Senate Dems Call For Greater Action On Testing | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Time to get the, Tangerine Tyrant out of office permanently. Now!!!! 🍊🚫
On March 6, 2020 president Donald J. Trump announced to us, “Anybody who wants a test gets a test” (regarding COVID-19 infection testing). A lie then, it is still untrue today months later.
@Mark P You’re on the side that believes that the US shouldn’t have borders.
Nice try, globalist.
@mtronix
Hey, mtronix. It is YOU who sucks on your Mothers used tampons and Tampaxs.. Not Trumpsters.
The only good Democrats are the ones who are falling on the sidewalk spewing green slime out of their mouths. Kicking and Gagging from the Corovoirus..
@geheimschriver
And will in 2020. MAGA !!
@Admiral Crunch more assumptions. I voted for Trump specifically because he promised to stop the illegals with a wall. And it’s a beautiful wall.
Trump is a incompetent liar .
Trump is INCOMPETENT at EVERYTHING he does, EXCEPT Conning People. He is a Master at Conning gullible buffoons who think he is a God.
ITS OBVIOUS YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO YOUR DARK PLANET!
It’s time we accept the reality that Donald Trump has done nothing and will do nothing to deal with the COVID-19 crisis. He’s too busy tweeting at his enemies, watching TV, playing golf, stuffing his face with fast food, and scouring the internet for mentions of his name to be bothered with doing his job.
At this rate the number of dead Americans will be almost as much as the total lost in WWII – by election time.
Is that OK with you?
Sue the Trump administration if they have cost the lives of one of your loved ones.
Class action lawsuit for criminal negligence.
The reason Trump does not want wide spread testing is because he is trying to hide how bad this really is . SAD
Not as sad that he has any real level of support. My parents are two. Fox Entertainment has them hooked.
actually, the more that get tested, the more we find out the mortality rate is in line with the common flu.
@Vivian Stimpson it was obama who went golfing. date and time of trump’s last golf outting, please? do you even know or do you just like to bash trump? unless you can come up with a date, guessin it’s the latter.
so sad you don’t love America. enjoy your hatred.
@Thomas Halecky too bad you didn’t follow their lead. guessing they’re as disappointed in you as you are of them.
Trump has played 2.6 times more golf than Obama in his first 2 years and 91 days and has cost the tax payer an estimated $74 million more than Obama.
I understand that historically democrats are good for the economy, and republicans historically mess up the economy..
@CTM Would you be in the room?
@Michael Timely I asked you
@Lazaruz de Bonilla In 2021, once again, a Democratic President will have to come into office to clean up another economic mess left by a Republican. It happened in 2009 and it will happen in 2021.
@CTM STOP WITH THE STUPID!!! WE’VE GOT TOO MANY LOONS IN THIS COUNTRY, WITH TOO MANY GUNS!!! WE LEAD THE WORLD IN DEATHS FROM GUN VIOLENCE,, AND NOW CORONAVIRUS!!! THE REPUBLICANS DON’T CARE, AND KEEP PEDALING LIES, LIKE DEMOCRATS WILL TAKE THEIR GUNS AWAY,, OR DEMOCRATS LOVE ABORTIONS… ALL LIES MEANT TO DIVIDE OUR COUNTRY SO THEY CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE THE RICH RICHER AND EVERYBODY ELSE POORER!!!!
LOL! If freebies is what you classify a good economy then yes Democrats are better for the economy. Fact is Democrats are anti-capitalist and pro-socialist. That’s pretty obvious with what they do every time they get power.
The charlatans problem is that ” Alternative facts ” don’t work well when the death toll continues to rise.
An optimist thinks that this is the best possible world. A pessimist fears that this is true
@Gary M we are talking numbers here and your reading fortune cookies
MAGA . Make America Great Again .. VOTE in November . OUT with Trump and OUT with the RepubliCONS
MAGA Many Americans getting angry!
VOTE BLUE no matter WHO…. up and down the ticket…. VOTE BLUE ❣😷
Keep china screwing us, bad idea
@jnickrand And who is going to vote for Trump..? Show us some numbers. Got any..?
@jnickrand oh good lord. Trump will throw you under the bus, too. He is mentally ill and he is not able to lead.
First step to prevent people from dying is to remove Lysol trump ASAP. Don’t wait for November. Get him out now!
@Dorothy Abdul , Why dont you provide evidence. You cant because you’re dumb.
@Dave Schultz 😇😁👈
Dave Schultz what do you think disinfectants are ??
@Dave Schultz It’s one of many jokes normal people enjoy making at aholes like you.
@Dave Schultz daft MAGAt
There are lots of names for it but here are a couple , Whitewash & Coverup
Here we go again with the con man blocking evidence
Trump cannot be bothered with testing, it is too difficult he says… they are a small bunch of zealots holed up in the WH only listening to themselves.
Why do you ant the Government to “test” you? Are you a Slave?
@TheTruthIsRacist: did you, just get off the short bus;
He doesn’t want testing for the same reason he doesn’t want that Cruise ship to dock. He doesn’t want the numbers to go up
That is right…..and he is a tragedy to the American people…he is evil!
@Scribe Line You use your brain.
@Scribe Line shut up.
@Scribe Line You mention statistics, you should take a look yourself. This virus is much more deadlier than .05%. You are still running off of old lies. It MAY be that low for the 0-9 year old group, but maybe look at all the information. I admit it’s probably easier for you to just repeating what you heard.
Jamalynn Paris He hopes he’ll be reelected before it hit’s the roof.
The more tests completed means a lesser chance of trumpf getting re-elected.
“The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.” ― Albert Einstein
@CTM Oh, please give me 8 shot & 6 shot cartridges as I’m pretty good taking the local partridge & pheasant. Why do you ask?
Except Trump and the his cult are pretty evil.
@CTM No, you can’t spend unlimited ammunition shooting at a virus you moron. It’s far too tiny for the pellets to hit it. Maybe a flamethrower would work better for you even if it does has a more limited range.
Thank you. Great point. So lash out at Schummers spin and propaganda and fight that evil pathological liar trying to pass off rhetoric as facts.
@Vigilence yes those of us who believe in the Constitution the Bill of Rights and have pride in our country are evil and those of you who want to destroy the Constitution and trample on the Bill of Rights and wish to transform the greatest country on earth into some tired and failed socialist / communist disaster are the good people. I understand now. Thanks.
Trump does not want the public to know just how bad the numbers are so no testing
@Gary M Calls someone illiterate… uses the phrase ‘Your way out of your league’
Profound cognitive dissonance…
@Tim If you’re waiting for me to give a sh*t, you better pack a lunch. It’s going to be while…Do yourself a favor and ignore anyone who tells you to be yourself. Bad idea in your case.
Exactly!!!!!
@Gary M Leadership: Whatever happens, you’re responsible. If it doesn’t happen, you’re responsible. – Donald J. Trump, November 8, 2013
“I don’t take responsibility at all.” – Donald J. Trump, March 13, 2020
@Jeanne 54 So you test every American man, women and child. We find that 100 million is infected. Does this testing stop the pandemic? NO The next day everyone takes the same test again and it’s now 150 million infected. Name one country in this world whose tested 100% of their population. NONE!
Trump is a f****** mad man! They love nothing but money and don’t care about people just how much money they can steal. They’re evil!
This is why Trump was impeached. GOP Senate owns the Whitehouse’s incompetent handing of the pandemic by not removing Trump. When Biden is swore in, his first executive action must be to arrest and execute Trump for all the American lives that he took. Trump has always been a criminal and now he is a mass murderer.
George Carlan said they belong to a club and you’re not in it. Watch him pull an Obama on “not looking backwards but instead looking forward” and giving these grotesque criminals a pass. But there is a higher universal law many term karma that causes bad deeds to catch up with their illustrious authors.
I agree
Mike Pence said he gets tested all the time. And everyone around him gets a test. If it is good enough for him, then the rest of us should have it to. They expect us to risk our lives, but they just walk around in life without a worry about getting sick.
Yeah how??? Maybe that’s something all of us should be giving some thought to…. sinister!
It almost makes one believe they’ve already been given the anti-virus…🤔🤔🤔
