    lies? which of these are lies? find the one you think is the most obviously a a lie and let me know. maybe you dont beleive his claim about hot weather?

    yunno what i think about his claim about hot weather? i have no fucking idea. i am not a virus expert. i have heard many virus experts agree with trump but still, what do i know? but you know enough to list it as part of a list of lies?

    he claimed it will go away one day. is that a lie? you think he is lying because the virus will stay forever? he told us we will be ok, and we shouldnt panic? is that a lie? we should panic?

    did you? do you agree that he said those things and that they were false? does it matter if the President of the United States tells the truth? you are very concerned with whether I, an anonymous poster on a chat forum, has told the truth or lied....do you hold the leader of the free world to the same standard?

    If you think I am wrong about the President spreading misinformation to his followers take a look around here and see all the people who are skeptical that this will turn out to be anything worse than the flu. If we were just talking about politicians here I could see your reluctance to accept information, but Dr. Anthony Fauci isn't a politician. Doctor upon doctor is emphasizing the seriousness of this yet there are folks around here who are still skeptical that this is all a concoction of the media's making. To believe this narrative you'd have to believe that the media and democrats have a vested interest in crashing the fucking economy to make Trump look bad. Do you realize how asinine that is?

    your originial claim, that trump called the virus a hoax, was that true?

    bud it looks like you backed yourself into TDS corner here, where any statement, regardless of truth, cannot be made if it sides with trump in any possible way. maybe your lib friends will calll you a racist.


    i ask again. did trump claim the virus was a hoax, as was your previous claim? yes or no?

    I posted that to show how easily it could have been misconstrued from the headline.

    I have no problem with disagreement over policy etc.... we as a people should be interested in government.

    besides politics is the only sport we have right now except for the international Wuhan flu sweepstakes...

    carry on

    Jan. 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.” — Trump in a CNBC interview.
    It was not under control then and it is not under control now.

    Or...how about this one...."if you want a test, you can have a test..." Another blatant lie.

    But hey, you know what my friend...the beauty of America is that you can believe whatever you want. Isn't that grand? You can believe every word that comes out of his mouth if you want. If you want to believe that all of Trump's motives were pure and honest then I cannot stop you from believing that. I think otherwise.

    We do have it under control as best we can. Or would you rather martial law?

    what would you do better?

    We have a lot of test. Though if you aren’t sick, why do you need a test? Surely you are smart enough to understand what he means?

    Why all the got ya questions???

    What would you have him say NC.

    We are all screwed ..... run for your life, buy up all the toilet paper you can folks. Folks, we are not fine .... we are all gonna die from COVID19 so ya might as well get those wills in place, might want to leave everything to the grandkids .... cause your kids are going to die just like you. For those of you who don’t want to wait for the agonizing, gasping DEATH you are about to experience, step up and drink a cup of this cool aid.

    Better?

    Wait, do you think it’s a possibility to completely stop the spread of the virus?
