    What were the lies?

    And if he was using a technique from Rush Limbaugh, then he is a ****ing moron in addition to having a meltdown.

    Turn your channel to any other network, i don't care which one. Choose, NBC, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, BBC, BLOOMBERG, AlJazeera, CSPAN --- ANY other channel but Fox and you will get a dose of REAL news for a change. But you don't want REAL news from anyone because you only want to buy into Fox's conspiracy and ************, and they deal it out to you in heavy doses, you're all brainwashed and everyone else in the world is wrong, only Fox News is RIGHT in your twisted little worlds. And you don't see anything wrong with that picture?

    Give me a break the press loves Cuomo the don't ask him hard questions, they don't lie about what the says, he says the same thing the president does and they think he is the greatest thing on earth. Did they challenge him he wanted to take the national guard to take respirators from upstate hospitals as he is transporting cases from NYC to those very same upstate hospitals? did they question him about releasing prisoners back into the public becasue they where worried that prisons might have cases. With the release of prisoners there has been a uptick of crime did they ask about that?
    Did they ask about the huge pay raise he just got instead of buying supplies that he was told years earlier where going to be needed, also about the state being broke yet can still have that big pay raise. Did they ask why so may votes are taking place in the middle of the night that gives him more power with no public debate?

    Let's take real inventory of whose responsible for what:


    1. China/ China's American Media
    2. Who
    3. Trump
    4. Democrats

    Both sides have been on both sides of this argument lol......

    Trumps biggest failings to me are bring all Americans in Europe back all at the same time, testing and the biggest his press conference behavior

    The media horrible messed this up as well not covering it at first and focusing more on scoring political wins than informing the public

    Democrats could've drafted legislation to beef up healthcare and didn't, they tried to put dumb crap in the corona bill

    Of course not, but don't think for a minute that the virus didn't make it through that quarantine. Was there follow-up with any of those 40,000 people? Nope. Did all 40,000 go into quarantine, or just those with symptoms? I don't know. Do you?

    And the couple hundred Americans who were on the Diamond Princess in Yokohama were also brought home, all on the same plane in spite of the fact that at least 14 of them positively had the virus. Did the virus not make it out of their quarantine? I don't know. Do you?

    My point is that many people who should have known better have said and done some stupid **** during this fiasco, and we can trade whataboutisms all night, but my bottom line is that incompetence rolls down from the top. Trump is the president; he owns this, he's been screwing it up, and he will likely continue to do so.

    "I don't take responsibility at all." That about sums it up.

    The only great job he's done is whine, point fingers, and claim no responsibility. That is the leader of the RW of America.

    Actually, they did. Trump refused to issue a nationwide stay at home order, so governors both Dem and GOP made those decisions themselves long before Trump's first set of "guidelines" was issued.

    The media doesn't make people abhor Trump. He does that himself.

    What would constitute total collapse, and why do you think that could happen?

    I didn't even know she'd said that until recently. Did she ever acknowledge her mistake? That is something Trump never does.

    I'm not denying that she said something stupid, so how am I giving her a pass? What would satisfy you as a proper reaction? Should I have a hissy fit and shout "lock her up!"? Were you expecting that it would somehow convert me into a Trump supporter or what?

    And it is fitting and proper that the Governors do so. Trump has no authority to issue "stay at home orders," just as he has no authority to lift such orders.

    Of course the media make people abhor Trump or at least they are doing their level best in that regard. Democrats and their masters in the media don't seem all that interested in addressing this plague. They attach irrelevant legislation to stimulus bills. They are doing all they can to drive a wedge between Fauci and Trump. They propose to launch investigations before this thing is over. For better or worse, Trump is in charge. It serves only narrow partisan interests to undermine the President's authority.

    The country ought to unite before a common enemy. What are Democrats doing to promote this unity?

    The media absolutely does that, although he is most certainly winning.

    Trump took action long before any democrats did. This is FACT.

    He is the leader of ALL of America and doing a great job. He has gotten help to all those who requested it and even got thanked by never trumpers.

    Great Job President Trump!

    WRONG.

    None of those are real news. They are all fake news propagandists seeking only the twist facts to suit their agenda. The reason you seem so uninformed might be because of the news sources you are choosing. You are brainwashed to hate Trump. Your hate, is manufactured by the news.

    You should improve.

    Wrong, much of the world loves Trump and agrees with him. You are objectively incorrect.

    WRONG

    You're just brainwashed enough to believe that only one news source is real. Every one of the hundreds of reporting agencies from all over the world are wrong -- only Fox News is right. And you don't see anything wrong with that?

    WRONG.

    You are legit brainwashed enough to believe that any of those sources are anything but propagandists. Even CNNs employees are acknowledging it is fake news.

    I never said only Fox News is right. You are putting words in my mouth. You literally have no argument so you have to create one to address lmao.

    How do you define the word "much" because the technical requirement is "more than one."

    His claim was the “entire world”.

    You liked that post, so you must believe it as well. And it is objectively wrong.

    Yep, it could have been a lot worse had he not been such a great leader getting help to the states that requested it. Even NY and Cali governors thanked him.

    Considering how many could have died according to the original estimates...this is very good news.
