In all honesty in no way can it ever be said that trump tried anything but to hide the v***s and later to make money from it.. look who he has running the health equipment distribution..

Let’s look at a short history of his statements from mid-January through mid-March. During that time there was plenty of information available to him. The US government knew. The US intelligence services knew. The CDC knew. Trump knew. He sent aid to China – some of the very things the US is now short of. Certain Republican congressmen were listening to the briefings and selling shares in anticipation of the coming disaster. They knew. He knew. The world knew. Other countries knew and were responding. And while he knew and was repeatedly warned about the issues, he chose to do nothing.

These are quotes. They are on the record. And he doesn’t get to pretend it never happened. Americans are dying because of his choices.

January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”

February 24: “The C****av***s is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”

February 25: “CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling C****av***s.”

February 25: “I think that's a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it. They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a v*****e.”

February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.”

February 26: “We're going very substantially down, not up.”

February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”

February 28: “We're ordering a lot of supplies. We're ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn't be ordering unless it was something like this. But we're ordering a lot of different elements of medical.”

March 2: “You take a solid flu v*****e, you don't think that could have an impact, or much of an impact, on c****a?”

March 2: “A lot of things are happening, a lot of very exciting things are happening and they’re happening very rapidly.”

March 4: “If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work — some of them go to work, but they get better.”

March 5: “I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work.”

March 5: “The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!”

March 6: “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down.”

March 6: “Anybody right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test gets a test. They’re there. And the tests are beautiful…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.”

March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”

March 6: “I don't need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn't our fault.”

March 8: “We have a perfectly coordinated and fine tuned plan at the White House for our attack on C****aV***s.”

March 9: “This blindsided the world.”..."

March 13: “To unleash the full power of the federal government in this effort today, I am officially declaring a national emergency, two very big words.”

March 13: “I don't take responsibility at all”

This doesn’t cover the lies, mis- and dis- information that he has spread at his “briefings” since then. Fact check them. It’s horrific. Any other president in the last 100 years would ask the experts and act on their advice. Not Donald Trump. People are dying because of what he has done and said. And it’s not stopping. Yesterday he suggested that the shortages were due to nurses and doctors were stealing masks, gloves and supplies. He’s had people follow his “hunches” on treatments and die. He’s claimed there are no shortages while competing with state governments at auction. He’s touted his “numbers” as entertainment figures at the briefings while people are dying. He suggested it would all be over by Easter – thankfully the scientists prevailed. He’s lying. And Americans are dying. Even the Murdoch media is starting to worry about begin sued for repeating his lies in January and February.

He didn’t start the v***s but many, many Americans are going to die because of his choices. The rest of the world is using America and Italy as examples of how NOT to respond. In future years, when the history of the Trump P******c of 2020 is written, that history will not look kindly on Donald Trump.
