President Donald Trump on Friday patted himself on the back for a bungled effort at curbing the coronavirus effort that has led to the death of more than 200,000 people in the United States.
Olivia Troye was on Rachel last night and boy-o-boy did she have the goods and the dirt on Donnie and the Corona Task force.
Rachel specifically asked Olivia about Trump’s strange comments about bleach, UV light and the strange things Trump spouts about COVID. Olivia stated that the Faucis and Brixs are clear in these meetings what the science is, what the virus does, and what is needed to be done. But it’s the PR people that arrange things to Trump’s view.
And apparently Dense Pence isn’t as dumb as we think. But man-o-man has he sure got the boot licking down pat.
What facet of Trump’s pampered life has formed the basis by which he measures “working so hard”? Ditto on the grade inflation, i.e. my father bought me a degree from Penn, by which “I give us an A to an A+.”
trump already has a fix for his PR problem - diverting $300 million of Covid funds into a pre-election advertising campaign:
From the article:
The Trump administration diverted over $300 million in funding for the CDC to a COVID-19 ad campaign devised by a political appointee.
The campaign “is expected to lean heavily on video interviews between administration officials and celebrities,” Politico reported.
Michael Caputo, the Trump appointee who came up with the campaign, said on Facebook that it had been “demanded of me by the president of the United States. Personally.”
To put this into context - on Google I found a report saying N95 masks now cost between $2.70 and $3.80 each. Assuming an average cost of $3.20 each, the $300 million would have been enough to buy 93,750,000 N95 masks for healthcare workers, first responders, other essential workers, etc.
Pretty much. We should be bragging about leading the world in herd mentality, getting all of our deaths out of the way upfront so we can get the economy running again.
All in the messaging, and our brave leader has been courageous enough to withstand all the criticism and undermining by the deep State to keep the plan rolling along.
The pandemic has never been anything other than a PR problem for this administration. It is hard to put a happy face message on 200,000+ American deaths The management was chaotic but then again that it very on brand for Trump, and his message always been to down play the virus.
“
The only thing we did badly on was public relations, because we working so hard,”
I just want our brave fat fuck to declare that he has total confidence in Atlas and his herd mentality, and that he has done away with all the testing of him, his staff, and those officials that he will be meeting with. Leading by example would certainly boost our nation’s moral and economy.
The sounds of ambulance sirens on practically an hourly basis along with one of the highest death tolls in the city is a bit more than a bad PR problem.
That is all Trump ever wanted to do. He asked Fauci why we couldn’t just let the virus run. It doesn’t matter that Fauci answered because a lot of people will die. The idea that the virus will play itself out never left Trump’s stupid head. Once he has an idea nobody changes his mind. Why would he? This freak thinks he knows better than everybody else about everything.
Their messaging was poor. Because citizens direct experience with lack of supplies caused them to doubt the message that the administration was doing a good job.
But the " I take no responsibility" was brilliant.
