So the Trump went out and mislead Americans by deliberately playing down the severity of the coronavirus.....even though Trump fully understood that it was very deadly.

And good Lawd..... Woodward has the fucking tapes!!!

Per the CDC, only 9200 died of covid itself.

The other 180,000 or so deaths were from an average of 2.6 other co-morbid conditions.

Elkin lied about the people who died.

Wow, johnforbes is so out of it that now he's even calling Trump a liar.

Trump said COVID was a serious danger and deadly on a large scale.

Now johnforbes is saying it isn't.

So he's saying Trump is lying about it.

Either that, or Trump lied about the people who died. Either way Trump is a lair about COVID.

And johnforbes is just another sucker who fell for Trump's childish schtick.

When there was a run on toilet paper, hand sanitizers,
can goods, bread, fresh meats, etc..
The media started downplaying the virus, telling people not to panic..! :O

sillydummy, for months you and johnforbes have been telling us the media have been overblowing the threat of COVID.

You don't get to now pretend that all that time the media were downplaying the virus as not a serious threat, dimwit.

You can't have it both ways, dummy. Were you lying then or are you lying now?

It isn't "fair" to say that at all, dimwit.

At best he might have been blown just the right amount...or maybe not blown enough.

I've never known anyone who thinks there is a point where you've been blown too many times.

But since you lack a sense of humor and only misuse punning because you don't understand actual wit, all you have is thoughtless and humorless comments like that one.

From the very beginning, the media contradicted everything the President would say about the virus..
I think everyone understood he tried to calm things down, but the media called the number of cases each day "record-breaking''. and "unprecedented" and showing video clips of crowded ERs.
Then when people began hoarding and actually fighting in stores...the media, at least the local media is where I heard them trying to calm people down...But I think the national media like CNN just stuck to their agenda..! :O

So Democrat Woodward, from the Bezos-own tool Washington Post, had interviews he claims were crucial to helping Americans cope with covid?

Did he:

a) release that info immediately, or

b) hide it for half a year in the hope he could influence the 2020 election?

So Woodward has irrefutable recorded proof that Trump lied to johnforbes for months.

Did he:

a) Blame the guy who lied to him?

b) Blame the guy who got the proof and revealed that truth to him?


In the proud tradition of all humiliated and embarrassed conservatives, johnforbes shoots the messenger. He couldn't care less that he was lied to by trump because Trump is from his own party.

Lies are the food of choice for Republicans.

Woodward has always been unable to spot any problem with Democrats, and he only attacks Repubs.

He still works for the Bezos-owned attack rag the Washington Post.

So tell us something about Woodward that makes what he wrote to be untrue, johnny. You can't. You're simply making ad hominem attacks, which is all you ever have.

You can't refute a thing Woodward wrote. You're just here whining because your guy got caught with irrefutable evidence foolishly provided by your guy himself.

It isn't Woodward's job to catch everyone, dimwit. And your complaining about him catching the one's he catches is just idiotic. I'm grateful for any of them to be caught. For some reason you aren't. How do you explain your selective outrage, johnny?

The real question is why can't any conservative journalists catch the Democrats you are so convinced are equally bad?

To prevent panic, Trump said he sought to downplay covid.

Fauci defended what Trump said and did, and Saint Anthony of Fauci has been a Democrat demigod all year.

So what you're saying is, Trump lied to you and you are fine with that.

And you blame Woodward for not telling you sooner because if he had you would have believed him and changed your opinion of Trump, right?

Fauci and the Surgeon General have as much as said they lied about masks not being needed through March 31.

They did so because, at first, they all thought the risk to the US was tiny, as Fauci said on Feb 17.

They also wanted to conserve PPE for docs and nurses.

Do I approve of that as an approach?

Well, it might not be necessary for me and thee, but all of them -- Fauci, Birx, and Biden, and the expert doc Biden used -- did the same thing in order to not cause panic.

In other words, this is a bit of a complex issue where everybody thought it was no problem, they went to the Super Bowl, and it only dawned on everybody slowly that the virus would be a problem for America.

In early April, masks were said to be needed and eveybody emphasized lockdowns, sanitizer, etc.

Back in mid-March, my own body -- taut and tan, lean and lithe, strong yet supple -- was on the beach in Florida on vacation.
