It will go from "We have permanently ruined our economy" to "President Trump made the right call" in no time.


All anyone has to do is watch the daily PCs to know/understand what Trump has in mind for the economy to rebound already.

This is part of the reason why the Democrats like Pelosi and many D governors are trying to slow this down. They know it will work, but they want to delay any recover until AFTER November so they can try and get the brain dead retard elected. This way, if BDR is elected, they can get the economy back to where it was under Obama: Record unemployment numbers, along with record numbers on the dole.

It is a bold political strategy, but it plays well with the mentally ill TDS posters.

I'm no fan of Trump, but he has earned my vote in 2020. Didn't vote for him in 2016.

he said if we didn’t do the quarantine measures, the death toll could have easily been between 1-1.5 million Americans.
Does this sound extreme to you, or do you believe it could have easily happened?


1.5 million Americans live in nursing homes

So now, we move the goalposts in order to blame Trump for the minimal deaths we have. 

Trump is not only spiking the football on his accomplishments (he and his team SHOULD), but now he is using their very own fear mongering on his behalf, and it pisses them off to no end. 


Thing is, the flip side is that some Trump fans have been attacking high death estimates as a BS hoax pushed by liberals to destroy Trump's reelection.

Now, those people are moving the goalposts to say Trump saved a million people, or at a bare minimum, ignore how they were bashing the numbers Trump used today last week.

The far right and far left are identical. They'll both move the goalposts at any point, and it moves so that their side is never wrong.

A common theme among far right and left is that the other side wants everyone dead. You refer to it by saying Dems wanted people dead from Corona to make Trump look bad. On the other side, far lefties think R's want to reopen the economy to murder your grandma.

It's all the same, just with different ideology.

Do you have PDS? Because I haven't seen her dictate/mandate a thing to governors. Have you?

I do believe the death toll would have been 10x (or higher) worse than it is, but 1.5M would have never happened because people would have started doing their own self quarantine long before that happened
So, that doesn't take away that it would have been 1.5M IF no quarantine measures would have been taken.

Well...the top adviser on his task force (Dr. Anthony Fauci) was on CNN as late as February 29 saying this thing wasn't a big threat to the United States, so it's no wonder Trump thought we had it under control. That's what the experts were telling him.

No one knows more about infectious disease than trump. The doctors are all amazed at how much he knows.

Impossible to know, but probably would have only come close to that number if no one did any kind of mitigation at all and proceeded to spit into be mouths of all of the lost at risk people in order to attempt to spread this and make it as deadly as possible.

Funny coming from a guy that said we had everything under control and would be fine in March.


Trump appointed the Vice President to the WuFlu committee in JANUARY. That’s not the actions of somebody who doesn’t takes this serious.

At least he wasn’t telling people to go out to Chinatown.

All he is doing is repeating what his so called health experts are telling him. What else is he supposed to say. For him to shut down the greatest economy in the world they had to have told him something that scared the shite out of him

We've effectively shut the entire world down and still have issues with it. There would certainly be more but we don't know how many.

Yes. People would have self restricted within reason enough to stop it from happening.

On March 13th, the Centers for Disease Control projected that 160 million to 214 million people would be infected. If that had turned out to be true, 1.5 million dead is certainly plausible.
