Look, Trump has a point of view, I just don't understand his brilliance. I mean, the cons do all the time even though he always lies. They must know something I clearly don't.
I only see a man who doesn't give a F*** about humanity. Where's the Illuminati when you need them? Or the Knights Templar? Or the Pastafarians? Science? That's just fake news. The earth is flat. The polar ice caps haven't shrunk. Carbon dioxide hasn't increased in our atmosphere. There is no hole in the ozone layer.

Makes sense that he'd jump at the opportunity to label himself as a wartime president.

He's spent the last 3 years making statements like "enemy of the people". His entire propaganda campaign requires there be some "enemy" for his followers to fear.

He does have similarities to Jefferson Davis, just not the ones you would hope for

He can call himself whatever he wants, but when he answers a question about shortages of PPE and providing healthcare providers with what they need to do their jobs in response to the impending health care crisis by saying, "we are not a shipping clerk," he is failing his mission...and leading us into a deeper hole...

I know, but it isn't just gloves and masks...our biggest concern is medical response....

there should be coordination to bolster our medical services capacity: expanding the number of beds/rooms; building new or converting existing facilities into temporary non-emergency med service facitlities to free up rooms that can be used as ICUs; ensuring adequate supplies of PPE, for our medical care providers and first responders; managing the supply chains of critical medical supplies and equipment so places where there are surpluses can ship to those places that have critical shortages, across state lines, that's just one element of a multi-layered 50 state response...others could be food supply management ...mobilization of peace-keepers...

it's gonna take real war-like coordination, from top down...

It is in federal law: FEMA is the ultimate governmental authority for national emergencies...F = federal...requires setting national standards for emergency response so that we, state and local govts, are not working against each other, short-term and long-term planning, identifying hazards and appropriate responses; coordinating distribution of human and material resources...

doesn't even look like he's set up an Emergency Command Center yet, a week or so after declaring an emergency...


why did he sign/invoke his authority under the Defense Production Act, which gives him power to direct private companies to produce equipment and supplies to respond to national emergencies?

it seems he is just going through the motions, making pronouncements like POTUS but with little follow though. Just three weeks ago, he (and Pence) said they were going to do a lot a testing in the next few days, and when that didn't happen, he blamed Obama...still haven't rolled out a national testing protocol...

Fauci's expression/facepalm when twitler said "The State Department, or should I say Deep State Department...." was priceless.

With all due respect, my friend, is it the function of government to put on a happy face for the first two months of a global health crisis? Placing thousands at risk?

Asking for a friend... 😎

it IS a reasonable reaction if your expectation is to let a lot of poor elderly peeps die...they are not important...and the recovery will be so much easier without a lot of nearly dead weight to carry around...especially in those blue states where the numbers are so high...we'll get off the bench when more red states feel some pain...it's a war, baby...Red vs Blue
