Surgeon General Jerome Adams wouldn’t give a direct answer when asked whether all states should issue a stay-at-home order, during an interview on the “TODAY Show” Wednesday morning.
Oh. Trump says one thing, and the Surgeon General says another. That’s not confusing at all. Or a bad thing. In a time of crisis.
“Actually,” he added, " the most important thing is don’t listen to anything we say. Haven’t you learned anything from this?"
Tell that to DeSantis and Parson.
All you need to know is this clown worked for the Pence administration in Indiana. He was Pence’s state health commissioner, actually. He obviously doesn’t have much of a problem with slippery not-real answers, and playing both sides of a question. He’s not entirely unqualified professionally. It’s in terms of forthrightness and integrity he’s not much, and you can tell it simply from the company he keeps.
Adams responded that is the “whole point” of the White House’s 30 days to slow the spread guidelines
Shorter Surgeon General: “If you extrapolate to what things would look like with national leadership, and then ignore our frequent missteps, our half-articulated, often-contradicted, at times incoherent policy statements, well, then, it is exactly the same as what the west coast states have done!”
he added: we are all things to all people and we fully intend to claim all credit for the actions of truly good Democratic leaders and refuse any blame or responsibility for our own words and deeds. we’re republikkkans, after all.
Trump said he likes chaos. This is what we get at a time of national emergency?? Outrageous!!
I am going to go all “Jeopardy” on this one.
An order must be issued in the form of an order.
Adams is a nullity. Surgeon General is like HUD secretary, an irrelevant position that Trump gave to a black guy, when he could not nominate the drunken pill-pusher of the WH for it.
Amatuers
They’re all waiting for Trump to finish his review of the medical literature on coronavirus. Once he has the basis for an informed decision, he’ll act
Do they literally not realize that red state governors not issuing these stay at home orders will result in massive numbers of red state voter deaths, and surviving voter backlash? Do they really think that the short-term political benefits of not issuing these orders will likely be massively overshadowed by the longer-term political cost of not issuing them? Are they really this stupid, or are they banking on the stupidity of red state voters continuing to support them even as they kill them?
I see Mike Pence is coming on CNN,Wolf Blitzer no doubt will allow Pence to praise Trump and his leadership.
He’ll be gone before day’s end. Mark my word.
Heckuva job Adamsie.
Well, consider this:
EC votes are proportional to the number of voters casting ballots. If dead people don’t vote (and I’d be real leery about that in those States), the proportions will still be right and lean toward the Orangeness.
And yes, bank on that stupidity - you’ll make a killing on it. 
The info explains a lot,I was wondering how this guy got to where he is,now I know.
Happily announcing two states who jumped on the problem early on are seeing some promising data is the silver lining way of saying most states have been too slow to utilize their window of opportunity.
