Trump Only Took Viral Outbreak Seriously After Fox News Told Him To

According to reports, Donald Trump had been whistling past the graveyard with regards to the Covid-19 outbreak, and only started taking the issue seriously when he saw Fox News talk about how it was hurting the stock market. 

What the resident doesn’t realize is that the constant lies and coverups from his administration are what’s driving the market downward. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

On CNN, Van Jones warned the Democratic Party against completely dismissing the Bernie Sanders wave of the Democratic Party, warning that they will lose against Trump if they do.

How Bernie Sanders Beat Joe Biden In The CNN Debate

Bernie Sanders needed to do more than showcase policy differences Joe Biden. Bernie needed to expose Joe. He did. Here's how. 

Forget The Gaffes, What About Biden's Lies?

The evidence is in: Joe Biden has a habit of making things up. And it’s not just wrong — it could hurt him in a general election contest against Donald Trump.

According to The Intercept's Mehdi Hasan, if you think the guy who made up getting arrested in South Africa, who falsely claimed to have marched in the civil rights movement, is the “safe” candidate against Trump, then you’re lying to yourself.

Joe Biden's Brain MELTS During Corona Virus Press Conference, Wanders Off & Biden Team PANICS!

Joe Biden gave his Coronavirus virtual press conference via zoom, where he misspeaks multiple times, and then wanders off during the conference as the Biden team is forced to put up a picture to cover him walking away.



Rep. Jim Clyburn endorsed Joe Biden despite Biden's lack of policy to assist black, poor, students or middle-class families. Tim Black calls it out.

 

Trump Rejected Coronavirus Testing To Help Re-Election

"The U.S. government's response to the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak has been "much, much worse than almost any other country that's been affected," Ashish Jha, who runs the Harvard Global Health Institute, told NPR on Thursday. "I still don't understand why we don't have extensive testing. Vietnam! Vietnam has tested more people than America has." 

Without testing, he added, "you have no idea how extensive the infection is," and "we have to shut schools, events, and everything down, because that's the only tool available to us until we get testing back up. It's been stunning to me how bad the federal response has been."

Trump Is Melting Down, Imagines Journalists Trying Infect Him With Coronavirus

Reports are that Donald Trump thinks journalists will intentionally contract coronavirus and then get close to him on Air Force One to make him sick.

 

By Red Painter

Guys, we are getting perilously close to Howard Hughes level of paranoia and germaphobia. Towards the end of his life, Hughes spent most of his time laying in bed in darkened hotel rooms, he wore tissue boxes on his feet and he burned his clothes if someone near him was sick. Are we close to this sort of meltdown? If reports are true, we may be getting there.

Gabriel Sherman (Vanity Fair) put out a very disturbing report today that showed just how deep Trump's paranoia is getting. Reports are that Trump thought he could control the coronavirus story with his typical lies, deception and bluster. Seeing his typical methods of disinformation be battered by evidence and science has deeply angered and panicked him. He needs a person to attack. Germs can't be attacked. They can't be belittled via tweet. They do not even have a Twitter account!

A former West Wing staffer told Sherman: “He is trying to control the narrative and he can’t."

Trump still continues to tweet his feelings. Mainly about how great the stock market is and how low the number of infected are (because he won't test anyone, but that is besides the point). He continues to be angry that his staff aren't controlling the news cycle more. Larry Kudlow isn't calming the markets enough for him. Kellyanne Conway can't get her Alternative Facts straight.Trump himself can't even get his stories straight.

Trump even told aides that he’s "afraid journalists will try to purposefully contract coronavirus to give it to him on Air Force One", which is beyond bananas. This would require someone to INTENTIONALLY infect themselves or get infected accidentally and then intentionally go into work, thereby infecting not only Donald Trump, but all the White House staff and other pool reporters. I do not know anyone that hates Donald Trump enough to actually do that.

Twitter had...thoughts:

One of the many levels of bizarre in this whole thing is the idea that a journalist would be willing to risk their own life by "purposefully contracting coronavirus" in order to find a way to give it to Trump on AF1. I mean, WHAT??? https://t.co/Hw08raRKDG

Matt Gaetz who was exposed to coronavirus at CPAC and is supposedly in self-quarantine was spotted boarding Air Force One today.

If @realDonaldTrump gets the virus, it won’t be from journalists. It’ll be from his right wing bedfellows. https://t.co/SB42hCnm43

resident Trump told his aides that journalists will intentionally try to contract Coronavirus in order to spread it to him on Air Force One. Anyone with a cough is now banned from the White House.

This is not a joke tweet.

Trump is so batshit crazy he thinks journalists are purposely trying to contract the Coronavirus so they can spread it on Air Force One . Trump has now entered the Howard Hughes stage of his insanity.

— Christopher Bouzy (@cbouzy) March 9, 2020

In reality Donald Trump will most likely get the CPAC coronavirus from one of his GOP sycophants. Period.

Good riddance, Chris Matthews, MSNBC's sexist blowhard

By David Shankbone – Own work, CC BY 3.0, Link

It's a sad day for those who enjoy watching flecks of spittle appear on the mouth corners of bloviating news personalities. Chris Matthews (74) has "retired" from MSNBC after over 20 salivary years as a hot take opinion spewer and conductor of condescending interviews with women. The straw that broke the blonde camel's back was likely to have been this recent article in GQ by Laura Bassett that describes a number of incidents highlighting  Matthews' sexist behavior, putting him in the league of misogynists like Bill O'Reilly:

Matthews has a pattern of making comments about women’s appearances in demeaning ways. The number of on-air incidents is long, exhausting, and creepy, including commenting to Erin Burnett, for example, “You’re a knockout...it’s all right getting bad news from you,” while telling her to move closer to the camera. Behind the scenes, one of Matthews’s former producers told The Daily Caller in 2017 that he allegedly rated his female guests on a numerical scale and would name a “hottest of the week,” like a “teenage boy.” In 1999, an assistant producer accused Matthews of sexual harassment, which CNBC, the show's network at the time, investigated. They concluded that the comments were "inappropriate," and Matthews received a “stern reprimand,” according to an MSNBC spokesperson.

Chris Matthews Out At MSNBC

Chris Matthews announced his abrupt retirement from MSNBC Monday night after more than two decades at the network.

The MSNBC mainstay made the stunning announcement at the start of Monday’s night edition of Hardball, a show that has for years been a staple of the network’s politics programming. It also became a thorn for MSNBC brass in recent weeks as Matthews was accused of sexual harassment and came under fire for his often out-of-touch commentary.

“Let me start with my headline tonight,” Matthews said. “I’m retiring. This is the last Hardball on MSNBC.”

“After conversations with MSNBC I decided tonight would be my last Hardball, so let me tell you why,” Matthews said. “The younger generations out there are ready to take the reins. You see them in politics, in the media, in fighting for the causes.”



“A lot of them have to do with how we talk to each other,” he continued. “Compliments on a woman’s appearance that some men, included me, might have once incorrectly thought were okay, were never okay. Not then and certainly not today, and for making such comments in the past I’m sorry.”

After a commercial break Matthews had left the Hardball set, with a stunned Steve Kornacki hosting the show in his stead. MSNBC told Mediaite a rotating cast of anchors will fill in for Matthews until a permanent replacement is selected.

Critics called on Matthews to resign or be fired after he compared Bernie Sanders’ recent victory in the Nevada caucuses to the Nazi defeat of the French during World War II. The comment prompted private complaints to MSNBC from senior Sanders staffers and a rare on-air apology from Matthews himself.

That apology did little to stanch the criticism, as calls for his firing were renewed after a combative interview with Elizabeth Warren was decried as sexist. The interview prompted journalist Laura Bassett, a frequent MSNBC guest, to allege in an op-ed that Matthews made sexist and belittling comments to her off the air.

“Why haven’t I fallen in love with you yet?” Bassett said Matthews told her. “Keep putting makeup on her, I’ll fall in love with her.”

Matthews, who is retiring from the network at 74, was left out of MSNBC’s coverage of the South Carolina primary on Saturday.

In 1999, he was formally reprimanded by CNBC after a female staffer accused him of making inappropriate comments. He made a series of inappropriate comments throughout his time at MSNBC, including an ill-advised joke told to Hillary Clinton about a “Bill Cosby pill” in 2016.
