When a president jokes about reducing testing during a very active and deadly pandemic

[duforsure]

While thousands suffer and die from his refusal to act , has no place in our government . Joking about it while so many have died shows he will never be capable of making America great again , and what a total fraud and con man he is. His rally's are virus spreading intentionally while claiming anything but what he's really doing , trying to con people into not believing this pandemic is a very serious threat . He caused this situation he now wants you to ignore, and now he's hurt the economy so badly people are starting to suggest a trump depression could be soon here, while trump and McConnell go out of their way to stall people get direct checks while trump is likely holding back getting us anything until he gets his payoff with stimulus funds. If Republicans would have ousted him for crimes he committed , this would not be like it now is under trump. Stalling direct checks to the people quickly is already backfiring on them now badly. The Nov. election will be a historic landslide against all Republicans , especially for Trump, and McConnell. Republicans should be scared , their party is self destructing from trump's failures , and them allowing this to continue. They learned nothing from the Mid Terms . Vote people! We need to get rid of someone joking while people are dying from his failures.

1. He wasn't joking-- he's just stupid enough to think what he said makes sense.

6. +1

And I would like it if people would stop spreading this obvious cover story for the Crockwork Orange's obvious mental decline.

2. anybody remember the Bush slide show at the press dinner?

Bush hunting high and low for those "illusive" wmd in the Oval Office...republican assholes have a way of finding the "funny" in death and dying...

4. I will never forget that...looking under the couch for weapons of mass destruction.

He is a total idiot, too.

3. Except he wasn't joking. He wants to hide the numbers because they make him look bad.

That's the same reason he wouldn't allow those cruise ships to dock. That's why he said tests were overrated. No tests, fewer cased.

He doesn't care how many get sick or die as long ad he doesn't get blamed for it.

7. Exactly!

But their claim he was joking about something killing and hurting Americans exposes their lying even more. Joking about Americans dying and suffering is an even worse excuse . They should make an ad about him doing that now. 120,000 thousand + dead and a president is joking about it.

13. True-- as I said above, he's too inept to know, or care, that the disease will be there...

whether it's tested for or not.

One might argue over the means to deal with this calamity, but to cover it up is pure evil.

5. For our country's sake I hope you're right about

the Repuke destruction.

8. I have faith ,

Justice will prevail , and this will be a horrible nightmare for our country , and these fascists will be defeated , and held accountable. With someone like trump its only a matter of time before he's completely exposed.

9. This guy doesn't joke. He hated testing from the start. He hates America.

[Arkansas Granny]

11. He thinks testing makes him look bad. He doesn't realize that he looks bad regardless.

[spanone]

12. Absolutely!

10. Joke or not, it was a very twisted thing to say

A completely tone-deaf and pointedly cruel comment in the face of the massive suffering of Americans.

14. "He was just joking." "I was just joking." -- the new standard response

for when one of his asshole statements goes over like a lead balloon. Just one step removed from "can't you guys take a joke?"
