Trump administration was alerted about COVID-19 concerns in ‘real time’ by Americans working at WHO: report

You can always tell when President Trump did it right and the despicables know it.

The propaganda machine cranks up and we are treated to a bunch of "source familiar with the situation" generic, unspecific reports of how the President could, shoulda, woulda.

 

You can always tell when President Trump did it wrong because he stands in front of the camera and tells the world what the did.

 

Explain to us how he did it right when he defunded the pandemic research and response teams that were situated in China and Africa?.

The PREDICT project funding was discontinued in September of last year, 2 months before covid-19 was first seen.

 

I just want to get fucked rough

 

Tell you what.
Rather than spend the next several days going through all the despicable propaganda and bullshit, Shooter would have you listen to this discussion between Maher and Crenshaw. They pretty much cover the whole despicable propaganda agenda about Trump fucking up. It's 14 minutes long, but well worth the time.

And the Predict program funding was set to end in 2019, and that date was picked 5 years before, in 2014 when the program was funded for its second 5 year run.
If Congress thought it was so important when they cut any of the new budgets, you know, from 2014 to 2020, they could have added in the funding, just as they did other programs that the Trump administration, for whatever reason, did not propose funding in their budget proposals.

You might recall, all budget bills start in the house. The President proposes, the house disposes, and the Senate votes. Then the President can either sign it or veto it or let it become law without his signature. Basic civics.

If you really think your hindsight is so powerfully right, you must also realize that Trump doesn't own this one by himself. Congress owns it as well.

 

Yes, I watched the vid, just another republican politician defending donnie.


Congress under the guidance of trump owns it.

Do you really have to ask why they didn't get another 5 year extension....really?????.

The Predict Project was started by Barry O in 2009, it then got it's second funding in 2014 under Barry O.

Are you starting to get the jist of where this is going????.

Everything that Barry O put into place has been trashed by your messiah .....everything.

So of course the project was going to be trashed.......hell, that's another $200,000,000 that can go towards the next slush fund for the 1% of elites, so the millionaires and billionaires can get another tax deduction.

 

Well, your propaganda spew pretty much ends any reasoned discussion we were going to have. My "Messiah" indeed.

Again; the President proposes a budget to the House of Representatives. The house puts together a budget and passes it. The senate votes on it. Assuming it passes both houses, it goes to the president to sign, veto, or let become law without his signature.

That's how it works. That's how its worked pretty much from the beginning.

The only time it can be said that that President "owns" the budget is if both houses of Congress have majorities in the same party as the President.

Since 2018 the House has been controlled by despicables (read Nancy Pelosi).

This means that any budget coming out of the house is NOT controlled by the president. Especially not now.
Speaker of the house "not one dime, not now, not ever" Pelosi controls it.

So you see, it matters not if President Trump wanted to kill the predict program because it was an Obama program, or because he wanted his cronies to get bigger tax breaks.

The president does not have final say on the budget or what is in it. The President can sign it, veto it, or let it be enacted without his signature.

The point is, if you must point at Trump for this failure, point also at the despicables and in particular Nancy Pelosi.

And by the way, the predict project has its origins in 2005, as a direct result of the Bird Flu epidemic. It was initially funded by college grants, then by the Federal Government. The Obama administration funded it in 2014 for 5 years, through 2019.

So it is incorrect to say that Trump "cut funding" for this program, especially to say that he cut funding for it two months before Covid-19 surfaced. What Trump did, was nothing. He did not fund the program, he let it run out.
And so did Congress.​

 

‘Living in a failed state’: Devastating column slams Trump’s administration for being ‘too corrupt or stupid to head off mass suffering’

Yeah sure sure @shootersa. You are a bunch of liars one and all.



Columnist systematically dismantles Dan Crenshaw’s viral defense of Trump

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/04/co...mantles-dan-crenshaws-viral-defense-of-trump/

 

Triggered!
Excellent!

 

To

It's one of those "God blessum for the effort" situations. I used to research conservative defenses of Trump's actions and policies, and found the errors, misinterpretations, misquotes, and fabrications. I would show this to my conservative friend and expect them to delete their post. That's what liberal friends do when they discover they've posted something untrue. Conservatives never do. They'll defend it as "triggering snowflakes", which somehow ennobles repeating falsehoods.

It's just not worth the effort.

 

Shooter has previously noted that when triggered, rear admiral butt nugget can be counted on to copy n paste lengthy articles in reaction. He has done so here.

The despicable propaganda agenda item of "President Trump failed to act decisively early in this crisis and its killing us now" has been systematically dismantled by the facts.
Despicables don't care.
Get Trump is the point.

As evidenced by Joe Bidens criticisms, Pelosi's house actions and in particular, despicable spew since this started.

Trump could personally develop, produce, and distribute a cure for this thing and despicables would spin a reason to bitch about it.

 

You've gotten trigger happy, so there's no reason no reason to think you actually believe that. You might be saying that just to upset someone you don't know and will never meet.

If Trump were to "personally develop, produce, and distribute a cure for this thing," there would be great celebration by all, liberals included.

Trump has been judged for what he does, which is mostly quite poor. It's nothing personal. He's just another rich old white guy and US politics is full of them. Unfortunately, Trump is not going to personally develop, produce, and distribute a cure for this thing. He's not even capable of understanding the people who can do those things. It would be cool if Trump really was the conglomeration of Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs, the miracle working businessman who could bring a billionaire's common sense to government, who wouldn't like that? Imagine how much easier this pandemic would be if Trump had repealed Obamacare in 30 days and replaced it with better health insurance, which covered everybody at a lower premium. That would certainly have been better than having a President who discovered 30 days into his term, "No one knew health care was so complicated." Really? Somebody must have known.

It's too late in the game to complain the other side is not playing fair.
