'This Is Not political': Congressman Says His State Is In Need | Morning Joe | MSNBC
where are all of the billionaires and their billions in philanthropy?
♫Gone to BIG Banks, every one♫
@Bette Chic you are not a Christian.
@Firecat Crone you have to be right wing and rich for the evilness to become apparent.
@Noiseless Sounds – Why are you attacking her? She’s right.

@Lotta Sunshine Also pretty sure that article would negative your agenda because you didn’t read it.
*where are all of the billionaires and their billions in philanthropy?*
@wel1968 Harsh, and cruel as Trump and Republicans. Listen to yourself.
@nancy lee Wasn’t it $500 billion?
All waiting to profit on the Covid – 19, like trump.
Probably sitting in 1 of their guarded mansions counting their $$ and looking at ways to make even more during this global pandemic. The filthy rich care about 1 thing over all else… $$$$ They ain’t gonna part with any unless it’s in their own best interest.
MIA
The Moron In Chief , won’t lead because he doesn’t know how
and won’t move out of the way so others may do his job .
He is worried more about Wall Street than about people .
@Mack G. Now tell us about wht repubs are doing.
@Yvonne Tomenga Minority leader, Schumer said it was bipartisan then flipped when Pelosi came into the picture.
Liberal in Oklahoma yep business as usual he is certified nuts
@TA Gil Trying to get the stimulus bill through but not the one that the Democrats proposed which is full of money for their friends in Government and organizations that support them.
@Mack G. – The Democrats only worked on the bill drafted by the Republicans on Saturday. On Sunday, the Republicans met with lobbyists. Try listening to C-SPAN which provides source material. That way you won’t sound like you’re parroting Republican talking points. Of course, that assumes you’re open-minded enough to recognize there are 2 sides to every story.
The President is “A Coward!!!”
@casadekarlito What I was commenting on is the fact that Trump is to afraid of it blowing up in his face to act!
@Peter Marchi I know the point of what you are saying but I had to add in his genetic cowardice as a point of fact. I despise this man beyond words but I wanted to remind people that he and his family have benefited substantially from the country BUT they have given nothing back in return. He’s afraid of losing the upcoming election because the economy is faltering so he’s willing to sacrifice other people’s lives to get what he wants. His life is not at risk while hiding in the WH. He refused to serve in Vietnam through a fake medical excuse and someone else probably died in his place.
I know that he is a coward when it comes to doing the right thing because he’s afraid this will be the end of his presidency….(I hope).
💯
@casadekarlito A Coward is A Coward, in my book, but as it relates here is like this, “He is to afraid to step up and lead through the Covid 19 crisis because in clashes with him running for a second term. A True leader would not care if he wins or loses another term they would do what needs to be done.
@Peter Marchi I agree 100%
Question: Is t’rump too lazy or too incompetent to do the job?
Answer: Both
Both, lazy and incompetent.
Ro G both
He keeps winning
Joe Paleface short lived
@Joe Paleface He keeps fooling
Trump a wartime president? No wonder he’s dodging it.
If this was during world war 2. And TRUMP was our President, We’d be speaking Russian by now.
Trump demolished ISIS, trump broke china in the trade war, trump called out Kim Jong, he dropped the moab bomb in Syria (Russian base or not,lol) he assassinated Solemani. He set NATO straight. Russia folded in Syria after dropping the bomb, rocket man folded when he knew trump had a bigger button, and it sounds like Iran warned us of their retaliatory attack to avoid war, and met (first time ever) with the Taliban to talk peace. This is only because we have decimated them. I’d say he is wartime! Obama just sent everyone money.
@VL Lucero omg I did not know he did all that.
@a. barker Now you do!!. Lol
@a. barker what did obama do? Other than send money to everyone?
This is what happens when you have a spoon fed spoiled child as a president. He watches his money while people are going to funerals.
He is a sociopath don’t forget.
If you watch any of his campaign speeches all he talked about was money, how everyone was going to make money when he wins. Of course this was besides his greatest hits. Money, money, money…
I think it’s America spoiled with the silver spoon. I’m sure even if I explained this, you wouldn’t get it. Keep drinking the Kool aid.
Trump is only interested in money and his campaign. The people are a minor incidental irritant to him!!
No leadership skills whatsoever.
Wrong.Ger it together
Mary Brown He is passing the buck for a reason. It insulates him from full responsibility and criticism if things go wrong. It wasn’t his fault. It was Mike Pence, or the CDC doctors, or the Governors of states. If he has this cover, he can begin to spin this crisis with his base. The funny thing is, his base is the hardest hit in this epidemic.

Watch video it will change your mind In the pure ignorance
Talking about testing for weeks and still only the rich and very sick can get them.
Cuomo is our President right now.
♥
I’m from Canada and I agree! It’s nice to hear from someone who is honest! 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸💯
Cuomo just better man than any one in the WH & show more leadership
Who would have thought that being President of the US would require a higher degree of skill sets than a washed up reality tv show host has ?
@Kathy Fewell
Poor drumpf. Everybody blames him when things get screwed up.
Maybe that goes with the job, it’s called being the president of the US. Harry Truman said…
“The buck stops here !”
When FDR died in office during WWll, Truman was suddenly thrust into office without the benefit of presidential briefings or any inside knowledge of the secret Operation Manhattan Project,the development of the world’s first automic bomb.
” Suddenly, l felt like the weight of the earth, the stars and all the planets were upon me”.
In those days, the vice president wasn’t invited to morning briefings.
He wasn’t afforded updates on the intricacies of government, he was basically a figure head.
So Truman was introduced to a crash course to learn the essential information needed to be president during a time of war.
He was to learn for the first time of a bomb that had immeasurable power and responsibilities.
And now, we look back at those times and wonder how it came to pass, this president is given full acess to those morning briefings that Vice President Truman was denied, but this president often ignores those meetings, and oftentimes ignores the warnings of his intelligence advisors when he does attend them.
Once again, this nation is at war, not against a militarized nation, this time it’s a deadly, highly contagious disease without a vaccine.
This president was warned by his intelligence advisors last January of the urgency of a pending pandemic, but he chose to ignore those warnings, choosing instead, to concentrate his primary concerns to a faltering stock market.
So now we have hospitals that were denied earlier warnings and the CDC was similarly kept in the dark.
These discrepancies have resulted in shortages of N-95 masks, inhalers, gowns and various other hospital supplies.
Additionally, the loss of the pandemic quick response team and the late call to attention to the CDC, has lost previous time for a suitable vaccine….by approximately three months.
Truman, if he were alive would be a gasp at the blatant incompetence of this president.
@Jeffrey Hagelin… Remember 2009 ( swine flu) ? We had over 13,000 deaths yet we weren’t warned about it until 6 months after the fact. We had been short on supplies since then for a great deal of things concerning medical issues. Every flu season there are a great deal of deaths from it. As far as this coronavirus bill, Pelosi had to come back from vacation and throw crap into it that had nothing to do with the virus. What about the money she wants for performing arts? Big businesses like Ford, etc….are ramping up to make respirators, masks, gloves, beds etc. Yet without us helping them out people might not have a job, small businesses..same thing — we need them. Without an emergency situation…Obama gave big banks all that money and no stipulations were put on them! As far as Trump lying….go fact check and research on your own what the Dems have done for this country —– NOTHING!!! Democrat is your party of corruption now….making China most favored country, Benghazi, people coming into the president’s job with little money and leaving with 8 multi-million dollar homes and 3billion in the bank. Trump has been using his own money and he hasn’t taken a paycheck yet. With what he has done for this country —— yes, he is President material more so than what you have or had running in past and now. Cut him some slack! By the way, yes there are corruption in the Republican party…l haven’t forgotten about them.
@Kathy Fewell
Traitorous self serving presidents get no slack !
Let’s hope someone close to you doesn’t die from coronavirus.
Please, no more scapegoating, deflections and finger pointing.
This “emperor” is stark naked and it’s not pretty.
@Kathy Fewell
I’m not running for president, but l can assure you, that if l were in that position, l have every confidence to the marrow of my bones, that l would be a much more responsible and worthy of the office over this clown even if he stank in that office for the next 100 years.
@Kathy Fewell hahahahaha
My God the inmates are literally running the asylum !
and winning
YRUMP MUST BE SHUT DOWN AND THROWN OUT OF OFFICE, I’d feel better first if he was gone
It’s not about you.America first.Learn the English language then spelling will improve.
awwww
Colonel Bone Spurs the war- time President is missing in action.
You can look up his daily schedules, and he has a daily briefing, to discuss messaging each day. That’s it. So, he sits around tweeting. Proving just how much he has never done. No Maralago weekends is probably the hardest thing he has ever done.
What? Missing again? It figures.
Missing from action~ never was in action, therefore cannot be MIA.
What a caring politician looks like = Cuomo. No perfect, not all-knowing, but caring and looking for practical solutions.
When years of falsely branding government social programs as “communism” comes back to bite you.
Maybe if you all didn’t politicize everything and make it a winner takes all game, people might compromise with you. Medicare for all is communist.
@Tyler Johnson You are a perfect example of someone who has been misinformed and taken in by false branding. Communism means making it illegal to own property or a businesses. In a communist country it would be illegal to run a private hospital. That is NOTHING like choosing to have a state run medical service _IN ADDITION_ to any private companies. Virtually every country in Europe has a state run health system alongside private hospitals. Republicans have deliberately confused people by pretending that if the government owns something then that is the same as the government banning everyone else from having it. Obviously that is just not true. The problem with communism is that no one is allowed to make their own businesses. This is NOT the case with Medicare. You are the victim of propaganda. Why would anyone NOT want a state run medical system? You get the same thing you get with private medicine but you cut out profiteering middle men in the insurance industry and in the medical industry. With Medicare you stop paying for insurance companies to leech away profits for themselves and you stop paying medical privateers to leech away profits for their own private bank accounts. So you get the same medical care but a lot cheaper.
@Lelly Parker Thank you for posting that.
@Tyler Johnson
You don’t understand healthcare for all do you?
While all the other countries are having healthcare for all, not overmedicating and not overdiagnosing everyone you see, has made these countries better…
Look at UK, Germany, INDIA! Freaking India with a billion people only has 600 infected with only 10 dead! They have more population than we do!
While the US went from 15,000 to 50,000 Infected and 200 to 500 dead. And US is a first-world country! It went from around 8-10th highest infected country to 3rd infected country…
How insulting is that? A third-world country is doing better than the first-world country?
I don’t know what they’re doing right now. But whatever they’re doing right now is not working right now.
Tyler Johnson oh yeh, the 60-70 countries around the world with it are all Communist, lol
Invoke the 25th Amendment and be done with this garbage administration.
I agree 25th ammendment.
Best president ever.
@Gary Rosie STUPID
@Gladys Marrero Wut iz yoo stoopit?
They can’t ..The house failed at every attempt to get Trump out..He is a fighter and winner..Dems are alo forcing him to win 2020..Trump didn’t want 8 years in DC
He dodged before, he’ll dodge again.
This how a draft-dodging coward liar “fights’ a war – he dodges it – no plan, no strategy, no bravery, no concern – and declares himself a hero
Hilarious, it is too sickening. Reality, I mean. We know that’s who he is. Nothing but a coward with a great big mouth. All talk. All B.S. Complete B.S.
@Ann Marie Boucher Trump is a criminal liar traitor to the USA citizens
If his behavior isn’t treason, it should be. If they give him a $500 billion slush fund that he doesn’t have to tell who he gives it to for six months, I cannot even express my disgust for the US Senate. He refuses to disclose his taxes, give up his business holdings, ……… WELL, get rid of every senator regardless of party. It makes my blood boil. He is a criminal, a liar, a molester, a rotten father, and just for giggles ———— he is O R A N G E! Draft dodger, cheat.
