  1. this is not a second wave of virus it is a continuation of the first wave and the u.s.a. is still not handling the virus.

  2. I love how Rachel sounds consistently incredulous and disgusted every time she discusses this WACK administration. THANK YOU RACHEL for not losing the passion and telling it how it is 👍🙏

    1. @TONY Oh look. Another halfwit that can’t refute the reporting. Just feeble fanboy flailings. The stench of desperation and panic wafting off you folks is getting overpowering. All while your pathetic attempts get weaker and weaker.
      What’s next cupcake? An all caps ‘Nuh Uhh!’? Maybe some more ignoring of reality in a failing attempt to preserve your fairy tales and pretend you aren’t a mark that has been led by the nose and duped with your full cooperation and consent? Keep trying kid.

    2. @TONY Still can’t refute anything reported in this video can you fan boy? On top of that you have to make things up now like ‘Nancy is my hero’… She is almost, but not quite, as vile as your beloved Mango Man.
      You should realize that ignoring Spanky’s failures and using other people as some sort of defense for him is extremely weak. It proves you really don’t have any defense or justification and would prefer to maintain your willful ignorance because you’d rather just attack the ‘other team’ than take a good, hard, honest look at your own.
      Flail away cupcake. Flail away.

    3. @mr ady and mim yay Maybe you need to recover from all the Fool Ade you’ve been drinking, trumpanzee !!

  3. Trump cant even plan how to lift a glass of water,let alone Devise a National Testing strategy, Don”t expect a spoilt child,to do a Mans work.

    1. @Investigative Audit Joe Biden is a Jesuit … think Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe (genocide) … think Pope Francis and the Dirty War (genocide) … think Himmler the chicken farmer (genocide). Then think again.

    2. @Kepler Mission The most important is whom you are dealing with now. No need for imagination and assuming thing which may not be reality. Look at current situation:
      Federal Reserves are empty; unemployment is highest ever; COVID-19 got permanent residency in US; US is the most isolated country in the world and recent economic/political decisions by many of its allies are even against US; healthcare system is failed and behind even African countries; US global share in latest tech (5G) is ZERO; civil war is awaiting at the corner; And after all these, Trump is only worried about his reelection!

    3. @Kepler Mission And just to clarify, my reports are based on facts and no political party is smart enough to influence my reports. I use my own 24 years of forensic, law, audit and consultancy to identify the most popular propaganda and conspiracy theories and research about them.

    4. @Investigative Audit Yeah but … lies are based on facts too, just spun a little to fit the situation. Have a nice day and don’t forget to drink a cold beer at the end of a hard day’s work. Just a little reward to keep you bright-eyed and bushy tailed.

  4. trump doesn’t care he said u.s economy doing great he’s doing a great job making America great again he is not looking at covid19 numbers he is more interested in money numbers

    1. America’s ‘greatness’

      Getting a travel ban by European countries because we are too dangerous since we can’t get control of the virus like they all have

      Almost 130,000 Deaths from COVID-19
      (minimum, due to so little testing still)

      20 million still unemployed

      Riots, looting, lawlessness in many cities throughout the country for a month

      We are losing it, and people are so confused, no one even cares,
      nor sees the big picture any more that we are going downhill like an avalanche

      It is so sad because Early April we really cared about each other and were United to not let the virus win, to Save Lives

      Satan loves to Divide and Destroy

    2. in every address trump makes he always says he’s doing a great job (I’m not commenting he’s doing a great job)

    1. Instead of a competent Commander-in-Chief, we got us an unhinged Traitor-‘n-Thief. The question is, why is the U.S. tolerating it?
      *_REMOVE the RUSSIAN PAWN PLANTED in the OVAL OFFICE_** …. NOW!!!*

      Used to be our greatest national security threat was climate change. Now, it’s Toxic Trump! A clear and present danger to all, including himself, posing imminent threat!

    2. You’ve heard of stone-cold killers, but is seems Toxic Trump’s rally at Mt. Rushmore now makes him a stoned Covid killer?!? “Let’s celebrate the 4th-coming of Covid deaths to my supporters!”

  5. I’ve been hearing….,people are saying….trump is the most tremendous failure in history, a disaster…..SAD.

    1. @Scott Baxendale how do you deal with all of that? I think if my president (Bundeskanzlerin) Ms Merkel would be like him, i would be desperate. The part with the stupid countrymen sadly is not better here in germany, but the leader”thing” … omg. Anyway have a great holiday and weekend from Germany

  6. It is chump’s fault, he is simply incompetent. Chump is good at reality TV, but he isn’t good at doing anything real.

    1. Ace1000ks1975, you honestly thought that was a good show and he was good at it? He was not anywhere near good in my opinion, but each to their own opinion I guess. One interesting thing is have you ever noticed how Trump always gets someone else, anyone else to fire people in real life? He is too afraid to tell people they are fired to their faces. They might get angry at him if he did that. I remember he told his driver to tell someone in his administration (I think) that they were fired. He is such a child.

    2. @Linda P I saw a couple of episodes of chump’s Apprentice, but like all reality shows it is all fake.

    3. PRETTY CLEVER FOR A BETA MALE. “CHUMP”… CUTTING, HARD CORE, AND RIDICULOUSLY STUPID EVEN FOR A FOURTH GRADER.

  7. Reminds me of the testing that Flint, Michigan did for lead in people, and they lied about the test results.
    Those people have lead poisoning, and no one is held accountable!

    1. @riffle queen well vote him out then. Imagine you have a son or a daughter in the army and a bounty on them. Trump knew. YOUR PRESIDENT IS BRIEFED EVERY DAY. He knew but ignored it. I wonder what’s under his skin?

  8. The world is no longer laughing at Trump, we are now seriously worried about and for the nation.

    1. @Wendy’s Garden AT RISK? WHAT’S REALLY FUNNY IS THE DEMS ARE AT RISK TO BE ON THE LOSING END OF AN HISTORIC LANDSLIDE VICTORY FOR TRUMP IN 2020. LOLOLOL… AND GIVE UP PINING FOR RACHEL… HER HEART BELONGS TO ANOTHER THIRD WAVE POST MODERN LESBIAN FEMINIST!

    2. @Suzanne Langevin DID NOTHING? WE LAUNCHED THREE FAILED INVESTIGATIONS, WE INVENTED, OUT OF THIN AIR, A COUPLE OF HOAXES. WE HAVE REPEATEDLY TRIED TO PIN THE PHONY CORONA VIRUS ON HIM AND HE IS EVEN MORE POPULAR TODAY! WE MUST DO MORE TO END HIS PRESIDENCY, BUT IT LOOKS MORE AND MORE LIKE A HISTORIC LANDSLIDE VICTORY FOR HIM IN 2020!

    3. @Larry Sernyk and the world what? the world hopes americans “get it” before it’s too late. look at the u.s.a.; look at Canada – see the difference? an ex-officer tried to break into trudeau’s space yesterday, the police spent two hours talking him down, they did not even threaten to shoot him.

    1. you know the democrats are freaking out after maxwell got arrested, all their dirity secret will soon on full display

  9. What happened to “Everyone can get a test”? Just another fantasy of the Impeached Trump and his Administration.

    1. Just more of his lies. it went from “everyone can get a test” to “everyone doesn’t need to be tested’. “Test increase the numbers of Cases”…. Extreme Poor Leadership.

    2. @justsaying You just described, “The Art of Grooming”… which is what someone does to pervert the truth.

    1. @Robert Tuss – hey look – it’s ALL CAPS BOB the genius! And folks h hasn’t let us down he has crafted a real zinger today – hoo boy feel the burn, yes indeedy MISTER TUSS is definitely th leding source of trustworthy information and advice – why would anyone look elsewhere.
      HEY BOB get a life! Try thinking deeper than a puddle…

    1. I don’t believe Trump cares about anything but himself. Everything else has a price and he’s the type who’s willing to buy or sell anything.

  10. he has only had 2 plans in 4 years… election and reelection , this whole governing thing is not part of the plan

    1. @Padme yea, but being the grifter con man he is, he didn’t have to plan that one, it came as natural as breathing to him

    2. @wildcatter63 well no planning needed there, those come naturally with a narcissist con man, who thinks the last 243 years of america have been about him

    3. @The King Maker What is DISGUSTING is those who still dare to even consider themselves as “Americans” that are still buying the treason this conman and grifter has been selling.
      A minimum IQ of at least one’s shoe size should be immediately implemented as a requirement for citizenship in the country they are destroying

    4. @wildcatter63 I think many hear others call it a cult and dont realize, its not a joke, thats what we are dealing with, anyone who still supports the treasonous con man at this point are exactly who he said they were ” i can stand in the middle of 5th Avenue, shoot someone and I wouldn’t lose a follower,” thats not a political party to anyone except jim jones, Marshall applewhite, and david koresh

  11. A lot of Americans in the Southern states are realising that they are also in danger and the virus is coming their way and it’s not just a NYC thing. They’ve been lied to by their leaders and hopefully they’re starting to wake up.. And it’s coming very fast and it’ll leave no stone unturned to find a victim. Everybody is vulnerable..

  12. while other countries are improving, USA is moving from bad to dire to severe situations now…..
