Trump’s Attacks On WHO Contradict His Own Words, And The Facts – Day That Was | MSNBC

At today’s coronavirus briefing, President Donald Trump repeatedly criticized the World Health Organization’s dealings with China, and accused it of not acting soon enough to help countries deal with the COVID-19 outbreak. In response, he said he was cutting off funding to WHO. However, taking a look at Trump’s own words from the past few months shows him both praising the WHO’s response to China, and ignoring the WHO’s advice. And Trump’s push to reopen the economy comes as WHO issues guidelines for when countries should consider it safe to do so. The U.S. has not yet met any of those guidelines. Aired on 04/14/2020.

  1. Trumpy Dumpy is just flailing around EXACTLY like usual to find someone to blame for his own ignorance and incompetence.

    1. Deplorable As an aside how do you get a job like you as an influencer? Is it good money? I have been laid off so I would like to know.

    2. Trump clearly started in the 4/14/20 live broadcast his reasons. This edit misconstrues his actual actions. It is a 6 week investigation. Just watch his actual statements!!!! Trump stated that if the who would of investigated properly the lives lost around the world could of been less by 20 fold.

    3. @Bobby Swanson trump stated! So what? If he hadn’t been a total incompetent lives would have been saved. Or do you think the WHO only affects the US?
      Other countries have done a better job because they aren’t led by a moron.

    4. @Deplorable wow we.
      Ok now I will take a little time research and give the internet truth.
      Stand by.
      Need time.

    5. Bobby Swanson …….as usual Trump is throwing the blame to someone else because of his incompetent inaction from the beginning.

      We all saw his pathetic diatribe early on. He did not take it seriously and suggested it would go away like a miracle, and that he would have everything open by a Easter.

      His lack of understanding and failure to take proper action was and is always on full display.

      The coward will never take responsibility for his mishandling of any situation.

      He is his own worst enemy !

    1. @Deplorable 🤔….u tell me….YOU seem to know more about her sexuality than I do….mmm, do u want her to b a man cuzzzz, “YOU” like men 🤷 do u find her sexier as a man? Please, do tell me about ur fantasy with Michelle as ur male lover…

    2. tanyacv1 : I don’t know where you’re from, but I’m sitting here in a town of 900 people in the rural midwest. I guess in November you’ll find out just how many do NOT want the democrat / liberal alternative we are witnessing right now. THAT, has NOTHING to do with Trump !

    3. tanyacv1 : So, if you don’t want the democrat alternative you’re lame and a fool ? WOW ! All you’ve given is rhetoric and insults, which are getting quite comical around here. Also, not once did you ask why so many people do not want that democrat alternative they are witnessing right now.

    1. he is not a dr .. fauci is and has lied and kept saying we should not worry for virus..he works for gates..vaccines are killing people in africa, but u wont listen adn i will not listen to you never

    1. The six times bankrupted fake billonaire, felonious tax evader, habitual liar, gutless draft dodger, creepy pervert, depraved adulterer, 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧 collaborator and self-proclaimed 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 Donald John Trump will fortunately be the last 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐫 in US history to be arbitrarily selected by the completely antiquated and totally anachronistic Electoral College.
      The last scrap of 𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐯𝐞 legislation left in the Constitution is finally about to be abolished.

    1. Rene Curry wasn’t a problem then, try shutting Dow the country in winter, over 20000 dead now would be nothing, compared to the many hundred thousands who would be dead now! Use your 🧠!

  2. That thing is a complete joke – Best wishes to sane Americans, you make up the huge majority & you all see straight through him

    1. Andrew Austin name the virus for the incompetent loser since he’s always trying to put his name on everything!! #trumpvirus

    2. @Crystal Giddens Where’s all this panic? I see concern and tragedy. No panic. Are you simply panicking because anti-trump sentiment is growing as quickly as this pandemic?

    3. @Crystal Giddens Since, you’re here reinforcing your hatred of liberals…does that mean you’re suffering from LDS(Liberal Derangement Syndrome).

    4. @Elizabeth notthe queen So you really think Biden will win over Trump? That leads me to question your mental stability.

    5. Crystal Giddens………..no one bothers to read a cut and paste from a troll ! What a waste of space.

  3. “It would have been so easy to be truthful”, said the biggest liar ever sitting in the white house. Memorable words.

    1. he is not a dr .. fauci is and has lied and kept saying we should not worry for virus..he works for gates..vaccines are killing people in africa, but u wont listen adn i will not listen to you never

  4. “So easy to be truthful” – That’s rich coming from a senior man who wears make up and has told more than 16000+ documented lies during his occupancy of the WH.

    1. he is not a dr .. fauci is and has lied and kept saying we should not worry for virus..he works for gates..vaccines are killing people in africa, but u wont listen adn i will not listen to yiou never

  5. Did Donald Trump said (they could have been truthful)..Really!!!!! If he was Pinocchio
    his nose would wrap-around the world 9 times.

    1. Henry hill you care so much about the past but you don’t know how many elderly people are suffering you are incompetent to other people and focus all your attention on trump and most of the things said about him are lies this is a biased news source which means you cannot take them fully for granted you are being brainwashed

  6. Trump has never and will never blame himself, for anything, and will always take credit for others success. So yes blame the WHO🙄

    1. @Félicien Forgues I was referring to the fact that he is trying to blame the WHO(Who?) and that he tries to blame Obama for EVERYTHING!

    2. MsWheely WHO clearly supports China after they said it is not person to person and to not close borders which led to many other countries getting infected WHO is owned by the Rothschild with also owns all the banks and they supported the nazis in ww2 trump is not who is at fault here it is WHO which is at fault the USA puts millions of tax dollars into WHO while China puts little WHO deserves to be blamed and deserves backlash. QAnon ( not a quote just anyone who sees this look into it )

    3. Elizabeth notthe queen how is he a troll he’s saying that you Democrat’s or liberals whatever support corrupt places and organizations you don’t just say something rude to make him change his mind all your doing is making yourself look like a complete moron who cannot debate properly

    1. @Mike Cash is that the aquarium cleaner trump told the hillbillies to drink, the stuff that killed them?
      you first cleetus.

    2. @Noises Boy, you are way up there on the IQ scale, aren’t you. BTW, How many deaths are on the dems hands, for scaring people re the cure for this phony plandemic. You are lucky that your MSM is equally guilty, so they sweep it under the rug.

  7. “It would be easy to be truthful”….I almost fell out of my chair when I heard that sentence coming out of that orange face. The king of liars, deflection, deceit and denial is telling someone else that they should tell the truth. If trump ever told the truth about anything he’d explode into a million pieces…he feeds on lies!!!!

    1. Trump clearly started in the 4/14/20 live broadcast his reasons. This edit misconstrues his actual actions. It is a 6 week investigation. Just watch his actual statements!!!! Trump stated that if the who would of investigated properly the lives lost around the world could of been less by 20 fold.

  8. *Trumpy Dumpy is just flailing around EXACTLY like usual to find someone to blame for his own ignorance and incompetence.*

    1. @Philip J Fry typical Trump supporters, what does this has to do with open borders, he knew coronavirus was coming and he say it wasn’t a big deal this was like the flu

    2. he is not a dr .. fauci is and has lied and kept saying we should not worry for virus..he works for gates..vaccines are killing people in africa, but u wont listen adn i will not listen to you never

    3. @agroeconomist 77 Typical Trump hater you have Trump derangement syndrome so you have to find a way to blame him for everything even if it rains or you step in some dogshit its Trump’s fault. Why did the WHO wait until March 12th to declare a pandemic after knowing since early January it was a problem and told countries not to close their borders to China and that there was no evidence of human transmission?

    4. @Philip J Fry Wanking has addled your brain, put away your nude pictures of trumpets slapper and pay attention to what is going on in the world instead.

  9. Basically, he MUST be held accountable/responsible by every one (authorities, voters, court, etc.) for everything he did wrong!

    1. Actually elections should be held again, because the one happened in around 2015 was quite staged(maybe the voters came into ballots themselves and vote, but they got a lot of brainwashing from that “Cambridge Analytica” which exploited deep vulnerabilities of most voters to get them to vote for trump by using personal data acquired from the social media)…So i guess it is not fair that he is still in white house after this big scandal was found out…

    2. @ms 3533 when you are sick, you certainly don’t take the advice of Trump, he has killed people with his suggestion. You are not that bright are you. Please educate yourself before making yourself look like a fool.

    3. @ΚΟΥΝΤΡΕΤ Σ. Μ.. Hello dear. In just a nutshell, yes you’re right. In fact he shouldn’t be there in the first place! To mention only 2 points: he is the most inept/incompetent “President” in history and the biggest pathological liar (to say the least!). But let’s, let’s hope for the next one (election). Regards and stay safe dear.

    4. @ms 3533, your comment doesn’t make any sense in regards to my question and doesn’t defend Drumpfs inactions and flawed decisions…

  10. Just when you thought the US could not be in any more trouble the orange skidmark finds a new level of stupid.

    1. he is not a dr .. fauci is and has lied and kept saying we should not worry for virus..he works for gates..vaccines are killing people in africa, but u wont listen adn i will not listen to you never

  11. “Mismanaging and covering up” always talking about himself. Truck Fump 2020. Register your postal votes NOW.

    1. @Bobby Swanson Do you realize how writing “would of investigated ” makes you look as illiterate and stupid as Trump. I bet you don’t even know what is wrong with your phrase! Pathetic. Where were you born and educated?

    2. You obviously have not watched even a minute of the live broadcasts if you are this misinformed.
