Sadly true, and it is has been compounded by the "it's just the flu" bros, that unfortunately have been more prevalent on the conservative side of the debate (and seem to love to post on Free Republic).

Trump was pretty careful not to actually say it was the flu or minimize it too much, but people like Limbaugh look like idiots, and the left is already making political ads out of it. de Blasio and other lefty New York officials have been just as bad, but it won't matter during the presidential election.

Unlike 9/11, and other previous crises for the country, there hasn't been a single second of unity, it is all about seizing the opportunity to gain more political power. I wish conservatives understood that early, and were a little more "conservative" in their rhetoric about the risks of this disease.

It’s quite obvious the MSM has finished their behind-the-scenes script writing and are unloading an avalanche of “Trump’s fault” garbage today.

It’s so pathetic. They’re acting as if a single misstep is the cause of every death. Of course, anything is a misstep without any evidence whatsoever.

I suppose we all knew that this was going to be a sh*t-show, just another opportunity for the media to revel in their hate. ...but I believe all in vain, I *hope* most of the American people have awoken to this garbage by now.

Good reflexes! I had to get almost past the “B” before I even could step on the brakes.

Well said. Conservatives have actually been the most cavalier in their attitude towards this disease.

Jonathan Allen was the communications director for Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Enough said.

These azzholes know the peak is coming and the next phase is already scripted as we will hit the other side of the curve.

Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif. “Donald Trump is incapable of handling a bad day, let alone a protracted pandemic.”

Democratic California Rep. Eric Swalwell suggested that the U.S. government could use nuclear weapons on its own citizens if they fight back against firearm confiscation.

Lest we forget about Democrat political operative Jonathan Allen.

Why POLLUTICO let Jonathan Allen come back - POLITICO
https://www.politico.com/story/2010/02/why-politico-let-jonathan-allen-come-back-033253

...After he had been here about a month, we gave Allen what we thought would be good news: We wanted him to join us as a regular staff writer, with some extra money to boot. But Allen had other ideas and told us, to our dismay, that he was thinking of leaving journalism. After some more discussion, it became clear he was dreaming not merely of an exit from journalism but of an entrance into a new career as a [Democrat Party] Capitol Hill political operative.

Allen listened politely, but it became obvious he didn’t care much what we thought (see above re: ambitious, curious, contrarian and headstrong). His mind was made up. A few days after he left POLITICO, we learned that he had signed on with the political action committee of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.). Oh, well. Win some, lose some.

It was a couple of weeks ago that we heard from Allen again. After a month on the job, he decided he had made a mistake. He concluded that his talents and temperament were those of a journalist Democrat Party Media operative, not an operative. He wanted to come back to POLITICO, if we would have him...

1. wondering what’s even the purpose of posting this? The news media is biased. The news media hates Trump. The news media hates us. Those are big reveals!

2. perhaps next time post it in full so we don’t even have to click on the NBC site and give them hits. Because clicks for the enemy is precisely what you invite with your post.

I hope so because they just Comcast just jacked up the price due to franchise fee and taxes went up. I may not afford it this month. Also if your behind even by 5 bucks they shut off your service. I would cut the cord but my TV is old and it is has no streaming capability.

So what radio host Rush Limbaugh said matters but when Joe Biden says banning flights from China is xenophobic or the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi says don’t be scared about coronavirus, Come to China town... wont matter? Nice try!

Fortunately, we have you and the other FEARbros on Fear Republic to complete the job of the destruction of the American economy that the far left and the news media couldn’t have accomplished by themselves.
