Trump once said he hoped COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. would remain under 60,000. But as the death toll nears 65,000, he has revised that number up as his administration's response continues to be scrutinized. Aired on 05/01/2020.

Trump Says U.S. Coronavirus Deaths Will 'Hopefully' Stay Under 100,000 | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
I truly fear for the mental state of this country… it’s beyond sad
@Elsa B Yes please dont bother with me anymore, please dont engage in arguments with mere mortals like us, your masters at the young tards have clearly told you to ignore anything else that you hear by people that are not the young tards.
@DesertStateInEu lets Both do an IQ test u moron.
@Jeroen van Uum And youre still replying, and still ignoring the main reply to your nonsense. This was like your 5th second chance to prove youre not mentally defective, and you failed again. We’re done here.
@AGE RANGER how did we get here😫..how is Biden gonna win? .. The Democrats keep messing this up
Social media has created a dangerous breed of moronic truthers & Trump is their leader ..How the F*k did we get here?
“Hopefully under 100,000” sounds like a great campaign slogan.
@Dulcie Gray really tou say this CORONAVIRUS virus was going on last hrs before dec.2019 Nancy Pelosi saying. If the Democrats say the president knew that means the Democrats also knew. If they are so concerned now. Instead of assisting time on a which hunt on impeachment.
@Maurice D or just 24 of its billionaires who now own more than half the people on the planet. Billionaire butt kissing is so cringey!!
better than Joe’s slogan…..”crickets”
@jeffrey martino I am not interested in party politics.
OK tell that to the families who’s love ones have died from this virus and people in hospital fighting for their life.
When we have people like the ones in Florida and Huntington Beach. LMAOOO nah it will prolly exceed 100k
@Camille Comtois My sincerest condolences.
@Camille Comtois
Did you see the results yourself or a family member see it for their self or is that just what the doctor told you?
@tony gather my mother was given these results then to me. These questions are making me unnerved
@Camille Comtois
I don’t mean to make you feel that way. I just wanted to know the details. Because I do have proof CDC gave out memos to doctors and it’s on their website that doctors can say it was coranavirus related death even if a test wasn’t done. So that’s the reasoning of the detail questions. I can show you the evidence if you like.
PK Cazadores By *your spelling, not you’re.
Key words here people:
“HOPEFULLY”
“NEXT YEAR”
@jeniel cross Every single death resulting from Trump’s negligence and dare i say it unforgivable actions & inactions rests squarely on his shoulders and no amount of finger pointing will ever chamge that.HE ( TRUMP) HAS GOT TO BE REMOVED FOR THE SAFETY AND THE HEALTH OF THIS COUNTRY BEFORE EVEN MORE INNOCENT LIVES ARE CUT SHORT.
@Native NYGirl Trump supporters don’t care about anything or anyone until they personally feel the impact.They deserve 0 sympathy since they can’t show the same for anyone else.
@Unknown Soldier Excuses, and more lame excuses for Trump.It is his responsibility as so called commander in chief to be prepared just in case a situation like the Corona Virus happens.But he didn’t do that , instead he downplayed and denied its existence, then disassembled the pandemic response team # cut funding to the CDC.After that he proceeds to blame Obama and call it a Democratic hoax.Bottom line here is had this national disgrace of a president took his job more seriously instead of insulting and demeaning people constantly then this unfortunate situation could have been contained.The buck stops with Trump and he alone.
Martin Johnston to late we got murder hornet on there why right now let’s send Joe biden over there
Donald Trump supporters LOL! I had enough of these nightmares!!
The way we are going, we’ll blow past 100,000 before the end of May.
We went up 20k in like 2 weeks. We will surpass 100k deaths very soon…
@Chuck Koehler On 04/19/2020 they were projecting only 60,000 dead by August. That IHME should be renamed the summer miracle model. Mike Jesus Pence believes in it so does most of the task force.
@kittensplayingathome well, internal Trump health officials are projecting now as high as 200,000 new cases a day and 3,000 deaths per day by June 1st as we re-open parts of the country.
@Chuck Koehler Now look at the IHME summer miracle model, 134k deaths now projected https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america
@kittensplayingathome Yes, I heard about it on CNN today. and I also look at worldometer’s data as well.
Stay home! Demand your government work for you not the other way around
Once the government works for you enough, it starts to work you. Nothing is free some day if you do get ahead you’ll see no one benefits from communism with us involved people break rules. You think after you are given support long enough no one will ask what you’re doing with it? And if you abuse your support by taking to much you don’t think you’ll be fined for some form a fraud?
@Korean Mapping those who give up freedom for security will lose both. How many small governments have have had to be dismantled in history or overthrown? Big governments are the ones that the people have to take power back from not small governments.
@OzarkoBlam what kind crack did you smoke to come up with this kind of comment?
@Elson yu It is truly sad how poorly educated some of you folks are that you can’t even see a couple steps ahead. You can’t even think critically enough to entertain the idea that figures of authority lie on a massive scale. You can’t even see why those in power would want as many people beholden to them as possible. We truly will get what we deserve as a species. That’s for sure.
Your going to be given this virus, like it or not! That is why no testing!
History tells us that everything that this disinfectant President predicted were all wrong and lies.
It isnt possible to effectively debate w someone about the contents of an article when they willfully choose not to read it…. willful ignorance allows them to avoid facing uncomfortable conclusions and avoid cognitive dissonance… https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-nsc-idUSKBN21N0EJ
@Everblue Freediving Your wrote, rump and a GOP majority gutted and defended epidemic programs at CDC, HHS, NSC, and Dept of State… You do know that’s Fake News right?
https://www.factcheck.org/2020/03/democrats-misleading-coronavirus-claims/
As for Trump’s failure, what happened to that 2.5 million Americans will die from the Wuhan Flu?
@Saltponds239 still didnt read the article yet you try to debate its contents. Took me about 8sec to find the billion dollar cut between 2017 and 2018. Heres a comparative, line item balance sheet https://www.hhs.gov/about/budget/fy2018/budget-in-brief/cdc/index.html#overview
its public record that those programs were cut including the 30million State Dept budget for international epidemic coordination that Hillary set up…. CDC budget cut forced them to reduce their monitoring program including China… HHS, NSC both took hits as well …
@Everblue Freediving Still haven’t read what I sent you have you? I’ll keep it simple so perhaps you can grasp it.
Was a Budget ever passed? No. So why hasn’t Nancy and the DemoRATs passed a Budget? And for the ignorant (YOU), if a budget isn’t passed by Congress, the old Budget and spending STAYS in place!!!!!
Ever hear of the term, continuing resolution? GOT IT? So, there were ZERO CUTS, ZERO. It was in the article I sent you but you did NOT read it !!!!!!!!
You wrote, 30million State Dept budget for international epidemic coordination that Hillary set up….
That was a awesome statement. So lets look at what the “career” Politicians got for her 30 million? SARS? Swine Flu? Ebola?
Or, how about the millions we gave to China for their lab in Wuhan (OOOps). Or, the 400 million bucks to the W.H.O.? OOOpsy.
All good investments made by “career” Politicians right?
@Saltponds239 you didnt provide a link or source… yes, the 2018 budget was approved by a GOP majority in Congress, I just sent you the line item showing the cuts… and, if the President is telling everyone there is no problem, its totally under control, while ignoring everyone for 3 months, why would a travel ban look anything but rascist? You dont suppose Trump was keeping info from his opposition, do you?
Trump wants to ‘liberate’ America, so we’re definitely hitting 100k deaths lol.
That would mean we’re only at .0003 Deaths
This is fascinating, thanks for sharing!… Pls check out my article too! > THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ECB AND THE FED IN CRISIS MANAGEMENT >>> https://2ly.link/5rTT
It will go higher then that if never been in one
He wants to Liberate the Social Security money.
Can’t get social if you Death.
brsk Thats not quite true. The whole point of flattening the curve is so that everyone can get the medical intervention they need. The death rate is much lower when the hospitals are not overrun and all the critical cases can be put on a ventilator.
Everyone upset about reopening and my state hasnt closed yet.
@matt olsen and seeing as though they dont want to test everybody it’s the governments fault
Dangerous_stranger don’t worry I’ll be there 🙏🏽
@matt olsen Now you’re implying I’m not allowed to state my opinion. You sound like a real expert on the Constitution all right.
Bet you got some asymptomatic zombies then!
Youtubeisbroken https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.marketwatch.com/amp/story/guid/CD247FC2-75BF-11EA-8BD5-378253C2B750
There you go
But I thought he said there may be ZERO deaths?
Zero deaths, under control, nothing to worry about, come on, that was all sarcasm.
David S trying to blame Fauci but president bone spurs was warned of this in January and then he went golfing
@David S We both know Trump made him say that,lol
Every now and then s different story
That’s the way to create confusion and chaos
@Haris Nandwani if they wanted you scared, they would scare you. They are doing damage control. If they wanted you scared they could tell everyone to panic and that the deaths were even higher but only some news outlets are telling you to panic not all.
Hey protesters get back to work, the meat processing plants need workers.
Trump and Pence won’t walk through Tyson Meat factory with no mask!
“We’re gonna have huge numbers, big numbers, the best numbers. Numbers so big itll make your head spin” “Wait, what were we taking about again”

@Jaymoe21172 and that’s off a news site your subscribed to their youtube.
@David S You people are delusional and you want to speak about the truth? You believe everyone is lying and only trump is telling the truth. Stupid.

@Arthur Johnston Because COVID has been shown to cause blood clotting anomalies… this stuff isn’t hard to figure out. If she died of an unusual blod clot while infected with COVID, odds are very very high it was directly due to COVID.
In my city some protestors left bc some dudes where walking around coughing around them and they got scared and just took off.
Those dudes did it on purpose.
@Shabby Balls They aren’t brave at all, just loud mouth. If they are brave, take an seesential job, serve in a mall (one of my friends got hired without an interview) or volunter to work as a hospital labor/helper. Basically they want others to go to work and risk their health and lives so they can get a haircut and do their nails.
The paid protesters stayed. They get paid on the ride home…
Nice one lol
I want ppl to attend the protests and fake cough everywhere to scare people lol
I hate to break it to everyone, but they’re not gonna stay under 1,000,000 with how we’re handling it.
FUDDLEYP JONES he does look at the emplacement 😬just saying
@Kym Penetito emplacement?
FUDDLEYP JONES then the human race will slowly die.Stay safe and God Bless you😘❤️🙏🙏🙏
Bridger Hanks
10% chance of death with overwhelmed hospitals.
@Kym Penetito
Human race is dying from everything all the time. This is just another challenge with a fallen world.
Please stay safe yourself and blessings to you and yours.
The US is a broke boy wearing a Gucci belt.
Rob Turner I don’t think they’d fit in the seats to be quite honest. Therefore they can’t travel overseas. Fat and ignorant, worst combo out there
COW TITTY 👏
So true. We are a superpower on viagra!!
@tonyo5 not just my country.America. i pray u dont live in Italy. Bless u friend
Because of the President of the next President is good America will be better
Once April comes it’ll be like a miracle it’ll be gone it’ll just go away! (April 2021 that is)
it = April, it’s gone
Come on man. He was obviously talking about NEXT April
You have to do that wavy thing with your hands or it wont work!
Lets hope that in November he goes away and this nightmare presidency is over
Difficult to negotiate with a virus…..
@I wilfix You should look more carefully. It’s very recognizable. It was painted with a tiny sharpie specially made to fit his hands just like his other “documents”.
Trumpsters tried to protest the virus as well.
I think he may succeed if he shoots the virus, American style!!
Oh yeah, probably just what he’ll do!
Probably just what he’ll do…….😄
Drumpf is the master of talking, but never making a point.
I dunno, I think Pence might be even more masterful, because Trump is dumb enough to accidentally let slip some truth sometimes. Pence is a true master of never giving a straight honest answer, but he sure can talk for a long time.
tremendous, beautiful, what do you have to lose, take it, you know what I have, everybody knows I am correct , I have seen it,the evidence but I am not allowed to say it !
he just likes the sound of his sown voice… that’s all.
is he better in talking though?..i know people outside US that has better understanding of english language
I guess in June he will say “200,000” is acceptable.
@wolfnipplechips well if the government keeps faking the deaths and labeling heart attacks as “corona virus deaths” then yeah we will be at 100,000. its all lies
@brsk just like NASA and flat earth!
depends on what you are comparing it to. The original models said there would be over 2 MILLION, so we are WAY below that!!!
@brsk Yup, I know for a fact they call people dead due from COVID related issues. The states that are broke are going to pad numbers to get the Feds to bail their broke butts out of debt.
@brsk Yea.. and Earth is flat
“Hopefully” tRump will be one of the deceased. No big deal according to bone spurs. “People die” his words.
