This is out of control!
Could be looking at 5,000 confirmed deaths in a week and this is what the President is on about, and his damn cult suck it all in.President Ellipsis said:

Welcome to the Covfefe-19 Lottery; Do you feel lucky?
But which numbers, Mr. third person?

What a bit of bad luck having the least competent US president in history having to deal with a national crisis of this magnitude. I feel sorry for the Americans. Not the Americans who voted for Trump. They can go and get fucked more than ever before now.

Uh...yeah, I'm sure Clownstick is smarter than all those automotive engineers and REAL corporate executives as well...I wonder how fast the Dotard could bankrupt a car company if he ran it.

Here is a timeline of Trump’s comments on coronavirus:
Feb. 7 (tweet): ”… as the weather starts to warm & the virus hopefully becomes weaker, and then gone.”
Feb. 10: “I think the virus is going to be — it’s going to be fine.”
Feb. 14: “We have a very small number of people in the country, right now, with it. It’s like around 12. Many of them are getting better. Some are fully recovered already. So we’re in very good shape.”
Feb. 19: “I think it’s going to work out fine. I think when we get into April, in the warmer weather, that has a very negative effect on that and that type of a virus. So let’s see what happens, but I think it’s going to work out fine.”
Feb. 24 (tweet): “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. … Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
Feb. 25: “You may ask about the coronavirus, which is very well under control in our country. We have very few people with it, and the people that have it are … getting better. They’re all getting better. … As far as what we’re doing with the new virus, I think that we’re doing a great job.”
Feb. 26: “Because of all we’ve done, the risk to the American people remains very low. … When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero. That’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”
Feb. 28: “I think it’s really going well. … We’re prepared for the worst, but we think we’re going to be very fortunate.”
Feb. 28: “It’s going to disappear. One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”
Feb. 28: “This is their new hoax.”
March 4: “Some people will have this at a very light level and won’t even go to a doctor or hospital, and they’ll get better. There are many people like that.”
March 9 (tweet): “So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!”
March 10: “And it hit the world. And we’re prepared, and we’re doing a great job with it. And it will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”
March 11: “I think we’re going to get through it very well.”
March 12: “It’s going to go away. ... The United States, because of what I did and what the administration did with China, we have 32 deaths at this point … when you look at the kind of numbers that you’re seeing coming out of other countries, it’s pretty amazing when you think of it.”
March 15: “This is a very contagious virus. It’s incredible. But it’s something that we have tremendous control over.”
March 16: “If you’re talking about the virus, no, that’s not under control for any place in the world.”
March 17: “I’ve always known this is a, this is a real, this is a pandemic … I’ve felt that it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic.”

Apparently, higher fuel efficiency is "political correctness". What a dumbass.

It's a mystery. They should also make them fly. Why don't they make them fly? It's political correctness gone mad.

We really need to see his taxes after the stimulus pay-out.

The real boondoggle is that Trump is supporting price gouging on pandemic-related medical supplies.
A real President would have long since invoked the Defense Production Act and ordered Companies to sell the required products in bulk to the Federal Government in one large purchase/requisition. Instead, he is setting up states to make competitive bids against each other, the fed, and even foreign countries to drive prices through the roof. Once again, Companies that donate to the Trump campaign are the "winners" and American citizens are the losers.

Strangely appropriate. Might make a comeback with a few additions to the definition.

Ivanka Trump apparently was hoisting the economy of the US on her back, creating 15 million jobs!
Now while Trump likely likes to think of Ivanka "on her back", this seems a bit much for even Trump to... okay fine... this seems like a completely normal thing for Trump to say.

Hmm... can't seem to get the video embedded.

Yeah, that was a funny one. FFvC sharted out a 14 million job number 6 months ago for Ivanka, so it was an easy 1 million in the last 6 months.

Trump claims he, not governors, has authority on opening state economies
Can you imagine how right-wingers and fox news heads would explode if Obama said such a thing?

We have a Constitution in name only. All it takes to game the system and shoot the Constitution full of holes is a self-proclaimed genius who says that Article Two "lets me do anything I want" and a political party who backs him to the hilt.
