    Bill is in hold, biggest corporate giveaway in history. Even included clause allowing Treasury Sec or Trump himself to personally decide what businesses to give handouts to, no Congressional approval needed, didn't need to publicly release information for six months. So Trump could give his own hotels a billion dollars in taxpayers' money and not tell us until after election.

    Wrote to North Korea offering assistance but tells US governors they're on their own.

    And that's exactly what he's been doing for awhile now, which is to leave the handling of this whole calamity up to governors to fend for themselves...this way, Trump believes he can't be held accountable for anything bad that happens yet still leaves the door open to predictably take credit for any success...this is and always has been his MO.

    197 million acres of Real estate on Earth.

    Wuhan bio lab and point of virus outbreak occupy the same 4 acre plot of land.

    Harvard professor secretly set up and illegally assisted Wuhan bio lab at a huge salary was arrested for that and other crimes against America which Deep State Harvard Politician Farm itself is under a wider investigation for, nearly on the day our government first heard of the virus.

    There's no such thing as coincidence.

    And Epstein didn't kill himself.

    Not an ounce of truth in your post.

    Rachel lied, Americans died.

    The young people were irresponsible. But far worse was the governor who invited them to come party. Now they are back home spreading virus.

    Wasn't so obvious to me. I honestly thought you probably, but not with certainty, meant North Korea. My bad.

    Trump administration 'cut job of CDC expert in China who could have warned about coronavirus threat weeks earlier'
    • Dr. Linda Quick, an American medical epidemiologist, was the last person to hold a CDC public health position embedded in China's disease control agency
    • Quick left the job, funded by the Center for Diseases and Control, in July, according to four sources
    • The first cases of the coronavirus later emerged, some as early as November, as the position went unfilled by the Trump administration
    • Had the position been filled, sources say, it could have provided real-time updates about the outbreak and warned about the growing threat, sources say
    • The updates could have come as the Chinese government tamped down on the release of information and provided erroneous assessments

    Trump should go back to what he does best, lying to his wife and cheating small businessmen out of their payment for construction services on his hotels and cheating students out of a quality Trump University education. Oh, let's not forget cheating on his taxes.

    FWIW, Cuomo is acting/sounding much more "presidential" than Trump.

    And nonsense, scientifically. Trump is toxic, not viral.

    You know there are other reasons for people to go to the beach than just ''to party''.
    Maybe someone had a good reason. I certainly did Saturday.

    Nobody is talking about you. It's people who cluster in large groups that are the problem.
    You? I doubt you have it in you to do anything wrong.
    You are the kind of beach goer that beach towns that depend on tourists want.
