Trump Warns 'One Of The Toughest Weeks' Is Ahead, Says To Brace For 'A Lot Of Death'

[LiberalArkie]

In a grim assessment of the COVID-19 pandemic, President Trump on Saturday predicted that the coming week would be "one of the toughest weeks" of the outbreak. At the same time, the president expressed frustration with the toll that social distancing measures are taking on the economy, saying, "We cannot let this continue."

With data projecting cases in several regions hitting their peaks within seven days, the president told reporters that the United States could see its deadliest week since the coronavirus outbreak began.

"There's going to be a lot of death, unfortunately. There will be a lot of deaths," the president said at a briefing of the White House's coronavirus task force.

At least 7,100 Americans have already died in the outbreak. Nationwide, more than 278,000 cases have been confirmed, more than in any other country.

Comment: In a capitalist society, the ventilators are not state property but the property of corporations who own the ventilators and the hospitals and the nurses and the doctors. They can't give them to another place. They belong to the stockholders.

7. What happened to the word "Easter?"

He didn't say, "Easter week is going to be one of the toughest weeks...with a lot of death." When he was peddling his rosy scenario about opening the country up again, he was using the word "Easter" a lot. It's the same set of dates, but now that the rosy scenario is gone, the dates are just dates again.

8. Trump seems to revel in the prospect of more deaths.

From day one with his bloody inaugural speech, American Carnage, to all the people dying from this virus, he actually seems to enjoy seeing the death counts keep rising.

Look at all the evil decisions he's made that will end up making more Americans suffer and die. Other than saying that Trump is mentally ill, a psychotic, or criminally insane, there's no explanation with he's so obsessed with people dying.
