    't blame

    Obama won twice

    Can't blame him from Trump winning

    And that's exactly what Trump and his supporters want, For Obama to come out in the open.

    People, you need to settle down. This whole virus thing will be over by April and there will be no more than 60K dead, just like a normal flu season. No need to overreact.

    This guy continues to embarrass himself, and us, on a daily basis.

    Since we know there’s eventually a “What he meant to say was...” for most of the insanely stupid things he says on a daily basis...Can someone please give me the version for how he’s blaming President Obama for leaving broken and bad tests for a virus that didn’t exist until nearly 3 years after he left office?

    The New York Times is now reporting that "senior" Trump officials have similarly been pressuring United States intelligence agencies to find "evidence" for the far-right conspiracy theory that the virus responsible for COVID-19 was the product of a Chinese government laboratory, rather than a naturally occurring virus that jumped from animal to human hosts. The Times identifies the leader of those efforts as still-unindicted Trump Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

    its not about that, there seems to be this misguided beleif that the silent have more courage. The people's perception of politicians are individuals that will say/do whatever. Democrats repeatedly come across as p*****s

    Trump supports armed insurrection. Did not see that coming!

    Trump should travel down to Florida and Georgia and dine out with the unwashed masses, to show his support for the opening businesses. (It is like supporting the Vietnam War, while actively avoiding serving there.)

    Or STFU.

    In his Thursday afternoon briefing, Trump responded to questions by insisting that he had evidence giving him a “high degree of confidence” that SARS-CoV-2 originated at the lab. What was that evidence? “I can’t tell you,” said Trump. “I’m not allowed to tell you.”

    The idea that Donald Trump had discovered a last-minute respect for intelligence sources might be somewhat comforting, if anything he was saying seemed to square with the information that intelligence agencies were actually producing. A statement released on Thursday on behalf of the entire intelligence community makes it clear that the agencies agree with the broad scientific consensus.

    However, it’s clear that the White House has been pushing these agencies to link the origin of the virus to the Wuhan lab in order to support Trump’s contention that China, rather than his own incompetence, is to blame for the unprecedented disaster and 64,000 deaths in the United States. Directly blaming China for the virus is also part of a larger theme in which Trump’s campaign intends to paint Joe Biden as being connected to the Chinese government.

    Only after former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, called on him on Thursday to lower the flag at the White House to honor the dead did Mr. Trump say he would consider the idea. “I don’t think anybody could feel any worse than I do about all of the death and destruction that’s so needless. Nobody,” Mr. Trump said. “But I also have to make sure that we handle the situation well.”
