Trump has halted WHO funds and say he's "tired of watching baseball gams that are 14 years old" and wants sport back
My message to Trump; -
"Mr President, How do you think we feel over here, not being able to watch our football over here? and in the current climate it IS NOT possible as you can 't observe distancing in gatherings."
As for his WHO funds hope the WHO tell him to take a running jump if he aske them for assistance. He is officially a nutcase in my book.
Trump trying to deflect criticism of his own mismanagement of the health emergency back in the US. The day before he was hell bent on lampooning the media. Now he blames the WHO. Typical of a President obsessed with a necessity for self congratulation and utterly incapable and unwilling to accept criticism.
Disingenuous twit
.
Snookered mate he's a President who thinks he's always right, and hates it when people criticise him when he's wrong. And I doubt many voters in November will remember his handling of this when they vote. And I think Biden will have to embarrass him with his handling of this at some point in their debates
He should have self - isolated and should have been kept in isolation a long time ago...
I said it once before & I'll say it agsin - I think America just can't see how big an idiot of a President he really is.
It's amazing even though I am well used to it, his argument with the CBS interviewer & his attacking of The WHO still manages to piss the fuck out of me.
The lockdowns of course were not originally essential. South Korea, one of the worse hit nations have had a relatively low death rate & have avoided lockdowns, how? Test, test, test which has then in turn allowed them to isolate, quarantine & contain the spread. The lockdowns are a result of a lack of information due to an absence of testing, it's all we can do. President Obama, in a vid I posted earlier, wanted to improve the US pandemic infrastructure, the Republicans in the Senate rejected it because it was deemed too expensive at $7bn (the US annual budget exceeds $3Tn so he was asking for less than 0.3% of the annual budget).
So the Republican's refusal to fund this has cost American lives but of course they don't really care about that they care about $$$. So put it this way in response to the shutdowns & the affect that they will have on the economy Congress has passed a $2Tn aid/stimulus plan, they may in fact pass more relief packages, so in refusal to spend $7bn a few years ago Republicans have cost American taxpayers at least $2tn.
^At no personal cost to Trump himself of course....

I'm sure many others will echo that same thought mate...

Don't underestimate the stupidity of people who put themselves in hospital after drinking fish tank cleaner because the name looked similar to chloroquine.
Her husband won't be voting for Trump this time though. Or indeed, voting for anyone else. Ever again.
So there is a degree of natural selection taking place...
Trump says the pandemic "Could have been stopped in China"

The pandemic he said was a hoax not too long ago
Noticed he's getting a few grey hairs in briefings - he needs to invest more in in hair colourings and less on the fake tan
Biden's latest campaign add
I do feel that there is a danger that Biden might focus too much on Trump. This is a mistake that I think Hilary made in 2016 that so much of her campaign was based on look how terrible this guy is and not enough of what she could offer. Biden, in my opinion, should be weary even though the country has been exposed to nearly 4 yrs of the Trump Presidency his supporters think he is doing good & convincing people that what they believe is wrong is very difficult.
Yes, this crisis has weakened public perception of Trump more than anything & that should be exploited but I think they have to balance that with an offer of something better. So you can say to the people, particularly the swing voters in the blue wall states that Clinton lost, "ok you think Trump by and large has done a good job up until now, I hear you, I can give you more"
