Press: If a US President loses more Americans than died in the Vietnam war, does he deserve to be reelected?
Trump: Nicely answering. I'd have ignored her.

And we are done.

 

I see the left has their new marching order. Compare this to Vietnam.

 

Let's see how that works for them.

Welp, since the White House controls the seating in the Rose Garden, I'd look for more Rose Garden pressers. ?

 

 

Agreed. I think another big determining factor is the wind. That first one they did in the Rose Garden near the start of this thing, when it was windy, didn't do well with his hair. :lol:

He also called out some reporters on this.

 

“ I think some of you were on the line, even though you weren’t supposed to be”


He's said that before on nearly Governors call, which make me think that, not only are their reporters listening in at the behest of certain governors, but that Trump/Trump staff knows exactly who it is.

So, Trump knows that some are listening, but he's doing nothing about it?

 

Is it because he doesn't want to hurt their feelings?

 

Anyone who believes that Trump knows something that would help his overall standing and is not making it public has not been paying attention for 3 years.

Rapidly expanding capacity. We are confident we have enough testing capacity to reopen.
 


Not what Birx and Fauci said this weekend. Trump continues to put out mixed messages. 
 

Also the serology testing is having serious reliability issues. I hope that gets wrapped up soon.

Since I did not see either interview, I cannot reply to what they said, and their mixed messaging.

As far as President Trump's testing messaging: he, and VP Pence have been saying since they put out the 3 phases that there are enough tests for the states that qualify, to reopen in phase one. This has been said at presser after presser. If you listened today, you heard all the ways the testing is being scaled-up so the states are prepared for all test results (there have been plenty of tests, the governors were not aware of all the lab capacity). Since the Governors were sent that inches-thick memorandum on available testing (NAZ+telephone number of the labs) that issue has been cleared. Also, there was more information today on the testing, test results, at home testing, etc.

So, sit down chicken little. If you want a test, ask your doctor for a script and go get one.

Note: You can't dispute what I wrote so you fell back on childhood chatter. 

 

No wonder you believe him when he says the virus will magically disappear in April.

 

When you can explain why Trump WOULDN'T expose those he hates, you will tell us.

 

I know you can't, but I'm offering you the opportunity to do so. 

 

So, explain your point of view. Please.

Sweetie, you wrote gibberish. Now, ask you mommy to tuck you in for the night. And don't worry, I won't tell her you were at the computer past your bedtime pestering adults with foolishness. Shhhhh it will be our secret. ?

Find us a governor and a non partisan health care expert who says they have enough testing.....I can’t get a test where I live nor can my parents in Florida....

 

Trump sends the governors out to fight the war....doesn’t give them the  resources to win...and everyday drags up a bunch of either syncopants or lap dogs to tell him otherwise

There you go.

 

Everyone here can see I have given you two opportunities to explain your rationale for why Trump would choose not to out the reporters spying on him.

 

Twice you have been unable to answer. Instead, you stuck out your tongue, put your fingers in your ears and whined.

 

Sometimes this stuff is too easy. Very weak.

You literally never explain any of your reasoning and have been a drive by troll since the beginning.

 

Do you ever look into the mirror?

You're saying that like the POTUS could just sh1t them out! If it's that easy to gather together everything the governors need, why aren't they doing it themselves?

Dude.  Barber shops and hair salons have been closed for weeks and many of us have resorted to trimming our own hair. Does ANYBODY really want to look in the mirror at this point?

I will always pass on Dr Fauci.
I listen to Dr Birx at the pressers.

Regardless, Trump and Pence have has the same answer for over a week... there is enough testing for the states that are eligible to open based on the phases. If you want a test because you are experiencing symptoms, contact your doctor for a script and go get a test.

Why, it's the latest rage! The CCP demands that Prevacid be given to everyone - but some here say you can't give any drug to anyone without first having it undergo stringent Clinical Trials - to prove its efficacy for this new indication. 

Who said that?

Every time I think I have the most annoying posters on ignore, another pops up like you can't get enough usernames amongst yourselves to genuinely believe you contribute anything to this board other than the most embarrassing, childish tripe the left could ever devise.

 

My ignore list hasn't been this long since the nigh everyone found out Hillary lost to the candied yam.

 

 


What “embarrassing, childish tripe” have I offered or devised?  
 

Perhaps you’re bothered by debate and the free exchange of ideas.  I’m sorry to hear that.  We could have had some good times together, you and me.

If you didn't spend so much time promoting a fish tank cleaner as a new super drug maybe you could get your facts right, eh? Who were those 40,000 people you refer to? Did you know that typically speaking 20,000 people a day travel from China to the U.S.?

His point was that this travel ban that Trump repeatedly boasts about wasn't a total travel ban.  Trump has repeatedly said people went to Italy because Italy did not have a travel ban and people couldn't come to the US, so they went to Italy.  In fact, Italy did institute a travel ban, it was effective days before ours and it supposedly didn't have the loopholes Trump's did.

So you're saying that Trump is withholding tests or that his administration is slow walking test availability on purpose?  He should have just waved his magic wand weeks ago and had 300 million tests distributed to states?

I picked up one of those little Remington trimmers online.  It does the job.  Watched a video of a guy giving himself a haircut so I could learn how to do it myself.  It came out OK.  Can’t put lipstick on this pig, anyways, so as long as I’m comfortable aesthetics can wait.

these people are not reporters or the media. They are democrat/socialist party operatives. Nothing else. They shield themselves with media credentials and the constitution, but most right headed people in this country see through it.

There's a reason for that. And the blame lies at the feet of a handful of posters with multiple accounts who feel it's their duty to troll. Mind you, I have no issue with posters who disagree (even wildly) with myself when they also show a willingness to engage honestly and openly. It's the drive by trolls who do the damage to the conversational flow in this thread and many others. 

 

That leaves two options when they start their morning romper room nuttiness: engage and embarrass, or ignore. Most days I lean towards the latter -- but others... We're at war, right this very moment. It's not a war with bullets, but information. And sometimes (not every time) people need to stand up and call out the disinformation for what it is, lest more people fall under its spell. 

Oh captain my captain.

Well that is an interesting way of phrasing it.  What states are eligible?

 

All the Governors I've heard have complained that there aren't enough supplies in terms of swabs or reagents to perform the testing at an appropriate scale.

That’s right.  Commies with copy paper.  That’s why I have an OAN feed on at my house and place of business at all times, just in case one of those lefties tries to confuse me with truth or logic.

Are they the same governors who claim the federal government needs to bail out their state's pensions because of Wuhan Virus?

 

Asking for a friend.

What does that have to do with the supply chain problem they talk about?

They had a governors call today. You may want to call your governor's office to see if they are low on testing supplies if you are confused.  In any event, if you need a test because you have symptoms, contact your doctor so you can get a script. Listening to the briefings, depending on where you live you can go to CVS, WalMart, Rite Aid, Walgreens, Kroger...  There are 20M swabs out there, millions of tests, a ton of lab capacity.

I'm not confused.  I simply don't blindly take Trump or Pence's word as fact.

Let's see what we can line up.

 

What states specifically are complaining? Can you post us links?

NY, Maryland and Michigan were a few.
