The Gap Between Trump's Remarks On Economy And What's In Plan | Morning Joe | MSNBC
He’s drowning and doesn’t know which way is up. Complete incompetence from the bankruptcy king.
His head has always been under water.
@Wypipo Trippin put Timon and Pumba in charge. They”ll have a better plan for sure
@Wypipo Trippin vote Trump OUT IN NOVEMBER!!!!
@Wypipo Trippin it’s the only way you can get an understanding of WHAT IS HAPPENING…….DO YOU UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING???? OOPS YOUR A TRUMP SUPPORTER SO…….NOPE!!!
@Don Greenlee You may not like Trump, but he is far better than the alternative. Who do you propose will win the democrat nomination? If you support any of who they propose, you’re a complete fool.
Blamed China, Wuhan, WHO, Obama, Clinton, Gates, media, New York, the empty shelves, Easter bunny, tooth fairy, and coming soon, santa !
#DONTBEADICK2020
@Blitz world To be even fairer, Trump early on was saying how powerful Xi was, and how great their relationship was.
He is the _Teflon Don_
The orange sociopath knows no shame.
The second wave will level these protesters in the tens of thousands. Just in time for the election. Trump will blame the Democratic governor’s, even though it is him that is encouraging an early opening of some States. I watched the film ” THE OMEN ” recently, the similarities to the rise of Trump and what he is doing now is the spookiest thing about it!!
Don’t forget about the “deep state”……
When was the last time you saw mass graves being dug because of car crashes?
or you took the chance of dying from a hand shake or a hug….
@Angela Siegfried wack! The sound of an actual chart showing that the number deaths from covid-19 are actually higher than any of the numbers you just mentioned.
Car crash deaths per YEAR in the usa: 36,560
Flu deaths in the USA per YEAR: 34,000
Number of deaths in the US from covid-19 from start (Jan 12 2020) to current (April 18 2020). That is less than 4 months FYI : 38,200
I guess the punch line is that you are a moron. Congrats I’ll get you a helmet so you don’t hurt yourself when you ride the short bus to school.
Dawn MidnightSun I think both of you are actually arguing the same point here and just misunderstood each other’s phrasing.
But not 600 crashes in one state. And in 50 states! That’s the point I’m making!
@Kumo Yes, and it was a pity that the ad-homs were so immediate.
The calendar needs to show when he golfed during this time.
@orphan 200 good point

cost so far$133,000,000
@Mindy McNamara But that dang impeachment got in the way of their actions….They don’t realize–…calendars?
@joels5150 Aaaand right there in the mix of it is him at a rally calling it a hoax–….Doesn’t get any better than that….
@Angela Siegfried most Americans know this. the ones that need to realize and listen to truth will not- THEY WILL CONTINUE TO BELIEVE THIS MAN OF NO MORALS OR BRAINS.
IT IS FAR OVER DUE TO HAVE HIM REMOVED- IT WOULD HELP THE USA
IF SO— WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT —– HE WILL NOT BE RE-ELECTED.
HE IS IMPEACHED – HE IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION- HE IS STILL
HELPING AND TALKING TO PUTIN .
AMERICANS DO NEED THIS NOW. WE ARE FRIGHTENED AND MANY ARE HUNGARY.
The dems are going to have to bail the USA out of another Rep mess again. Imagine that.
NEVER VOTE REPUGNICON AGAIN!
The Great Depression, the Great Recession and now trump’s pending catastrophe, possibly another Great Depression are all Republican messes. Basically all Republican Presidents and Republican Congresses have screwed our country and Democrats have always cleaned up the mess.
Morning Joe, YOU ASKED A SIMPLE QUESTION: WHAT IS GOING ON?
Answer; This is what happens when NO responsibility is taken and people are allowed to LIE without any CONSEQUENCES.
“Trump often interacts with his friends on TV”. Sounds like a 3yr.old watching cartoons!
2:22 Trump actually says: *_”IT WOULD BE SO EASY TO BE TRUTHFUL”_*
He has no clue what truthful actually means.
@Ken McHugh
@Ken McHugh factcheckers are fighting “Liar & Chief” lies! Like the Frontline heros are fighting the Pandemic!
@Painting Animals On Rocks heh – nope – truth to me isnt your truth – think about it – they are different –
@Eric Kearns That’s because YOU’RE a gullible fox lies believer.
@Painting Animals On Rocks I HATE FOX. WTF? READ – “Truth is an instance of quoting one or many of the facts while describing or discussing the subject. The difference between truth and fact is that fact is something that cannot be combated with reasoning, for it is logic itself. But truth is something which depends on a person’s perspective and experience.”
@Eric Kearns But lies aren’t truth. And some animals are not more equal than other animals.
How that guy is not being draggen out of the White House by an angry mob with flaming pitchforks is beyond me.
Guus Thijssen He is protected by republican shields 👹💩💩💩👎🏿
I feel the same way Guss! Boil him in oil!!!
“Reopening the economy” requires HEALTHY people.
Joe Hoang did you see some of the responses to my comment? I really feel sorry for our country. Smh.
inspire me I see these Trumpsters all over the net now. They even took over the comment section of some left wing channels I liked to watch. It’s all of Trump’s base and it’s scary if you think that we are living in the same country as these guys. I never would have pictured that many years back.
EXACTLY! The people ARE the economy. Without healthy workers, there IS NO ECONOMY. Somebody really needs to pound that into the empty space between the ears of the Disaster at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
@SMZ ZMS Reopen the economy and you will end up with millions off work sick and overwhelming the medical system .
@SMZ ZMS Reopening the economy without a plan and making more people sick and more people will die, then re-closing the economy to control the pandemic a 2nd time will be much worse…… EVERYONE SHOULD GET TESTED FIRST, improve tracing, find out who has it and who doesn’t, and only then can people go back to work, slowly and safely, until there is a vaccine. BUT STUPID PEOPLE WANT TO PROTEST, because they believe in the right wing media, funded by the wealthy and corrupt. Hey, newsflash, Trump doesn’t care about you. He only cares about November and becoming a 2nd term president.
This calendar shows this timeline in a powerful way. I would like to see the dates when the government agency and resources for managing a pandemic was decimated.
I was a preacher for 20 years. After years of witnessing, and trying to be heard amidst the ongoing blind faith, by evangelicals, in the biggest conman the world has ever seen, has taken its toll. I’m out. I don’t know who we are anymore.
“We inherited a broken system”… *three and a half years ago*
Plus it REALLY WASN’T BROKEN…….UNTIL TRUMP GOT A HOLD OF IT!!!!!
Correction, Trump fired the Pandemic response team in 2018.
I think he meant to say that they broke the system they inherited.
it wasnt broken it was dismantled
I get attacked by Trump voters and they say best president ever I don’t know what world they live in.
yep, Trump Jan 22 ” it’s just 15 cases, In 10 days time I think it will be well over a million.Keep safe.I have friends and family here in the UK working in hospitals and this thing is lethal. Trump has delusions of adequacy.
Observing that you’ve lost your “factory installed” testicles you had at birth, is NOT an “attack”….👈😒👎
in what universe is 34 thousand “down close to zero”?
DON THE CON WAS PLAYING GOLF INSTEAD OF ADDRESSING THE PANDEMIC!
we didn’t inherit a broken system WE ELECTED IT
Gregory Johnson We created this. A hateful spiteful people gave Donald Trump his position. Now we get to sow what we reaped. The veiled hatred he spews daily now is grotesque. It’s gonna be ugly the day he leaves office. He is stoking his minions now. LIBERATE MINNESOTA ! Will be LIBERATE AMERICA! Either this November or November 2024. And it won’t be “peaceful”.
“It would have been so easy to be truthful.” This guy has never been truthful in his life. Vote Blue in November and stop the spread of lies.
It’s hilarious to hear Trump say: ” It would have been so easy to be truthful”.
yes he said it… because he knows he won’t be confronted on it nor challenged
We need to rename him “donald trout” for flip flopping so much.
