What the **** is your problem? Saying you misinterpreted what he said isn't fellating him.

Good God you are a miserable human being sometimes.

No tolerance for idiots

And he's a frickin' idiot.

With the exception of China and Iran, every other country with a large number of reported cases is an advanced western democracy (plus us). It's a map of testing right now. Not only do we not know the extent here and in Europe; we really don't know the extent in Central and South America, Africa, and Western Asia. The only way we're going to find out the extent in those places is when we start getting large death tolls.

ICE will apparently stop arresting people, so hey it looks like pandemic beats fascism in this game of rock, paper, scissors.

Obviously, greed still beats pandemic.

Grow up

What's interesting is *BOTH* these people worked for Obama. I had to look up the info on Craig Fugate (Director of FEMA under the entire Obama administration), it appears that he isn't a fan of bureaucratic bullsh**. Which... surprises me because what Andy Slavitt pointed out is just that, bureaucratic bullsh**.

In fact, Craig is on record as saying:

Within my profession, you need the ability to … make decisions about when to launch a large response because triggering events have occurred, even when you don’t have any requests yet or any information.

The most perishable and precious commodity in disaster response is time, and you never get it back. You want somebody that can synthesize a lot of variables very quickly and know when to push the system to go now versus waiting for a formal request for assistance. You don’t want someone who wants all the information to make the perfect decision because it takes too long.

But if you don’t get the stuff needed and get there too late, not only is there going to be a hearing, you’ll be fired. In a true catastrophic disaster, you’re going to have so little time to make decisions that you have to do a lot of pre-planning and think out how these disasters unfold, the types of things you’ll need, and the quantities you’ll need based on populations, vulnerability and risk profiles.

If I get a scale-7.8 earthquake in California, I’m not going to wait for someone to tell me it’s bad. We’ve already run exercises and models. Why are we waiting? We should be able to generate an immediate response.

My biggest thing to the next administration is: Make sure you have somebody that Trump will empower and trust to make those decisions in the early moments of an event.

My guess is that this is the first time he's had to actually work for an entire day, so I'm sure it's quite a shock to his system. Dude probably has slept 3 hours a night for the past 10 days.

Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?

No, I get that. I wasn’t criticizing but sometimes it’s funny when people with no background whatsoever say things like it’s fact.
I need this medium to communicate too, so not criticizing

Agree. The amount of things that are not qualified with still under review (see whole presser by the Orange Goober and his little lapdogs) makes me nuts. Its OK to say what is coming out but it should be qualified with the tag of 'as of now'.

I’m working in a covid command center coming up with processes to get people tested. Amazing how fast my company can mobilize compared to a GOP lead gov.

See link below. They were talking about how this was playing out (or not)

THis was an interesting program this morning. https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2020/03/19/coronavirus-crisis-reveals-about-united-states#_=_

State Dept says don't travel internationally? Hello? Is anyone letting us thru their door?

He actually said, it's not the federal government's job to be buying up a lot of this equipment and making sure it gets distributed.

That's EXACTLY the federal government's ****ing job.

This is criminal. The whole function should be to keep separate entities from hoarding if they are more prepared, richer. He is screwing his own base where they are habitually unprepared and do not budget for healthcare. My state is in much better shape than the knuckle dragger states.

And good lord- he is a complete a55 regarding potential treatment. The old drug has no side effects? Okie dokie then. https://www.drugs.com/sfx/chloroquine-side-effects.html

Who can tell whether this is any different from him as he usually is? The main difference with Dump now is he's being seen on a schedule that isn't completely under his control. It takes hours of prep work to make him look and sound better than this:

<img src="https://i.imgur.com/XBukUYk.jpg" >

Now he's actually on call and there is not enough make up and Adderal to maintain the illusion on the fly.

It's remarkable he hasn't croaked. The only thing saving him is he's so clueless he has no idea how much trouble he's in.
