Trump delays release of economic package

[transporter]

As I mentioned the other day, in difficult times actual leadership is required. Leadership required knowledge learned from books and from actual experiences. We do not have a leader running this country.

I also noted that words matter. In his presser on Monday our buffoon of a President said he would release a package of economic stimulus on Tuesday. It was a stupid thing to say but, Trump being Trump, our President is incompetent and unfit....so he said it anyway.

Naturally, he didn't release a proposal yesterday. So in a world operating in a leadership vacuum, all of the gains from yesterday have erased.

Limpwrist, you starting to understand how this should work yet? Or are you still running around with your head up you ass proclaiming Trump is great?

Trump delays release of economic package

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump has delayed the release of an economic stimulus package for businesses and workers harmed by the coronavirus outbreak as his aides sort out what financial relief will be included in the proposal.

Trump had said he would have a news conference on Tuesday to release details of the package. But the day ended with no announcement and no agreement, even after meetings between Trump and lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

For those who don't understand, this is NOT how leadership works. This isn't how the manager of your corner McDonald's should operate. But you get the govt you voted for...right?

WTF is "unfit" anyway? It seems to be a catch-all word when you can't specify exactly what it is you don't like about him.
It's your favorite word for him and you use it all the time when he does something you don't agree with but never turns out to be as catastrophic as you think.

Any American that isn't a socialist is unfit.. despite one of the tenets of our country is ANYBODY can be President.

just wondering why Italy has over 10,000 cases of Covid-19 when their first case was on January 31st and the United States has a little over 1,000 cases when our first case was ten days earlier?

And Ethiopia has zero cases, despite it being the hub for Chinese air transit to/from Africa and there being confirmed cases of people returning from Ethiopia having the virus.

If you don't test, you don't have confirmed cases.

You can’t be serious ... can you?

Let me help you: ITALY WAS QUICK TO IMPLEMENT A ROBUST TESTING PROGRAM.

The Trump strategy under the brilliant leadership of Mike Pence is to suppress testing to keep the numbers down.

Got it!
so because of testing no more than 827 people have died, in Italy, because of Covid-19. But because the US isn't testing the 31 confirmed deaths as of now is totally wrong and should be in the thousands?

Greetings:

You were initially wondering why Italy has so many confirmed cases compared to US, and now I have no idea what you’re on about.

But have fun!

no, you are saying if we tested more people, we should have more cases then Italy. Which, if true, we should have more deaths as well - but we don't.

That’s not what I said at all.

We have fewer confirmed cases because we weren’t and still aren’t testing at the same rates.

That is not the same as saying we should have more than Italy. It simply addressing your question as to why Italy has more confirmed cases. Nothing more.
