Some data on Covid-19 and why we're not over reacting...

Question for y’all: the president always and intentionally refers to CV as the China or Chines virus. Sure other people have already said it (and I missed it) but here’s my theory:

classic dog whistle to his ferverent base of voters. Blame the “other”. Used to be Mexicans and other Latin Americans. Then FBI and other Deep State actors. Throw in Hollywood liberals, US citizens of Middle eastern descent, European- centric “snowflakes”, African Americans, LGBTQ community, females writ large. All are enemies and obstacles to djt’s vision of a society that reflects his small minded and shallow world view.

So, now that a new virus overtakes our daily life all around the world, djt needs a new villain to fight so he can call his ardent supporters to action in November or he might loose his re election.

A Virus is not tangible enough of a villain to fight so he pulled out his dog whistle and with all his might is screaming to his supporters: it’s the Chinese!!
I’m no fool and I’m sure me expressing myself on this forum will get plenty of backlash, but that’s a right we all thankfully still have.

hope everyone’s staying healthy and able to keep earning a living through this.

That's exactly what Trump is doing and, sadly, his supporters are lapping it up. It's actually quite frightening to me how easily some are gaslighted to the point that they don't even believe their own eyes and ears.

What I don't understand is how those referring to the virus as the "Chinese Virus" can't see how stupid they look to the majority. They snicker amongst themselves, like 3rd grade boys name calling and high-fiving each other at their cleverness. Meanwhile the adults in the room look at them like the pathetic fools that they are.

Trump lost this. All leadership is coming from them individual states. He failed at providing national leadership at crunch time. He doesn't know what to say at all, so he's trying to place blame. And telling the states to find their own medical supply. Total choke. He never deals with reality and can't lie his way out of this one. "It's a Democrat hoax" didn't work this time. And no Alex Jones to help him.

Alex Jones toothpaste isn't working?
 
Good friend who is a strong trumpy and had been making fun of all the overreaction got a harsh wake up call when his dad got it. Dad is getting better, thank God, but son is doing a lot of soul searching, back peddling and admitting he was wrong. He had been ignoring the warnings and talking about Dems using it to take down t, not anymore.

Speaking of coke snorting...that's why he was impeached? Uh, sure, that must be it. My bad.

Biden's son was coke snorting. He was also screwing his dead brother's widow and getting paid a bunch of money because his last name was Biden. You libercrites LOVE to bash the Trump family for doing the same thing. Beyond that, your reading comprehension needs as much work as Stuttering Joe's assault on AR-14s.

Does that excuse this admin from attempting to downplay the emergency?

The fact is, you libtards whine no matter what Trump does. We've been over this. You'd be accusing him of being unprepared and causing a national panic if he did the opposite. He was going to meet with Kim Jong-un and you whined that he's catering to a dictator. Then when he said he might cancel, you clowns cried that he'd cause WW3. Then he actually met with him and THEN you cried he was giving fat boy credibility. It never ends with you fools. Luckily America has seen 3 full years of it and will make sure Biden doesn't win a free pizza in November.

I know... you kids need to continue your spin. "Trump lost this". No, he didn't lose anything because this is a worldwide problem that's never been seen in our lifetimes. Well, other than when Obama screwed the pooch. You clowns would be better served to actually compliment him on something... even just ONCE... so you had some credibility when you bitch. When you bitch ALL the time, people eventually ignore you.

Where did the virus come from?

You are a bigger fool than your friend.
You stick up for the fucking red Chinese just like the media.

Amid Negative Hysteria Here Are Administration Viral-Response Details the Press Does Not Want to Report

Watching the news will give you plenty of doom, but little light on the facts for known reasons.
One of the more revealing aspects amid the Wuhan coronavirus crisis has been the abject malpractice on display with the media these past weeks. Whether it is focusing on the supposed racist connotations in naming the virus, to working harder to blame President Trump for being lax on the viral response while ignoring that China spent weeks allowing the pandemic to grow and spread, our media complex has been focused on nearly everything but helpful informative reporting.
The primary way the journalists have undermined their credibility has been in the way they try to scorch Trump for the very items they had called for. They declared he erred in not closing off air travel, then after doing so he was called ‘’xenophobic’’. For how long was the demand being made by the press that the administration wasn’t working to get a cure developed? This week, when it was announced some existing drugs could possibly lend a solution, Trump was dubbed a ‘’Nazi’’ for purportedly experimenting on patients. The demand had been made for updates by the administration, but now the press has said the President has to stop or networks block broadcasts — coinciding with his rise in the approval numbers.


We have even seen the narrative flip in the matter of one day. This past Friday, when the President tried to convey a message of hope to the general public, many in the media fact-checked him and were critical of a ‘’false’’ message. Then the very next day, the Washington Post posted a column that was critical of the President for NOT showing enough empathy. So while it is clear the press is not concerned with presenting details, looking into some of those details becomes needed.
The subject of ventilators, a needed device for those suffering from respiratory issues connected to the flu-like malady, has been one frequently raised to become critical of the administration. It has been claimed the President has been lax in getting these into hospitals, a result of Trump supposedly downplaying the impact of this outbreak. The message is that we have a severe shortage, and little is being done to get these into hospitals.
Except there are ventilators available. An NBC report detailshow the country currently has approximately 160,000 ventilators on the hospital market, but there are also more in a federal backup program.

CNN's Jake Tapper under fire after admitting he didn't fact-check AOC on Trump-coronavirus claim

Trump’s coronavirus response gets mixed reviews from experts, lawmakers and public
The ‘Fox News Sunday’ panel weighs in.
CNN anchor Jake Tapper was criticized on Sunday for not correcting a claim made by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., about President Trump's handling of the coronavirus outbreak.

During an interview on "State of the Union," Ocasio-Cortez was sounding the alarm on her city and state's shortage of medical supplies but then quickly took a swipe at the Trump administration for its evolving rhetoric as the outbreak was spreading.
"We're hearing every step from this administration- first, we were hearing it was a hoax, then we were hearing that everything is fine, then we were hearing that the fundamentals of the economy was OK – until the crash comes," Ocasio-Cortez told Tapper.
She among many Democrats have accused Trump of calling the coronavirus a "hoax" on the campaign trail when he was actually conflating the uproar of the virus to the uproars of the Russia and Ukraine investigations, which he referred to as "hoaxes."
CNN BLASTED FOR ARTICLE CLAIMING TRUMP IS 'PEDDLING UNSUBSTANTIATED HOPE' AMID CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK

The Trump campaign responded to Ocasio-Cortez's comments on social media, calling the congresswoman's claim a "lie."
"AOC just repeated the lie that President Trump called coronavirus a "hoax." This is not true, and has been debunked by numerous fact-checking sources. This would've been a great time for a fact check, @jaketapper," Trump campaign rapid response staffer Abigail Marone said.

Moving at Trump Speed

Three cheers for President Trump’s success in forcing a federal bureaucracy that normally moves at the speed of a glacier to begin working at “Trump Speed.” From the day he announced he was running, Trump’s critics have ass...

Trump watching all those spring breakers in Florida and not doing anything about it, knowing they will all get on planes and go to their home states, is his Katrina moment.
