I think he’s lying about the 20 percent. It could even be higher than that.
& Manuchin threatening that unemployment will hit 20% unless Congress passes these multiple spending bills is nonsense & he is knows it.
It is going to 20+% regardless.

more like 50%
save a miracle like God shooting lasers at the virus
so stupid
Props to Trump to referring to this the Chinese Virus. The entire media was originally calling it that or Wuhan. Perhaps this shame will encourage China to make changes that do not encourage viruses like this in the future.
Thanks. Too good to be true.
My point exactly. He found a niche not to bust China's balls, but, to bust MSM's balls.
Yep. Tell it, Nathan. Testify!!!
Beats the side effects of suc bing to the disease...

President Sniffles McAdderall's incoherent sundown-ish rambling was ing weird. Did you watch it?
n times of national crisis, the country is supposed to rely on the president to provide clear messages to guide them through new problems. But as America continues to deal with the coronavirus outbreak, President Donald Trump is failing.
That was very clear at Thursday’s daily coronavirus press briefing, as Trump went on long, boastful rants, talked about unrelated topics, and joked about kicking journalists out of daily press briefings. At times, it was unclear what Trump was talking about at all.https://www.vox.com/policy-and-polit...isis-messagingDuring normal times, these unclear, random rants are bizarre but possible to overlook — we’ve even gotten a bit accustomed to them with Trump as president. But during a national crisis, it’s dangerous.
Trump has not done that. Besides an uncharacteristically competent press conference on Monday, he has downplayed the risks of Covid-19 — comparing it to the common flu, which isn’t as dangerous as the novel coronavirus, and suggested that “one day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” At one point, he called concerns about the virus a “hoax.”
Public health experts have been highly critical of Trump’s messaging. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Ins ute, previously called it “deeply disturbing,” adding that it’s “left the country far less prepared than it needs to be for what is a very substantial challenge ahead.”
While Trump has started to take the threat of coronavirus more seriously in his public remarks since Monday, he’s used racist, xenophobic language to describe the virus. That continued on Thursday as well, along with his other disjointed remarks.
Trump could have given the podium over to his administration’s coronavirus task force leaders and experts, who have generally done a much better job over the past few weeks messaging what needs to be done. While Trump typically does this at some point in the press conferences, it’s not until after he’s delivered a ramble of his own — and the experts are often forced to clarify or amend the president’s comments. Indeed, FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn on Thursday had to clarify that upcoming coronavirus treatments are being tested and offered through traditional means, not “right to try.”
It says volumes when something we used to take for granted, i.e. competent briefings, is "uncharacteristic".
Monday was a stand-out from the normal Trump flavored show... now it is back to Trump flavored show.
Rudderless and clueless.
Home testing for Covid 19

[collective eyeroll]
Only some self-absorbed lazy ass would think they speak for the collective.
So now there's a global swab shortage. Great.
[indifference]
There is a joke there somewhere...
I'm sure there is...
Everlywell says it is ready to ship 30,000 COVID-19 tests, and plans to expand the number of labs processing the samples. But CEO and founder Julia Cheek says that scaling up the number of testing kits will depend on the availability of swabs for collecting samples. Three major manufacturers make the swabs, but the main producer, it turns out, is a company based in Italy. Because the country is under lockdown, limited supplies from there, as well as the surge in demand as more COVID-19 testing is conducted around the world, are leading to a global shortage of swabs for any lab performing the test. That’s why Everlywell’s first kits will contain only one swab, and Everlywell will limit kits to one per household until the supply of swabs becomes more plentiful.
“We’re working hard to ramp up weekly capacity to test 250,000 Americans,” says Cheek. “Our goal is to continue to refresh capacity but with the global swab shortage we don’t have a confirmed timeline for that yet. Ultimately, she says, the testing kits could be designed for a household so everyone in a family could be tested if needed to know what protective measure they might need to take.
Supply chain mismanagement in action. You’d think they’d have figure this out. Its a stick with some cotton on the end. But they’re also out of pipettes, culture media, etc. What a cluster train wreck.
In China when it was at it’s worse they were relying on chest CTs to make the diagnosis. Will probably come to that. Radiologists, my daughter being one, at very high risk.

How's that for irony... virus from China disrupts Chinese based supply chains, hampering response to virus in other countries using that supply chain.
Jeeez man, it is a cotton ball on a stick... really cant figure out how to do that somewhere else?
when hits the fan, add a lil socialism to ease the pain
Communists!!!
Vietnam be like:
That's only yelled out when things appear to be good on the surface
