Listening to Trump now with his current 'virus presser'.
I think I heard him say:
'Reporters in South Korea are calling me up and saying what an amazing job we in the U.S. are doing with testing."

(1,076 posts)"Nolgo issnae." The gist of it is, "Stop lying!" or even the equivalent of our sarcastic "Yeah, Right!" or "Whatever!"
"Ige mwoya byeongsin-a." The literaly translation is "What's this," but in practice, it means, "What the hell is this, you fucking moron?"
"Ssi buri da." "What the fuck are you talking about?"
All are quite rude.

(37,157 posts)I coined that phrase a quarter century ago to describe Newt Gingrich. The guy for which other Republicans coined the phrase "Tell Newt to shut up".
It still applies to Newt, but that was like once a day. Sometimes twice.
With Trump it's several times an hour.

(2,248 posts)His lies always go to his weakest points. It's like he is compelled to address them (always wrapped in bullshit), therefore creating in his mind another reality where the original criticism is no longer valid and he is now the hero not getting the credit he deserves. I have never seen a person SOOOOOOO aggrieved in my life!

Jeong Eun-kyeong, director of South Koreas Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said the country is willing to send chemical reagents used to extract genetic material during COVID-19 tests, but at a level that doesnt affect its own testing capacity.
She didnt provide a detailed estimate on the size of supplies that could be shipped to the United States.
The office of South Korean President Moon Jae-in earlier said Trump during a telephone conversation between the leaders asked whether South Korea could send medical equipment and supplies to help the United States cope with its outbreaks.
