White House Declares Pandemic Over As It Cites Renowned Scientist Ivanka Trump

[634-5789]

The lie came in a news release on a new 62-page report from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy listing what it claims are the scientific and technological accomplishments during President Donald Trump’s first term. The list includes, “ENDING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.”

“From the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the administration has taken decisive actions to engage scientists and health professionals in academia, industry, and government to understand, treat, and defeat the disease,” the release states.

The pandemic is far from over. It is raging from coast to coast, thanks in no small part to the Trump administration’s mishandled response. A recent report from Columbia University estimates that the “abject failures” of government agencies under Trump resulted in between 130,000 and 210,000 avoidable deaths attributable to COVID-19.

As of Tuesday, the disease’s U.S. fatality toll topped 226,000 and the nation is averaging more than 70,000 new cases per day.

5. I wonder how long it took Ivanka to write the following word salad?

Over the past four years, President Trump’s policies and investments in science and technology ensure America stands ready to solve today’s most pressing challenges and that our workforce is prepared for tomorrow’s innovations,” Ivanka Trump said. “For years to come, these achievements will guarantee the United States remains the world’s leader in research, discovery and the advancement of industries that will shape our future.


Ivanka, honey, for years to come, we're more concerned about cleaning up the mess that your daddy made. I think it is safe to say you are just as guilty as the Orange Marvel, so fade out of the picture and get on with your life...OK?

6. White House announcements

are often more a wish list than statement of fact:

We WISH the pandemic was over.

We WISH people would vote for Trump.

etc.

7. Did they tell the virus that Trump defeated it?

8. Good one, Solly!

9. Of all the damn things to claim. Seriously.

I know Trump and his ilk prefer to shape a lie into an alternate reality for his followers but to claim he ended a pandemic?

While that pandemic is still raging around the globe and still killing people and still making people sick - with many having lifelong health problems as a result.

Now when one of his supporters come down with CoVid-19 they will call the doctor a liar because Trump ended it, so it couldn't possibly be that.

Trump doesn't seem to understand that he can't bully a virus into submission.

11. Spot On!

PINO is whining about all the COVID coverage as nearly the whole country is seeing a spike in cases.
Then, they release a statement that the pandemic is over?
If cases weren't going up, the media wouldn't be "COVID, COVID, COVID".
They themselves, said both of these things!
Proving their stupidity on a daily basis.

[Solly Mack]

13. It smacks of desperation and it comes with deadly consequences. Imagine that. Trump

found a way to kill even more people.

It's not here (when it was). It will disappear like magic. It's no worse than the common flu (said like the "common" flu isn't deadly and that flu isn't shorthand for influenza). I got it and look at me! You'll be fine. It's gone! I ended it!

Trump is one sick puppy.

[SheltieLover]

12. Crazy, isn't it?

I believe this nonsense is all part of putin's plan to make a mockery of our country.

After all, it is not illegal for officials to lie to the American people. Not that it would stop chumputin if it were illegal, obviously.

I thought of you when I saw projection for hurricane. I sure hope you aren't in the path of yet another one.

[Solly Mack]

14. Thanks! Not in the path but some DUers will be.

I hope they are OK.

Trump is a disease. A lethal disease.

[SheltieLover]

16. I hope they are ok too!

Yes, "it" is a deadly disaster!

Glad you aren't in the path this time!

10. CNN called it Orwellian Level Propaganda...
