Having Failed Totally in COVID-19 Outbreak, Trump Calls It a Hoax!

[MineralMan]

He did that at his "rally" in South Carolina yesterday. A Hoax!

That is all he can come up with. That's the best he can do. He's got nothing, and his fanatical fans will Trumpet this everywhere.

I just can't...

1. When they start getting sick and dying, will they continue to maintain it is a hoax?

This hoax business is extremely dangerous.

[MineralMan]

3. Dangerous is an understatement.

Trump simply has no idea what to do and has fired all those who do have an idea.

7. Then, he will start saying the democrats are spreading it and Hillary

is behind it all, that she has secret labs under pizza shops.

2. Oh boy....another 1000 point drop in the DOW coming on Monday

[MineralMan]

5. That could well be.

We are a nation without leadership. That is a recipe for disaster, I'm afraid.

[RKP5637]

9. The stock market drop is a hoax, democrats spreading

fake numbers! Didn't you know?

4. It's a word salad, but I think he's calling Democrats' criticism of his response a hoax

rather than the epidemic itself.

He is asking for money to address the outbreak, so he clearly doesn't think the epidemic is a hoax.
'
I think it's important not to give the RW fuel that we misrepresent his words.

[MineralMan]

6. That's one way to interpret it, I suppose.

However, the "hoax" think is trending now. #CoronaHoax

8. Yep, and it's going to give fuel to the GOP that people "deliberately" lie about what he says.

Don't get me wrong - I hate him.

He put Pence in charge of handling the outbreak, so he clearly doesn't think that the virus is a hoax.

We have more than enough ammo without stumbling over ourselves.

10. Here's a video of this ASS spouting that SHIT

And endlessly LYING about the number of cases in the USA.

11. Perhaps what this 'Hoax' needs is a little marketing? Maybe give it a nickname? MAGA Plague?

Has anyone else noted that if one were to design a mechanism to most efficiently spread coronavirus in a population you would look for a large gathering of unwashed people pulled from a geographically diverse area packed tightly into a confined space. It would help if these people also had a bit of a rebel streak and refused to follow safety instructions recommended by the government. Add to this mix a couple of contagious people in denial about their symptoms and a level of excitement that is conducive to exaggerated body movements and a lot if indiscriminate body to body contact between strangers.

Doesn’t this sound an awful lot like a MAGA rally?

12. First tattle-tale sign that something is for real

is when agent orange calls it a hoax.
