Makes me wonder if he knows more about China’s actions and intentions with this virus. I don’t think he’d use it just to deflect from our having sold it to China in 2015. I think he is laying the groundwork to tell us that China unleashed this on us intentionally.

FEMA Level 1 info...

Level 1

• Full staffing,

Support Functions and interagency liaisons

Listening to Trump speak to the press is SO REFRESHING...!

After decades of whining patronizing sniveling scared GOP politicians sucking up trying to gain favor (WHICH NEVER WORKED) it is so good to hear a stupid ridiculous question from some moron and Trump tell him “Your fake news, sit down and shut up” (essentially)

I think he calls on Jim Acosta JUST TO embarrass him AGAIN and AGAIN...

It is not a leadership look for him to point the finger back to Obama.

People are aware of the whole sequence of his presidency. They know he wanted to protect us by bringing Chinese manufacturing home—and thwarted at every turn.

His expressions and demeanor say "yes, he knows a hell of a lot more." And it is not very good.

The FDA has been pathetic to date.

He might need an FDA czar.

China is reporting 80k cases and 3.2k deaths. Italy is at 31k and 2.5. Somebody is lying and it ain’t the Italians.

VP still recommending for those with OUT symptoms to NOT test....to save on tests.

Getting data that younger people are also susceptible? Is that what I heard?

Schmickie also called for President Trump to invoke the 1950 Defense Production Act ....basically a federal takeover of the economy.....which seems excessive because President Trump has industry leaders working with him.
From Wikipedia:

The Act contains three major sections.

The first authorizes the President to require businesses to sign contracts or fulfill orders deemed necessary for national defense.

The second authorizes the President to establish mechanisms (such as regulations, orders or agencies) to allocate materials, services and facilities to promote national defense.

The third section authorizes the President to control the civilian economy so that scarce and/or critical materials necessary to the national defense effort are available for defense needs.

The Act also authorizes the President to requisition property, force industry to expand production and the supply of basic resources, impose wage and price controls, settle labor disputes, control consumer and real estate credit, establish contractual priorities, and allocate raw materials towards national defense.


He just did enact the Defense Production Act
