Trump looks and sounds like an idiot and is misleading about the state of the virus
In the past and currently. I have NO clue why everyone micro manages people's grammar, inflections, imposed racisms etc. but that fat fuck gets a free pass for ALL his BS in this forum.
Why? No clue. Somebody please explain why he can barely speak English yet a few of you are just fine with it as he is supposed to be a "leader" during this.
No he isn't supposed to write all the policy, have all the answers etc. but he is supposed to lead the effort. Calling it the "chinese flu" just to be an ass is one of 500 examples.
Shit I expect more out of Superintendent on my jobsites than that clown shows.
What is the rational for not expecting more from him?


Trumps main political card is the economy and he's losing atm that's why he wants to reboot the economy asap, hell of a gamble if you ask me.

Governor Cuomo: “My mother is not expendable. Your mother is not expendable. We will not put a dollar figure on human life. We can have a public health strategy that is consistent with an economic one. No one should be talking about social darwinism for the sake of the stock market.”

A+

Incoming will be arguments that keeping the economy stalled will cost more lives than the disease will kill. Capitalism is demanding its blood sacrifice. How many cuckolds here are gonna advocate killing their parents and grandparents for the wealth of the 1%?

Choosing the economy over peoples lives might piss off a lot of voters


The Republican party have made this their platform for decades and people still vote for them against their own rational interests.

Even in the dozen years leading up the right now the Republican party has made it their number one business to reduce the amount of Americans with health care and reduce the amount of rights that workers have.

There will still be plenty of dumb whites in America to a elect republicans to office.

is not the most delusional and dishonest attempt to excuse and downplay trump's terrible response to the crisis, i don't know what it is...

so it's just 'the system' / 'just the world we live in' / 'everyone does it' / 'no grounds to criticise' / 'just doing his job' / 'responsibility on the viewer' / 'not trump's fault' / 'b-b-but the media'... where is that alleged 'negativity toward him' in that?


Likening a president to a defense attorney (who makes statements intended to support a false narrative) is criticism. It might not be enough criticism for you, because you are only happy if people use words like 'terrible' and direct them all at one person in order to support an equally extreme narrative in the opposite direction.

But the real information here is that the system that led to this response is much broader than one person or even than one entire months of statement spinning a false narrative. What's happened over the last month of is a symptom of the problem, not the cause.

I've said many times "people should not listen to what Trump says". That is criticism of his statements.

you repeatedly absolve him of any personal responsibility for his actions, and continue to do so. your delusional rant from earlier might be THE textbook example for that kind of apologism, blaming his misleading and incompetent response on virtually everything BUT him. apparently you don't even realise that, which i'm not entirely sure if that makes it better or worse...
