I’ll give Cheeto Jesus’s administration credit on the stimulus. Mnuchin looks serious about getting this right, where the Obama crew blew the 09 stimulus. Needs to be at BARE MINIMUM $1 trillion and needs to be out the door in the next couple weeks. Now isn’t the time to get fussy about the deficit. That was 2 years ago.

Wow you must be the exception. Isn’t PBS the choice of most libertarians.

Yep. The farmers quoted there are flat wrong on the issue.

Yea but think @FarmerJayhawk you won’t be at the mercy of the Chinese government anymore. You are protected by the trade agreement. Well unless we Get Biden as president. Then his son will get another sweet heart deal, and then who knows what Americans pay for it.

@DoubleDD @FarmerJayhawk has said numerous times that he is a libertarian. he doesn't have a party. Your comment isn't really a response to the issues he raised. You're repeating talking points. This isn't an effective way to have a discussion. What does Hillary treating the Midwest as flyover country have anything to do with Trump being a jackass? The answer is "nothing at all."

Again it’s about perception. You say jackass, others say a president that speaks their mind regardless of the consequences. Believe it or not a lot of Americans love that quality. It better than making promises you never intend to keep. Only making those promises to get elected.

Say one Thing about Trump he didn’t lie about what he was going to do if elected. He’s pretty kept all his promises.

The wall, repeal the ACA, make a beneficial trade deal for farmers, making college more affordable, rebuild infrastructure off the top of my head.

I’ll give you the aca, but it wasn’t for a lack of trying. Just couldn’t get the house controlled Reps to get on aboard. Just curious are you a fan of the ACA? Seems like a contradiction from you? As for the others? Some things you can’t do without the approval of Congress. And can we be honest here? I’m mean you being a Liberian in all. He isn’t going to get anything from the HOR lead by a Dem party.

I appreciate the farmers taking one for the team as We Americans finally got a president that had the balls to stand up to China. Yet it wasn’t like he left you guys high and dry.

Then don’t promise to get it done. Easy. Nah, he just has cost me tens of thousands so far and I got a fraction of that back in a dumbass bailout. Yippeee. Those are facts.

Could you imagine if we adopt UBI (already being pitched around as Mit Romney's idea), it works well, and becomes part of the Republican platform? @FarmerJayhawk could this actually happen?

Oh it’s happening. Sec. Mnuchin is telling Senators we need something like at least $1 trillion in stimulus or we could face 20% unemployment.

@DoubleDD said in Differentiating fact from opinion on COVID-19:

@FarmerJayhawk look I get you and a few others want and need to blame someone. Might as well be the president. Yet reality is The current President has handled the coronavirus better than the previous president did with the H1N1.

I criticized Obama then. It's not about D's and R's. I could care less. I'm assigning blame where it's due. Ultimate blame goes with the CCP, but Trump is far from blameless here. Sometimes I think he could be saying the whole thing is a hoax and his supporters would be like "yep, my neighbor died and my mom is sick but it's just the flu because Trump said China and Nancy Pelosi are making things up to beat him!"

Liked both links, however I think I drew a bit different conclusion. It appears to me this is classic big government red tape. Unfortunately with some red tape a sitting president has to go through the Congress to remove such red tape. The president could use executive powers, but sometimes those executive orders can and do wind up in court. As has been the case with so many of the presidents executive orders.

Not really. The President has almost unlimited authority to waive executive branch regulations. When EO’s contradict Congressional intent that’s when things get hairy.

Not so sure. Meaning a lot of the current presidents executive orders did go to court even though everybody knew he had the right to pass the executive order in the first place. Merely bogging down the process or the presidents agenda.

Find the right judge and you can definitely make it hard for the president to do anything.

It wouldn’t even be an EO in this case. Just HHS changing internal guidance, which happens all the time. Fact is they blew this.

For Trump saying Obama always apologized and made too many excuses, he sure does the same thing.

Now we both know you are full of crap. The president doesn’t apologize in less he’s being sarcastic. Lol

Nah, he just makes excuses for everything. Nothing is ever his fault. Always someone else's. Gets rid of the pandemic unit on the NSC (by his own order) and says he didn't know anything about it. Now he's either lying or incompetent.

@DoubleDD see my list of the President's failings and @benshawks08 's amendments which I would hope you would not ignore, as they are the facts.

It's a fair point you made that much of the world is struggling with this. But that doesn't excuse Trump's response, which has been mostly weak, counterproductive, self-absorbed, misinformed and confused.

Could have trump acted sooner? Of course, but remember we are a government of checks and balances. Imagine if Trump tried to close down the borders sooner? Or put in travel bands? The Dem party and the media would have painted him as a racist and so on.

The important thing? Is this task to fight the coronavirus, is on the right course. The manpower, and resources are being put in the right places.

This blaming Trump does no good and accomplishes nothing. Except this will hurt the Dem party at the ballot box. Once again the Dem party is showing all they care about is removing the President.

Everyone was telling the administration to do something when it was obvious this was way worse than they wanted to admit. There’s just no excuses for their failing here. It killed people. It showed Trump, the self professed maker of the best deals, can’t run a popsicle stand without his staff explaining things to him in crayon. He’s proud to not read the information they give him and just go with his gut. No way to run a branch of government.

Neither party is perfect (or even good right now tbh) but Congressional Democrats are at least passing a stimulus package.

This should make all you happy?

It’s an upgrade over the guy that decided not to enhance our testing capability a month ago because low numbers are good politics. https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-trump-high-infection-rate-dent-reelection-report-2020-3 ↗

Huh? Nah it couldn’t be that there was a realization that test kits were not cutting the grade, and a update was needed? I’m mean let’s forget the rest of the world was having the same problem. Let’s pay no attention to that evidence.

Hate Trump much?

No, I don’t hate politicians. I just expect basic competence. If the tests were garbage (not clear) he should order the CDC and local labs develop their own. Instead, it took a lab in Seattle developing and publishing results in defiance of the CDC to put this thing out there.

That’s pretty much what he has done. I mean I guess you can be pissed he didn’t do it earlier? What I can’t figure out is why more people aren’t upset with the Chinese government? They are speculating that the Chinese government knew about this virus for months before telling the rest of the world.

Not really. The lab in Seattle had to go rogue to get the warning out because the Trump administration said no, you can’t run that test. And Trump explicitly said we don’t want tests because low numbers is good politics. He blew this a month ago.

The Chinese blew it much, much worse. This isn’t in dispute. A Democratic plot? That’s Sean Hannity tinfoil hat stuff.

No idea if true, but I’ve read that Italy has high fatality rates because they refuse to treat elders and are letting in take it coarse..... sad if true, but unsure.

They’re doing triage on elderly people because there aren’t enough beds so they’re playing the odds and saving as many as they can. It’s horrible. And there’s not a thing they can do about it.
