WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic super PAC Priorities USA said on Thursday it planned to expand its use of an advertisement critical of President Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic despite the Trump re-election campaign’s efforts to stop it.

Trump’s campaign on Wednesday said it had sent cease-and-desist letters to local television stations that were running the ad in Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin - all expected to be swing states critical in November’s presidential election - because of what it considers a false assertion that Trump referred to the virus as a hoax.

It threatened litigation if stations refused to pull the ad.

Oh my, with a presidential popularity of 60%, and at the first hint that the Coronavirus will not work for many months to make American TOTALLY dependent on givernment, the Lefty Socialista Ashaoles are whackily cranking up their jingoistic rhetoric of totalitarian hatred.

Good.

I love it when these caterwauling deep state liberal fascists work so hard to dig their own holes so deep they will never get out.

Watch them bend each other over and bang themselves senseless while engaged in primal scream.

Yeah, we want THAT running the country.

Swift, truthful, and forceful retaliation is needed. As in full body slam.

Agreed. And when considering that the media’s approval numbers are well underwater, why should we try to stop these people from more of their silly, petty antics?

Why aren’t these people being arrested and prosecuted in a time of declared National Crisis?

To his credit, Trump completely reversed himself on all his messaging on the virus, tacitly admitting he’d been completely wrong for at least two months of downplaying the threat.

It takes a big man to admit he’d wasted two months when we could have been preparing to confront this threat instead saying it was a mild flu and would just go away.

The Democrats tried the same with a Trump Tweet: Democrats Demand Removal of Trump Tweet Showing Pelosi Rip Up SOTU Speech

Didn't work for them then. It isn't going to work for us now.

IMHTHO, the communist RATs are behind this whole virus BS to start with. Dunno how, but they are and it somehow got out of hand and is much, much worse than they thought...worldwide.
The Chinese have bought and paid for the DNC and the monica media. Somehow, these evil POSs are in collusion. Too bad the real truth can’t be released to the “unwashed masses” for once.

And...? Who cares? They are spending the dumb rat’s money for nothing. Kind of like paying their consultants to keep them solvent in this crisis like THE BILL pays small businesses to keep paying their workers to keep them solvent.

“It takes a big man to admit he’d wasted two months “

Nice try mole. He did not “waste two months” a-hole. I won’t even waste my laying out the truth. Well you have revealed what the rat narrative is going to be. so thanks for that and go back to your DU safe space and bring Joe a coloring book.

So it’s a flu that’s above average on seriousness. The danger still comes nowhere close to justifying the hysteria. People are even getting symptomless cases.

It takes a small man to make that unsubstantiated claim.

Dec. 31, 2019, China told the WHO that they had a problem with Covid.

Jan. 31, 2020, Trump put a travel ban on foreign nationals who had been to China in the last 14 days, from coming into the US.

For Gods sake Trump!Stop whining like a bitch and punch back! Go after Sloe Joe and Nobamas response in their pandemic. They had more dead children, just children in their pandemic then we have overall in this one before they even took action.

Trump is blamed for quick response and for slow response. He is a punching bag for the media. Not sure how he continues to survive the anger lies and bias.
