Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.” Trump: “I didn’t know people died from the flu.”

The obsession continues...…..The Trump hating club should get together (after things calm down of course) have lunch, discuss all things Trump and then finish the day off waxing your balls....LOL
Technically he is right, people who get the flu die from secondary infections initiated by the virus, like Pneumonia or pre existing health conditions which exacerbates them.Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability.

What you don't seem to understand (which is hardly surprising), that his comments concern something that is NOT A CURRENT ONGOING crisis situation but a record of what has happened and how badly it was handled, which is fair game. This playing politics with a crisis is okay to look back on and judge results but WHILE the crisis is still developing, one should try to refrain from politicizing it. Can you dispute the history of what he is saying? This crisis needs to be solved first and then after the fact if you want to politicize it, fair enough.
This is absolutely true but speaking for myself only, I don't criticize unless I am versed enough in the subject I am criticizing......I served under Jocko Willink in 2008 and that was his policy. You had best criticize anything he did and actively participate in keeping yourself safe BUT you had best have your affairs in order because like you said.....ERRORS COST LIVES

Here is what you can take from it and again speaking for myself. I can only control what I do. Im not going to spend one minute of precious time worrying over something I don't have a damn bit of control over. Being a negative complainer during something like this makes you look like an ass (just my opinion). Negativity solves NOTHING. I have my affairs in order. Do you? If you do then that's great. I will survive the virus, the stock market, the politics of all of it so I am going to support the President in his efforts because its the smart thing to do not the emotional things to do. Maybe that explains it?So what I take from the Corona thread, the politics thread and even the stock market thread is that those leaning right are trying to downplay the total clusterf*ck of a situation we find ourselves in with testing this nasty virus. Apparently, to me, they realize this will reflect terribly on their 'dear leader'. It's to a point where they are now saying it doesn't matter if we test cause it wouldn't change anything. Even though all doctors and scientists disagree. POTUS is trying to blame former administrations for their screw-ups even though they fired then entire medical task force Obama installed during the Ebola outbreak. They had no one to coordinate efforts until this was on US soil even with months of advance notice it would likely reach us. The list of missteps over the last couple months is loooong.
The last few days have shown how much can get done when you throw the entire federal weight behind a problem. In a matter for days we are now getting drive thru testing. But for over a month the administration sat on their hands and acted like this wasn't going to be a big deal because it's an election year and they didn't want to crash the stock market (the most referenced accomplishment of this presidency). It wasn't until the walls were absolutely collapsing all around them did Pence get appointed Czar and they even began to have some honest dialect with the country. The lies and misrepresentations regarding virus are all documented.
Behind Trump's coronavirus shift
Administration officials, increasingly concerned about the president's messaging and response to the coronavirus, staged a West Wing intervention Monday.
Totally agree. All I have seen is you Nerman post negative about Trumps handling of this virus. So you can get the rise let me say this. Yes Trump has totally screwed this up. The whole govt has screwed this up. Which is what I was saying a couple weeks ago on here. Would you trust the govt to take care of you? Also don’t forget your beloved Democrats also screwed up. Trying to pass a bill that had abortion money thrown in with the Coronavirus bill. So it’s both sides!!!!!
Dems are politicizing too, it just doesn't get reported as much.... Biden and others still calling the travel bans xenophobic, attaching abortion funding to the coronavirus stimulus bill, it never ends.
This is correct.
