Trump says ‘no way’ he will cancel the RNC in Charlotte, despite coronavirus

SouthernDemocrat said:
You are still lying. I said that you ignored the fact that Trump downplayed Covid-19 for over 2 months. You haven't proved anything other than a demonstration of your intellectual dishonesty.

I do not believe that statement at all. Still now that it is late March and Trump is taking massive action to stave it off, why are you complaining?

Why should he rule that out as a possibility? This was a good question for the use of the standard Trump answer of "We'll just have to wait and see what happens".

How can Trump predict it would be necessary this March to cancel an event coming in August? Suppose he said to cancel it now? What is that to accomplish? Worse, suppose he cancelled it for the Democrats? Think they would sit still for it?

And nothing with the time be bought by doing so. The reason why South Korea and Japan controlled the pandemic in their countries without shutting down their economies is they did a lot of testing and contact tracing early on. We have still haven't gotten anywhere near the testing per-capita of South Korea.

I think we all know what was on the Democrats minds then. They were whining loudly that Trump was not convicted.

My daughter the nurse says she too was not persuaded at first it would be too risky. She says they have no ICU beds occupied by CV patients but could be overwhelmed fast if some come in.

Why do you trumpers ask a question, then when it gets answered you just start talking about something else so much? :lol:

Why do you think we are having to shut our economy down, yet South Korea, a country with a much higher population density didn't have to shut down their economy? It's because while Trump spent 2 months incompetently downplaying the risks of Covid-19, South Korea engaged in an extensive campaign of testing and contact tracing. We still don't have near the per-capita testing of South Korea. So now we have to shut down our economy to curb the spread, but they didn't have to.

I never said that. This is you lying.

Go find me saying it was not a virus. Because of course we all know that the CORONAVIRUS is known to be a virus. :lamo

We said you were wrong to say it was simply the flu. Wow you lie a lot.

In fact... it was YOU that said it was a "PHONY VIRUS". Right there in my sig.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that Trump will not be attending that convention.

He's already starting to crumple under the pressure and since he has no experience in managing pressure or crises he will probably either resign or more likely catch the virus and succumb to it.

His sole management weapon seems to be to fire people, but he can't fire a virus, he can't wave his limp hands and make the nasty pandemic go away.

How can you stand the ideology of the Democrats? Are you in love with hundreds to thousands of more laws in your future? Are you in love with tax em higher and higher tax policy?

Which is exactly why my suggested response (which Trump offers quite often) would have been better.

I truly hope they have it and Trump and all his henchmen and all the Republican donor base and all the Republican congressmen attend and shake hands and pat each other on the back and eat.buffet together and make long speaches and brag about what a great job they are.doing with all the faux news commentators covering every minute.

That would thrill me to no end.

please. the Republicans aren't small government, and they're only going to chip away at laws that protect me because i'm a worker who isn't rich. plus their party depends on racist scumbags and bigots as an essential and valued part of the base. they literally can't win without them. the orange idiot has been dog whistling his ass off to them the whole time. Democrats are often idiots, can't prioritize for ****, and refuse to get us to the point where most of the first world has already been for decades, but at least they aren't Republicans. i mean, forming a cult around one of the most ridiculous idiots that we all grew up shaking our heads at? FFS.

How can you stand the ideology of the Republicans? Are you in love with sodomy laws that tell you how you can and cannot have sex with your wife? Are you in love with unstable crashing economies and lots of wars?

Functionally you compare a republic to a ordinary country. Korea has one government. We have 51 along with several more for territories.

Trump has not shut down america. He considered walling off 3 states but as of now has not done it even though it would contain the virus better than the current system.

Trump was being impeached and frankly that was on his plate not what was happening in China. Trump during his trial still shut off china. I would thank him for that were I you.

Why you complain over Trump as he was being impeached sure beats me.

It is childish when one thinks it over. I mean, did you believe Trump has magic and has the authority to quit the virus?

Republicans have no sodomy laws. Frankly marriage issues seem not to be on Trump's plate. I think you confused Democrats laws as being our laws.

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi released this statement after the Trump Administration announced it is adding Myanmar, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Nigeria, Tanzania and Sudan to the travel ban that the President instituted three years ago:

“The Trump Administration’s expansion of its outrageous, un-American travel ban threatens our security, our values and the rule of law. The sweeping rule, barring more than 350 million individuals from predominantly African nations from traveling to the United States, is discrimination disguised as policy.

Yours truly, Nancy Pelosi

Pelosi Statement on President Trump’s Expanded Travel Ban | Speaker Nancy Pelosi

Now they're complaining the president hasn't gone far enough!
It's little wonder why the Democratic Party isn't taken seriously.

We are small government. Perhaps you never heard that the Democrats are very powerful as to making laws. And have since 1933 made the lions share of laws.

We do fight racism. We proved it even back in 1964 and fought for blacks. Trump fights for them today.

We had a strong cult that favored Obama. Even the Clinton presidency was a cult for him.

Donald Trump can't cancel it. The RNC has more to do than nominate him. By August everything could operate normally anyway.

But . . . Did you notice he intentionally singled out the RNC? What about the DNC in Milwaukee?

Conservative laws.

Sorry. It's conservatives that try to manipulate and control people's lives. You learned wrong.

Were it up to me, the DNC would be the meeting cancelled. They earned the scorn.
