Trump to declare national emergency to combat coronavirus

[PA Democrat]

President Donald Trump plans to declare a national emergency Friday to allow more direct relief to Americans affected by the coronavirus, two administration officials told NBC News.

The move could help open up tens of billions of dollars to help fight the rapidly spreading pandemic.

Trump announced earlier in the day that he will hold a press conference Friday afternoon about the response to the coronavirus pandemic.

“I will be having a news conference today at 3:00 P.M., The White House. Topic: CoronaVirus!” Trump tweeted.

1. He had to figure out a way to get some of that money

in his pocket first.

6. Maybe he'll offer up one of his hotels as a hospital.

For a small fee, of course...

2. He had to figure out how to be sure no money was being diverted from The Wall.

3. Will he still blame Democrats for the HOAX......

that he is declaring a National Security ?

Will he call off the 2020 election?

Will he blame Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer?

Inquiring minds will want to know because all this man is capable of is blaming others for fuckups of his making.

4. He can't call off the election. The Constitution gives control of elections to the states.

But of course he'll blame everybody else; he's already blamed Obama.

5. He's finally figured out how to cash in on it!!

7. I thought we were already in a national emergency re immigration so he could

get around laws and regulations to get his wall?
