s racist! Open borders! Let the Coronavirus spread like plague! Oh wait, that’s sensationalism….
It’s clearly because of the republicans complacencies and blatant incompetence !!!!
America’s Disgraceful Cowards !!!
@mpalfadel2008 what a well planned thought out response. Thanks for proving me correct. Bye bye now crybaby.
Bub loves lunch in a bucket have a good day mindless bot
@Bub loves lunch in a bucket This Coronavirus is the wrath of GOD you want to know it is GOD and these Republicans have no clue God is angry with this administration because of their Incompetence and Corruption… GOD is Cursing everything from the Stock Market the thing’s that Trump Love’s which is Money So GOD Almighty is hitting Trump where it hurts… I am not wrong on this look around and see this is God’s Anger at the incompetence and Corruption GOD Doesn’t Like it and it will get much much worse then better Trump hasn’t learned anything Remember when Susan Collins said that Trump learned his lesson no actually GOD Knows The Heart’s and Mind’s of his children and Trump being one of God’s Disobedient Children he hasn’t learned his lesson and until he wakes up it will continue to get worse…. GOD has the final say as he said: I am that I am he can be what ever he GOD Almighty wants to be… His Wrath is upon this Whitehouse and this Administration…. It is a cursed administration…. By GOD Almighty…
@mpalfadel2008 lol and you people wonder why you’re laughed at constantly with this childish bs….I couldn’t have hoped for you to respond in a more baby like manner. Thanks dude!
SAID THE PARTY THAT HAS DESTROYED JUST ABOUT EVERY CITY WITH CRIME ,VIOLENCE , DRUGS, GANGS, AND WELFARE HANDOUTS
SAID THE PARTY THAT SUPPORTS THE MURDER OF DEFENSELESS BABIES (650,000 A YEAR)
Impossible! We’ve got “a very stable genius” and a guy who probably believes humans and dinosaurs coexisted. Nothing but the best and brightest for us!
Even funnier than Murchadh.
You might want to check out how Mike Pence handled an HIV outbreak in Indiana.
That will not fill you with confidence
LOL
” Nobody really knows.”
–Trump
And he knows EVERYTHING, from another quote.
@Aries Smith He almost has the intelligence of a mountain goat. That’s what u meant, right?
@Don Johnson say what you want about his personality… That’s your opinion. But his policies are set in stone. Signed into law. What’s wrong with them bud? Lol. All I hear from democrats is the same old sh*t. Same response everytime.>> an insult to his personality, how he talks, he’s orange, etc… But when it comes to reality, you guys can’t hold an argument about “policies” lol.
Btw trumps is a billionaire… wtf does he have to gain going through all the sham bs “investigations” and being ridiculed by 90% of the press? Where’s your commen sense? Pro life policies, pro Christian policies and pro American policies.
And by definition, the three “Pro policies” I mentioned… throughout HISTORY, living by these ideologies, create prosperous societies.
Bernie represents socialism (he publicly admits it)… and the Democrate candidates (for the most part) the same thing.
Look up the history of socialism, and let ME know if it was a formula for middle class prosperity? Answer: MOST DEFINITELY NOT.
Abortion itself is genoside… But soon, the Republicans will have the house of representatives and will COMPLETELY ban abortion. Trumps always hated it. He’s already called on Congress for “anti-abortion” laws.
Do you really think God is going to expect “the killing of babies” as righteous? Simply because they call it “pro choice” ???
The F*** outta here man…
Holy crap! The Drumph people are so unprepared for anything like this. Oh… And the stock market? Who cares? Say goodbye to any chance of re election. LMFAO.
@Agent Cooper so tell us genius how did you prepare
snoop alert by starting not to live in the US. So no chance I get shot in a mall or at a universaty and also having a superb functioning medical system where all hospitals are already prepared for the worst.
trump needs to disappear that’s what is needed.
He shakes hands with lots of people, apparently, including people he can’t even remember – like Lev Parnas. All that hand-shaking poses a high risk of infection, especially if there are lots of asymptomatic infected people wearing MAGA hats.
The coronavirus is most deadly to men over 60. Donald Trump ,Mitch McConnell and Vladimir Putin are all in that age bracket.
We may actually see some uncharacteristically benevolent behavior from those three out of self-interest if nothing more.
Go learn from China, they already has experience to treat disease!
@James Ricker Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer , Nadler and many more morons
Your right I hope he gets the Coronavirus bye bye trumputin
“like a miracle”. Lol FFS.
We will see what happens – D J Trump on Coronavirus
Pencedemic coming up, so start praying 🙏
how that working on mass shootings?
@gary the great …yeah….look! Those shiny lamps..
But seriously, the sarcasm flew right over your head
Nothing Fails Like Prayer and Donald Trump
More money is being spent on building the wall then protection from the virus.Republican priorities.
DM Tea Don’t you think the virus would spread much more easily if our border is not secure?
@Rod you mean like, if the wall didn’t fall in a breeze. Or if you couldn’t slip thru it, or scale it, or see thru it or saw thru it. Probably not.
I really miss having educated, competent officials in charge
Half the USA disagree. Not the educated competent ones.
YA WHEN THEY AREN’T BRAIN DEAD HEHEHE
In 2018, Trump eliminated a position on the National Security Council tasked with coordinating a global pandemic response. The CDC that same year also axed 80% of its efforts combating disease outbreaks overseas because its funds were depleted.
In its latest budget proposal, the Trump administration sought to cut CDC funding by 16% — even as Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar seeks emergency spending from lawmakers to combat the coronavirus. The Trump administration has also severely cut the CDC budget each of the last three years.
@imiss toronto
I noticed how the fat coward slid behind his sleazy offsider. The USA is the laughing stock of the world.
He’s an A-hole. He eliminated the CDC because he and Putin had a sinister biochemical warfare to engineer from Country-to-Country. I Bet Putin’s Maf Scientist and engineers prepared an antodote.
@Genevieve Words
The sheer incompetence is staggering. You are lucky this is a viral pandemic and not a military attack or you would be finished.
The world is now getting sick of the garbage coming out of the USA, are you having a mass mental breakdown over there??
The Republican (scum) Senate is responsible for this nightmare. VOTE BLUE
Marshall Cunningham Voting blue gives us open borders, sanctuary cities and 💩 in the streets. (which leads to more disease)
I’ll take a hard pass on that!
Everything Trump has done, like firing CDC personnel, has been enabled by the Republican Senators. Remember that in November!
Saving $ to defect the huge FINANCIAL benefits to the TRUMP CARTE, remember the total 9 extraTrump family overseas to England NOT INVITED so they were turned away and went to Trump’s failing GOLF RESORT in Scotland a deal costing American taxpayers MILLIONS every day with security paying double rates and therefore had NO money left for food. .
@Dawn-Marie Langlois Trump derangement sydrome, the DNC and media is trying to weaponize an infectous disease for political gain.
Disgusting and unsettled.
@James K. Boyle Reposting the exact same thing? Stay in your troll farm, Petro.
@TJ Abston link, please
strong https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-anthony-fauci-trump-admini-stops-discussion-2020-2
remember Arbidol will be used in China to treat/prevent coronavirus!
Everything Trump or his staff has done has been irresponsible, chaotic, ill-advised, inefficient, grossly incompetent.
Wade Stanton : Yes, entirely accurate. That’s what worries me.
doggiesarus : and it didn’t start with the epidemics (lack of) response… They’ve been at it since 3 years.
And deadly
@James K. Boyle Meanwhile, in reality, the Right-wing has used nothing but weaponized fear to drive it’s base.
…and ppl will die ..n its gona b on their hands sadly
Typical of an inept administration incompetent at best.
Well said Ron!
#BernieSanders2020
Medicare for all Americans
Because we’re gonna need it!
If this is not a case for universal health care then I don’t know what is. Your beloved “private”, bottom-line oriented insurance companies will not protect you from those millions UNDER INSURED and UNINSURED who cannot afford to get tested and walk/work among you with their undetected infections.
Can we just borrow Obama back for a min, plz? Just to hash all this out. We need an adult
Let’s go out on the streets and let’s ask for Obama’s help.Wonder how that will look when millions are heading for the WH to complain.
