Trump boasts to governors that his pandemic response system will be ‘the talk of the world’: leaked recording
Published 19 mins on March 16, 2020
President Donald Trump spoke with several governors from around the country on Monday and took the opportunity to once again brag about his widely panned response to the coronavirus pandemic.
The New York Times, which obtained a recording of the call, reports that Trump once again falsely claimed that America’s pandemic response system was “broken” under former President Barack Obama, when in reality Trump shuttered the National Security Council’s pandemic response team and never replaced it with anything comparable.
“We broke down a system that was broken, very badly broken,” Trump said to the governors, and then added that his team is creating a new one that “I think is going to be the talk of the world.”
The United States has fallen far behind other nations in terms of testing capabilities, and many sick Americans still say they’re being denied access to tests even though Trump claimed more than a week ago that there were enough tests available for anyone who wanted one............................

7. It is a perfect pandemic response system:
Jan. 22
“Are there worries about a pandemic at this point?”
“No. Not at all. And we have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.”
Jan. 24
“It will all work out well.”
Jan. 30
“We have it very well under control. We have very little problem in this country at this moment — five. And those people are all recuperating successfully.”
Feb. 2
“How concerned are you?”
“Well, we pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”
Feb. 10
“Looks like by April, you know, in theory, when it gets a little warmer, it miraculously goes away.”
Feb. 19
“I think the numbers are going to get progressively better as we go along.”
Feb. 23
"Have you been updated on the coronavirus, sir?"
"Yeah, we’re very much involved. We have it very much under control. We had 12, at one point. And now they’ve gotten very much better. Many of them are fully recovered."
Feb. 26
“We’re going down, not up. We’re going very substantially down, not up.”
Feb. 27
“It’s going to disappear. One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappear.”
Mar. 2
"I really think we’re in extremely good shape. We’re prepared for anything. And here we’re talking about a much smaller range. And, again, we’re prepared for anything."
Mar. 4
"It’s very mild."
Mar. 7
“I’m not concerned at all.”
Mar. 10
“It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.”
Mar. 13
"I don’t take responsibility at all
