Representative Jackie Speier (D-CA) complained Sunday on MSNBC that President Donald Trump was putting “his most ardent supporters at risk” by not canceling his upcoming political rallies in light of the current coronavirus outbreak.
Speier said, “I don’t think the president is capable of telling us the truth about the coronavirus. And I regret saying that. I think we have to rely on the scientists who are attempting to tell the truth even when they have to contradict the president. ”
She added, “The fact that he is not willing to cancel his various rallies suggests that he is willing to place even his most ardent supporters at risk because we’re supposed to stay six feet away from other persons in order to mitigate the exchange of those viruses. I think that he is showing, unfortunately, why he is so ill-prepared to guide our country during this time of the crisis.”
Speaking to reporters on Saturday at Mar-a-Lago, Trump said he had no plans to cancel his campaign rallies over concerns about the coronavirus.

It’s worth the risk.
It’s worth the risk.
She’s touched in the head.
A month from now? Perhaps we should be concerned.
Wasn’t the enemymedia just bragging about a Bernie ralley attended by 15,000?
This disease isn’t the horror it’s being sold as.
It is also not the panacea the Democrats are hoping will cure their problems.
Went to Monterey Bay Aquarium yesterday. Packed with parent, children and grandparents.
Went to dinner at Bubba Gumps afterward. Packed and a waiting line to get in. Food still sucked.
No one seems particularly concerned except the elderly or informed, as they should be.
...and Biden just had a rally in K.C.
Always with the fear. That’s all demonicRATS have to offer. Fear.
How many rallies has Jackie canceled?
Does this mean that the Eagles put 36,000 of their "most ardent" fans at risk by not canceling the shows?

It stopped harming the stock market so now let’s see if we can use it to break up Trump rallies.

The MSM gave their directive—”THIS IS HIS KATRINA”—and their enforcement officers in government are playing their roles very well.
This from the woman who compared abortion to getting a tooth pulled.
More RAT hypocrisy as RATS haven’t cancelled their rallies.
I agree that President Trump should NOT be shaking hands with people because who knows what evil intentions some may bring. They can shake his hand, pretending to be a supporter and give him the virus..Trump already had one scare with someone from CPAC..but to cancel rallies is RIDICULOUS..I dont see Bernie Sanders canceling anything and he had a heart attack, his risk of dying of this virus is much more than Trump’s is
She has run into the first Republican not inclined to take advice from his liberal democrat enemies. It’s refreshing.
Katrina involved a hurricane that affected many in New Orleans..this involves a VIRUS that is worldwide, you cant control a virus, it comes it comes there is nothing you can do, comparing a virus to a hurricane is RIDICULOUS
Yeah she’s real worried about the deplorables. It’s just BS statement to fan the flames in the hopes of doing more damage to the economy.
More cancel culture
