Excellent news for all of us and Google shareholders.

[Retrofitted]

So is the left going to boycott Google cuz they’re working with Orange Man? Oh, what I would give to see that!

[George from New England]

I dont’ and won’t trust google with any of my personal info, let alone my medical info.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Same.

... it’s gonna be very quickly done, unlike websites of the past,...

Nice subtle swipe at 0bozocare and the idiots who tried to implement it.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

1,700 engineers working on it? What is it going to be?

[old-ager]

I wish people would not refer to them as engineers.

[AndyTheBear]

It is good that Trump is praising Google on this. The last thing we need is political division when lives are on the line. And this kind of praise for an obviously left leaning company will help make the outspoken TDS crowd look crazier than they already do to the common person who is concerned about serious matters.

Even better news for Microsoft shareholders.

As a mechanical engineer, I couldn’t agree more. But I never got my license, so strictly technically speaking, I’m not an engineer, either.

I do wish they would refer to them correctly: “ex coal miners.”

There are engineers working at google though. What else would you call them?

[bigbob]

Indeed, although I’m counting the minutes til some dipwad comes on MSNBC to say Trump is colluding with Google!

[Pollard]

code monkeys

[frogjerk]

Love it

[gibsonguy]

Google has a LOT of trump hating snowflakes l wonder how they will react?

[mosaicwolf]

"I do wish they would refer to them correctly: “ex coal miners.”

Now that is funny! Good one!

[bigdaddy45]

Hahahahaha. I actually burst out laughing when I read your post. It is way too late. Google already knows more about you than you could imagine

[libertylover]

Google did not immediately respond to Reuters request for comment.

Reuters' request: Google, what the hell are you doing helping Donald f****** Trump? Don't you know this might actually REDUCE the number of people who contract the virus? Call us immediately!
