    Italy is known for dishonest government, law enforcement and doctors. Show me hard data.

    Uh huh.

    CNN:
    Facts First: There is no evidence that Obama ever sought a meeting with Kim Jong Un, let alone that he was "begging" for a meeting or seeking a meeting "constantly."

    Ben Rhodes, former deputy national security adviser to Obama said Obama "never even considered" seeking a meeting with Kim.

    "Obama never even deliberated on whether to meet Kim because circumstances were never appropriate. It was never in the conversation. I don't always agree with Ben Rhodes's judgments, but this is a factual issue and he's right about this."

    Trump elevated North Korea and legitimized the rule of a brutal dictator. There is a lot that Trump "accomplished".

    So what then: you want evidence that my opinion is my opinion, or evidence that my prediction will come true?

    Not trying to get to personal or number specific on a public forum so if you dont want to or cant answer the questions I understand and am not trying to be rude.

    Are you saying that you dont believe your stock portfolio will recover to previous numbers until 12-18 months? From say mid February.

    Hey, lookie here, another time people are going to ask you for a source for your claims while you likely run away from doing so and expect other people to do your homework for you.

    Lol... well that was a hole lot of **** **** games for such a simple request. Why didn't you say so in the first place?

    Creepy Uncle Gaff doesn't even have an economic platform for normal circumstances, much less a pandemic recovery https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5e600688c5b644545ea47d82
    He's basically running on 'Orange man bad, PC good' and that isn't gonna pull us out of this.

    And here we can get a rough idea of what HillaBush claimed to be planning:
    https://www.businessinsider.com/2015-election-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-economic-plans-2016-11
    The increased corporate tax rate and increased regs in particular would have just been more of the same, weighing us down to eat Chinas wake.

    Neither makes me think they'd be likely to pull out a hail mary to avoid pandemic shutdown collapse.

    Must have missed it.

    No. They would have focused on the outbreak which is the key to handling the economic impact. Unfortunately, we were slow, ham handed, and now we’ve got the cart-before-the-horse and that going to increase the economic impact.

    The wrong administration at the wrong time.

    Knowing only what we knew at the time - that is, w/o the benefit of hindsight - what should Trump have done, when and why?

    A lot of people knew this would be a major pandemic. Trump even claims that he knew, but for some reason didn't act on his knowledge.

    Are you ******* us with that question?
    A better question would be, how many of the usual suspects are still in the Bernie Sanders train.

    Gone to his infectious disease people ad said, "If we do have the virus move into the US, what do you need supply wise
    to help combat it. What type of plan do we need to have in place, just in case it hits here?"

    And please stop with the "well, Obama ..." crap.
