Hillary Clinton knocks Trump's coronavirus response, claims 'I would have done a better job'
Fox Business ^ | 07/03/2020 | Megan Henney

Hillary Clinton lambasted President Trump’s response to the coronavirus outbreak, accusing her one-time 2016 rival of exacerbating the economic pain of the pandemic and related shutdown.

During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that was published on Friday, Clinton argued she would have done a “better job” in managing the crisis — including preventing some of the economic damage inflicted by the virus lockdown — had she defeated Trump during the election almost four years ago.

”We wouldn’t have been able to stop the pandemic at our borders the way that Trump claimed in the beginning, but we sure could have done a better job saving lives, modeling better, more responsible behavior,” Clinton said. “I don’t think we necessarily should have had as deep an economic assault on livelihoods and jobs as we have. So I know I would have done a better job.”

It’s not the first time that Clinton has taken aim at Trump over the pandemic. Earlier this week, she said she “would have read my damn briefs” when singer and Broadway star Barbra Streisand tweeted that Clinton would not have “ignored the pandemic plans, cut the CDC and defunded the World Health Organization.”

”Can you imagine how President Hillary Clinton — a Woman with a powerful mind — would have handled this pandemic?” Streisand tweeted. “Being a mother and grandmother, she would’ve instinctively taken care of the public health of the people of the United States.” …

Bab’s can’t even discern a powerful mind from an evil heart.

WOW has she got a short memory- She excoriated the President for shutting down incoming travel from infected countries- claiming it was racism or some such idiotic nonsense0-

“Trump’s own [Department of Homeland Security] confirmed this weekend that the ban doesn’t enhance security. But it foments fear & resentment,” she wrote,

people who lie for a living often get caught lying-

[[but we sure could have done a better job saving lives, modeling better, more responsible behavior,” Clinton said.]]

Psssst- hillary- YOUR party sent infected people into nursing homes so that the elderly would get the virus and die!

Somehow, I see her sitting in front of the TV, drink in hand, and making that comment all the time, punctuated by belches.

Here’s what would have been different: travel would have continued from hotspots abroad while interstate travel quarantines would be enforced. More elderly would die in nursing homes and more hospitalized people would die on ventilators. The Hydroxychlorquine treatment would be considered a defacto snake oil and banned, while expensive and unproven boutique treatments got generous and unaccountable subsidies. Lockdowns like in Michigan and New York City would be nationally imposed and enforced with the threat of withdrawing federal stimulus payments always dangling over the heads of governors and the tech giants would be empowered to squash even more dissenting viewpoints as a means of preventing disinformation and mass hysteria during a public health crisis. The bureau of labor statistics would be compelled to pause any reporting on jobs figures until after the crisis was over, and then reconfigure how the numbers are calculated to account for what full employment looks like in the post-pandemic world. We’d probably also be seeing a lot of militia skirmish activity against the government, which would be cast as a reason to crack down on the second amendment and a convenient Boogeyman to blame if the lockdowns fail to contain the spread of the disease.

BULLSUGAR!
if the medical experts had come to her with Covid 19 concerns, she would have said “shut down the economy? That’s going to make me look bad. If some people die, they were going to die eventually anyways. GTFO of my office”
Trump listened to the doctors! Trying to do the correct thing.

Hillary Clinton knocks Trump’s coronavirus response, claims ‘I would have done a better job’

The only job she could do better is running the suicide hot line. She always seems to be so far ahead of the suicides.

“Better job covering it up! ???”

She wouldn’t have had to cover it up. It would have been a page 5 story and the deaths would have been periodically reported in an equally obscure section of the news. There would have been no world wide shut down and everything would have been fine except for all the screwed up crap that a Hillary presidency would have involved.

NAILED IT!

And that's just the internal actions. There's nothing like two or three shootin' wars to stimulate the economy, pay off the MIC, and squash dissent internally...

Well we’ll never know, will we? Because you lost. And Donald J. Trump is still your President.
