What are your thoughts on the Kung Flu?

So, that's between January and a couple of weeks ago?

It must have been between March 7th and March 9th or 10th. On March 7th he said he was not concerned at all the disease was spreading and he was quoted on 3/17 that he felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic (which happened March 11th).

I am really, really concerned about this recent spending. About, a potential loss of our credit rating, collapse of the mortgage/housing market, devaluation of our money, enslaving our kids with debt for generations, etc.

The whole way this went down with the planned forcing of a non-vote by the cabal to approve a mega amount of money with seemingly little details. I am not a fan of 90% of congress or Trump on this account whatsoever.

Annecdotally, today I and a colleague had people come in demanding letters that they should be considered COVID high risk (even though they are not), because their employer would be getting federal money, and they were told that they could not work while collecting their regular pay if they could get a doctor's note saying that they are high risk. And so it begins.

Hey President Mike7 what are you going to do about the deficit? Your children and mine are going to inherit it. Sorry I could resist.

What deficit that's fake news. Come on you believe everything you see on TV those guys are just out to get me. Everything is fine in fact it's the best the country has ever seen it!

Probably in between the time that he intimated it was a hoax and thought people were being hysterical and the point where he knew it was a pandemic before other people called it a pandemic

never called the virus a hoax, just the way the Democrats were losing their shit:

Coronavirus: Trump calls criticism Democrat 'hoax'

The president said criticism of his reaction to the coronavirus outbreak is a Democrat-led "hoax".

www.bbc.com

Did President Trump Refer to the Coronavirus as a 'Hoax'?

Trump's commentary on the new coronavirus came before the virus began killing patients in the U.S.

www.snopes.com

finally, just read it in his own jumbled words: https://www.rev.com/blog/transcript...th-carolina-rally-transcript-february-28-2020

So, you are suggesting that I who am pleased that our state/local government acted aggressively to reduce the spread of the disease would criticize aggressive action to treat the disease? On the contrary, I am all for it and am critical of medical professionals who are dismissing clinical studies based on small sample sizes in an effort to identify COVID-19 treatments.

But go on, your partisanship demands it.

Oh bother...

No, the entire thing was a parody on your continued use of the word hoax to push a tiresome false political narrative, by giving everyone a current example of the media's very same bait and switch tactic.

I just like truth. Hence why I generally dislike our current media and politicians when they distort it.

The truth is currently unavailable.....

So, I try to call balls and strikes evenly on all players, but you're going to complain that there is something wrong with my morals because I don't call all balls while your player is up to bat. Please listen to yourself.

 

[Mike7]

My fact check is to watch an administration briefing, impeachment trial, supreme court confirmatiin hearing, etc. followed by watching or reading the news, and see for myself how insultingly dishonest the coversge is.

I damn sure don't need a liberal arts degree socialist reporter with no love for the constitution or knowledge of the responsibility of a free press to incorrectly digest a CDC report or scientific article for me.

So your saying the way YOU see it is the correct way. Got it.

That was a tongue in cheek to the response to if you were President. Tough questions are always fake news

Just read the Governor of New York put out an executive order to have the National Guard take the ventilators and PPE from hospitals that are not in current use to redistribute to hot zones. The hospitals that are losing their supplies will likely have patients that need them also. If patients in the outlying areas are dying because their supplies were taken elsewhere I could see the situation getting ugly. I hope I'm wrong and it doesn't happen.

Cuomo signs executive order to deploy National Guard to round up unused ventilators, PPE

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Friday that he is deploying the National Guard to round up unused ventilators and personal protective equipment from across the state so they can be redistributed to hospitals on the front lines of the coronavirus outbreak.

Continued? I made one reference I am aware of where Trump in his own words compared COVID-19 to another situation he repeatedly referred to as a hoax. Note I did not suggest he said the COVID-19 threat was a hoax.

Maybe you are confusing which one of Trump and I has an infatuation with that word?

This is serious stuff

If your influenced by twenty seconds of campaign propaganda that's ok by me.
Using it to build a narrative on with supporting links from Snopes just confirms it's unreliable as a news source.

Personally, I am just glad we have the POTUS we do right now....

If your not of that mindset that's Ok with me.......

 

[jmez]

Per your source (Worldometer) 4-5 days for both total US cases and total deaths. And, unfortunately, no sign that either is beginning to slow down.

Correct, my bad on the ten days. Total deaths still climbing linear but daily new cases is flattening.

Apparently it must not be that bad in Oregon if we are shipping our ventilators to NY...

Per Cuomo this is what’s best for Oregon. Huh
