The Democrats are desperate to blame President Trump for the Wuhan coronavirus, and to criticize any measures his administration may take. They are shameless, too; at first, his responsean early ban on travel from China, which undoubtedly saved liveswas racist and xenophobic, while now anything he does is too little. Meanwhile, one country after another, Germany and Canada most recently, is closing down its borders. I guess there are xenophobes everywhere.
The New York Times bashes the president daily, usually by peddling fake news. The latest example comes from Editorial Board member Mara Gay, the same one who said on MSNBC that 500 is one million times 327. Here, she simply misquoted the president. Dan Bongino has the story.
First, Gays tweet with its alleged Trump quote:
Trump told governors this morning they are on their own:
Respirators, ventilators, all of the equipment try getting it yourselves, Mr. Trump told the governors during the conference call, a recording of which was shared with The New York Times. https://t.co/K0sont7MBc— Mara Gay (@MaraGay) March 16, 2020
Bonginos response, which has been echoed by many:
Trump told governors this morning they are on their own:
Respirators, ventilators, all of the equipment try getting it yourselves, Mr. Trump told the governors during the conference call, a recording of which was shared with The New York Times. https://t.co/K0sont7MBc— Mara Gay (@MaraGay) March 16, 2020
RedState explains at the link:
Trump made similar points this afternoon during a White House Coronavirus Task Force press briefing, correctly noting there is less red tape at the local and state levels than at the federal level. The point? Get the supplies however you can and as soon as you can, and dont wait on us because the federal bureaucracy will slow progress.
I actually dont think the Times does much damage anymore, because pretty much everyone understands how viciously partisan and unreliable it is. One question that millions have asked is, if Donald Trump does so many terrible things, why do leftists constantly have to make up things he didnt actually do?
How could Germany close any borders, except that it shares with Switzerland? I thought all EU countries had to have open borders with other EU countries?
Mara Gay is a shill for MSNBC with a hate-Trump agenda.
This is news?
I thought it was SOP.
It would be headlines if they actually told the truth.
Dont know for sure but I would guess they declare a national emergency.
The EU would do best to say nothing unless they want a raft of countries going for the Exit.
THE TIMES is NOT called “THE NEW YORK SLIMES” without just cause. = LIES are their “stock in trade”.

Well, the Daily Mail continues to spew the lies it is fed. Unfortunately, many sheeple get their information from such hate rags rather than watching the conferences themself.
All the news that fits our agenda. If it doesnt well make something up.

Trump is a target for the media. They have finally found a cause that they can drive and they are hammering away. Personally, I think much of this is BS.
Some kind of emergency waiver rule exists. If you show up at the border now....regional state police are there and monitor the road or autobahn point. Huge drain on resources...they weren’t manned for a long-term mission like this.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they extend this at the end of four weeks, and ask German military to assist in border-control. Cops racking up a serious amount of over-time hours.
This the trivial mistake reporter. Brian Williams best friend right?
All of those Dems
All of the 0bama holdovers.
Working 24/7 to thwart VSG President Trump efforts to close the boarders to those who can o use harm, are looking criminally stupid.
Send all 0bama traitors to Club Gitmo!
Remember this fact folks, the NYT is the “paper of record” that during WWII REFUSED to report on the NAZI’s genocide of the Jewish people. They flat out refused to report on it.
This should tell everyone all they need to know about the sort of people that control and who are hired by that fish wrap.
Do you EVER tell the truth?
Let us help you with the rest 👇🏻
We will be backing you, but try getting it yourselves. Point of sales, much better, much more direct if you can get it yourself.— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) March 16, 2020
The President explained in pretty good detail exactly what he meant.

“We will be backing you, but try getting it yourselves. Point of
sales, much better, much more direct if you can get it yourself.”
It’s not scientific by any means, but from my reading on the ‘net and conversations with people around here, my guess is that about a third or more of Americans are convinced this media frenzy over the virus is the Dems’ latest “get Trump” tactic after impeachment failed.
