President Trump Contradicts Health Officials on Coronavirus Response | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC
This President has NO CREDIBILITY, PERIOD !!
@Martin no not gonna leave we gonna take this one over😁
The pajama people speak…and say nothing. Frank Zappa was right, the most abundant thing in the universe it stupidity. And here it is in full display.
Zeno of Citium Love my 401k.. made $30,000. Since December.
@Jeremy Backup “I’m the best liar of all the presidents! No one has lied bigger than I have. And everyone believes me. ” That’s what he says the man who stares back at him every morning.
He is really going bananas, isn’t he?
Shin please for God’s sake keep trump’s father out of it.
Shin – “going”?? Looks like he’s been bananas for a good while.
Always has been
He’s begone somewhere, out there? The world may never know. But I know one thing, President Trump has to go. No it’s and about it!
“The outstanding negative quality of the totalitarian elite is that it never stops to think about the world as it really is and never compares the lies with reality.”

@Dee Lee No party is for the destruction of the country more than Democrats. They literally want to make it Venezuela 2.0.
@9000ck to me 12 to 18 months is soon. But time does go by faster when you have a job. Get one and find out.
Dee Lee All Republican congressmen need to be prosecuted for racketeering under the RICO Act.
Witnessing them boasting on TV how they had zero intention of being fair and impartial jurors – including the Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell, and then taking an Oath not to do so, and immediately violating it, is reprehensible and completely unforgivable.
Trump needs a reality check. This is not the apprentice. He’s fired. He should he. He’s so unprofessional. And the cult following. I can’t say anything positive about them. I understand u want to follow ur party but lying and deceit and spinning the real truth is unreal. We will all pay for this u Republicans. Trump has y’all by the balls. He is not to be trusted. He only thinks about Trump. When he gets wat uhh e wants u Trump followers will no longer be needed. Think about the future.
Contradicting facts with bold faced lies. Sadly, no surprise here.
If MSNBC were a cult, I have every confidence that you would drink the Kool-Aid…
“Once again raising questions about this president’s credibility”
Nearly everything Trump does and says, raises questions about his credibility.
@Galadriel Of The Wood Yes, he is the only president who has ever mislead. Sounds logical.
It’s at least seventy percent.
He repeats lies in front of the cameras so much it just seems everything he says is total b.s. He is not a credible source of information.
@Power corrupts You’re believe mainstream news. You are showing your intelligence now.
Suzy Q
You’re just a propagandist

t’rump: “I will protect America.”
“t’rump’s very large abrain: “Not so fast you big dummy…”
😅😅😅
@Annnora C because most of them aren’t educated and don’t understand the English language and/or read. They also don’t work on self development as adults. It’s very sad isn’t it? I would find it funny but I’m not ignorant like some.
@Patti Fearon when Bernie gets it he’ll croak for sure…. Thank God
@Onswa Brown I wished and made the enemy dead when I was in Iraq. Radical left-wing Democrats are the enemy of this country.
@Dawn-Marie Langlois you’re being presumptuous Dumbo… I’m not a in a bunker ….I am however far better prepared than you are.
@Dave S Dave… you’re hallucinating again.
He has dropped the CDC and then welcomes the problems. Russia chose well for their plan for sure.
Maximal ROI for Putin.
Your hero Mueller already shoved that Russian thing up your backsides.
But, you gotta have SOMETHING to cling to.
By the time the vaccine is ready, trump will be out of office.
@Iron Bar Republicans cant win WH head to head. They know it, why dont you?
@Iron BarIMPOTUS Trump 20 for obstruction 20 for abuse of power! Impeached Trump will never get out of prison
Let us all hope and Pray that, that Moron is gone by the then
Could be we just witnessed the fastest time from a Trump lie to the truth.
He opened his mouth? he lied, it’s on autopilot.
Trump:”No need to worry folks. I’m putting Mike Pence in charge of dealing with this Corolla-virus.”
LATE BREAKING NEWS: Pence has just discovered a vaccine for the coronavirus. It’s called thoughts and prayers.
WOW, I’M LMAO MAGATS..WTG, DAVID J. AND I AM STILL LMAO 👻😜😁😁😇🐧🐧💀😃
He thinks the virus is spread by a small Japanese car?
Is This When They Said : “Peace and Safety”
Semper verum
Why not. He thinks that windmills cause cancer. 😄
Thats too funny!
Pence will just look at this in a biblical way, and say this is God’s way of getting rid of sinners!
Ironically the most vulnerable people to the Coronavirus are elderly men, the largest Republican voter demographic.
How is he going to explain that?
@S jones Let’s not share our thoughts on medieval backward Bible thumping. 🙄
@Pink Freud I have been a non Christian and now a practicing christian and I will tell you I have a peace in my spirit that unless you experience it you will never understand…
@James Ricker we can only hope
The world according to dump, has absolutely nothing to do with the world we actually live in.
Did anyone else notice that the circles around Trump’s eyes matched his pink tie??
What world is that, Jerry? Free stuff, video games, weed, and hate?
He started the first day of his term lying about the observable weather and crowd sizes. At this point I truly hope his cult takes him literally and is decimated by coronavirus. Too effing stupid to participate in our society.
@Ed G your right, they’ve tired everything against Trump, zero results, just more broken hearts, and the taxes things, its old, Russia Russia Russia, taxes taxes, impeach impeach, racist racist, hilarious, what’s next you crybabies, ill tell you what’s next, Trump 2020
Don’t all cult members follow their leader to death, even their innocent children. It sums it up.
Wishing a serious illness on people you disagree with? Classy.
@GodBlessUSA Dems are doing that as we speak, because they think it hurts Trump, isn’t hurting him at all, Trump is moving forward, and his supporters, WOW more and more everyday, are moving forward. See the Dems are a party of gloom and doom, telling folks you can’t make it unless the government helps you, so hilarious, Wake up, don’t be so weak. Trump 2020
@GodBlessUSA was not wishing a serious illness on anyone. The point is THAT IS A PANDEMIC (VERY SERIOUS) BUT TRUMP NOT TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. AND DO THE RESEARCH AND LISTEN TO THE CDC. ALSO YOUTUBE SENATE ON QUESTIONING OF HOW THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND WHO HE PUT IN CHARGE HAD NO ANSWERS. AND HOW PENCE ALSO DOES NOT HAVE THE MEDCAL EXPERIENCE,!AND HOW THE CDC BUDGET WAS SLASHED AND THE TOP EXPERIENCED HEALTH OFFICIALS WERE WARNING TRUMP AND ADMINISTATION. 1 RESULT WAS STOCK MARKETS PLUMMETING BECAUSE OF NO CONFIDENCE IN ADMINISTRATION. THIS IS WHAT I MEANT, IF YOU DON’T DO RESEARCH AND LISTEN TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES SORRY BUT I HAVE TO COMPARE THE PEOPLE WHO BLINDLY FOLLOW THE LIES AND CONTRARY INFORMATUON INSTEAD OF OUR CDC AGENCY(CDC IS THE CENTER OF DISEASE CONTROL) INFORMING OF EBOLA, ASIAN FLU, HIV, AND OTHER THREATS TO HEALTH. NOT PART OF ANY POLITICAL PARTY WITH THE ONLY AGENDA IS FOR THE ANERICAN PEOPLE AND INFORMING THEM OF OF HOW TO BEST PROTECT THEMSELVES, FAMILIES, COMMUNITIES, COUNTRY AND ADVISE WORKD. THEY ALSO SEEK VACCINES FOR THESE THREATS. CULT MEMBERS FOLLOW THEIR LEADERS WHICH CAN RESULT IN DEATH.,IN CASE OF TRUMP ITS NOT GIVING AMERICANS ALL THE FACTS. LEARN FACTS, THEN WATCH AND READ WHAT HE SAYS. WHICH I HOPE BECAUSE I DON’T WISH DEATH ON ANYONE, BUT IF ANYONE CHOOSES NOT TO BECOME INFORMED AS PANDEMIC SPREADS, A PERSONS IGNORANCE CAN CAUSE THEIR OWN DEATH AND DEATH OF MANY MORE BY THAT PERSONS IGNORANCE.
Congrats having a healthcare system where people don’t even go the doctor because of co-pays, no paid sickness leave and being afraid of being laid off. Great conditions to contain the virus!
USA, baby!
You stupid stupid moron…..you must have just stated working. People were complaining about huge copays, HUMUNGOUS premiums and deductibles BECAUSE of Obamacare. The healthcare system you speak of was created wayyyy before President Trump took office
ursula mittmann God…how original pajama boy!
JAY HUITING True, but who created this system? Do you know it’s older than three and a half years…do you know anything??
The Liar doing what he does best. He’s not worried about us, he’s worried about the stock market.
@Rene Curry what about the well educate and middle class Republican still dont see it the problem is coming in? Even the whole world see it. Hope god will visit US to save the people.
@Rick Keeton I agree but it’s not going to happen they blindly follow him
@Rene Curry I agree 100%
@Annie those fools would go anyway even if they were told they were going to get the virus
Scientist: “1 year”. ……Trump: ” very soon”
Trump: “You’re fired.”
so whats PENCE going to do ?? PRAY THE VIRUS AWAY ???
@claire bigelow He will personally push the virus of the edge of our flat world.
@bob smith He’ll probably be able to push it off, since the ice walls should be melted by now.
@bob smith while Pence “prays it away ” smh
Based on the administrations track record, we’re on our own, folks!
Lol
Most of which may hit the Trump base even harder should a pandemic come to pass.
@Jeff Webb at his Rambling Rally event!! People–Stay home, avoid Crowds, wear a mask For those that don’t know–you can buy them at a pharmacy and online) WASH your hands–first line of defense.
I think I will have to agree!😵😵😵
I will never trust a SINGLE word from this administration… EVER
@Just Me And even the economy is not that great. Only the equity markets are doing well. A lot of sectors are recession, even the manufacturing sector.
sun dial you are a board certified nut case
@covfefe
St Johns Hopkins is a College in Zimbabwe , Africa 😉
@dan112020
Trump has put far more stronger sanctions on Russia than Obanana
@sun dial Get out the sun!🤔
Not the time for partisanship, aren’t they the ones blaming everything on the Democrats
EXCUSE ME, EXCUSE ME. Here we go again. QUIET 🤫! Nobody knows about CORONAVIRUS better than the Impeached for Life Donald Trump. Nobody. Believe me, it’s true. That, I can tell you. People don’t realize this. Not many people know this. So true. You better believe it. And it’s a good thing, not a bad thing. QUIET 🤫! I don’t know Lev Parnas. We’ll see what happens.
@Espen Pettersen Exactly. I say clean them out. pResident’s Day sale, everything must go.
@Leo They don’t have to connect the dots all they have to do is say it.
@Dave S trump has a litany of doctors as well as ey’l stocked multi month stocked survival emergency bunkers so he doesn’t care. All he’s worried about is his money and not being blamed for anything (thus passing the responsibility buck to pence)
GET this president out of the white house NOW.
Agree!!
Also, all Republican congressmen need to be prosecuted for racketeering under the RICO Act.
Witnessing them boasting on TV how they had zero intention of being fair and impartial jurors – including the Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell, and then taking an Oath not to do so, and immediately violating it, is reprehensible and completely unforgivable.
Efrain Ramirez Right
I wouldn’t call that orange 🍊 a president, it’s a little wannabe Dictator, would say, get that moron out of the White House
