So, should we call it the "tRump Virus," the "tRump Plague," or the "tRump Pandemic?"

[stopbush]

Which option has the better ring to it?

[NurseJackie]

1. ...

Trump-Flu ??

[MacKasey]

6. Donny-Flu

[Walleye]

2. MAGAvirus

[MuseRider]

5. THAT has possibilities! n/t

[magicarpet]

3. The tRump Plague might not be exactly correct,...

..... but I like it because it sounds more cootie than all the others.

[brewens]

10. Plus people are pretty much used to the tRump plague by now. n/t

[Under The Radar]

16. Trump plague kinda rolls off the tongue better

[MuseRider]

4. Personally

I think we should use pandemic because he has been telling us idiots all along that is what this is and we apparently either did not know what that was or did not hear him. JFC, this man just makes everything suck worse, even a pandemic.

[brewens]

7. The MAGAdeath flu. n/t

[virgogal]

8. Covid-19.Time to give this stuff a rest.

[DonaldsRump]

14. Why on earth would you say that?

Because we are politicizing this?

What do you think Trump is doing by calling it the Chinese Virus? It is clear as day that his and Fox's complete conversion on the Trump Virus is designed to spin it so that he and the Rus-publicans are the saviors. Just one example: https://www.rawstory.com/2020/03/can-trump-use-the-coronavirus-pandemic-to-win-again-heres-why-you-should-be-worried/

Trump should be forever associated with this awful disease by his failure to act.

I am fed up with this gaslighting.

[hughee99]

21. Exactly! I can't believe Trump is trying to blame someone else for this virus. That sort of

gaslighting is unacceptable...

Also, we should call it Trump's virus.

[Azathoth]

9. Pretty sure that history books will use all three

Depending on the author.

[Firestorm49]

11. Trumpandemic.

[dalton99a]

12. All beautiful and perfect. Trump Virus, Trump Pandemic, Trump Crash, Trump Recession

[jmg257]

13. Silly. C-19 is fine. nt

[DonaldsRump]

15. See post 14 n/t

[jmg257]

22. Yeah - still silly. nt

[DonaldsRump]

23. Nothing silly about it

It's fact. Trump single-handedly botched this. That's silly. Criminally so.

[DonaldsRump]

25. I guess this is "silly" too?

Politics is about spinning reality to your version. The Republicans are FAR better at that than we are. They will spin this to their convenience, with truth going down the toilet. They excel at that, and they have already started on the Trump Virus.

If we wimp out over something this obvious, let's go back to discussing HRC's emails, which were far more serious, right?

[DonaldsRump]

26. And I guess HRC is even sillier than me

17. the orange crud

[phatkatt]

18. COVFEFE-19

😂

[Siwsan]

19. The Orange Plague

Describes both the situation and its enabler.

[projectiboga]

20. Trumpandemic.

[Brother Mythos]

24. When in doubt, I try to go with the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) Principal.

So, my choice is "The Trump Virus."

But, anything that catches on, and successfully attaches Trump's name to it forever, is acceptable to me.

[kairos12]

27. The Trumponic Plague.

[Chainfire]

28. Just call it what it is

Trump's virus, or Trump's Hoax.

All jokes aside, we do need to settle on a name and use it everywhere we go. Trump likes putting his names on things and I think we should accommodate him. It is the patriotic thing to do.....

[gibraltar72]

29. Orange Plague.

[Lancero]

30. The Carnivore Virus.

Hardly the first time the Carnos meat fetish has caused a virus to jump species and infect humans, but w/e.

[Sancho]

31. Don's Disease...
