    Even inheriting shortfalls in the medical stockpiles from Obama and Biden, Trump handled the pandemic vastly better than Obama and Biden did.

    After three years it’s too late to complain about what he “inherited”. Trump failed miserably by failing to replenish.

    As you not voting or supporting tRUMP?
    As he is the actual leader, the impeached prez, during this far far worse pandemic. What say you? Are you going to stop supporting tRUMP even?

    His quick action saved thousands! He has been right the whole time about China!

    THANK YOU TO THE PATRIOTIC EMPLOYEES AT BRASKEM AMERICA! YOU’RE SAVING LIVES!:

    More than 40 employees at Braskem America in Pennsylvania volunteered to work, eat and sleep at the plant for 28 days straight in order to manufacture the raw materials used to make N95 masks, hospital gowns, and sanitary wipes. On Sunday, they got to go home for a while.

    Not all heroes wear capes.

    We didn't fall short of respirators actually needed nor hospital beds. Where we did fall short was N95 masks and PPE Obama/Biden used up but never replaced.

    THANK YOU Braskem America employees.

    An Australian author hit piece with no citations as to where she got the information, did she fly to the US just to get it? More crapola from the Huffing Paint Post fake news factory. I can't believe anyone falls for it. :roll:

    ALCINDOR: You held rallies in February and in March, and there are some Americans saying –

    TRUMP: I don’t know about rallies. I really don’t know about rallies. I know one thing: I haven’t left the White House in months, except for a brief moment to give a wonderful ship, the Comfort.

    ALCINDOR: You held a rally in March in North Carolina.

    TRUMP: I don’t know. Did I hold a rally? I’m sorry. I hold a rally. Did I hold a rally?

    How is it tRUMP supporters know absolutely nothing.
    It was only 2 days ago.

    Most uninformed.

    Nope...and the Supreme Court.

    Biden approved:

    "The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of [those that believe Trump handled the Wuhan Pandemic better than Obama did anything]." (Clinton)

    "We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of [those that believe Democrats can't handle a Pandemic better than Trump]." (Obama)

    Are you going to vote against all local State Democrats who didn't vote for and support State enterprises manufacturing enough masks and other equipment at the State level, ahead of this, and the next wave, or didn't predict ahead of time and bought enough, before they ordered people to cover their faces with inadequate scarves and dust masks and ****?

    You still have time before the next potential wave to make the appropriate State legislation and State Owned Enterprises in Blue States to manufacture needed safety gear should the foreign suppliers dry up; what are you going to do about it? Nothing, I know, haven't heard so much as one word from you are anyone (CNN, MSNBC...) about actually doing YOUR part should your Trumpet not hold the Blue State's peepee.

    “In mid-March, Fausnacht and Kline shut down the warehouse and sent their employees home. They had no other option: Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf ordered all businesses not deemed “life-sustaining” to close to slow the spread of the disease.

    But now the sewing machines are humming again. The business in Perkasie reopened Monday with four of its employees to sew reusable cloth masks, which in recent days have been recommended for common use by both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Wolf.” https://whyy.org/articles/rebels-wi...ake-coronavirus-masks-without-state-approval/

    So you're saying, the whole Q&A is made up.

    tRUMP never had that interview last Monday, April 20th..

    I don't think the only Fake News you trust has run the story. Faux tv.

    Edit: I am wrong.
    Here's a video in this link with Fox tv being the source of the video.

    https://www.cnsnews.com/article/was...street-party-chinatown-san-francisco-february

    ALCINDOR: You held rallies in February and in March, and there are some Americans saying —

    TRUMP: Oh, I don’t know — I don’t know about rallies. I really don’t know about rallies.

    ALCINDOR: You had about five rallies in February.

    TRUMP: I know one thing: I haven’t left the White House in months, except for a brief moment to give a wonderful ship, the Comfort —

    Will just chock it up to you limiting yourself to unreliable news sources.

    About US


    CNSNews reports the stories the liberal media refuse to cover.

    I linked top a biased RW news source this time.
    No more deflecting for you.
    Your welcome for allowing me to be your real source of news.

    We don't need masks anymore.
    tRUMP has a new cure.

    He added: "I see the disinfectant that 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? As you see, it gets in the lungs, it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that."
