    I caught that too!!
    She asked trump why did you specifically say to me to ask China. He immediately backed off and said he did not ask anyone specifically.. you could see at that moment he realized he stepped into it( I am actually impressed by that )

    the body language gotten defensive. He literally could not wait to get away from that podium

    That was very cringeworthy, he knew he stepped in it.

    That slow walk off was pathetic, I bet he was fighting himself because he wanted to go back to the mic and really let it rip.

    The more I look at this clip the more I see.

    He was so proud of himself we he 1st unleashed that China blast, he starts smirking and then when she ask why did he specifically ask that question to her you can see his whole world crumble and onvce he realizes nobody is gonna let it go he just panics.

    Check out his face and body language when he turns left and enters the WH.

    He is utlerly defeated and knows he spit the bit.

    I would just use this clip as a web ad over the last week of the election.

    An utterley defeated man.

    Hot Take: if Hillary, Biden, or even Pence were POTUS we’d have 60000 fewer deaths today.

    I would like to believe that but I'm not sure. A lot of mistakes were made by a lot of people. The current collapse of stay at home orders and other steps to fight this virus aren't directly Trump's fault. He's not helping the situation and inflaming it but I'm not going to put all the blame on him.

    Imagining if Hillary Clinton was President I have the feeling while she would be more consistent in messaging and many times more organized in response I get the feeling she might've also been slow to respond. Consider that Cuomo and other Democratic politicians also underestimated how bad this might be back in early February. Clinton might've hesitated on a strong response early to try not to damage the economy. One thing I am sure of is if Clinton was President Congressional Republicans and Republicans governors would be fighting her every step of the way. We would be seeing more gun toting protests and this board would be exploding about "The Democratic / Clinton Virus".

    Yes, to pretend that people like Cuomo did zero mistakes is dangerous and makes people have more ammo to distrust the mainstream media. CNN needs to stop fanboying Cuomo because his brother is a host there. That's an uncomfortable relationship for a cable news network and a major political public figure. I criticize the insane relations Trump has with people like Hannity. It's wrong in the sense that people lose trust in your reporting. They need to stop that ****.

    And your last statement is hypothetically frightening. If Hillary Clinton were advising governors for stay at home orders and to shut down businesses, there literally would be a civil war.

    20K CV deaths for Hillary would be turned into the Greatest Tragedy in American History, by the same people who are giving Trump a walk.

    He was so flipped out that he started walking off the wrong way. When was the last time the fellow did that at one of these “trump-a-thon’s?”

    Without systematic testing, the effectiveness of social distancing is going to be limited IMO. It's like hiding in a cave and hoping the monster outside will go away, without being able to tell where it is.

    Test kits are needed, but since they don't have enough of them, local governments push social distancing because it's better than nothing.
