Trump doesn't want to continue with the social distancing.

I have read that food supply is going to become a real problem in some countries.

No, it doesn't. How?

Trump passed a bill to give 15.5 billion to the Us farming industry.
Money is no issue. Never has to be paid back.

European countries need to beg the IMF

Yes there is a huge anti Americanism with the anti Trumpers. They don't seem to accept that he represents a large section of Americans. He is America.

The anti Trumpers are probably satisfied that he's representative of a large section of Americans though because that validates the anti Trumpers' anti Americanism

Perhaps they're thinking "if he's stupid then his supporters must be stupid too"

BorneTobyWilde · 14-04-2020 11:23PM

Pence and DOctor didn't even speak, no Covid update today, just Trump.

Those chickens are going to come home to roost. The day will come when the level of debt there can't be sustained. It will come crashing down taking the rest of us with it.

Other countries have no problem inviting them into help unless you are China when you say you are not getting in til we have sanitized all traces of it and we control where you go and what you see but here's some nice reports we made for you earlier

Why do people need to take sides on this sh*te, China can be 'bad' and US actions can be 'bad.'

Yes China is a dictatorship that has little regard for the truth. But guess what? Viruses don't care about politics and the WHO will have to go to places like China and try to work under those conditions, it can't afford not to for all our sake. By all means, after this the world needs to examine it's relationship with China. De-funding WHO doesn't accomplish this at all. How does it in any way address the problem of China? And Trump will still be happy to have the family name adorned on merchandise produced in China so this is not some moral stand either, it's about flexing US muscles and finding someone else to pin the blame on.

For sure. Nobody like this social distancing but I reckon for here at home, we understand the importance of the distancing and we won't be in a hurry to lift the social distancing guidelines.

From what trump said, he would like to get the economy going ASAP and get people to mingle again. If a restaurant can hold 150 people, he would prefer that than allowing 50 people to gather.

We all want to go back to the days before this virus but it's not going to happen anytime soon.

Trump was never a fan of shaking hands

Can't believe we have a couple of Trump defenders on here. At best he's a dangerous fool.

Misguided populism brought him to power. It also brought people like Hitler to power. Trump is an egotistical charlatan in charge of the most powerful military nation on earth. And it appears like he's becoming senile, more erratic to boot.

Dunno why I'm bothering, there's loads of similar factually accurate accounts of what was said from across the spectrum, you'll no doubt use the same excuse because you can't think of anything reasonable.
You're even arguing against Trump's own words saying it's just leftie liberal propaganda.

Also, talking about 'China' in terms of the government.CCP stats, scientific research, PPE (faulty or otherwise) from individual factories, or Chinese ex-pats sending masks etc. home is lumping a lot of completely different things together
