To be fair, NYC is a coronavirus hotspot. But so are New Orleans and a little town called Albany, Georgia, which doesn't even register on most population density maps.

Cuomo is smarter than Trump.

That lie has been repeatedlly debunked. Trump streamlined forces because there was too much duplication.

You can keep telling yourself that the firing and defunding got rid of duplications, but even Fox News acknowledges that what Trump did left the US without personnel and organizations to address the epidemic. You seem to have an unlimited capacity to believe outright lies if they are told by the Trump administration. I'm wondering how you will respond when some member of your family gets the virus after you have repeatedly said everything was under control.

Ditto in addition to the Trump admin saying nothing for weeks and weeks or perhaps months and months

This group of anti american RINO's obviously decided to allow this matter to swell in order to call for Emergency Powers that will be abused beyond reality.

IMPEACH THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ACROSS THE BOARD !!!!!!!

You are operating under the delusion that your making wagers on the number of human beings that will become ill and die from this pandemic....is honorable.

Personally, I think that is really disgusting, and the fact that you take pride in it shows a serious lack of empathy.

Well, except the president banned travel from China in January, within days of the first case being known in the US. In fact the president was called a racist by Democrats for doing so, and leftwing pundits said he should be much more concerned about the flu which they said is much more deadly.

Leftwingers constantly rewrite history, don't they?

What is REALLY disgusting is the leftwing cheering on of the high numbers and wanting them to go higher in order to hurt Trump. My numbers are low, and THAT is what angers you leftwingers.
Please spare me the crocodile tears. You don't give a damn about people.

Consider this.

Even the experts in the field don't have a frame of reference for the size, speed and scope that this viral outbreak has gone. Right now, ask any number of these experts the same questions and you don't get the same answers, and the answers you do get are at best partial. The world hasn't seen something like this since 1917, and the entire world, including all the experts in the field, all were unprepared for how this has started to play out.

Some are already back to playing their political games, believing that there's political advantage to be had. This isn't helping, not in the least.

Some are playing their political games blaming the administration to be unprepared, but I would contend that ANY administration faced with this would have been unprepared.

Some are playing their political games blaming the administration for their response. Since when have government response been any better? Never has.

Some are playing their political games believing that subpoenaing the very people working 20 hours a day on the federal virus response would be more effective sitting around on capital hill answering stupid question from grandstanding House committee members, in the middle of the response effort.

Such stupid political games will be the death of this nation, as it already has been the death of congress' credibility in the eyes of the electorate. It's why their job approval poll results are so miserable.

I agree that there are so many political games being played against this president.

Why is that a surprise?

When you have nothing of substance to offer the electorate, and you political party has failed and is divided, this is all that's left. Substance-less political games.
 
Re: What in the Hell is Wrong with New York?; Now Have Nearly Half the COVID-19 Cases

This is one of the reasons NYC is in such bad shape now.





Pay particular attention to 0.57 onward.





GO TO THE PARADE!!!!

We can always blame Trump later.

Your comment about Lent is out of line. It is a personal attack that has nothing to do with anything.

My purpose with the New York comment is to say maybe this situation isn't as dire and escalating for the nation as a whole as it appears to be. New York is badly skewing the illness and the number of deaths, and is escalating a panic that is causing the rest of the nation to take drastic shut-down measures that are extremely costly and harmful, and may be unnecessary.
Click to expand...

Yeah, and the New York experience badly skewed the number of deaths on 9/11 too. Even so, the panic escalated.

And for a while back in the day the city had three, count 'em, three, major league baseball teams while the entire state of California had none

They have a far left communist mayor who is hell bent on control of the people and a left wing gubner, both of whom poo-pooed this virus against ll admonitions against doing so. They went ahead and heavily promoted the Chinese New Years parade where upwards of 20,000 people attended,mpst of whom were Chinese (of course) who undoubtedly had Chinese friends over for the celebrations and most certainly many would have visited their homeland, flying to and from and possibly consuming bats, iguanas, snakes, baby bars in cages, and all manner of strange animals that we in America never heard of.

But......according to these two clowns and the officials in New York,it was important not to "stigmatize" the Chinese, even though imbeciles KNEW this disease came from Wuhan in November andwas covered up by the leaders of China, thereby causing many thousands of deaths. But....in this new Orwellian world we live in, these truths canot be told. If I were to put this post on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter, it would be taken down. The truth ca no longer bespoken in this new totalitrain country.

Our illustrious mayor here In Los Angeles went on TV and said "It's OK to snitch (on people on their front lawns and such). You will be rewarded for it". He is Hitler in waiting.

Excellent post and echos my sentiments exactly. She is a Doctor AND a THE Health Commissioner, but she isn't the only one. De Blasio and Cuomo and many others were encouraging attendance for solidarity with the "Chinese" almost to the point of demanding people show their support. They all have the stench of death on their money grubbing hands. They would have lost millions if they closed it down, and those same clowns say Trump is more worried about money than lives.

Why would they not celebrate Chinese New Year with a parade. It was Feb. 12 and the only announcement about the coronavirus from Trump was on February 2 , 2020 and he said, "We pretty much shut it down coming in from China". His new pronouncement about the coronavirus wasn't until Feb. 24, 2020 When he said, Coronavirus pretty much under control in the USA. Stock market starting to look very good to me"

Umm, because the disease came from China and all these Chinese propel traveled to and from China and across the world it was known the China virus had already infected thousands.
 
Re: What in the Hell is Wrong with New York?; Now Have Nearly Half the COVID-19 Cases

Haven't you been watching CNN, MSNBC and the rest? They'll tell you that it's ALL Trump's fault! The state and city governments have NO responsibility to do any preparation. Trump is responsible for doing everything! Lol. People fall for that nonsense too...

They already had positive cases of Chinese virus by the time NYC was telling people to go to the Chinese Lunar New Year parade in China Town. Where do you think people from China stay when they visit family in New York. Where do you think relatives of people from China infected with with the Chinese virus might stay while in New York visiting their families. Or where they might go when they want some home cooking while in New York? Any guesses of the top of your head? The NYC Health Commissioner is a doctor for Christ sake. She has had immunology. She SHOULD have known better and shut it down like Trump shut down travel from China .

While I don't agree with him. They arrested a preacher for holding church but let pedophiles and sex offenders out of jail because of the same virus. Strange world.
