Trish Regan Says Coronavirus Is an Impeachment 'Scam' trying to 'Demonize And Destroy the President'


Fox Business Network host Trish Regan ripped into Democrats and the liberal media equal parts on her Monday, broadcast billing the novel deadly novel Coronavirus along the chyron as a “Coronavirus impeachment scam,” conceived by Trump’s political rivals. The opening segment to the Fox Business’s host’s program began on a riff aimed at calling out the “hate being leveled at the president.”

“We reached a tipping point. The chorus of hate being leveled at the president is nearing a crescendo as the Democrats blame him and only him for a virus that originated halfway around the world,” Regan stated. Regan continued, “And sadly it seems they care very little for the destruction they are leaving in their wake. Losses in the stock market, all this, unfortunately, part of the political casualties for them. This is the time to be united…Not to be encouraging hate.”

“We see the absolute opposite from the left tonight…The hate is boiling over. Many in the liberal media using Coronavirus in an attempt to demonize and destroy the president.”

“I see. This is impeachment all over again… They don’t care who they hurt. Whether it be their need to create mass hysteria to encourage a market sell-off, unlike anything we have seen recently or to be to create mass hysteria to stop our economy dead in its tracks.”

That the faithful will take it as the God's own Truth. I have been monitoring some very conservative sites and they are in full agreement that this is just another Democratic hoax and that there is nothing to be the least bit concerned about. My may see Darwinism entering the equation.

What is amazing is that the party of the working people have managed to crash the markets with their hoax. That is some trick.

Those damn things are selling like hotcakes!

Reality is, he just cant gaslight his way out of this; everyone knows it, and they're legit scared of a couple of things:

This nation is going to elect a government that gives a shit n raises all their taxes, and that a lot of TrumpCo will end up in prison.

The end result of both these things will be an America with a largely powerless Republican Party at the national level...and then who will watch fox news?

The nice thing about these incredibly stupid and clueless statements is that they can be recorded and stored somewhere, then played back later.

I doubt Trish is going to like her outburst’s optics later this year, even if the Corona Virus’ death toll is only a fraction of that of the Spanish Flu pandemic of just over a century ago.

Well, she chose to presstitute herself for Donald Trump, so she can enjoy the humiliation later.

... prop up a stupid con man who was installed into the White House in what could only called
the biggest crime in America's history by our enemy Vlad Putin.


NY Times, A scientist in 2018 "The threat of pandemic flu is the No. 1 health security concern,"...

... and then Trump fired him. (Because "that Black Guy" started the office to prepare for global
pandemics and then funding was cut for coronavirus vaccine [SARs] too.

NY Times: For Trump, Coronavirus Proves to Be an Enemy He Can’t Tweet Away

PALM BEACH, Fla. — Defending against criticism of his handling of the coronavirus, President Trump suggested the other day that he could hardly have been expected to be ready for such an unexpected crisis.

“Who would have thought?” he asked during a visit to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the nerve center for the government’s response to the outbreak. “Who would have thought we would even be having the subject?”

Actually, quite a few people would have thought, and did — including the officials in his own White House who were in charge of preparing for just such a pandemic only to have their office shut down in a reorganization in 2018. “The threat of pandemic flu is the No. 1 health security concern,” one of the officials said the day before that happened two years ago. “Are we ready to respond? I fear the answer is no.”

For a president who lives in the moment, rarely planning too far ahead, the coronavirus has proved to be a leadership challenge he was not prepared for either. The outbreak that has rattled the nation does not respond to Mr. Trump’s favorite instruments of power: It cannot be cowed by Twitter posts, it cannot be shot down by drones, it cannot be overcome by party solidarity, it cannot be overpowered by campaign rally chants.

That fucking “network” is a good 85% of the entire problem. It dishes out elemental, prime-number Orwellian LIES 24/7, each one served with equal parts fear and rage for those too dim or too frightened to think critically.

Tue Mar 10, 2020, 10:03 AM

And after being told started working on that person being fired. DNI Dan Coats warned trump, and they are hiding now they've been told another deadly virus is possibly coming and they aren't anywhere close to being ready for it, another national security threat. Trumps preventing that from getting out, so much so he prevented the intel from telling members of Congress about it. Anyone thinking its a hoax should ask why did he promote the same propaganda as Putin has been promoting falsely about it. People dying from this is no hoax, or fake news like trump is lying telling the American people it's a hoax and fake news.trumps a liar.
