President Trump: The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries, Trump tweeted. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!
This is an additional amount to the BILLIONS already spent on preparedness and treatment.
I’m good with this. And to the whiners who say that Trump is just now getting engaged, where the heck have YOU BEEN for the past three months?!
He’s been engaged and PROACTIVE since DECEMBER!
I am far more scared of what crap the democrats will craft for the crisis. What are they going to stuff into it?
Then Trump vetoes it due to their towering greediness!
Democrats I hate thee! Stop your insanity and WORK WITH THE PRESIDENT IN TIME OF CRISIS.
