If the president* did everything so perfect, a rating of ten, a very good job, we have it very well under control, we have very little problem in this country at this moment five, the travel ban stopped it, we pretty much shut it down coming in from China, etc, etc, etc, why is he now spending so much energy on blame shifting?
His message was clear: Coronavirus is a small problem, and it is getting smaller.
Is it because he knows it wasn’t and isn’t? Has he finally realized his bullsht isn’t messaging well and he is now forced to default to his favorite defense, blame someone else, anyone else.
Just wait, his next move will be “CHY-NAH released it on purpose to attack us” and all the little trump cultists will fall in line. What a pathetic lying piece of sht.

So the WHO, that had no credibility with the WH, many more and smarter US advisors to the President. No Orangutan Jesus cuts the WHO funding because in January they did not report to the WH the magnitude of the COVID problem. They are China-centric and why should I.listen to Roger Daltrey Cheeto says, they are the problem that we are here today, the WHO, you guys all remember that. The CDC, NIH, CIA nor any other alphabet office told Donny about how bad the Coronavirus could be. Dammit, he was depending on the WHO! And who wouldn't?!

Maybe next time he will listen to U2.

The turning point for me was when he suggested that people go to work while ill in early March.

With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have deep concerns whether America’s generosity has been put to the best use possible,” Trump continued. “The reality is that the W.H.O. failed to adequately obtain, vet, and share information in a timely and transparent fashion. The world depends on the W.H.O. to work with countries to ensure that accurate information about international health threats is shared in a timely manner, and, if it’s not, to independently tell the world the truth about what is happening.”

“The W.H.O. failed in this basic duty and must be held accountable,” Trump continued. “The W.H.O. Failed to investigate credible reports from sources in Wuhan that conflicted directly with the Chinese government’s official accounts. There was credible information to suspect human to human transmission in December 2019, which should have spurred the W.H.O. to investigate and investigate immediately. Through the middle of January, it parroted and publicly endorsed the idea that there was not human to human happening despite reports and clear evidence to the contrary.”

How long before the anti American left starts accusing the White House of inflating the initial
Covid 19 Death estimates to downplay America’s successful measures, Led by Trump, in combatting Covid 19?

The WHO has zero to do with US policy. The president* had ample intelligence from his own agencies and as is his custom he ignored it. He is scapegoating which is what incompetent people do.
The prick is demanding what he himself can not deliver except in his fantasy world, perfection.

“Anyone who wants a test can get a test” round two.
https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/14/health/coronavirus-antibody-tests-scientists/index.html

Prominent scientists have bad news for the White House about coronavirus antibody tests - CNN

"We have made great progress with the antibody testing, fantastic progress," Trump said at a media briefing April 5.
Five days later, Vice President Mike Pence said at a media briefing that "very soon we will have an antibody test that Americans will be able to take to determine whether they ever had the coronavirus."

There are several layers of issues with the antibody tests.
First, the US Food and Drug Administration relaxed its rules, and now companies can sell antibody tests without submitting validation data that shows they actually work.
The American Public Health Lab Association says that has resulted in "crappy" tests flooding the market.
"It's like the wild, wild West out there -- or wild East," said association CEO Scott Becker, a reference to the fact that at least half the companies making these tests are in China.
Becker said that in conference call Tuesday that FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn said antibody tests would undergo scientific review by the National Cancer Institute.
There has been concern that some of the tests might confuse the coronavirus causing the current pandemic with one of several coronaviruses that cause the common cold.

There are plenty of ex-trump WH Communications Directors and Press Secretaries who are more than qualified in the art of propaganda.

A little truth serum. You should read the whole article. Yamiche Alcindor of PBS believes trump has been so angry lately because this investigative piece lays bare his failures.

He Could Have Seen What Was Coming: Behind Trump’s Failure on the Virus


But dozens of interviews with current and former officials and a review of emails and other records revealed many previously unreported details and a fuller picture of the roots and extent of his halting response as the deadly virus spread:

  • The National Security Council office responsible for tracking pandemics received intelligence reports in early January predicting the spread of the virus to the United States, and within weeks was raising options like keeping Americans home from work and shutting down cities the size of Chicago. Mr. Trump would avoid such steps until March.

  • Despite Mr. Trump’s denial weeks later, he was told at the time about a Jan. 29 memo produced by his trade adviser, Peter Navarro, laying out in striking detail the potential risks of a coronavirus pandemic: as many as half a million deaths and trillions of dollars in economic losses.

  • The health and human services secretary, Alex M. Azar II, directly warned Mr. Trump of the possibility of a pandemic during a call on Jan. 30, the second warning he delivered to the president about the virus in two weeks. The president, who was on Air Force One while traveling for appearances in the Midwest, responded that Mr. Azar was being alarmist.

  • Mr. Azar publicly announced in February that the government was establishing a “surveillance” system in five American cities to measure the spread of the virus and enable experts to project the next hot spots. It was delayed for weeks. The slow start of that plan, on top of the well-documented failures to develop the nation’s testing capacity, left administration officials with almost no insight into how rapidly the virus was spreading. “We were flying the plane with no instruments,” one official said.

  • By the third week in February, the administration’s top public health experts concluded they should recommend to Mr. Trump a new approach that would include warning the American people of the risks and urging steps like social distancing and staying home from work. But the White House focused instead on messaging and crucial additional weeks went by before their views were reluctantly accepted by the president — time when the virus spread largely unimpeded.

On March 3rd, trump shouldn't have been downplaying the dangers of COVID-19 infected people going to work.

After attacking Trump's coronavirus-related China travel ban as xenophobic, Dems and media have changed tune

Welcome aboard the Trump Train:clap:
Biden never said the travel ban (which wasn’t a ban) was xenophobic and he never issued an apology, something trump often falsely claims about people. He stated that Trump has a record of "hysterical xenophobia" and "fear mongering” which is 100% true, remember “CHAY-NAH virus” and Mexican invasions? The fake ban was ineffective and too late since the virus already infecting the US was a mutated strain coming in from Europe.
At the time trump himself was praising China’s response and he delayed taking action because he was more afraid of failed trade negotiations and the economy than dead Americans.

"They're also paying us 25% or $250 billion in tariffs. So we're taking in -- wait a minute -- we're taking in billions of dollars for China, from China.”

:floor:trump still confuses Americans with the Chinese. I guess he believes all the American businesses paying tariffs are run by Chinese Nationals.:rolling:

Trump’s mind is so weak and feeble he can’t remember what he said publicly about funding a couple of weeks ago. The man needs meds. Sad.

Trump said Tuesday that he "hated" a provision in the $2.2 trillion pandemic relief bill that provided $25 million to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington. He blamed Democrats for the provision.

trump defended the Kennedy Center funding the day the Senate passed the relief bill, March 25. He said then that "they do need some funding," since "the Kennedy Center has suffered greatly because nobody can go there."
"I'll tell you what: I approved that." And he said, "I'm a fan of that." He proceeded to compliment the Kennedy Center, saying that "they do a beautiful job."

prsident* Dotard’s deteriorating brain is having trouble remembering the warnings he was given.

"In all fairness to previous administrations, nobody ever thought anything like this was going to happen.”
DJT
In reality there is documentation his own people and the US intelligence community and public health experts have been warning him for years that the country was at risk from a pandemic. Experts had also warned that the country would face shortages of critical medical equipment, such as ventilators, if a pandemic occurred.

:floor:You’re the anti-Nostradamus. I have previously posted a link on experts questioning trump’s projections which you responded to.
Ignoring warnings then publicly downplaying a pandemic is as anti-American as it gets.

trump said he was "authorizing each individual governor of each individual state to implement a reopening and a very powerful reopening plan of their state.”
:floor:“Authorizing” an authority he doesn’t possess. What a shameless dickhead.
