Vice President Mike Pence re-upped the notion shared by both the Trump administration and its allies that Democrats are weaponizing coronavirus fears to make the President look bad during Sunday morning TV news appearances.
Regardless of my opinion of Tuck Chodd, Q-Tip looked like the proverbial deer in the headlights on every question he was asked. A deer with Chronic Wasting Disease.
And yak, yak, yakking about how mean and nasty the Democrats are with their politicizing is doing exactly nothing to help the nation prepare for and cope with the virus. A competent grownup would ignore all the noise and do his job, but we have Mike Pence instead.
When I saw the report of the first case of COVID-19 reported in Rhode Island earlier, I clicked through to the source link and, wow, does the Rhode Island health department have it together. It was very confidence-inspiring reading their statement and guidance. Maybe they could send someone to run the national task force? Iām not even kiddingā¦
The Trump team are rattled. None of their go-to smear tactics are working. Pence is the latest piece of rotten meat to be sacrificed in the service of DJT. Punk loser.
Pence was sent out with his condescending air and praise of dear leader to spew that everything is awesome and paint Dems as an evil menace. Meanwhile real scientists in WA state -probably all over the country- are sequencing the genome of the virus and may have already determined that it is in the wild. Penceās message should be, stay home if you are sick, keep your kids home if they are sick, urge businesses to assist in this effort by mandating their employees stay home without retribution, observe good hygiene and stay away from your sick or elderly relatives if you are symptomatic.
It is in the wild folks. This is an interesting thread and there are real scientists who will be the heroes of this. Great thread BTW
Donald Trump, Jr. claims that I want millions of people to die to bring down Trump. Heās right. Millions of Deplorables would be happy to die for their Leader, whoās reassuring them that itās all a āhoax.ā
I know, the choice of caner or polio, but if Pence can step up and look like a leader to the Repubs, they might be willing to off-load the sun-dowing dangerous Trump. Pence is all in on theocracy, but he doesnāt seem to be sowing civil war, world war, kinder-gentler final solutions etc. like Trump.
Love to see more info on Penceās path to VP. The dramatic tarmac meeting. Manafort arranged this, yes?
Pence was asked about what facts there are supporting the right-wing notion that Democrats are trying to bring down Trump with fears surrounding the outbreak.
I will happily politicize the impending outbreak because Trumpās handling of it has already exacerbated it, and will undoubtedly do so again and again and again. Rank incompetence is a political issue!
