    1. @Tim Kozlowski Woodward wrote a book, period. This is not about Woodward, asshat…this is all Trump, his lies & his failures. Why didn’t the intelligence community or the medical experts speak out as well? Why didn’t Trump’s staff speak out? Why did all those experts stand up on the stage with Trump knowing he was LYING? Get a clue!

    2. If there was any justice at all the people would storm the White House and place Trump in jail.

      Hitlers actions led to millions of his own people to die, Trumps actions and words will lead to millions of his own people dying.

    1. @Mardi Taylor Nah! Trump been associated or linked to so much crime / corruption it not funny. He has not the intelligence like that of past presidents?

  1. Trump would stop at nothing to serve his personal interests. If that means an additional 50, 70 or 100k people die as a result, it is what it is. Keep that in mind when voting.

    1. @Larry Garland I get it. Curiosity killed the cat but, satisfaction brought it back! I had once tried Fox YT Channel to see just HOW bizarre the comment section was. It was like lifting the lid to a garbage can. It was wrought with stench and I dared not lower myself to join in with the trash! Why bother!? Most Online Trump “Supporters” are Foreign Trolls! Even Trump knows this! That is why he is desperately trying to spread his poison on more reputable News Stations and fails miserably, every. Single. Time!

    2. That’s so interesting…did Como do anything… he has 100 time more dead then anywhere else in the world .. do you think he is killing people for joe votes? … it’s weird
      By the way joe is not a racist ” you ain’t black” proves it … this popcorn is so buttery… I mean corn pop…

  2. t’rump doesn’t think Obama was a great speaker because t’rump was constantly confused by all the words Obama used that exist outside of his 200 word vocabulary. 😅😂🤣

  3. Every single person, who supports this *THING* after these revelations, regardless if they were family or friend, *is now an enemy of the United States Of America.*

    1. ms 3533
      Then You Are a complete MORON. Glad to know exactly how many imbeciles are openly announcing their brains stopped developing at 5. Like Dump

  4. *_“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”_* — Martin Luther King

    1. Remember when joe said ‘truth over facts” something about that is wrong… sounds like mlk? Or is Joe what mlk is worried about
      .. what is cognitive dissonance?

    2. @Blind C75 Joe thinks MLK is white milk and every child should get one although the schools will be closed until China owns us.

  5. Trump= “I didn’t want the American public to panic…”

    Also Trump=” The Democrats will burn all our cities; u won’t be safe in Biden’s America….”

    1. @ChannelSurfer 2020 I’m a white suburban housewife, and trumps goons scare me more than any minority ever could.

    2. And the Democrats want to abolish the second amendment. And he tweeted, if he’s removed from office (impeachment) it will cause a civil war. He’s vile.

    3. IKR He is a walking contradiction. A reporter needs to present that argument to McEnanay tomorrow. “Let me get this right Kayleigh; the president did not inform in details about a deadly pandemic hitting our shores, but he feels the need to go on TV every day and rant in great details about how protestors are coming to destroy the suburbs?”

    1. No put him in airfource one, fly to Afghanistan, give trump a chute, open door, push out! Let natives take care of rest!

  6. So trump could shoot someone on fifth avenue and get away with it instead of that he killed about 180,000+ and still counting.

    1. @ms 3533 “closed travel to and from China and declared an emergency. ”
      after China had already closed travel.
      fat lot of good it did.

      and he waited until midmarch to declare an emergency.
      when he knew it was a problem in December.

  7. “The last administration left us nothing,” Trump said last month.
    But the St. Louis Post-Dispatch found that Trump’s own budget documents show the opposite ― exposing what it called “a lie of colossal Trumpian proportions.”
    The newspaper’s editorial board said the Trump administration told Congress that the Obama administration left it with everything needed for a pandemic ― and sought big budget cuts from the programs as a result. 
    Trump’s 2020 budget asked Congress to cut the pandemic preparedness budget by $102.9 million, part of $595.5 million in requested cuts to public health preparedness and response outlay.
    “Obama left office with an unblemished record of building up the nation’s pandemic preparedness,” the newspaper said. “Trump systematically sought to dismantle it.” 
    Trump has since blamed his predecessor for lack of personal protective equipment and testing supplies, saying “our cupboards were bare. We had very little in our stockpile.”
    But the newspaper said a chart provided by the Trump administration with the budget shows that by 2016 ― Obama’s final year in office ― the nation’s public health emergency preparedness was at least 98% on every key measure.
    “That’s by the Trump administration’s own assessment,” the Post-Dispatch said. “If the cupboard was bare, it’s because Trump swept it clean.”

    1. @dennis camacho I am trying with some difficulty, not to say something insulting. I would imagine the St. Louis Post-Dispatch has a website, why don’t you start there.

    2. @GoT fan 2320 200,000 and counting! And that not including the deaths that right-wingers in red states intentionally mis-reporting!

    3. Now we have a word to replace Brobdingnagian, which is… Trumpian. My impression is that it will be included in the Oxford Dictionary early next year.

  8. Of course he knew. Just like he knew about MBS killing Koshoge, Putin putting bounty on American soldiers and any number of other things. Dude is a crook, surprise surprise 🤦‍♂️

  9. People who lost someone they love should be outraged by the knowledge that their loved ones could have still been alive.

    1. ❤️❤️ ❤️ preventive help with coronavirus. Speak quietly out loud or in normal voice “God, please make my health perfect and completely free from harmful virus. Thank you.” Repeat every 1-2 hours (8-16 times a day) as long as the pandemic lasts and until a safe vaccine or other cure is available. God is love. This helps. No cost. https://www.howtocallongodforhelp.com Healing can happen on different levels. We’re not just physical beings. Consciousness, thought, and prayer is not well understood. We all have a name. Yet science can’t identify our name by any chemical or physical markers through careful examination of the human body. Healing is both mind and body. “A problem exists today regarding some know how to call on God for help while others do not. This loving help is available to all of us regardless of moral character, religious views, and personal beliefs. God does not punish and helps anyone asking correctly. God is love.” Follow CDC guidelines https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html and Dr. Fauci’s recommendations. Social distancing helps prevent infected droplets, splatter, and aerosol particles from entering the lungs. Reducing viral concentration will give the body better odds at handling infection. First line workers are at high risk because of continuous exposure to the virus, thus greater susceptibility to Covid19. “While fever, cough and shortness of breath have characterized the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated its list of common symptoms in late April to include a new loss of smell or taste.” Look into foods high in Vitamin C (avoid harmful synthetic Vitamin C supplements), Vitamin D (20 minutes daily sunlight or supplement), and zinc. Please share. Thank you. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
