Sun Apr 19, 2020, 05:12 PM
Apr 2020

with his team at all. If Birx thought the China numbers would be an issue, she probably would have done things differently. They have to go out there and deal with Trump showing them up.

He screwed the keynote speaker at the prayer breakfast. No way that dude would have given the presentation he did if he knew Trump would totally contradict him. That had to piss off the guys running that thing too. Of course all the love your enemy thing was bullshit and they all knew it, but they like to at least pretend to be Christians. They didn't need Trump blowing it up.

Not to mention all the Governors who called him out today. Not to mention a scorching discussion of him by Piers Morgan on CNN this AM. And I'm sure there is a lot more I've missed.

Rare form, indeed.

Andrea:
Trump still not taking on any role to help with testing, close to a deal on some $470B package.
House members may have to return on Wednesday, deal might be struck as early as tomorrow but does not include food stamp or state relief.

Monica Alba:
Describing showing selected clips from Cuomo's address yesterday, cherry picked clips.

Trump continues not to use the Defense Production Act in any real way, just threatens to use it.

Rumor is that he might actually invoke it, I am not buying it.
