Trump hasn't done shit for this country and your s
Post# of 123788
Yeah I worked all my life any your speculations beyond that are just that.
We are all paying for Trump's willful ignorance and his incompetence.
He clearly does not read or prepare himself for anything. We've been warned about that from the earliest day of his presidency. Why WOULD someone like Rex Tillerson refer to Trump as a 'fucking moron', unless…?
It's less about a bridge or the specifics of what Trump speculates about but rather the irresponsibleness of it. He speculated that it would disappear, that the economy would be open by Easter. He said he not responsible, despite being a war time president, to provide a federal response to the expressed need of the states.
People ARE drying and the economy has tanked largely because of hos obsession with his reelection and his pathetic science illiteracy.
He should not be speculating in a briefing about unproven measures that the public may have over the counter access to. And he shouldn't be lying that scientists 'are looking in to the sun' as a disinfectant for the virus. It would be laughable but for the tragic stupidity of it.
He inadvisably got out in front on this too:
Researchers cut chloroquine study short over safety concerns, citing a 'primary outcome' of death
Primary outcome? That would be as if TV drug ads ended with 'some patients died, had rashes, sleeplessness and chest pain.' Death first on the list rather than last. Get it?

Citing a “primary outcome” of death, researchers cut short a study testing anti-malaria drug chloroquine as a potential treatment for Covid-19 after some patients developed irregular heart rates and nearly two dozen of them died after taking doses of the drug daily.
Scientists say the findings, published Friday in the peer-reviewed Journal of the American Medical Association, should prompt some degree of skepticism from the public toward enthusiastic claims about and perhaps “serve to curb the exuberant use” of the drug, which has been touted by President Donald Trump as a potential “game-changer” in the fight against the coronavirus.
Chloroquine gained widespread international attention following two small studies, including one with 36 Covid-19 patients published March 17 in France, found that most patients taking the drug cleared the coronavirus from their system a lot faster than the control group. The JAMA report said those trials didn’t meet the publishing society’s standards.
“These weak findings, bolstered by anecdotal reports and media attention, have fostered widespread belief in the efficacy of these agents,” according to a separate warning about prescribing the drugs issued Friday alongside the new JAMA study.
