Trump has the experts with him on the platform and turns the microphone over to them many many times. Even if his role is being a cheer leader he gets criticized for that too. The fact is he is going to get criticized (and many times hypocritically) from those on the left who hate him for anything he says or does just because he is the one saying and doing it.

Living secretly inside many on the left's minds are communist dictators wanting to get out and rule over the masses. The coronavirus has brought it out especially with this governor. Although she has her fans...those who look to the govt and the nanny state as their savior.

Scientific misconduct with the VA study...say it aint so. I saw first hand of their incompetence with my own experience of being hospitalized at a VA hospital and the criminal negligence my brother got at the VA hospital. This has been 10 years ago maybe they have improved I don't know. I know under Trump that incompetent hacks working at the VA can now be fired. The dentist who worked on my brother at the VA who was caught using the same dirty utensils on each of his patients never faced any consequences. The VA just sent letters out to his patients like my brother they needed to be tested for HIV, hepatitis etc. That is but one of many bad stories I know first hand about with the VA healthcare.

The 24/7 coverage of the coronavirus has frightened much of the public. I am a news junkie and I only watch a fraction of the news today because of being burned out with the non stop coverage. I don't minimize the virus as it is more contagious and deadly than normal flu. I keep my hands clean and away from my face and spacing when possible and other common sense measures but other than that I try to live my life without fear of the virus just a healthy respect of the danger of the virus which we have no vaccine for at this time. I know so many people who are panic stricken about the virus and feed on all the virus coverage on the news. For many people it will not be easy to turn the fear switch off. I disagree with those seemingly minimizing the virus as a reason we should re-open the country back up. I have no doubt this is a nasty contagious virus that China has gifted the world. I think the reason we need to open the country back up is because we have no other choice or the cure will be worse than the virus but we need to keep our guard up as we open back the country.

Insane hatred of Trump. This democrat woman on the verge of death says she was saved by hydroxychloroquine and only knew about it because of Trump speaking of it at one of his pressers. Now she is just happy to be alive and wants others to know this potentially life saving drug is available and is thankful to Trump for speaking about it. Apparently that is a bridge too far for the haters of Trump in her democrat party and she is facing censure about it. One of the worst things about the crisis we are in right now is those with TDS cannot put their hated of Trump aside just for a short time while we all fight this invisible enemy but instead snipe at and criticize every action Trump takes. These haters are so obsessed they seemingly don't care if the country fails as long as Trump fails.

There are two sides to this argument and both sides are right. This virus is worse, more contagious and more deadly than normal flu and we need to take extra precautions. On the other side if we allow the virus to take us into another Great Depression by sheltering in place too long you have to calculate the deaths over that as well as the misery that poverty like that will bring such as homelessness, food shortages, lack of jobs and income. We cannot keep printing money to finance a shelter in place. It is money we don't have as we already have a 23 trillion national debt. We need to have our health experts and economy experts in the same room and hammer out the best solution for both the health issues and economy issues and work out the best possible compromise solution. https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/04/coronavirus-kills-more-americans-in-one-month-than-the-flu-kills-in-one-year/

There’s a lot MORE to the story on the HHS director who says he was ousted over push back against hydroxychloroquine… https://therightscoop.com/theres-a-lot-more-to-the-story-on-the-hhs-director-who-says-he-was-ousted-over-push-back-against-hydroxychloroquine/

The disabled journalist has a handicap that gives him limited mobility. It is not something that makes him to wave his arms around it is something that keeps him from moving his arms. It makes no sense if Trump was mocking the journalist's disability he would be mocking him in that way.

I really don't care at all what you think.

Hopefully some good news about a second wave... https://www.foxnews.com/media/siegel-offers-positive-news-on-projected-second-wave-of-covid

Whatever. The youtube video clearly shows Trump using the same hand gestures with other people with no disabilities.

The media's 'disabled reporter' lie https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/the-medias-disabled-reporter-lie Fake News: Trump Did Not Mock Disabled Reporter And Other Lies From The Left https://www.investors.com/politics/commentary/fake-news-trump-did-not-mock-disabled-reporter-and-other-lies-from-the-left/

According to Fox News, here’s what precipitated this order: These Iranian gunships have been harassing US ships for years and now they finally have a reason to stop. Trump tweeted out the order giving Iran fair warning that if they continue this aggressive and wreckless behavior, it will cost them. Well done President Trump.

We should not allow China to be profiting off their virus they "gifted" us and the rest of the world.

Any sane person would be rooting for the drug's success. Only those who have lost all rational thought with Trump Derangement Syndrome would root for the drug to fail primarily because Trump endorsed it. What if Trump had not endorsed it? One democrat state senator in Michigan who says the drug saved her life said she would have never known to have asked about it except she heard Trump speak about it at his presser. I know of at least one testimony locally of a nurse who tested positive with the virus with the normal symptoms and the next day after given the hyrdroxychloroquine, zpack and zinc cocktail had no symptoms and was testing neg for the virus. We can't and shouldn't expect these results in every case but it does appear this cocktail is the best option to take at this time.

I always separated McCain the war hero from McCain the terrible politician. You have to respect McCain for his spending 5 years as a POW and honoring him for that but as a politician he was terrible. Trump was wrong to go after him about his POW status particularly when Trump never served in the military. Trump should have focused on his terrible politics which would be fair game.

I agree. Politics is made to mock at but you never want to mock anyone's disability.

I've been thinking about this and It depends. Most politicians are fair game and many times earn the mocking. As for Biden and his showing signs of dementia you are right as a Christian I should not be mocking that. Actually what I posted was word for word what Biden said and it was not mocking him. Without checking my prior posts I don't know if I mocked Biden before about his seemingly dementia (I don't believe I did) but if I did I was wrong as a Christian to do it.

I like that it is a non blaming non political article but that seems like a monumental amount of testing but I agree we are many times testing the wrong people. Of course if you do label anyone with any symptoms of covid19 as actually being covid19 (without knowing for sure) the numbers we use for data of covid19 cases will be skewed The article though hits on the real problem with the spread of the virus and that are the carriers without symptoms. One thing we can do right away without taking many months to implement to combat those carriers without symptoms would be a requirement we all have to wear masks when in public places meeting with other people. I haven't been wearing a mask when going into stores but I am going to from now on. I don't have any expectations it would help me not get the virus but at least I would know if I was a carrier without symptoms I was doing what I could not to give it to anyone else.

That is the cocktail combo I would go with. Not just the hydroxychloroquine but with the added zpac and zinc. We may find better options as we go down the road but that combo seems to me to be the best tool in our tool box for now in fighting the virus.

I hate to say this (because I am not fond of the idea) but the science right now backs me up. Everyone needs to be wearing a mask when around other people. The biggest problem we face with the virus spreading are those who have the virus without symptoms who are out in public spreading the virus without knowing it. Wearing a mask is not to keep the wearer from getting the virus but to help keep those with the virus without symptoms from spreading it to others. A business for example could have temperature checks every day for employees yet the one with the virus without symptoms would pass the temp check. I see stores taking steps to protect their employees such as limiting customers in stores and requiring their employees to wear masks but the truth is unless they require all customers in the store to wear masks they leave open the door to the biggest source of those spreading the virus, the ones who carry the virus without symptoms. Wearing masks have no doubt been a big reason why countries like South Korea have done well to contain the virus. There are other reasons but wearing masks is likely a big one.

Which I am very thankful about.

Or maybe Nancy Pelosi straightened them out that she needed some time off to eat designer ice cream in her luxury home while holding up legislation to help small businesses from going under?

The medical professionals haven't gotten this right either with terribly flawed models as well as our CDC expert Dr Fauci saying in late February the pandemic threat to our country was minuscule.

If we don't start opening the economy up soon we may not have much of a country left. Already unemployment funds are running out. https://www.foxbusiness.com/money/states-quickly-depleting-unemployment-funds-amid-record-shattering-surge-of-jobless-claims
