Trump's pandemic failing is now directly impacting his campaign

President Donald Trump's is now paying a direct, personal price for his pandemic denial -- the possible shelving of the thing he cares about most, the raucous rallies that defined his political rise and are crucial to his reelection hopes.

Trump spent the weekend seething about the disappointing crowd for his comeback event in Oklahoma on Saturday night, according to CNN reporting. His hopes of a full-time return to the campaign trail then took another blow with news that eight staffers and two Secret Service agents at the event are now positive for the coronavirus.

When Americans go to the polls in November they will not forget Trump's incompetence and his mishandling of the coronavirus crisis and he will lose.

Trump has lost his edge as a campaigner. In 2016 it was all about Hillary's ties to Wall Street and the TPP. Trump got to accuse her of being an insider with himself being the outsider. Now he's the one parading how well Wall Street and 401k's are doing. The people in the audience are cheering but we all know they are living paycheck to paycheck and aren't benefiting one iota from the Fed's continuous bailouts of Wall Street to keep it afloat.

That's probably why only 6,200 people showed up.

And now Trump wants to "attack" Biden as an ally of the left who wants medicare for all during a pandemic? Oh god. Please do it, Trump. I can't wait.

His profound ignorance on COVID 19 will never be forgotten. He's failing America - and especially his people.

America has done pretty well compared to most countries. Probably because Trump put in the travel ban, fast tracked manufacturing of PPE and removed the red tape to work on screening tests. And he has done the same to work on a cure. Seems like he has done everything a president should do.

Trump supporters really do live in a different reality than most other Americans.

If you remove the riots and looting and arson and killing all done by liberals, America is doing great. When can you leave?

120,000 dead and you say America is doing great ? Not even Trump is saying this any more.

Blame China. They are the ones responsible for those deaths. You do realize America is only one of the many countries hit by the China virus. Right?

I'm blaming Trump. I'm not passing the buck to China. Trump is the leader of our country and is sworn to protect this country from any and all dangers. Instead, he's willingly 'slowing down testing' - which is criminal.

He's a failure, a loser, a moron and a criminal.

They really do. They have no sense of what's happening in the real world.

The rioting, the looting, the fires, tearing down statues, creating autonomous zones, attacking white people, threatening businesses, and the China virus. Is that real enough for ya?

How much of this do you want to blame on China, and how much do you want to blame on Republican Trump supporter Derek Chauvin ?

reply

[–] trevorh321 (5495) 5 years ago

I blame the virus on China. They lied, they let it move all over the planet. All on them. Chauvin is one bad cop and does not represent anyone but himself. All of his rioting was for nothing. And while it's sad Floyd died the reaction to his death, the carriage drawn funeral in a gold casket was nothing short of ridiculous. The rioting and looting was unnecessary and proved Democrats are not civilized.

All political and non political fringes are involved in the rioting

reply

[–] trevorh321 (5495) 5 years ago

No. It's Democrats. Conservatives are not rioting.

Speaking for all conservatives eh? If China is as guilty as you say, what do conservatives plan to do about it? They killed 120k shouldn't there be a call to war?

Cut all ties with China. That means moving manufacturing out. That means no more Chinese students in our universities. No more anchor babies. Cut all ties. They have been stealing from other countries without consequence for decades. China is a very real threat. I guess that's why Democrats bend over backwards to appease them. Which only makes China more aggressive. China should be held accountable by the whole world for what they have done. They won't.

Trump is the only president who has been tough on China. If you want China to dominate the world then vote Democrat.

First they'll have to rescue Ivanka's trademarks and patents. Then they will go to war.
