I Am Not Reassured by Trump’s Words

I think Trump is downplaying the Corona Virus. He said (while sounding unwell himself) that there are 22 patients. What happened to the 62, we had from only a day or two ago. He said, if you’re healthy, and become infected, you’ll be fine. Tell that to the healthy young people’s loved ones, who died from it. The young whistleblower doctor for one, was only 32.

He keeps saying how well prepared we are, but the CDC still don’t have testing kits distributed around the country, and the first kits were defective. It doesn’t seem like well prepared to me, and we know at least one person in California and Oregon, are walking around with the virus infecting God knows how many others, who will then infect more, and so on. No, Mr. President, I am not reassured by your words, and will take precautions regardless.

I know, right? So now that someone in the US has died, now it is not a hoax? This doesn't seem like effective leadership.

Let’s be factual, @TrunkZ. Trump did not say the Corona Virus was a hoax, but the MSM put this as the title on news reports. What he actually said was the Democrats were using it as a hoax. Different meaning, but of course the lying media have to twist his words.

@Carissimi well obviously the virus was not a hoax. He seems to use the hoax label rather frequently. So please be factual and explain which part was a "hoax". I am glad to hear that you are not reassured by his words, however.

I’ve just explained. I don’t know how I can explain it more clearly than I already have. Again, he didn’t say the virus was a hoax. @TrunkZ

@Carissimi You misunderstood. What was the "hoax" that the democrats allegedly perpetrated?
Carissimi · F
I’d have to go back and read the news report from this morning. I don’t recall word for word, but I recall thinking how misleading the title was, and how when you read the article, he never said it. I think it was somewhere on Apple News, if you have an iPhone. @TrunkZ

@Carissimi Android here. This is a worrisome time and our.leadership just seems to be making it more worrisome.
