    That's just more retarded fake news from the Washington 'Jimmy's World' Post. Only morons take their fake news articles seriously.

    “The entire MSM lies for 3 years, pitting the public against the president” and that’s perfectly OK.

    Just imagine if the entire MSM not just one station was accusing Obama of being a Taliban spy 24/7 based on total conjecture, from a report gathered by a former spy from another country. Then entire media complex naught into it. And the more Obama denied it the more everyone pushed, you think he would have been elected again? Hardly.

    imagine whenever a black person killed a white person it was blamed on Obama. Imagine all the damage from a storm was blamed on Obama. Imagine if every death from the flu during his years were blamed on Obama. Ect

    Imagine people working in the WH were leaking every bit of info they had to the press. Any words he said that could be over heard. And the regardless of anything was true everyone would run stories about whatever was said.

    Thats what Trump is dealing with. Lie after lie and twisted truths, fake stories given headlines. Completely unrelated tragedies blamed on the president. It’s all such a joke.

    Imagine that Fox news did just that for eight years while Obama was in office. Oh never mind, we don't have to imagine, it actually happened.

    Sure its killed thousands.. You would know i said that with the information i provided... There are ways to treat it... ( aka treat the symptoms) but no there is no "cure" just like there is not a "Cure" for a common cold.

    Simply put even the CDC can not say the official number is factual due to a number of parameters.

    What he is saying is that even the Washington Post was saying the same things during that time period....

    1) I don't feel they downplayed the virus at all. there are plenty of segments of them calling out libs for people rioting and protesting not wearing masks
    2) people should learn to think for THEMSELVES! FOX, CNN and MSNBC ain't yo daddy!
    3) GROW UP!

    He fixed all of Cuomo’s & De Blasio’s problems.

    He got them all & more ventilators & had hospitals built in days.

    DeBlasio auctioned off their excess ventilators a couple years ago because he did not want to pay the maintenance & Cuomo ignored the CDC warning on their ventilator shortage.

    Cuomo is the one who killed thousands of senior citizens by forcing the nursing homes to take covid19 positive patients.

    Meanwhile dementia Joe was in his cellar yelling you need to lead with science.

    No specifics, just science.
    The fool Biden also wanted to use stimulus money for the green new deal & college tuition forgiveness.

    How would that help us fight covid19?

    The threat isn't serious as long as you are 70 or older, obese, diabetic, or have previous existing conditions.

    If you fall into those categories stay home and wait for the magic potion and let the country get back to normal...

    We are talking about beginning in January when Trump, and consequently Fox, was telling America it was under control, contained, and no need to worry. Since that time, the theme has been pretty much the same, as the deaths mounted, Trump, and Fox, were still downplaying it's danger, even as late as last week Trump led everyone to believe that the current resurgence was largely due to testing

    I never said Trump was perfect on his corona handling. and more testing does mean more people with corona virus are found (although trump trying to spin it as the main reason is shady and I'm not gonna try to defend it). I do also think people being laid back about it is leading to an up tick in cases. I still don't see what Fox has to do with it though.
