When did I say we wouldn't accept other stuff from china if we need it? All I talked about was the test kits. Not even sure why this is an issue.

Oh, so you'd accept a vaccine but not test kits. Got it.

The Supreme Court was about the virus, and forcing Americans to put themselves at risk to vote. In case you didn't know, the SC vote was 5-4. Care to guess the 5, or the 4?

If you don't want to call what he did lies, that's fine. The President of the US cannot publicly and very loudly repeatedly and intentionally grossly minimize and hope the virus away. BTW, saying it was basically just the flu was yet another lie (or again, use whatever term suits you).

And, again, what most reasonable people call optimism, you call "very loudly repeatedly and intentionally grossly minimize". It's hysterical, and not in the "ha-ha" kind of way.

You have to use hysterical terminology to try to make a point. And, again, information available along with past experiences drove the decisions that one does which will have the greatest effect on the most people in the most positive manner. You haven't come up with another solution ("that's not my job"), but you sure know this isn't the right one.

C'mon, man. Don't let hate win.

Pence blocking experts from appearing on CNN. OK with the Trump crowd, I presume.

As reported by.. you guessed it, CNN. Another made up story that will be gone a week later.

Why are you complaining about the Supreme Court now? Maybe if Democrats put up a half decent candidate or had actual policy you wouldn’t have 5 justices voting that way.

Wow, you walked into that one. We would have another if that a&#hole McConnell didn't block a nominee that even Orrin Hatch agreed is a great justice.

Not sure why I should care. CNN could cover the daily press briefings if they want to hear what they have to say. And have someone other than Acosta at those briefings to ask real questions that they want answered.

If Clinton won it would be 6-3 Democrats. Find a real candidate.

Listen. If you are able to watch all of his statements, and the contexts in which he expressed them, and why and how he put Pence in charge, and then later him in charge, and you still think the best description is "being optimistic" then I seriously feel for you. That's just not right, and not even in the ballpark of right. Most of your fellow Trump fans wouldn't even agree with you here.

I'm not the CDC. Though I doubt that they would accept a vaccine from China either. I was talking about supplies (and machinery) since you mentioned ventilators.

Agreed. Fox has an agenda to deflect away from Trump. CNN has an agenda to attack and discredit. Honestly, CNN's tactics are more dishonest, but I'm not in love with either.

Makes no sense to go on CNN and watch them twist everything around. They don't even hide their intention.

They don't need to have 2+ hours press conferences. It's so obvious what Donald is doing. You'll deny it, and then next you'll deny that he actually talks about the ratings of the briefings IN THE MIDDLE OF A BRIEFING.

CNN reports whatever billionaire Jeff Zucker and his de facto daddy Ted Turner want. All mainstream “News” organizations are just a front for personal agendas.

Again, you have come up with no other solution other than "Trump Bad".

He's a control freak and loves to hear himself talk. That puts him line with about 30% of the people I know. I look for the message, not the optics. I don't care about who's giving it. I don't care if his skin is orange, or he's overweight, or if he slept with a porn star. I look for the message, because I know they were given with the best intentions. To give hope. Heck...we had someone quite recently run an entire campaign on just "hope" and "change".

Some are glass-half full people; some are glass-half empty. Your decision on how you want to go through life. I'll practice the "hope for the best, plan for the worst" approach. You should too. The "I hate the past and hate the future" approach just gonna' wear you down.

He's there until the reporters stop asking questions. A President and his adviser's making themselves available to the press is a bad thing now? You guys pick the wackiest things to complain about.

Quick solution for you. Grab the remote, and change the freakin' channel.

Boom! Quick one, another problem solved.

Next?

She was a phenomenal candidate. But the Rs never would have let her even marginally succeed. Chaffetz, Gowdy, and crew told us that up front. Sad. And yes, it is political, and it's incredibly sad to watch the right wing take apart this country brick by brick.
