Garcetti: I would have acted sooner if Trump hadn't downplayed virus

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti (D) said on Sunday that he would have responded differently to the coronavirus outbreak if President Trump had not downplayed its threat earlier this year.

Garcetti said on CNN's "State of the Union" that he would have taken action earlier, and saved lives in the process, if Trump had publicly shared what he said privately to journalist Bob Woodward.

“We were the first city to close things down, the first city to offer widespread testing. But we had to go it alone. And we heard that consistently. That's up to the states. That's up to the local governments,” Garcetti said.

OFFS! Or does he mean he would have kneeled at the feet of #bm sooner. The ‘padermonium’ is confusing.

“OMG, these people are insane.”

Of course they are, they’re Democrats.

Yes. We live in interesting times where reality has been bent, twisted, and altered because of one man. Donald J. Trump.

He thinks we forgot Pelosi and Gov. Cuomo and Mayor DeBlasio, and other democrats claiming there was nothing to fear and to come to Chinatown and NYC and so on. Let’s go to the videotape.

Sorry. Not insane, purely evil.

Since Bill Clinton (not his fault, everybody’s doing it, all husbands are adulterers, everybody has sinned, Monica tempted him and he is just a man) the Dems have always blamed someone else and refused to take responsibility.

Dems lack character. Honestly, think about the relatives and associates and acquaintances you have who are Dems. Remember their lying, cheating and serious flaws. They have low character.

I refuse to associate with any of them, but those of you who do are kidding yourselves and projecting your good qualities onto them, like the hostages who think “if I were doing that I would want to be reasoned with and not do it.” Sorry.

Funny, I remember Trump sounded the concerns at the State of the Union, only to have a copy of his speech demonstrably ripped apart by Pelosi. I also remember his banning flights from China, only to be met with accusations of “naziism.”

After all of that back-patting, Garcetti is going to need cortisone shots in his shoulder and elbow joints.
