Woodward: Trump Failed Himself, He Failed The Country And The GOP | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Even with actual words of Donald Trump confessing he knew what exactly how deadly the virus is, it won’t change a single Trump supporters mind.
@BJ Smith You’re living and breathing proof that you can’t fix stupid 🤣
@Vaughn Besley If you do actually read the information from our government then how many deaths are there as of today?
@BJ Smith The irony 😭 come back after November.
@Jeffrey Dahmer She was aware that the Chinese people already in your country were not bringing in the virus. They were being subjected to the racism.
@Jeffrey Dahmer like the party Trump throws with Putin in Moscow! Like those kind of parties! LMFAO geez you’re sooo stupid! No wonder the world keeps laughing at Trump and his supporters!
Trump has always failed himself and anyone else connected to him. Always.
@Stephen David Bailey why are they alternative?
@John O Vote red and end the unreasonable !!!!!!
@rob head Don’t be obtuse.
@Stephen David Bailey I was just think the same about you!
@Emily Maiden guess you missed the point. I was responding to a claim that Trump is broke, so I quoted a few statistics. I agree with your Comment, I too don’t judge a person by their bank account
He has NO friends. He hung onto Woodward because no one else would listen to him.
That’s true
That’s the truth. Trump will talk to ANYONE who will listen to him, because he’s SO desperate for an audience. He is a sick, twisted, evil little man.
@Bonnie Bucklaw you must of taken some good drugs…..your comments and spelling make zero sense
@Bonnie Bucklaw Welcome to youtube. What prompted you to join two months ago?
he needs no friends he is white, a certain number of money people will back him without even listening to him. sad huh?
He failed so bigly, it was yuuuuuge. America is getting totally covfefe’d.
@Nota Bene ….. Please post this EVERYWHERE!! Awesome! 👍😷!!!
If after 4 years his slogan is stil MAGA, it means that he hasn’t done anything in that time, his regime has been a royal MAGAfailure.
Sad
@Babba Ganoush This is the guy who thinks he can go toe to toe with Russia, North Korea, and China. What a stooge.
All he does is like covfefe😂
some still cant face the reality that their guy failed
Sleepy Joe Biden thinks he’s running for senate buttercup!
✌🔴✌🌹
@Jeffrey Dahmer Nothing you say, dude. The truth is the truth.
@Fred A Yes, It is what it is !!
Donald Trump cannot face the reality that he has failed, and on top of it, he doesn’t care!
Bob Woodward answered his own question. Yes, if told the truth, Americans WOULD have “rallied around.” That would have unified the country, and Trump doesn’t want to unify the country. He wants to divide and even splinter Americans from each other.
Yup.
When we finally get to the truth about Trump’s objective, we’ll find Trump has been acting at the direction of Vlad ‘The Poisoner’ Putin.
@John Swo All the Time. SMH.
Watch when you finally get Trump’s Taxes, his School Record, and especially his Health records.
Then maybe they Wake up and throw out the Kool-aid 🤔
I dont think so, but he is clueless, stupid and ignorant… therefor putin put him up to do nothing, think about it, who else gain from americas division and downfall 😬
Divide & conquer was always his plan .. from day 1 the shocking thing for me is that this was not obvious to everyone . Stay safe 😷🙏🙏🙏
Trump needs to resign or 25 th Amendment…even if loses he will be in White House till Jan 20…he can make even more of a mess…
For them to invoke the 25th amendment the VP (Pense) has to be willing to agree with the Spreaker of the House (Pelosi) that the president is no longer fit to serve. I don’t see that happening, Pense doesn’t have the ethics and fortitude to go against trump in such an action He was supposedly the head of the pandemic council( can’t remember what they called it) and i saw him speak once about what that committee was doing, if he was head he would have been orchestrating PPE and all the other medically related needs across the country but he sat back and let Trump do nothing
Ivanka told her daddy to pick Pense for VP because he is willing to sit in the background and be unseen but able to bring the evangelical vote with him.
I continue to predict:
1. If Trump wins he and his cult will go on a rampage of revenge and destruction.
2. If Trump loses he and his cult will go on a rampage of revenge and destruction.
I’m actually more scared of the lame duck 2 months because tRump and republicans will do a slash and burn policy
American People should demand a resignation
You are misunderstanding what Trump meant when he said he didn’t want people to panic. He meant he didn’t want the STOCK MARKET TO FALL. He played down the virus because his measure of success was the Stock Market, not people’s lives! Even on the 19th phone call, when Bob is trying to explain to him that the people are concerned about the virus, he still keeps asking/saying about the stock market coming back…….
YOUR PRESIDENT SACRIFICED YOUR LIVES FOR THE STOCK MARKET!
Frickin Bingo!!!
@Nota Bene I’ve seen this, or variations of it, and never tire of reading it.
THIS is the truth. Trump only cares about the stock market, so that his rich friends will still support him.
@Kiskispal You. Are. So. On. Point!👍 #staysafe
They’re his supporters. The stock market people (if there’s a better name for them, let me know!) are his supporters and the only supporters he cares about.
trump 4 years in solitary confinement.
That’s a start!
Our “president” warned us about immigrants coming here taking our jobs but couldn’t properly warned us about covid-19.
And the best part is asylum seekers can’t even take your jobs because anyone who employs legally can’t even hire them. So the whole panic over jobs is BS.
@Mike C not even just jobs people won’t do. They can’t even get an above the table job until they finish their immigration work. It’s not like they can steal legal jobs. It’s so ridiculous that people are afraid. They can’t even get welfare!!
Trump warned the suburban house wife’s of minorities living and raiding their neighborhoods, but didn’t sound the alarm on covid-19.
And by “warned us” you mean encouraged panic… hmmm.
@james jones of course 😂😂
He is only succeeding at damaging and corrupting everything that he touches…
45 corrupted no one ,those that are with him and up under the bus was like that when they met.
Getting too close to Trump’s fecal iceberg of corruption always makes a person dirty. Trump passes on corruption like it was an STD!
MAE Gary I didn’t say everyone, I said everything…although I am sure that he had some “weaker links” to do things they wouldn’t have done otherwise! 😂
Yep. He is the Midas of Manure.
Trump on coronavirus: _”Nothing more could be done.”_
He was right. When you intend to do nothing, nothing more _can_ be done. Given the choice between watching Fox News & golfing, or doing something about a virus which has killed two hundred thousand US citizens on their home turf… Fox & golf it is then.
And people are still going to vote for him? And Americans have the brass balls to claim they live in the best country in the world?
[Edit: I a word out]
Doing nothing, long weekend golf trips, and holding beer hall rallies where you spew lies didn’t stop the spread of the Trump pandemic.
American here among us and do NOT lump us all into a sum of stupidity to being braggarts about how “great” our nation is….We know it’s not. Shove your “brass balls” comment.
Trust me, only fools have believed that myth. Just like tRump, they say the same thing over and over again until they believe it.
People are still going to vote for him, and I hope even through covid quarantine they see that it’s not the place it purports itself to be, and that that’s what their vote will amount to.
To Willie’s? He only cares about now and up to Nov 3. After that he will finish excusing and bragging.
That’s how trump handles problems. “They will go away, like a miracle”.
boatnikdog . Well you know he and his ignorant supporters believe he is the chosen one.
That and “we’ll see what happens.”
I wish Trump and his cronies would all go away magically.
Hence, 6 bankruptcies. Go figure.
Everything Trump touches dies. Covid deaths yesterday (Trump admin #s):
USA: 1,027
Canada: 9
Haiti: 0
Nigeria: 5
Chad: 1
Trump is the most incompetent leader in the world by orders of magnitude.
Everything Trump touches dies.
Everything Trump touches GROWS!
It is called turning a pandemic into genocide
Yes, genocide : through lies, mis information, fear mongering, firing the good people, inciting riots, holding corona rallies…… Etc etc etc
Correct….been saying same for MONTHS……TRAITOROUS
TREASONIST TTRRUUMMPP
At least Trump’s getting something done! Putin got his money’s worth from Trump for sure!
@Matthew Roeser NOT AT ALL!!!!!!!
Poor Bob Woodward…..not every day you acquire a stalker like THAT !!!!
Seriously, no compassion for the “little people”, it’s just us vs them, everyman for themself..I’ve got mine, good luck with your life.
Trump: Yes, record me while I say the most stupid, ludicrous, tratorist things .
He didn’t ‘fail’ himself. He did exactly as is his nature: to enrich himself and his spawn/posey at the expense of others under the guise of ‘Make America Great Again’.
