I will comment on what you said later as I am busy now. I meant that as more of a rhetorical question, not because I was looking for an answer but because I wanted to make sure you asked yourself that question, about what yur persona priorities are. I read an interview with David Tepper a couple...

The problem is, trump is in an election year, and that means, when making certain decisions, he will always have that in the back of his mind. In a crucial situation like this, we better hope the head of the country has what's best for the people, and not what's best for him personally, as his...

that's pretty much how every "global apocalypse" movie starts. It's been several days now of this in Spain. 1585176109 Trump is just kicking the can 2 weeks down the road. He knows well this package is just a temporary bandaid, hence why he wants everyone back to work. The reality is until we...

Fair question to you: Imagine you knew that re-opening the country, and thus the stock markets recovering, in 2 weeks would result in a death toll of 'only' another 10,000 people. Which would you take - getting your portfolio back on track (and a proper Easter mass to boot) or the lives of those...

Or an Easter egg all over his face ... It depends, there are a few different versions, I believe - I think in the west it is indeed the "emperor", in other parts of the world it's the "king".

Yep. Supplies are on the way, the Swiss are sending us a new test, the medical ships are beautiful, everything is under control and the country will reopen in 2 weeks. At least for now, the King has clothes.

that's because he is having briefings every other day. Morons out there hear him talk and make empty promises and they think he is being proactive and doing god's work. He keeps saying tests and supplies are on the way, but nothing is ever arriving ... just buying time to mask his...

Maybe down the line. I don't expect much from this administration, tbh. Making wholesale changes would require willingness to look in the mirror and admit failure. Can you honestly imagine Trump doing that?

Don't know, entirely possible. I honestly don't pay much attention to what comes out of his mouth as I expect all of it to be a lie. One day this twat is finally gonna say a truth and I am gonna miss out on it.

I agree. I don't know how many ventilators they had in reserve but a city of this proportions should have a huge stockpile. That's in theory, at least. In practice, when you have such a huge population, packed like sardines, I think you are bound to underestimate how much of pretty much anything...

Trump mere hours after 9/11: something like that tells you everything you need to know about a man ...

A few years ago when there was no sign of an apparent threat? I remember Trump ignoring an existent threat less than a month ago :P This is just Donald passing the blame onto someone else, as he always does.

true. I had some sitting around from before and got the last package at a local Walgreens before the craze hit the US. What we do is reuse these medical masks - spray sanitize them and then wash them with soap and hot water in between uses. Only way for 20-30 masks to last you thru all this.

good boi :touched: I am pretty much the same. For my parents and myself, I must have spent $1k on sanitizing supplies (a shit-ton of Lysol antibact. wipes, hand sanitizer, laundry sanitizer, Tide antibacterial spay, Lysol all-purpose cleaner, you name it) alone over the past 3 weeks or so. Can't...

Those numbers just don't add up. And that is the central part of the problem. That's the reason behind the shortage for ventilators - Cuomo told the mighty American Industrial Complex to make him 26K ventilators and they had them produced overnight. But then it turned out he really needed 29.6K...
