Trump Faces Huge Leadership Crisis Over Coronavirus And The Economy | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

  1. the whole gang standing there looking quite pathetic, like deers trapped in a cage (after catching the headlights)

    1. We all know Trump, but the people behind him have no guilt. Theu don’t care about the people that voted for them. They only care about Trump and hope that we keep believing his lies. It’s time for the people to rise up and save ourselves.

  2. What a vile man. More interested in asking about his ratings and spinning the truth during that CDC visit.

    1. @benny ko
      Even the worst of the loons eventually realizes the futility of supporting a failure as miserable as Trump.
      I shouldn’t be too unkind I suppose, he’s a product of his culture and there’s plenty more where he came from.
      Cheers

    2. @benny ko should go over to FOX theyre “god blessing” him ever second comment, irony is they dont seem to understand god doesn’t like pathological liars and infidelity

    3. @benny ko go to the fox news coverage of the virus…..they’re all over there…..go figure 🤦🏿‍♂️

  3. By repeatedly saying “we’re handling it well” DOESN’T mean that “you’re handling it well”.

    1. He’s a real estate guy. Not a doctor or infectious disease expert. What part of this would you like him to handle? It seems to me he has put the best people we have on it, and they are handling it. Did you think because we live in America, that nobody was going to get it, or die from it? What would you like him to repeatedly say? He could get Obama up there to tell us that our health is never coming back. Would that be better? 50 states in this nation, each with an elected representative, all bearing executive authority and this is somehow Trump’s problem?

    2. @Bob G. he put Mike Pence in charge of responding to corona virus. Aids exploded in Indiana under Pence’s watch. These fools don’t even believe in science.

    3. @Leonie Romanes, they absolutely do believe in science. That is why they handed it over to scientists. The things the administration could do, like travel restrictions, were begun a while ago, and they were hammered for that. Though now we know it was the right decision., no apologies from the critics, of course. They just shut up about it and look for the next thing to be wrong about.
      Not that it has anything to do with anything really, but how does the “explosion” of AIDs have anything to do with any government official? Unless they participating in the behaviors knowns to transmit AIDs. Other than people who got it from a tainted blood transfusion, children who were born with it, or people whose cheating partners brought it home, everyone else could have avoided getting it once we knew how it was transmitted. For the last 20 years, anyone who got AIDs was just reckless.

  4. The Absolute Dumbest president of all time. This is what happens when you elect a Reality TV star as leader

    1. Worse than that, Trump was only posing as a star. Behind the scenes he was a clueless fuckhead who had to have his shoes tied for him.

    1. This is a Crisis. But, there is no leadership crisis! LOL. This is a huge false narrative and the voters see right through the Fake News media. Very transparent.

    2. Moderate American Ohh surrrrre, yup that’s the ticket!! DR FAUCI a world renowned EXPERT in infectious diseases for the fun of it fcking decided to put his integrity, stellar career & medical reputation on the line JUST to feed a “false narrative” and make Dear Leader “look bad”….🤔 wtf 😂
      Shoo, go watch Fox and let the intellectuals chat please 👋👋👋

  5. I hope you’re using the word “Leadership” loosely when referring to Trump. The imbecile couldn’t lead a Congo line.

    1. Omg talk about sucking up? You loons really are pathetic! Get ready to get smashed again in November. You all deserve it!

    2. @terry walker Sure, whatever you say buddy. Considering that over 50% of Trump’s voting base is age 45 and up, and the virus fatality rate tends to climb with age jumping from 7 to 31 fatalities since Friday and a rise from 60 cases last Tuesday to over 1k today. Many of us who are of that age group are going to seriously have to reconsider giving your 70yr old toddler any adult decision making capacity come Nov 11th. While I understand Trump himself is not responsible for the virus, his veto of limited health funding that could have purchased valuable tests and his attitude of a Pandemic being the flu and world wide hoax is disconcerting at the least and menacingly counterproductive to officials that do know what they are talking about. Furthermore his choices for unqualified officials for both Disease Control and Surgeon General disqualify this man as any kind of leader.

  6. When a person as self-centered as Trump is can’t get a test, you know there aren’t enough tests to go around.

  7. Lol people freaking out about him shaking hands … His hands are too small to carry and transfer enough of the virus . Your president is safe

    1. @Gar Sm No genius he has restricted members of the Schengen 26 European states that have officially abolished all passport and all other types of border control at their mutual borders. Other EU countries exempt are Croatia, Cyprus, Bulgaria and Romania. Get a clue

    2. @Eric Peters You mean like Obama who brought 9 confirmed cases of Ebola with a 71% mortality rate into the US, How about the 2009 Swine Flu 59 million Americans contracted the H1N1 virus, 265,000 were hospitalized as a result, and 12,000 died.

  8. tRump is, too scared to be tested, he might be quarantined WITHOUT his phone… That’s why he won’t get tested.

    1. Jack Nelson pulling together might not be the best idea during a pandemic LoL perhaps a little distance is just what we need

    1. Nope. False Narrative. Has it ever occurred to you to take personal responsibility to know the difference between the Truth and propaganda?

    2. @Moderate American When you point a finger at someone, there are three fingers pointing back at you. Yeah, let’s talk about Truth and propaganda.

  9. “The president remain in excellent health” – for a morbidly obese person, likely with dementia and who is mentally and emotionally decificient.

    1. @Marvin Guigar oh please Trump will drop dead from a stroke long before Biden will. I doubt Trump could do 1 pushup

    1. @Diane Smith – Only leadership Trump has shown is how to bankrupt your own business. Fact. Or how to be the biggest liar in the world. Fact.

  10. The boy who cried wolf one too many times squandered his trust. When there really was a wolf and he told the truth no one believed him.

    1. @Nebmum in trump’s case, yes. Apparently he is incapable of telling the truth about anything.

  11. Mitt Rodney will not get the Coronavirus. Since the impeachment, he doesn’t get invited to the White House.

    1. @Moderate American hahaha just watch how bad it will get, ignorance is bliss until you get the virus

  12. “No prolonged exposure…”

    Except for aboard Airforce One, a crowded, small, airtight, metal tube with recycled oxygen.

    Unless I’m just ignorant to what “prolonged exposure” means exactly.

  13. When you say how many days it has been Trump has been the President sounds like a Prison Sentance.
