Yeah you can’t diagnose pneumonia with telehealth. I guess they can remotely order you to get a chest x-ray.

I have a genuine hope that the good thing that comes of this is that the emergency authority granted to the various agencies who presumably have lifer experts that are not political will essentially get this out of the hands of Trump/Pence and the other idiots, and into the hands of the bureaucrats and experts.

Like we probably cannot do better than giving this to people who actually understand what is going on, and more importantly, give a shit about their mission of helping people.

He also sounds like he has a mental disability. Or a brain worm.

So, one of the things that is very obvious in the press conferences with the Danish Prime Minister is the application of social distancing - everyone is pretty much 2m from everyone else.

The White House has clearly never heard of this recommendation.

This is a really good time to take shots at the rest of the world.

Lol he had to get that dig in there on Obamacare. “Unlike websites in the past”

3401

If I was google, I wouldn’t want Trump to say my name anywhere near this shit show.

3402

Test is unnecessary. This will pass. FUCK HIM!

3403

“we don’t want people to test, because we feel they should not take a test if they not need it”

3404

Who the fuck starts a speech about a plague with, “What a pleasure it is to be here…”

3405

This will pass. Like the Black Death. And we’ll be stronger for it. As a famous philosopher once said, and you know, I said it before he did, but whatever, he said it too, he just took it from me: that which kills you only makes you stronger.

3406

The best people.

3407

“ONLINE WEBSITES ARE THE BEST”

3408

Fuck this woman and her kissing of the President’s ass right here. Jesus fucking Christ.

3409

“The President is very strong. The President is very wise. He has done many big things. I am not blinking in morse code for help.”

3410

Trump explains the concept of drive-thrus.

3411

Well… it could have been worse. He didn’t cause mass panic and confusion this time, like he did his prior address.

3412

It’s not over yet.

3413

Trump’s visibly bored.

I am trying to ignore the lies and sycophancy and listen to the actions described.

The actions don’t sound dumb. If she’s not lying about the new ‘automated testing process,’ then that is a real step.

EDIT: And thank goodness they put google in charge of the website. I would have expected it to go to one of the larger consulting firms, who would spend six months fucking it up.
