  2. I was wondering how Fox News and Fauci were going to try to spin Trump's failure to act on this pandemic for ten weeks as being all Obama's fault.

    Turns out it was the "rules and regulations from am earlier time we were stuck with", referring I guess to the ones left over from Trump's gutting of the Health Structure set up by Bush and Obama to deal with exactly this sort of crisis.

    Verrrrry Interesting - but DUMB!

  3. So Hy-Vee's employees need more time to finish moving the few Name Brands they still stock to the very top and bottom shelves so the optimal shelf space can be entirely devoted to their crappy "Store Brand" merchandise?

    No wonder Price Chopper's stores are so crowded these days!

  4. @9:20, please feel free to verify these for yourself...

    “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.”
    Donald J. Trump (01/22/20)

    “Looks like by April, you know, in theory, when it gets a little warmer, it miraculously goes away.”
    Donald J. Trump (02/10/20)

    “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
    Donald J. Trump (02/24/20)
    [Note: The Dow Jones average closed at $27,960 that day, currently $19,941, $19,827 when he took Office]

    “When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”
    Donald J. Trump (02/26/20)

    “I would rather because I like the numbers being where they are,” Trump said. “I don’t need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn’t our fault. And it wasn’t the fault of the people on the ship either, OK? It wasn’t their fault either, and they’re mostly Americans. So, I can live either way with it. I’d rather have them stay on, personally.”
    Donald J. Trump (03/06/20)

    “Anybody that needs a test for coronavirus gets a test.”

    “I always treated the Chinese Virus very seriously, and have done a very good job from the beginning, including my very early decision to close the ‘borders’ from China - against the wishes of almost all,” wrote Trump, referring to the coronavirus with a term that many consider offensive and medical experts discourage. “Many lives were saved. The Fake News new narrative is disgraceful & false!”
    Donald J. Trump (03/18/20)

    And yet you comment on my post ”TDC – nothing to see here”!

  8. With Trump's raging dementia, no matter how many times you tell him something, he'll get it wrong, then deny he said it, and a week later call the video of him saying "false news"!
