Maybe I'm like Maher, a liberal who understands when we are being lied to and when we are not.
there's lying going on on both sides.....between that and social media it's hard to know what to believe.....I watch local news now and that's it......tired of all the BS from everybody

He's dead on with this video. The media is scaring everyone in to believing this is the apocalypse. This is like Y2K fear. The media LOVED that event. I also loved his stats that he put out there.

I am not Maher fan but it makes sense. My thing here is that Trump (or probably anyone who would have been pres) can't win. If he had shut everything down as soon as he found out he would have caught hell for panicking early......so he waited and now folks say he waited too long and didn't do enough....would not want his job for anything right now...you can tell it's wearing on him

I agree about Trump, BUT I think his initial response was the wrong one. Even if he did believe it to be a "not so big issue", he should have said it in a better way like "we are aware and will monitor and make the necessary adjustments needed". Instead he went on a rant against the "fake news" outlets. That was his problem. That has been my biggest disagreement about his handling of the issue. I support his reaction to the governors who have overstepped their bounds.

Fact is that some of these so-called "liberals" on here are the problem. They are millennial liberals and that's not me. This millennial generation is just not ready to grow up or help, they just want to cry....*****....moan....complain....give up.......

The World has come to an end, as I actually agree with most of what LibTard Maher says in this video. Even Maher knows that the New York Times publishes, "fake news."

Remember last year when I said they were not Classic Liberals or even liberal. I even encourage the conservatives to stop calling them liberal.

Some of them are actually follow Nazi ideology. Some of follow Communist ideology. They serve the same master. Conservatives and Liberals working to solve real American problems hurts their profit.

I think early on Trump was skeptical because of the media hype. He was listening to his health officials who were also downplaying it...early on.

He got the memo, then shut down China flights on his own once they narrowed it to Wuhan province. But MWV makes some good points, the media "apocalypse" reporting is out of control and bears no resemblance to the actual threat. Everyone freaked out because the media did.

1- Trump being a salesman, always upsells everything with a positive outlook.
2- Trumps medical advisors always give the most negative stats in an attitude that we do nothing to change the outlook..
3- The MSM hates that orange haired dog that took down Hillary and will do anything possible to take Trump down.

Occam's Razor is a line of reasoning that says the simplest answer is often correct

If you look back at recent history, then it's difficult to agree with your argument in bold. No U.S. President in the past 30 years would have reached the conclusion that a pandemic were on the horizon, and shut his country down, based upon the limited information that leaked out of China in January. Just imagine if our economy had shuttered when SARS, Ebola or H1N1 was discovered. The President would have ruined his country's economy for little more than nothing.

He made the right decision based on what we didn't know and how unprepared the world was to deal with it. The death count will be lower because of the steps taken. Now that we are better prepared we can start to reopen things. He ripped the band aid off instead of death by a million + cuts. Some are going to rewrite history to attack Trump no matter what steps were taken. At least now more will be around to read it.

If you want to see a celebrity that appears to have a different perspective than past behavior, try this.

Brian Stelter is a douche bag. Nobody believes Morgan is a real Trump supporter.

  1. He’s not a salesman - he’s the President
  2. They are better at leadership in a health crisis than someone that thrives on con....or I mean, selling to people
  3. Yes he is an orange dog, yes they hate him

Trump should be so easy for the Left to defeat if all he's about is being a phony carnival barking salesman selling snake oil. Why do they have such trouble coming up with a better candidate or better policies to dust him off?

It's cause they're stuck with me atl...and I'm just too hard to handle

Yet I prefer a salesman to a president who traveled the world bowing to leaders of all nations apologizing for the USA being a strong world power.
