Trump's response to Coronaviruse has been incredible !

He said so himself tonight (ABC or CBS evening news).

"People have told me our response has been incredible."

Then he added:
"One day it will just go away. It'll be like a miracle."

You've got to be kidding. Promising a miracle "one day" will surely calm the market. rzemanfl Feb 2020 #2

I'm waiting for the REAL miracle which will be when I wake up one day and he and his family will have just gone away.

If this doesn't get him kicked out of the presidency I think I'm moving to Tahiti.

7. Trump Says He's Doing 'Incredible Job' Handling Coronavirus

President Donald Trump said his administration has done an “incredible job” preventing the spread of coronavirus after California’s governor said the state is monitoring 8,400 people for signs of exposure.

The U.S. has 15 people who contracted the virus “instead of thousands of people,” Trump told reporters Thursday at the White House, adding that most are better. He credited the administration’s decision to close borders, an apparent reference to restrictions on travelers from China.

California Governor Gavin Newsom said the state is monitoring about 8,400 people for signs of the disease after they traveled to Asia.

Trump said the number of infections could increase before getting better, or the virus could go away.

The president also said the virus is “really above politics” but went on to criticize the top Senate Democrat, Chuck Schumer of New York.

Later, at a black history event at the White House, Trump asked Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to speak about the virus. Vice President Mike Pence said Thursday he is now leading the government’s coronavirus task force instead of Azar.

The minute Trump was elected everyone I spoke to about it told me to calm down, How bad could he be?, blah, blah, blah because I could just tell, he was a serious thread to our democracy. But it just keeps getting more horrific as he reveals himself to be worse than I ever imagined.
