What's really scary is that Trump has appointed Pence to be in charge of the coronavirus response here in the States. I say scary since it was because of Pence, back in 2013, who as governor of Indiana, was blamed for HIV reaching epidemic proportions in that state. The fool 'slashed public health spending and delayed the introduction of needle exchanges, which led to the state's worst outbreak of HIV.'. And he's now in charge of our government's response to the coronavirus epidemic. Great. Just fucking great. *smh*

It's probably just that Ivanka was busy.

Does this bother anyone else?
Forcing Americans to sign a loyalty pledge to a known human rights abuser seems....insane.

In 2016, Georgia Governor
Nathan Deal signed a law requiring any person or organization entering into a contract with the state worth at least $1,000 sign an oath promising that they would not oppose the Israeli government in any fashion. CAIR has reason to believe they could overturn the law its Georgia Executive Director, Edward Ahmed Mitchell, called “blatantly and hilariously unconstitutional.”
In 2018, Bahia Amawi, a Houston-based children’s speech pathologist who worked with autistic, speech-impaired and other developmentally disabled children, lost her job after she refused to sign a similar document. Amawi had been at her job for nine years previously without a problem. CAIR took up Amawi’s case and managed to overturn every Texas boycott law on the grounds of their unconstitutionality and she is now free to return to work. They appear confident of a similar victory in Georgia.

Mike Pence is just the type of guy who might believe that HIV is God's will; His punishment for drug addicts, gay men, and the unsafe & promiscuous. If people got infected, it was because they had sinned and (probably) they deserved it. If I had to think of one defining characteristic of today's Republican party, it's a lack of empathy and compassion.
And that seems to be a universal problem these days.
The Democratic party is too selective about who they choose to care about and who they do not. But most of my long time friends who are Republicans have adopted a bitter mentality of I'll take care of my own circle and everyone else can fuck off and die. That mentality won't result in making America great again, it will bring us down to tribalism.

By the way, Hillary was interviewed on German TV. When asked if she would run again she's changed her answer and now says "I think I'll leave that to the voters".
Bizarrely I can't find any US sites mirroring it. The closest I got was Breitbart and Fox news which censored that part of their interview from their reporting.

Mike Pence wants to ride the Pestilence Pony for the End Days.

Going by what I'm seeing on Facebook, this outbreak is a conspiracy by the MSM, working in conjunction with the Democrats to spread mass panic throughout the population, all in an attempt to bring down our strong economy to weaken Trump's chances at reelection in 2020.
What else could it be? Coronavirus isn't any worse than the flu, and it's effected the Dow Jones. Put two and two together, and WAKE UP SHEEPLE! DUUURRRR!

Listening to five minutes of Coming Down from Adderall Trump, gave me Corona Virus like symptoms. And you expect us to listen to 52 minutes of this shite?
Trump has no response and has put a superstitious twat in charge of the nation's health. Trump predicts that Covid19 will vanish soon, like a "miracle".
Worst thing for Canada is that without a cogent public response, south of the border, the USA will soon be the biggest disease threat to this country.

Here's how things are likely to play out.
The chances of this going pandemic are fairly low. I'd say things will be a little rough in the near term, but in about two months, we'll be seeing the end of this. Lots of lessons will be learned, a vaccine will eventually be produced, and we'll be well on our way towards preparing for another potential outbreak in the future.
Trump will play this for all it's worth, doing the usual greatest president ever routine, saying that the Democrats tried blocking him every step of the way, yadda yadda, and so on and so on, but he still persevered. He'll be hyping it up quite a bit for the 2020 election.
Now on the off chance it gets considerably worse, well, we'll get the usual spiel about the Democrats being to blame because they were mean to him, they blocked this, they blocked that, and the MSM spread lies and fake news to make us doubt his leadership, and all that good stuff. He'll play the They Hate America ploy.
In short, if operation Anti-Coronavirus is a success, we should thank Trump for all the hard work and dedication he's put in being the greatest, most genius president to ever live. If it's not, then it's someone else's fault, because he's the greatest, most genius president to ever live.
