    What I found telling was trumps body language when pence was talking

    Ever seen a four year old bored and swinging his body when the adults are talking?

    I wondered how long it would take for one of the team to break. Dr. Fauci covering his face as Trump rambled was classic.

    No one should be surprised that a businessman who lied habitually would lie habitually as president.

    No one should be surprised that a floundering businessman would flounder as president.

    Nor should anyone be surprised by the profound, even fatal, human consequences of Trump's lies and incompetence.

    Are you ****ing kidding?

    Just look at Pence’s response. I don’t like some of his policies, but THAT was a presidential answer.

    The squad, whether you agree with them or not, are clearly able to function above the level of blind partisan politics. The serious thinking Left has clearly rejected the DP establishment, but even some establishment Democrats are able to rise above partisan hackery when their vanity is being consumed by the bonfire of blind political ambition.

    ""We had a private conversation, but he said, 'We're gonna do the right thing' and 'You have my support, all of our support, logistically and otherwise,'" Newsom told reporters at a Monday news conference.

    "He said everything I could have hoped for," the governor asserted. "And we had a very long conversation and every single thing he said, they followed through on," he noted.

    "Every single thing... has been consistent with expectation we'd repatriate these passengers and do it in a way that does justice to the spirit that defines the best of our country," the governor said."

    In fact, Trump, unlike most politicians, follows through on his promises.

    "Every single thing... has been consistent with expectation we'd repatriate these passengers and do it in a way that does justice to the spirit that defines the best of our country," the governor said."

    Are you upset because Trump is handling the Corona Virus a lot better than Obama/Biden did with H1N1. The H1N1 Mexican virus originated in Veracruz Mexico, yet Obama/Biden never closed the Mexican border or stopped travel to Mexico to stop the spread of the virus. The Obama/Biden death toll ended up at 12,000+ American citizens. The current death toll from the Chinese Wuhan Virus in the US is 154.

    In fact, Obama, not Trump was the great threat to independent journalism in the US.

    No, I wasn't aware of that.

    Probably because I live in reality and not in a parallel dimension where there are alternative facts.

    You have been misinformed.

    "In the report, Downie examined a range of Obama administration tactics that hinder government transparency. These include unprecedented use of the Espionage Act in prosecuting media leaks, classifying government documents as secret when no harm could come from their release, increased government surveillance that jeopardizes the safety of news sources, Freedom of Information Act violations, and White House-produced content that can’t substitute for independent, accountability journalism."

    you can vote for him in 2024 then, assuming he doesn't decide to step down and retire.

    You'd probably, "love," the way the press is handled in Russia, N. Korea, and China, too! Very similar leadership M.O. with Trump's childish, vile, temper. Sadly for him, and you, ours is a free press. Crap like him will only get more and more frustrated by it. If I were the reporter I would have responded, "You're a terrible President!" ;)

    We’re talking about Trump as president. Trump’s response was that of a coward. A childish, whining bully.

    That was only highlighted by Pence showing him how it really should be done.

    Basically Trumps answer to "How would you comfort your people" was to scare his people.

    I think Trump is acting far more "adult" than the people who are trying to use the Wuhan virus as another reason to bash the president.
    I have visions of Hillary Clinton propped up to that podium or worse yet, Crazy Uncle Joe trying to figure out where he was.

    More typical partisan election cycle baloney.
    Trump has been unusually open and tolerant with respect to the press.
    Pointing out that the MSM = Fake News is just telling the truth. Virtually everyone knows that now.
