1. I'm not sure but 1st thing to know is she's a woman who dared to confront him.

[RandySF]

2. Worse for him, a woman of color.

[DURHAM D]

5. and must be at least 5' tall so that

would really intimidate him

[Bluepinky]

4. And a non-Caucasian woman at that!

[PatSeg]

12. Yep

Lately it seems to be the women who he is most likely go off on. He's so nasty.

[DURHAM D]

3. Her chair said UNI TV but don't know what that is. nt

[TreasonousBastard]

6. I would think that's Univision.

[uponit7771]

7. K&R, ... and there was follow up with another reporter

[procon]

8. I dunno, but Trump was definitely claiming the stockpile

as if it belonged exclusively to him. Trump also kept repeating that the stockpile was for federal use. What the he'll is he talking about?

What hospitals does the federal govt operate? This is not the same thing as the VA or DOD hospitals, they have their own logistical services,
.

So what is he saving the stockpile for if not this current national disaster?

[Dream Girl]

9. He's saving them for when the red states get bad

[brewens]

10. It's for him to doll out to those willing to do favors for him. n/t

[fierywoman]

11. He thinks it's for him to give millions of tons to China with a secret agreement that a large sum of

money will be placed for him in an off shore bank account.

[BlueIdaho]

13. "I got this thing and it's fucking Golden."

Blagojevich taught the old fraud a new trick and he’s got dollar signs in his eyes...

[Kaiserguy]

15. He is saving it for the highest bidder

and Trump will be the auctioneer. I can see it now. Trump what am I bid for this box of masks, and of course he gets to keep a percentage of the money in his case it will be 100% .

CBS News

18. Yes, here's Weijia Jiang's tweet about the question.

21. What a dick response from this dickhead.

Jaysus, he really is a hateful misogynist. He resorts to trying to humiliate when he's on the ropes. "You should be ashamed of yourself." What an immature, little man, and I use the term "man" very loosely since in my opinion there is nothing manly about him.

[crickets]

24. Oooo, he did not like that at all. Good for Weijia Jiang! nt

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

16. Here's what the HHS says about the Strategic National Stockpile:

The Strategic National Stockpile's role is to supplement state and local supplies during public health emergencies. Many states have products stockpiled, as well. The supplies, medicines, and devices for life-saving care contained in the stockpile can be used as a short-term stopgap buffer when the immediate supply of adequate amounts of these materials may not be immediately available.''

Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

As part of the ongoing response, the SNS has deployed personal protective equipment (PPE), including N95 respirators, surgical and face masks, face shields, gloves, and disposable gowns, to help prevent COVID-19 transmission in all 50 states, the nation’s four largest cities, and U.S. territories and ventilators to areas in need. The SNS is also working with its partners across the federal government to coordinate logistics operations in order to leverage all available resources to support the COVID-19 response.

Maybe someone should sit Jared down and explain this to him. Or whack him in the head with a bat. Either works.

30. Believe it or not, that was recently modified to reflect Kushner's statements ...

Here is a link to an earlier DU posting.
You’ll be amazed at what changed

33. If that doesn't piss you off....you're not pissoffable!

The whole bunch of them are just trying to profit off of this pandemic. I hope they all succumb to it.

[aggiesal]

34. Of course I'm pi$$ed off. ...

Everyone in this administration are grifters, plain and simple.

They're not trying just to profit from this pandemic,
they will do anything they can to make a buck. Pandemic or No Pandemic, does not matter to them.
That's why the GOP stands for Greedy One Percent.

A reporter once asked Rockefeller, "How much money is too much money?"
His response, "Just one more dollar."

He pretty much said, enough money is never enough.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

17. Maybe it's not money he's after

But help with the next election.

[SWBTATTReg]

19. I am so sick and tired of rump's response to a tough question that it's nasty. He's worthless.

He should be hauled up before a court and charged w/ treason, the whole lot of them.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

20. I have never heard an adult use the word "nasty," much less a president.

As far as I know even FDR didn't refer to Hitler as "nasty."

Fat Donnie seems to use it all the time. During the final presidential debate, Hillary Clinton explained her hopes to improve the Social Security program by increasing taxes on the wealthy, commenting that her own Social Security contributions would accordingly go up along with those of her opponent, Donald Trump, "assuming he can't figure out how to get out of it." Trump immediately retorted, "Such a nasty woman."

[llmart]

23. Maybe his mommy used that on him when he was growing up.

He certainly is the poster boy for mommy issues.

[rzemanfl]

27. I've had some nasty colds. Other than that I can't think of another

times I have used the word.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

31. Proud to be a Nastywoman!

[rzemanfl]

32. I am too old to change.

Also, that would be a lot of elective surgery.

[rufus dog]

22. Not her first win

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. And when he GAVE IN to the test he made sure to note that it was NOT because of what she said

I fucking HATE him...I fucking HATE everyone who supports him

I hate with such energy that I am surprised my FUCKING HEAD HASNT EXPLODED

[Evolve Dammit]

28. Hear ya. There were nights I thought it might. But that's what they want, so fuck 'em. Om...

[Sloumeau]

25. Trump hates it when his people say stupid stuff,

and then they get asked about the stupid stuff they say.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

29. #slumlordincharge needs to go viral.

The slumlord buys property, doesnt care for it, doesn't follow laws protecting renters, and charges as much as possible.

They call detractors to this "communists".
