Official Trump administration bungling response to pandemic thread.

[picnroll]

yep, excellent journalism.

Seattle vs NYC, why the different outcomes?

Seattle (and SF Bay Area counties) let the scientists, professionals, doctors decide,

while NYC got side-tracked, misguided by state and city politicians.

I’m not sure you can hold NY entirely to blame for their situation relative to Seattle. They got hit through the backdoor, Europe, where people weren’t paying attention. They were thoroughly seeded before the first case came to attention, 400,000 people, a high percentage on international flights, per day come through Kennedy and Newark airports. From first case identified to lockdown they were the quickest of any state, things just exploded fast there. They have had one consistent spokesperson, Cuomo who has followed the health official game-plan with apparently cooperation of NYers far better than almost all other state. Id much prefer Cuomo leading the effort than the numb nuts politician we have innTexas.

NY is a extraordinarily difficult problem.
Abbott would have killed people if he followed his buddy Dan Patrick down the hole.

Yeah.

It must be fun almost stroking out on National TV
I sure her friends and fellow scientists would just be delighted to be in that seat.

& you'd be absolutely correct. Telling the old man what he wants to hear, committing to memory every time he picks his nose, or, breaks wind, then excusing themselves and going into the WH can to jot down notes while they're parked on the ter. Then wiping and stealing WH soap.

They're green with jealousy.

This is as good as it's gonna get for her and it will never get this good again. Sure, if Biden wins he'll invite her in, drag out to spite the old man, but, being on that stage with a somebody you ain't trying to stab in the back is small potatoes compared to being on the stage with public enemy #1 who you hate with a passion.

I genuinely think he wants the death count as high as possible to use against Trump in November. That's the only way his stance could make any logical sense and it's ing sociopathic. I mean god I would love it if chloroquine turns out to be a cure, I could give a less if Trump could do six months of victory laps on the way to a landslide victory in November if it saves hundreds of thousands of American lives and turns the pandemic into something manageable.

wrong

it works in the opposite way...

Any professional should be a true professional and this way - trump has no choice but to be exposed as someone who cannot retain professionals...

birx is ALREADY a political replacement...

Nancy Messonnier, director of CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases


was the original - and on Feb 25th - she warned the world - and trump got rid of her and replaced her with Pence and these shills


so all this bull of birx being a godsend is just wrong

that first lady did her duty- trump got rid of her and history will show that - that move caused thousands of deaths


birx should have kept her integrity

and the next person after her is responsible to keep their integrity, etc...


this business of being in fear of who trump might insert is just weak and reactionary cowardice

[picnroll]

Birx is healthcare’s sacrificial lamb thrown on the bonfire of Trump’s stupidity, straining to refrain from screaming or laughing hysterically.

OK in the real world I'd still like to have an adult in the room advising Trump rather than have him throw a fit and say all the experts if she pisses him off when his instinct is to just not do anything and let the virus wash directly over all of us.

yeah, never underestimate this guy, tbh... he could name Jared or ducks as his next health expert...

well - crazy as this sounds -

that is what this will eventually come down to - and ONLY THEN -

will the cult actually UNDERSTAND who they voted for -

it is NOT our job to save him -
to coddle him

to fear his bad choices

let him do what he has to do -


it is EVERY MAN/WOMAN/CHILD for themselves and that is how I have been looking at this life since 2016 -

you are misinformed if you think you can count on this current administration for anything and crazier if you believe ONE word they put out.

That's ing re ed, his cult will never turn on him. He has killed 55,000 of us, what makes you think increasing that body count by 10x or 20x would change anything? You just want him to fire them so he can have one more really bad news cycle.

well

eventually he will kill the families of his cult -


THEN it will hit them and only then will they get it.

It is going to come down to it - mark my words -
there is zero chance he is voted out legally - he wont play fair - he will steal the election - and we are all going to be sitting here this november/december

scratching our heads as we wait for his inauguration and worrying about how in the world we are going to get him out of office.


I said it before - THIS WILL NOT END WELL -

so all your pussyfooting and trying to brace everytime someone on his staff defends him - is pointless.

He will do anything he has to do to avoid prosecution/prison -

leaving office

for trump

and for Russia -

is NOT an option.

So you want Trump voters to die. Probably time to put you on ignore now.

He can't get a straight ing answer. And it'll stay dynamic until (they're) ready to call it a day. And we ain't there yet, not even close.

You are missing the gravity of the oncoming disaster the longer trump is in office

Pretty much.

They were a bit late in responding, and it cost them. Just as it does every where else.

This virus is an excellent reminder that reality will assert itself over ideology every time if that ideology demands a model of the universe that is not true.

Today it looks like they've ended community transmission..

Makes it a little easier when you are an island with low population density and had a month to watch the rest of the world figure out how bad the boogievirus really was.

Trash was warned in Dec '18 by US military and Americans at WHO/Geneva about the epidemic in China.

Trash did nothing, other than praising Xi and exporting tons of US medical equipment, and LYING about the risk of C19 well after the Chinese disaster was known around the world.

His "ban" of China allowed 10Ks of Chinese into USA.

The Trash Pandemic will be burned into Trash's legacy as the worst, most dangerous, highest-body count President ever.
