Jan. 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.” — Trump in a CNBC interview.

Oh, sure. Of course. Especially now that we know injecting disinfectant will clean the lungs and shoving a UV device up our butts will take care of the rest of the virus. Wow. We're golden.

I thought I was going to die of laughter when I saw that this morning. He has absolutely no clue that he is helping to kill off "his" votes by suggesting such stupid things.
ETA: when the doctors were talking on the news last night about the emergency rooms are still open for people with actual medical emergencies, I somehow don't think they were envisioning people bleaching and burning their lungs out.

If you lay in the sun with your mouth open, the sun will shine into your lungs and clear that shit right up.

I am now at the point where I actually hope all of his supporters will guzzle a gallon of industrial-strength bleach, saying, "I'm with you, Mr. President! I'm with you!"

I think he should go back to holding rallies. Lots of Big Beautiful rallies in indoor venues with masses of his cult members there. And he should shake lots of hands and give lots of hugs!

Is he handling the virus correctly? He daily reality show briefings say differently....I think most conservatives wish he would STFU. White House could alter virus briefings to limit Trump role
For weeks, advisers have been urging the president to scale back his appearances at the briefings, saying that he should come before the cameras only when there is major news or a positive development to discuss, according to the officials. Otherwise, they suggested, he should leave it to Vice President Mike Pence and health officials to take the lead. www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/white-house-could-alter-virus-briefings-to-limit-trump-role/ar-BB13adLn?ocid=spartandhp

60,000 is now not my lower estimate. 75,000 is.

60,000 is now not my lower estimate. 75,000 is. 60k Already baked on. Look at serious/critical cases. If half die, we are well over 60h. Think 90,000 is now a not unreasonable guess

Three months in -- after a million infections, nearly 60,000 US deaths and a potential economic depression -- it's still unclear whether President Donald Trump grasps the gravity of the coronavirus crisis. The man who said he knew more about ISIS than the generals and claimed to have stunned dumfounded aides with his scientific acuity prides himself on a mystical instinct to make right calls. Yet Trump's leadership in the worst domestic crisis since World War II has consistently featured wrong, ill-informed and dangerous decisions, omissions and politically fueled pivots. "Many very good experts, very good people too, said this would never affect the United States," Trump told CNN's Jim Acosta on Tuesday. "The experts got it wrong. A lot of people got it wrong and a lot of people didn't know it would be this serious." Such comments are typical of Trump's consistent habit of blaming others for his own poor judgments. www.cnn.com/2020/04/29/politics/donald-trump-coronavirus-politics-pence/index.html

Given that the task force to re-open businesses doesn't include any public health experts, it is pretty clear he either doesn't understand the gravity of the situation or he just doesn't care.

I question if President Trump can care. Is he psychologically capable? I don't think so. Which, IM (not so)HO, is one of the reasons I think he should not be reelected.

Remember when the old man fell off the stage at Mar-a-Lago and cracked his skull open? Trump was very worried...about the blood on his marble floor.

It's all about re-election with trump. Nothing more-nothing less. Yes. Heard on the tv tubes this am that trump wants China investigated to see if they deliberately planted the Coronavirus to make sure trump didn’t win re-election. Because every thing is always about trump. Pretty sure if they did that they would plant the lethal virus in some country other than their own, but whatever. Trump is the bigly genius.

No.. because if they did that then everyone would 100% know China was guilty. They had to make it just as lethal for them to throw Trump off the scent. It's like you people don't know how conspiracy theories work. As someone who has worked in research for 13 years when I think about everything that had to go right (or wrong if you believe the escaped bat conspiracy theory) for this to actually be true AND not have it leaked before it happened the mental gymnastics are astounding.
