  1. “It’s going to go away.”
    D. Trump in February, March, April, May, June and, most recently, last week.

    1. Colacurcio Law you liberals are really sheep that are letting the government take full control of us

    2. @Jacob Sibert He signed prison reform act apparently only benifits blacks cuz white folks dont go to prison.that can’t be cuz half of his administration is in prison

    3. Banktrumpt #Bunkerboy – “My name is Joe Biden and I’m the democratic candidate for US Senate.”

  2. Stop trying to figure out the ‘logic’ in resident Lump’s thinking. Cheeto is a psychopath. He enjoys creating chaos and pain.

    1. @Jonathan Figueroa Yes. But…first, the Spanish Influenza lasted 3 years and ended a world war.

      Trump said it would disappear in April.
      Yes, the Spanish influenza vanished that first spring….and returned the next fall, killing even more people than the first round had.

      Novel diseases do all kinds of unpredictable things, which is no reason for the President, a non health professional, to be making predictions that make people fail to take precautions.

    2. @J Groovy We dont know for sure that we will have herd immunity or a working vaccine…some corona viruses are very difficult to develop lasting immunity to.
      So it might work well, or we might struggle with it.

      But yes, I agree, we DO need to have and be employing a nationally coordinated pandemic response plan, as Bush and Obama both understood.

    3. Jonathan Figueroa yeah you’re absolutely right ,one thing though 50 to 100 million DIED before it disappeared . Eventually it might go away but how many deaths will it take for the man in charge to take this seriously!? Good luck though.

    4. @Jonathan Figueroa Yes we can! That guy was saying 15 cases will soon be 0, in the face of experts saying otherwise!

  3. I don’t believe what is going on in the US. Luckily I live in Holland and I wish you another president in the future…

    1. bertvdvelden yes! I feel exactly the same from Australia…The American public deserve better and should he stay in …….well I’d be terrified.

    2. @Ron Wuerch The ‘president’ left office on January 20th, 2017. All you got since then is a narcissistic, corrupt, ignorant, sociopathic bully who lies, screams, bribes and throws tantrums if he doesn’t get his way.
      And no, this is not only my viewpoint, but of the entire rest of the world.

  4. If they literally just got better, then can he tell us why their medical bills are so high?

    1. *You’re gonna blame the doctor whose saving lives for medical bills? Man you’re dumb AF* 🙄

    2. @Austyn Goveas Because it’s very likely that he’ll cheat again successfully. Russia already helped him once. I wonder. Why? 🤔

  5. Trump doesn’t care about the victims permanently damaged survivors of the Coronavirus; Donald Trump just care about positive headlines that will get him re-elected.

  6. January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”
    February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”
    February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
    February 25: “CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling Coronavirus.”
    February 25: “I think that’s a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it. They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a vaccine.”
    February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.”
    February 26: “We’re going very substantially down, not up.”
    February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”
    February 28: “We’re ordering a lot of supplies. We’re ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn’t be ordering unless it was something like this. But we’re ordering a lot of different elements of medical.”
    March 2: “You take a solid flu vaccine, you don’t think that could have an impact, or much of an impact, on corona?”
    March 2: “A lot of things are happening, a lot of very exciting things are happening and they’re happening very rapidly.”
    March 4: “If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work — some of them go to work, but they get better.”
    March 5: “I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work.”
    March 5: “The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!”
    March 6: “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down.”
    March 6: “Anybody right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test gets a test. They’re there. And the tests are beautiful…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.”
    March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”
    March 6: “I don’t need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn’t our fault.”
    March 8: “We have a perfectly coordinated and fine tuned plan at the White House for our attack on CoronaVirus.”
    March 9: “This blindsided us.”
    March 9: “The Fake News Media and their partner, the Democrat Party, is doing everything within its semi-considerable power (it used to be greater!) to inflame the CoronaVirus situation, far beyond what the facts would warrant.”
    March 10: “It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”
    March 13: National Emergency Declaration

    1. @Matjesfilet mit Soße That’d take too long, literally too many lies to list, god bless this dude for covering the lies/quotes that he did

    1. We need a president, period. Trump is a Fake president. Fake, with a capital F, the way he would write it.

  7. I just drove cross country through 21 states during this past month. I saw tons of people not wearing masks & lots of Trump shrines in people’s yards. Get out and vote! Trump’s cult members will be.

  8. “In most cases, they automatically cure, they automatically get better.” If I could wave my magic wand I’d make you and the virus go away Mr I-just-took-a-test-and-passed-it. Simplistic Republican thinking…to just let the virus come and go as it pleases. Is November here yet????

  9. ” Just because he finally put a mask on” Doesn’t mean heas not still an idiot.!!😂

    1. hanna maria b/c him wearing a mask has a knock on affect with his supporters, if he shows leadership in doing something which is verifiably known to cut down on the amount of sharing the virus between people then his supporters might actually take his decision into wearing one into consideration when being asked to wear one themselves. A great many refuse just b/c trump refuses.

    2. Congress is getting the 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕 ready. Appears Dictatorboy won’t leave the bunker in January. Will Trump pull a Hitler? 🔮

      #yes 💊

    3. Demetris Stevens too little way too late. AND he only put it on because they demanded he did so if he wanted to enter the facility. Not his choice.

    4. I’m betting Trump needed a hand putting the mask on, and immeadiatly took it off once the cameras weren’t focused on him.

  10. It’s time for a global intervention. The US has become the out of control child of the world

    1. Actually yes. But the US have pulled out of WHO and blaming China for the virus and getting the 5 eyes and others to jointly blame China. When it concerns China, the reds and the blues on same wave lengths. DJT is Making America Grief Again.

    2. You can’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped. The people need to join together, put their entitlement aside and realize that this virus is not a political debate, but a danger to the entire nation.

  11. According to the president of the United States we should stop testing.
    I don’t know about any body else but I am scared that this mite become so bad that we mite not be able to recover from it .

    1. You should be. If those numbers have any truth and the low mark is 30% having long term effects You currently have about 3.5 million cases so 1million people might have long lasting or permanent effects from this. Everybody’s health care cost will have to rise to cover that.
      That’s not to even look at the high mark of 50% either.

    2. America is a run away freight train right now and the fall flu season is a few months away .. if you do get this in check in the next few weeks your going to remember this time as the good old days when only 60000 people were infected daily and people were not dropping dead in the ER’s and streets .. I think i can speak for most canadians in saying you guys are neck deep in it right and you dont even seem to care. I just cant believe how arrogant a country can be .. acting like your separate from the rest of the world . Covid does not care if your American and at this rate there might not be an american anymore .

    3. Blame Trump and his Administration and specially the Republicans they don’t care about the U.S.A and we the people who vote these idiots in. They only care about their interest who give them campaign contributions and corporations who actually control the politicians. We the people should be controlling the politicians by voting them out and never settle for less. Hold them accountable of the duties at hand and never believe their lies ever again.

    4. Jason Dash Hey wait. Don’t rag on ALL of us like that. We are scared. Most of us hate Trump. It’s embarrassing. He’s insane. He’s trying to kill us. We don’t want him. We are victims. It’s just that there’s so many complete dopes that are in our country that actually believe the crap that comes out of his mouth. It really is frightening!!

    5. If Trump gets voted back in for another term, I honestly don’t believe your country will recover from this pandemic! Until the US ( President & citizens alike)get serious about getting this virus under control, the rest of the world’s borders will stay closed to Americans. Sincerely, good luck & stay safe! 🇨🇦 Wear a mask!😷

  12. Americans should be smarter when electing a president.
    trump resume:
    -6 bankruptcy
    -fail casinos
    -4 ex-wives
    -a dozen affairs
    -lies constantly

    1. The only reason he won is because he was running against Hillary…………..and she almost won. He is a Draft Dodging Lying POS coward.

    2. @Xero S the only fake point is the 4 wives which should be 2 exes & 1 future ex as soon as he’s out as president in Nov.

  13. Saying people “automatically” get better is just plain disrespectful for all the Healthcare workers who try their best to cure people and save lives

    1. @Totally Unimportant for goodness sake, what a load of crap. It will kill you before it heals you.

    2. @Totally Unimportant Nice misdirection there. You didn’t answer the original question. Since you mentioned it though. It is called a novel corona virus for a reason. Through research they are figuring out the vectors. Now they know surfaces are not a major source of transmission and it is an airborne vector. Did you think about why no one is making tons of money marketing a virus cure based on copper yet?

    3. @Cobra strike uh…how about you just look up on researchgate silver ion therapy to treat SARS…that’s a research journal site. copper silver ionisation water filtration systems are used in hospitals to control pathogens. I don’t even know what to say to somebody like you who doesn’t understand basic scientific principles instead of reading and sharing/checking information. Oligodynamics work in the bloodstream in the same way that they work in water in water filtration systems. What superstition is making you think otherwise? While it’s true very large amounts of copper and silver are toxic at a certain point the thing is that humans have static electricity in their bodies and that makes it so that small amounts are more antiviral. Look up the medical uses of silver on Wikipedia that are plenty of citations on it. A copper silver ionization pool is not harmful ..some people are deeeense
