It isn’t hindsight when a lot of people were telling him he needed to shut things down in real time. He should make a mask mandate

Interesting...who were those people after President Obama was elected, or the people that stormed the state house in Michigan this year, or the people blocking the hospital entrance demanding states reopen! Republicans March, Protest & Many With Weapons!
He Called It A Hoax... Ge Got Rid Of The Pandemic Team...
Not sure if you’ve seen Biden’s America First platform. I feel like liberals said Trump was racist for that same thing.
Really? I thought he was referring to the media with how they handled the situation.
What would put it in the rearview? A vaccine would be a big help assuming that it's highly effective, but that is a tight time frame.
Technically, Trump called the media's bashing of Trump's minimizing the threat of COVID. I could give you a dozen quotes, but his discussion about "One day, it's going to magically go away" seems pretty much on point. Their accurate reporting of his attitude toward a global pandemic was not a hoax.
If that were to happen (& it won’t), conservatives will simply wait four years til the next election & try to retake the White House...
Yes, we’ll ***** & moan about Biden (or whoever Dems try to replace him with) but you won’t see no riots in the streets, no broken glass, no fires, no looting, etc...we don’t operate that way.
Everything IS about Trump. Don't believe me... ask Trump.
Correct. Amazing there weren’t racist base and city names and statues when obama was president.
History, who killed Lincoln, Dr. King & The Kennedy’s...or that whole KKK, Boston T-Party Thing or that Oklahoma City Bombing... was Civil War Southerns a Liberal Democratic or Liberal Republican Response?...anyway History is History!
If you mean, will a bunch of idiots "threaten" to leave the country as if anyone cared, then no, no one who votes Republican is that stupid.
My main problem with Trump's response is his off the cuff answers to questions where he combats science and logic. Fauci and the scientists are constantly correcting him or at least saying, well we disagree etc. The president should be making a good example, wearing a mask, encouraging social distancing. All ive seen from him is shifting the blame where he can and ignoring the science to make him look better. He attacks testing, he refuses to wear a mask. His followers see this and do the same. He cares more about being reelected than protecting the American people.
Early on Trump consistently down played this virus and claimed it was only the media making it a big deal. They dragged their feet early on with testing, they dragged their feet with PPE. They consistently pushed the responsibility and blame onto the governors. The only logical solution to fighting a pandemic would to have a solid national response, Trump's answer was to down play the virus, lie about tests and PPE, take no responsibility/blame, and contradict our top medical experts. Still to this day it would help if he just went on tv and said please take this virus seriously and wear a mask, etc. But instead he's hosting political rallies, and complaining about how testing is making him look bad.
He had the gall to say that the slow response was because Obama's policies and him leaving the cupbard empty.... Trump was elected in 2016. He had every opportunity to address these issues and help prevent this disaster
Threads like this are why we need sports to resume ASAP. The political turmoil and division in this country is pretty unbearable right now.
The virus may not have started as political, but the more data that come out showing it not being nearly as deadly/bad as originally thought, it is nothing but politics now. The Dems see it as a way to help Trump hang himself. He is obliging.
There was a plan. It was the pandemic playbook, it was started by W and then added to by Obama. Trump chose to throw it out and not use it because Obama had something to do with it.
Ebola happened during Obama's tenure. 11 cases, 1 death. Obama used the pandemic playbook.
I cheating is the only explanation for a Trump defeat to you then you've crafted your own reality.
