The White House Will Be Adorned By A Downright Moron

[iguanaman]

What does any of your post have to do with the exchange I replied to? Nothing. So defecting. Rather telling.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember the run up to eh 2016 election too. Caused me to distrust the media and the polls, and this has certainly tuned out to be the correct posture.

I'm not making foolish bets such as this, but since you've volunteered, I now expect you to be a man of your word.

Chicken?.....I thought so. You talk big but can't back it up. I will be reminding you of you prediction regardless but I know Trumpists have no shame.

 

[iguanaman]

January was before the directive, before it became more well known what was actually going on in China.


Note: "U.S. citizens who have visited China’s Hubei Province within 14 days before reentry to the United States will face a mandatory quarantine"

In the same timeframe, and even later, Democrats were calling the Chinese travel restriction as Xenophobic (Biden), 'Come down to China Town and mingle in the crowds' Pelosi, 'Go out on the town and don't change your life' De Blasio.

So what's your point?

This....
Health departments in four of the 10 U.S. states where airports are screening passengers for coronavirus exposure said they had not taken any people into quarantine since the new travel rules took effect on Feb. 2. Only New York State reported having four people under quarantine due to their travel history.
The mandatory quarantines are among the first in the United States in over 50 years and apply to U.S. citizens who have traveled to China’s Hubei Province, the epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic, in the last two weeks.
These are steps meant to slow down the spread. It’s not meant to hermetically seal the United States from the virus,” Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar told a press conference on Friday.
Health departments in Michigan, Texas, Virginia and Washington said they had no passengers under quarantine. Georgia said it was prepared to quarantine passengers, without providing further comment.
California and Illinois referred questions to the CDC. Officials in Hawaii and New Jersey did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

There was no follow up to even that measure. We were left defenseless and in the dark. The only people actually quarantined were the people the army flew back after flights were cancelled in China. Trump failed us like always.

No, not chicken. Just not foolish such as yourself.

Not a Trumpist, per say, I have criticism of him, sure.
But certainly not a mindless babbling issued talking point repeating leftist Democrat either.

"they had not taken any people into quarantine"
So who's failure to do so is that? You seem to want to blame the President for that. Was he the one screening people at the airports?

It is just another example of the incompetence Trump has brought to every facet of our Govt. They needed to make arrangements with Customs to fulfill their special request if they truly thought it was important. Trump did not care about anything but his optics. And any measures taken were not to disturb his reelection chances.

Would be nice if you something to back up that assertion of yours.
What are those those arrangements with Customs to fulfill their special request?

"any measures taken were not to disturb his reelection chances."
This isn't logical. Isn't this being used as one of the main political attacks from all Democrats? So how does that "not to disturb his reelection chances"?

You heard him say it...he wanted to play down the virus to avoid panic...his panic that the virus would cost him the election.

 

[Kerry Won Ohio]

You can keep your Biden and 'Hells high Harris' and the rest of the DemocRATS.

The reality is that you, and I, and everyone else on this forum are little more than sideline spectators to whatever's gonna happen.

Yeah, with the obvious difference that I can recognize an evil, mentally ill President and you can't.

 

[Integrityrespec]

When there is the potential for minority rule, which the Electoral College allows, there is always the possibility that something very bad can happen to this country.

It happened in 2000 with Bush. And just when I didn't think it was possible for a President to be worse than Bush, it happened 10 times worse with Trump's reign.

Well if we get Biden he's going to show you just how bad a President can be. He's a fool and a fool with dementia at that. His party is being heavily influenced by the extreme left wing and those that don't even like America, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Pressley, Talib. Groups like antifa and MLB that don't like America and Biden will end up listening to these groups and their leaders. Bernie, Warren, the selfish power grabbing of Pelosi. You don't think it can get worse, I'll bet it gets worse in a hurry and any recovery will be squashed. Of course the press will not tell you about the poor performance because they are leftist and controlled by socialist and communist.

 

[eohrnberger]

Yeah, with the obvious difference that I can recognize an evil, mentally ill President and you can't.

But can you recognize a mentally declining Presidential candidate?
But can you recognize a hard core leftist threat to the nation as a Vice-Presidential candidate?
I rather think not.

About Trump, I think you're full of shit, but hey, vive la difference.

 

[eohrnberger]

Avoiding public panic in a pandemic is a bad thing?

Did you vote for Trump? If so, why should I trust your opinion on how a President might perform in the future?

Because if you voted for a mentally ill racist corrupt incompetent sociopath like Trump, you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Your political opinions are meaningless, due to your lousy track record.

I don't care if Kamala Harris hands out ****ing birth control pills during Halloween. The fact is that she is too smart, with too much decency, to EVER be remotely the threat that Trump is.

You Repubs are obsessed with ideology, but you don't care about character and decency. Which is why you vote for racists and traitors who lie 20,000 times while in office like Trump.

Of course you don't agree with me. You probably like Trump's hate speech and bigotry. That's why he won the Repug nomination in the first place against the other 16 dumb ****s running. Trump was the biggest racist and the biggest asshole of them all, and that's what you all like.

Trump isn't a threat to the nation. I've indicated my criticisms of him.

Packing the SCOTUS, eliminating the Senate filibuster, destroying the economy with ideologically driven insane spending, open borders with medicalte for all (including illegal aliens) now those are threats to the nation. Harris is a hard core leftist to the left of Bernie Saunders, when you examine her Senate voting record.

You Repubs are obsessed with ideology, but you don't care about character and decency. Which is why you vote for racists and traitors who lie 20,000 times while in office like Trump.

You are projecting again.
That's a laugh coming from a lefty, when lefties continue to eat their own when those individuals don't toe the lefty ideological line.
Yet another example of accuse others of what you yourselves are guilty of.

We're not guilty of idly watching 200,000 Americans die during a pandemic and saying the virus will be gone soon. Only you Repugs worship that type of abhorrent incompetency and delusional thinking.

 

[Nickyjo]

BIden is the racist. You know it, too but your Trump hate rules all.

Yeah, Biden said immigrants are like poisonous snakes, said Mexico was sending us rapists, said blacks were responsible for 80% of homicides of whites, called countries shitholes, stuff like that.

Trump most definitely is a threat to this nation. He sucks Putin's **** every ****ing day. He's at least $450 million in debt, god knows how much he owes to Russia.

And you call me "full of shit". LOL. You're delusional, just like Trump.

List: 74 actions taken by Trump to fight virus and bolster economy
WHOLE-OF-GOVERNMENT RESPONSE

• President Trump declared a national emergency, inviting States, territories, and tribes to access over $42 billion in existing funding.
• Trump signed legislation securing $8.3 billion for coronavirus response.
• Trump signed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, ensuring that American families and businesses impacted by the virus receive the strong support they need.
• To leverage the resources of the entire government, the president created a White House Coronavirus Task Force to coordinate response.
• Vice President Pence named Dr. Deborah Birx to serve as the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator.
• The president has held multiple teleconferences with our nation’s governors to coordinate response efforts and offer his full support.
• The president has approved major disaster declarations for impacted states like New York, Washington, and California.

TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS

• In January, Trump reacted quickly to implement travel restrictions on travel from China, buying us valuable time to respond to the virus.
• The president has announced further travel restrictions on global hotspots, including Europe, the United Kingdom and Ireland, and Iran.
• American citizens returning from travel-restricted countries are being routed to specific airports, where they can be screened and isolated as needed.
• The United States reached mutual agreements with Mexico and Canada to restrict non-essential travel across our northern and southern borders.
• The administration announced it will expeditiously return aliens who cross between ports of entry or are otherwise not allowed to enter the country, as the facilities in which these aliens would be held cannot support quarantine for the time needed to assess potential cases.
• The administration raised travel warnings to their highest level for other hot spot locations, like Japan and South Korea.
• The president has expanded airport screenings to identify travelers showing symptoms and instituted mandatory quarantines.
• The State Department issued a global level 4 travel advisory, urging Americans to avoid all international travel due to the coronavirus outbreak worldwide.

Now all you have to do is ask yourself, did these things happen? Or did they not happen? i think you'll find out that the did indeed happen.

So, sorry, but you are just full of leftist miss-information and political propaganda that you keep spewing as facts.

Most of those things didn't happen very well. Hence, why I said Trump is incompetent.

EXPANDING TESTING ACCESSIBILITY....what a joke. What good does it do to test someone when it takes 2 weeks to get the test results? A person has already infected 50 other people by then. And we're still not testing nearly enough people per day.

SUPPORTING IMPACTED BUSINESSES...yeah, more bullshit. Most of that money when to Trump's rich Repug buddies. It didn't go to the small businesses that needed it. Everyone knows that....well, except for Fox News viewers.

Just the other day, Trump's idiot Chief of Staff Meadows said, "We're not going to try to control the pandemic". What the **** is that???

Like I said...Repugs worship incompetency. As long as Trump talks his usual racist shit and threatens more Hispanics, you all will be happy with his God awful performance.

Where is all the outrage about Europe’s failure to contain this disease?

Based on the graph's trend lines, it would seem the US is doing pretty well, all things considered.

Not that I'd expect you to actually read the article and study these and understand them.
The facts they contain wouldn't make it past your ideological based fact force fields surrounding your brain.

We've had a record number of COVID-19 cases during the past few days and you say we're doing well. We'll easily have well over 300,000 dead by the end of the year. Got it, dude. Great analysis. Your idiot hero Trump said the virus was going to disappear back in April. What the **** happened?

You called me "full of shit". Guess, what? -- Your opinion is worthless. You're an uninformed low information voter, just like Trump loves.

Look a little closer. The US is 182nd in deaths below a great many other countries, including Western democracies, yet to only look at the total deaths number because it supports your confirmation bias. So, yes, when compared to the rest of the nations of the world, the US is doing pretty well. The total death number is a single data point. Need to expand you view of the data for the full context.

This if from the CDC:

The time of COVID-19 high risk and high threat has passed, with this level of survival rates.

You called me "full of shit". Guess, what? -- Your opinion is worthless. You're an uninformed low information voter, just like Trump loves.

Yet, I'm the one who's posting all the citation and the data. So much for your 'uninformed low information; accusation.

If I were you, I'd be re-evaluating my information sources. MSNBC and CNN have proven themselves to not be reliable and un-biased sources.

Irrelevant data for this discussion. We have 4% of the world's population and 25% of the world's deaths. That's the bottom line.

We're talking about Trump's competence, remember? You know, the same imbecile who said COVID-19 was going to magically disappear back in April? Of course you don't want to talk about that. I wouldn't want to defend this mentally ill incompetent ****, either.

It doesn't matter "who is posting the data". The way you're interpreting the data is pure garbage.

Uh, Bush got us into a mindless, endless, pointless war. Trump did not. That alone makes Trump a much better president.

Not even Bush has caused as many American casualties as Trump.
