Falsie needs to go. Why must we have to go through so many deplorable POS people when FR can find out the TRUTH about them lickety-spit???? WHERE ARE THE TRUMP ADVISORS AND WHY CAN’T THEY DO THE JOB FR DOES??? It’s getting OLD
I hope so. Little weasel.
LOL!
It may have been aimed at the other people pushing back rather than at the President. Fauci says Trump listens. It may have been to diminish the influence of the task force people on the other side of the argument from Fauci.
With such long-term government idiots leading us, no.
Should have fired the bastard weeks ago!!!
If he shouldn’t be blamed for anything that goes bad because of the Deep State or what have you, should he get credit for anything good that happens, or should that be similarly credited to the bureaucracy?
Donald Trump has been a good president, I will vote for him in November. But the unwillingness to accept that he made mistakes while he has been in charge of the executive branch is not a position that does a free people proud.
Donald Trump is not a god, he is just a man, and like other men makes mistakes. Here I suspect he has made several.
Do you disagree?
The day after the threatened ban, CNN did broadcast the entire briefing live. I hope it included the day that PDJT answered Acosta with a very compassionate and presidential five minute talk on the constitution and on the sadness of the Corona virus.
To be fair, it also hurt China and put them on notice.
He’s got a series of experts that tell him what and when things are needed because he can’t become a greater medical expert than these people are.
Tell us: What true, able-to-be validated mistakes did President Trump make? Remember, it’s not a “mistake” to not have sold a stock the day before the market crashes unexpectedly.
We are all ears.
Me too!
But we are not bureaucrats that have civil service rules protecting our jobs no matter how incompetent we are.
If Truman could fire MacArthur, PDJT45 can fire anyone.
Yes, make him go sit at the little kids table, small chair and all.
First, I take it your position given that you asked this question is that it is your position that he made no mistakes, that he handled the epidemic flawlessly?
The remarks below, iit seems to me, were mistakes:. (Recall that the epidemic was already so bad in China by Jan, 23 that Wuhan on that date was sealed.)
Jan. 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.”
. Jan. 30: “We think we have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five — and those people are all recuperating successfully. But we’re working very closely with China and other countries, and we think it’s going to have a very good ending for us … that I can assure you.”
Feb. 10: “We’re in great shape though. We have 12 cases — 11 cases, and many of them are in good shape now.”
Feb. 23: “We have it very much under control in this country.”
Feb. 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
Feb. 26: “So we’re at the low level. As they get better, we take them off the list, so that we’re going to be pretty soon at only five people. And we could be at just one or two people over the next short period of time. So we’ve had very good luck.”
Feb. 26: “And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”
Feb. 26: “I think every aspect of our society should be prepared. I don’t think it’s going to come to that [school closings], especially with the fact that we’re going down, not up. We’re going very substantially down, not up.”
More than 20,000 Americans have died since then. Not all of that is the president’s fault, but I reject this worshipful attitude that he can do no wrong, ever.
If people in the CDC told him that there was nothing to worry about, he should have not just blindly accepted what someone in the permanent bureaucracy told him, but should have investigated what the global rate of growth was, what it had been in previous epidemics, and not just assumed “We’re America, I’m Donald Trump, and so it’s impossible for this to be a serious problem.”
He dropped the ball on this one for a long time, although by mid-March he seemed to finally accept that it was bad. Had he accepted this earlier, it might not have been so bad.
My argument is that he shouod have taken it smore seriously earlier, and shouldn’t have been a slave to what the bureaucrats were saying, especially since there was a lot of knowledge about how epidemics can go, and about Chinese lies, by late January.
So I have done what you asked, now it’s your tturn. Why do you think Donald Trump on this matter is beyond criticism? What can you point to that made the epidemic turn out as well as could have been possible? Why was Pres. Trump flawless, subject to no reasonable criticism? I will ask for hard evidence in this regard.
You and I will pay for his retirement . Pathetic ,
Fauci is upset because President Trump upset their pandemic apple cart. By promoting a successful therapy for coronavirus, Trump helped lower the death rate far below the model. In reality, the missing input in the model was Trump himself. The Fauci-Birx-Gates vaccine plan and lockdown should be finished.
The contact tracing horse left the barn LONG ago. Probably when the first guy in Washington arriving from China went to the ER with symptoms five days after he landed.
...and you and I will pay for it .
oops
