Dont Blame Trump, he inherited this mess

It is true that we cannot blame Trump alone for the most deadly presidential failure in any of our lifetimes at least. The people who voted for Trump and the ones who continue to support also have about 50,000 American deaths on their hands.

‘Narcissistic psychopath’ Trump has forced the White House to live in an ‘alternate reality’ amid coronavirus: columnist

In an op-ed for The Intercept this Wednesday, James Risen writes that President Trump is spouting quackery and hatred just like “medieval demagogue” during a 14th century plague.

“Major catastrophes lay bare the truth about our leaders,” Risen writes. “Trump’s criminally negligent, chaotic handling of the Covid-19 pandemic has exposed, once and for all, that he is a corrupt, narcissistic psychopath.”

Risen contends that Trump is surrounded by enablers, not only in the White House but also in the White House press corps “who daily act as his Greek chorus. Instead of ignoring his lies and outrageous statements, they dutifully cover his Covid-19 press conferences and tweets as if they were the serious, coherent statements of a genuine national leader.”

According to Risen, this serves as a boost to Trump’s “disinformation campaign,” which could result in thousands of additional infections and death from coronavirus.

Also acting as Trump’s enablers are the government’s top public health professionals, according to Risen, who have been forced to pretends that Trump’s coronavirus strategy has been sound.

“The result is that the White House is stuck in a surreal alternate reality in which reporters and government officials continue to do their jobs as if the president were not mad as a hatter,” Risen writes.

Why is Trump seizing PPE shipments ordered by hospitals cities and states?

And what is Trump doing with them?

Sending them to China, the trade deals aren't finished yet so he's greasing the deal with your PPE's.

Another way we can blame Trump for the tens of thousands of lives he lost is by the thousands of lives Dr Sara Cody did save when she found their first case of Coronavirus community spread and ordered a lock down.

U.S. Nears 50,000 Deaths From Coronavirus, as More Than 3,000 Die on Thursday Alone

The U.S. coronavirus death toll looks certain to shoot above 50,000 Friday, with the latest figures from Johns Hopkins University showing that 49,963 people have lost their lives. The numbers also show that there have been 869,172 confirmed infections in the country, though the true number of deaths and cases are likely to be significantly higher due to delays in testing and inconsistent local criteria for reporting deaths. The Washington Post’s disease tracker showed that over 3,100 people lost their lives in the U.S. on Thursday alone—a daily figure that was significantly higher than those earlier in the week. Around the world, the Johns Hopkins figures show over 2.7 million cases have been reported as well as 190,000 deaths.

Republicans worry about Democrats achieving a permanent majority. If more Republicans follow Trump's advice on COVID-19, the permanent majority will come sooner than expected.

If we open for business, like Trump wants us to, the daily death toll will rise considerably. Republicans who think they will not die from COVID-19 think many more dead is acceptable. They forget that people over 65 years old are a Republican constituency. That will change quickly if most of them conclude that the Republican Party thinks they are an acceptable sacrifice to get the economy moving again.

Yes, I assure you from my old EMT days if you inject disinfectants and/or expose your lungs to UV light you will die.

I have fought bullies all my life. And one thing that is just really common with them is when you really take the fight to them a lot of times they just lose their nerve. And its not even like you are kicking their ass or even can. It is the reason they are bullies is because they are scared to begin with. But no matter what the dynamics behind it once someone loses their nerve in s fight they give up. And then they are done as bullies. Which is the only thing Trump had going for him.

Donald Trump wimps out of press briefing for the second day in a row

For the second day in a row, President Donald Trump will not be holding a coronavirus press briefing as he has done for the past month.

This past week, Trump suggested that the COVID-19 taskforce look into injecting disinfectant like Lysol into their body to cure the virus.

“I see the disinfectant — where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning?” Trump said, while looking at the doctors. The following day, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany issued a statement saying Trump’s words had been taken “out of context.”

When Trump was asked about his disinfectant claims on Friday, he told reporters that he was asking the question “sarcastically” — “just to see what would happen.”

“The White House just called a travel photo lid so, for the second day in a row, no coronavirus task force briefing,” the White House correspondent Monica Alba for NBC. “The one Friday was the shortest to date, and the president didn’t take any questions there. Will be interesting to see if one is added for tomorrow.”

This would not happen in a country that is truly great. And never would have happened when Obama was president.

Trump administration hijacked 5 million masks from veterans hospitals: chief physician

The chief physician overseeing the Veterans Health Administration acknowledged that the Trump administration redirected a shipment of masks to the national stockpile after officials denied claims that health care workers were forced to work with inadequate protective equipment.

“I had 5 million masks incoming that disappeared,” Richard Stone, the executive in charge of the veterans health system, told The Washington Post.

Stone said the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) directed vendors to send the masks to the agency rather than the VA so it could replenish the dwindling national stockpile. As a result, Stone said he was forced to move to “austerity levels” at some of the system’s hospitals.

“The supply system was responding to FEMA,” he said. “I couldn’t tell you when my next delivery was coming in.”

After VA Secretary Robert Wilkie appealed to the agency, FEMA provided the VA with 500,000 masks, about 10% of the shipment they ordered.

Numerous governors and hospital officials have similarly reported that FEMA confiscated ventilators and protective equipment sent to their states. Some officials have started smuggling supplies from China, going as far as disguising the shipments in food trucks.

The lack of a steady supply has forced the VA to limit employees treating coronavirus patients to just one mask per day. Other hospital workers have been instructed to wear their masks for up to a week and staple it back together if the straps snap. A recent memo from a top health system official urged regional directors to prepare for “scenarios that permit extended mask use, permit limited re-use, permit staff to bring in their own facemasks and N95 respirators and allow decontamination of used N95 respirators.”

VA officials had denied staff complaints about inadequate supplies, but the virus has wreaked havoc on the nations’s largest health-care system. About 1,900 health workers have contracted the virus and 20 have died, according to The Associated Press. Another 3,600 health workers are in quarantine after being exposed.

The Labor Department said it has launched an investigation into a union complaint alleging that one VA hospital ordered employees suspected of being infected to continue to work. Nurses in Florida and Georgia have staged protests outside VA facilities in response to the supply shortages.

“As a nurse during this pandemic, my job is to protect and heal veterans but without proper protective equipment, I cannot safely do my job that has been my calling for 26 years,” Dana Horton, the National Nurses United Atlanta chief nurse representative, said. “I know working without the proper protections, I am endangering myself, my co-workers, the veterans I care for and our community by possibly exposing others to COVID-19.”

The VA previously insisted that there have been no problems.

“All VA facilities are equipped with essential items and supplies to handle coronavirus cases, and all VA employees have the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment, as per CDC guidelines,” VA press secretary Christina Noel said in response to scrutiny from the House and Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committees. “VA is monitoring the supply levels at every facility every day to make sure facilities have adequate PPE for the number and types of patients they are seeing, and if a facility were to fall below stock levels, the facility could be cross-leveled by another VA facility or region.”

House Veteran’s Affairs Chairman Mark Takano, D-Calif., and the panel’s Democratic members sent a letter to Vice President Mike Pence, the head of the White House coronavirus task force, complaining that the White House Office of Management and Budget had blocked their requests for documents related to hospital operations.

“We have found that the information reported to the Committees through VA’s daily and weekly briefings — especially with regard to availability of personal protective equipment — stands in stark contrast to what we have heard from VA employees and read in the media regarding PPE shortages at VA medical facilities,” the letter said. “The lack of specificity in VA’s ongoing briefings for the committee not only poses risks of potential harm to veterans but also leads us to a simple conclusion: Your administration has hamstrung VA’s ability to ensure Congress is fully informed of the full extent to which it is prepared to care for veterans.”

Takano added that the committee members “don’t need to waste any more of Secretary Wilkie’s and Stone’s valuable time with further requests for these documents when it is clear that the White House and OMB are holding up their release.”

Just remember this. Trump said he would make America great again. So is more cases of COVID 19 in the US than the next 5 countries combined "great"? 55,000 dead. But its not a million. That's the standard?

Ain't nobody else's fault but his own.

Intel Agencies Warned Trump of Coronavirus in More Than a Dozen Briefings: Report

Over a dozen classified reports that were presented to President Trump in January and February included stark warnings about the spread of the coronavirus, The Washington Post reports. In the President’s Daily Brief (PDB), a top-secret report filled with information about national security issues that is handed over to the president each morning, intelligence agencies reportedly sounded the alarm for weeks that China was concealing the extent of the outbreak, as well as how rapidly it spreads, but the president continued to actively play down its threat. The report also laid bare the very real possibility of severe economic and political ramifications as a result of the outbreak, according to the Post. Trump, however, dismissed the message, the Post reports. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which oversees the PDB, told the Post that “the detail of this is not true.”
