TRUMP on economic hit of coronavirus: "A lot of people are staying here. They're going to be doing their business here. They're going to be traveling here. They'll be going to resorts here. And, you know, we have a great place ... we're going to have Americans staying home."

1. Good God in Butter we are screwed. We are looking at one of the greatest threats in our ...

... history and we have this train wreck of a President.

2. Love the pic. It's a perfect illustration. "But cirrusly," he said cloudily: "You know that tRUMP

is the best pRESIDENT that sPUTIN and the reTHUGS could buy." Time to take him back to the store
and get a refund...

3. "Greatest threats in history?"

[Botany]

5. I hope I am wrong but coronavirus could be a real hammer

rough calculations by an idiot (me)

330,000,000 (US Population) x .40 (low end of the infection rate) x .03 (3% lethality rate) = 3,960,000 deaths

I hope I am wrong and that "they" are able to make a vaccine, develop good treatment protocols and
that the economy doesn't take too big a hit but ?????

4. There has never been a better time to book a cruise

7. But only after going to work with the disease

“So we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that just get better, by, you know, sitting around and even going to work – some of ’em go to work – but they get better." Trump

6. IOW "if we're making money off this, I like it"

At a Trump resort, of course

10. Ummmm, no ... anyone seen pics of Boston Logan

11. so that's idiots uniform?

every time he plays a concern president in the middle of a national emergency he wears the same uniform

ridiculous

[smirkymonkey]

12. It's the "Super-Action-Guy-Windbreaker".

He only wears it during times of national crisis when he wants people to know that he really means business.

Feckless moron!

13. Yes, a very astute observation. That's his costume for the trip he's making to Tennessee

this morning in the wake of the tornado. I suppose the casual attire is supposed to suggest that he's there to roll up his sleeves and pitch in doing something physical and useful. Maybe he'll even chuck a couple of rolls of paper towels at the people who've lost their homes. Look for a photo up of him unloading a box of supplies from a truck. I remember one such photo post-hurricane in Houston...the video showed that his "unloading" was brief and stopped as soon as the still photo cameras stopped clicking.

15. How else are we to know how concerned Chump is?

That windbreaker is serious stuff, ya' know.

[WyattKansas]

14. Dumbass thinks it's better for the economy for them to stay and spend money here.

Yet the media lets it just fly right by...
The only fucking economy it would benefit would be wealthy people going to tRUMP's hotels and resorts. The media needs to learn how to gang up on tRUMP to Pearl Harbor his ass and only follow up with more questions calling him out...
Make him get pissed and avoid the media... Lets just see if he can actually hunker down and resolve a crisis like President Obama did so many times, and by all means, keep throwing jabs about his failure to match President Obama.

16. Amazing ignorance that he thinks anything is going to be open here either

2020 is going to be the year of the Staycation
