Continue babbling.
The virus isn’t an anti-Trump conspiracy. The coverage blaming it on Trump, and using a natural disaster to try to eliminate him, IS A CONSPIRACY. The MSM never has told the truth about Trump since 2015. They’re going to start being honest in 2020? I don’t think so, and I’m not buying it.
Now would be a good time to start to put up tariffs, tariffs on crude oil imports would be a good place to start to protect US oil production workers. That is an emergency act I would be behind.
Stephanie better tell Ted Cruz and Rep Gosar to get out of quarantine, then. They’re not helping her narrative.
Of course they are politicizing this; it’s just what Dems do. Dems politicize EVERYTHING.
Turn off your computer and take a walk. You’ve completely bought in to the Deep State/MSM narrative.
Yes, rely on the CDC, a fedgov agency with it’s head up it’s butt to save you.
No, they wouldn’t do that.
Tweet from RealDonaldTrump, 33 min. ago:
So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!
What is your point?
“We cannot stop this. We can only let it flow over us.”
Thank you for being a voice of reason. Everyone is eventually going to get exposed to this - just like the common cold. It happens every flu season with nameless cold and flu viruses - the only difference is this one has a name.
People have learned to accept the fact that nameless flu viruses are all around us, and cannot he stopped - the only recourse is to try and stay in good health to build resistance, and to avoid needless contact. But manage expectations - expect to catch a cold once in a while. And expect that, sadly, the flu can and does become deadly to those of us who are very old or very sick.
But this “cold” has a specific name, so it falls outside our normal scope of “managed expectations” and thus fears are easily triggered. If we had never learned of this virus, it is very likely that it’s spread and it’s effects would have gone largely unnoticed, statistically lost among the many cold and flu strains expected during any flu season.
But it we did learn of it, and since the Democrats “never let a good crisis go to waste”, and saw it as a perfect opportunity to try and tank the economy and make this “Trump’s Katrina”, we have a panic on our hands.
Pushing the narratives that everyone should be tested, and that Trump should be held accountable when it doesn’t happen is absurd and they know it - just another political hit job.
The Democrats and fake news should be ashamed of themselves - if they had any shame.
As for people on FR who buy into this fear mongering - wake up and smell the covfefe.
And just what should they do about this economic damage? Please suggest what cure would not be worse than non-interference.
There is a shocking collapse in demand globally. Government needs to create DEMAND, not suppress it with trade wars. Tax cuts do nothing to help this problem either.
Interest rates are as close to zero as they’ve ever been.
It’s time for federal infrastructure investment on a massive scale. Let foreigners finance an incredible improvement in US STUFF. Airports, rail, roads, fiber optic comms. The hurdle rate is 0.5% return on investment.
