  1. A wise leader: Wish for the best, prepare for the worst.
    Trump: Wish for the best, prepare for an imaginary miracle. Then blame everyone else for my failed leadership.

  2. “If we did half the testing, we’d have half the cases…” -Trump
    If we did zero testing, we would have zero cases. BOOM!!! Crisis solved. He miraculously did it. He miraculously said the dumbest thing, again.

    1. ​@Squidgy Games It’s the PERCENTAGE that gives you the highest RATE of cases, nitwit…

    2. @Squidgy Games I’m not American and viewing various American media outlets, CNN has been consistent with neutral international information. I do not see “BIAS”, unlike Fox, which is decidedly and fully committed to be biased and completely inconsistent with neutral international information.
      I’ve read three articles from CNN about the “White House Hispanic Prosperity Initiative”.
      You do realize the “Initiative” is merely a ‘bone’ thrown out for re-election purposes and has zero concrete methodology and specific strategy and is just filled with promising ‘fluff’ with no substance?

    3. @Squidgy Games “They report on the most insane things and blow it out of proportion.”
      Fox?

  3. I just saw the story
    “HHS confirms CORONA VIRUS hospital data will now be sent to DC INSTEAD of the CDC””
    -Jim Acosta
    This should concern EVERYONE!

    1. All he has to do is watch one network and it really is only about him. (Did you see what Fox said when the POTUS finally wore a mask at a HOSPITAL? “I thought he looked good.” Was the anchors response. SMH..

    2. @David J Bohnet – I noticed when the going got tough at question time yesterday he reached out to OAN for a softball question.

    1. James Rajan there is no reason the churches need to be open ! Good lord pray from home ! Someone needs to stand up to him , but when they do trump runs !

  4. Howcome when the US does something, that is anything. They’re always best in the world, at least according to themselves? Lowest mortality rate in the world. Most testing than any other country in the world. According to statistics, yes US there are people who wants to report the real truth. Not the bended truth that suits what’s best for the moment. There are at least 20 countries (mostly European) that crushes US in these statistics. Best in the world? I don’t think so.

    1. The US didn’t say that! Trump did. And stay away and quit listening to our news since you hate us . We have enough to worry about without you putting up your ignorant opinions!

    2. Watching these videos and reading these comments make me feel soooo happy I live in a country like mine! You are appalling! 🤦🏻‍♀️

  5. *As a Harvard neuroscientist who has provided professional scientific editing/consulting for 40+ COVID studies since the initial outbreak,* I’ll soon be releasing vids on the science behind COVID and SARS-CoV-2, in addition to neuro-related vids on leveraging our brains to improve our lives. Cheers.

    1. With those credentials you’d think you’d have a better target audience than people reading YouTube comments.

    2. Given the comments below I can provide you with a German phrase, a wordplay which sadly doesn’t work in English “Die Schul-/Ausbildung war teuer, aber umsonst”, translated “the education was expensive but to no avail.” The word “umsonst” has a double meaning: “for free” or “to no avail”.
      Anyway, looking forward to your releases…
      Stay safe! Cheers

    3. at 3:25 I cannot decide if it is his inability to read, the Parkinson’s or neurosyphilis, the hydroxychloroquine (or whatever drugs he is taking) but this guy is too impaired to drive or operate heavy machinery – much less run a campaign, a country, or a government effort against an out of control pandemic.
      Pence, Republicans… YOU HAVE GOT TO DO SOMETHING NOW!

  6. 3:24 “We saved tens of thousands of lives but we actually saved millions of lives… a number we’re working on…” It’s obvious that Trump didn’t like the number written on the script and decided to multiply it by 100. That what “we’re working on the number” means.

    1. Trump is a con man. In his mind the higher the number the more CONvinced you are. With the Saudi’s murder scandal he claim they created 65 000 jobs that gradually increased with to over a million with every TV appearance.

    2. I cannot decide if it is his inability to read, the Parkinson’s or neurosyphilis, the hydroxychloroquine (or whatever drugs he is taking) but this guy is too impaired to drive or operate heavy machinery – much less run a campaign, a country, or a government effort against an out of control pandemic.
      Pence, Republicans… YOU HAVE GOT TO DO SOMETHING NOW!

  7. “The cases are created because of test” find me a better joker 🃏 than this POTUS on in a century

    1. @Paul George Oh sorry… Thought you were talking to bb bb i d d den.

      “President Tr ump has ordered the notorious Guan tanamo Bay dete ntion camp in C uba to prepare for “high-level” American priso ners, according to a new Mi litary of Defense report.”

      “The last time such preparations were made was during the 1945-46 Nure mberg Trials held to prosecute Ger man Na zi war criminals. Just like what happened in 1945, we are now seeing hundreds of highly trained and specialized US Ar my Mi litary Police being rushed to Cuba to oversee this process.

      Bb bbb bb ye Bb bb ii dden

    2. @Irish Colleen in MN Then stop comparing U S cases against countries that dont test much. Half the tests, test positive automatically.

  8. I don’t even have the energy for the rage this “president” deserves. I can only cry knowing that this is what OUR country is dealing with.

    VOTE BLUE!!!! THAT will save lives.

  9. I feel like someone is jamming an ice pick in my ear when I hear trump talk , his lies are unbearable.

    1. You must be talking about Fouci! This false flag has put millions out of work, and your hideous demonrat party wants to double down on it ad-infinitum!

    2. @Kate100294764 First he says no one needs masks, then everyone needs them, then Trump supporters somehow need to exercise “social distancing” but BLM and anqueefa supporters don’t need to exercise the social distancing, on top of constantly disputed numbers of “infected” and even more disputed numbers of “mortality” rates etc.

    3. @bill billings screw Politics. Politics is poisoning America. Come back into reality like the rest of the World

  10. The “billionaire” who hides his tax returns.
    The “genius” who hides his college grades.
    The “businessman” who bankrupted 3 casinos and lost over $1B in 10 years.
    The “playboy” who pays for sex.
    The “Christian” who doesn’t go to church.
    The “philanthropist” who defrauds charity.
    The “patriot” who dodged the draft. And attacks dead Veterans and their widows.
    The “innocent man” who refuses to testify.
    Trump Translations

    “A lot of people don’t know” = I just learned something most people already knew
    “Believe me” = I just lied
    “In Fact” = I’m about to lie
    “He’s a great guy” = I will deny ever knowing this person after they begin to tell the truth about me
    “MAGA” = Making my pockets fatter off the American tax payers
    “Nobody knew” = Everyone knew except me
    “Huge” = moderate to below average in size
    “Loser” = someone who makes me feel inferior due to their talent or accomplishments
    “Policy Briefing” = Turning on Fox News
    “Liar” = Someone telling the truth about me
    “Fake News” = Real news from mike s

  11. “We’re doing tests….so it’s showing cases. If we didn’t do testing…. there would be no cases”

    I’m embarrassed for America…what an idiot. But then again you voted him in.

    1. Actually, they didn’t vote him in. His opponent received a majority of votes, but the US isn’t a democracy. A secretive body called the electoral college handed orange hitler the presidency.

    2. Most of us did not vote for this ignorant liar. this is hell with him. covid and him? , pence, ? We’ll be back in Jan.to erase this black mark in history. Peace World.

    3. his right corona virus is in the testing equipment, open your eyes , media is misleading you, trust trump I know he sounds like an idiot but his right, read books ,do ur own research

    4. That’s exactly what OBummer did during sars. He started testing late and for no reason just stopped testing to make the figures look good. SARS didn’t go away for two years, but he stopped testing about half a year after he started. Just because you test positive for CV-19 does not mean you are infectious. It means you had, it and got over it. Since there are NO specific tests for COvID-19, if you EVER had a CV infection IN YOUR LIFE, you would test positive for a CV infection AT ONE TIME. Considering all the flu epidemics the world has seen inthe past 50 years, I would be very surprised if at least 90% of the population would test positive. We learnt in 1918 that masks don’t work, yet they are being pushed by Governors, even Fauci has flip-flopped. Young people are so easily rattled and fearful of the Boogey Man its pathetic how easily they give up their God given rights just to let someone else look after them.

  12. Who should I believe? A man who has dedicated his life to the research of infectious diseases? Or a reality television Clown who’s daddy paid his way through finance school? 🙂 Imagine my dilemma.

    1. @Tessmage TesseraMy life is worth my children’s freedom. A country that is strapped with crippling debt, unemployment and socialism to feed the drowning masses. I’ve seen plenty of vonurable people say the same. Cowering in the corner is not an option, at least not for me.

    2. @Mr Wrestling and all that is on trumps hands. if he would have acted then that whole thing would be under control months ago.

    3. You mean the illustrious “Dr.” Fouci who has already been caught lying, along with CNN, MSNBC, NBC ABC and all the rest of your corporate media SCUM?!

    4. @Eric No, if China would have acted the whole thing would be under control. Thats where the blame lies.

    5. H RALF actually, it’s on you all. Uruguay: Friday 13th March first 4 cases reported. Saturday 14th: sanitary emergency: closure of borders, suspension of classes, government’s appeal to a responsible quarantine (go out for shopping, if you can’t work from home, etc. 16th April: everyone out, with social distancing and masks. 17th July: everything open (with sanitary protocols and 30 deaths in total. You were all frolicking around while the world was falling apart. The blame’s on you all!

  13. “this artificially tanned man”….one of the best comments of 2020………what does it say about the intellect of 38% of American’s…the 38% that make up Trump’s base and believe he’s doing a ‘stellar’ job.

    1. you never mention the bleach-blonde hair (just the muskrat on top). Trump is not blonde.
      but whoever is doing his hair is getting better – you can hardly see the yellow stripe.

    2. Watch a Jordan Klepper vs. Trump supporters video here on You Tube. You will laugh. But, then you will cry for this country.

    3. You need to have common sense to understand what Trump is doing for the country. So that leaves you out. Vote for your braindead socialist candidate Biden. What a great president he will make with dementia. Think about your own intellect to vote for a radical corrupt socialist career politician who is ready for an old age home. Who’s intellect is truly in question not the quote 38% of Trump supporters. Its sadly the 62%
