As President Trump attempts to blame President Barack Obama for his own handling of the coronavirus outbreak, it’s important to document Trump’s comments during this public health crisis.
These are not utterances from some of his more rambling news conferences or from his advisers. These are Trump’s most direct statements as a global pandemic took hold.
January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.” (CNBC)
February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.” (Fox News)
February 10: “A lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat—as the heat comes in.” (Bloomberg)
February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock market starting to look very good to me.” (Twitter)
February 26: “It’s going very substantially down, not up… The 15 within a couple of days, is going to be down to zero.” (CNN)
February 27: “It’s going to disappear one day, it’s like a miracle.” (Twitter)
March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.” (Wired)
March 6: “I didn’t know people died from the flu.” (CNN)
March 6: “I like the numbers being where they are.” (Washington Post)
March 10: “It will go away. Just stay calm. It will go away.” (Twitter)
March 13: “I don’t take responsibility at all because we were given a set of circumstances and we were given rules, regulations, and specifications from a different time.” (New York Times)

And the Cult says….
“So What?”
True on that Jack…
His faithful won’t accept reality…
Reality….
Global: Total confirmed cases as of 1:18 p.m. ET: 175,250 — Total deaths: 6,706
U.S.: Total confirmed cases as of 10:30 a.m. ET: 3,813 — Total deaths: 69
Axios…
Reality:Those figures. as to total number of cases ,reflect only those tested.
There are projected that there are thousands more who haven’t been tested or are asymptomatic ,yet are fully capable of passing on the virus to others.
Give it up.
As usual, you have no idea of what’s really going on,
My feeling goes beyond that…
The virus HAS BEEN here most likely longer that people think….
One would think we’re probably cycles behind ….
Give what up?
Well that’s my point.
You have no idea how many people are infected so what was the point of your so called
“Reality”
Oh yes and making a big deal about the stock market rising Friday?
Less than an irrelevancy.
The stock market will continue to decline as long as this virus continues to spread.
Dr Fauci is the only member of Trumps “team” that is trying to tell the truth.The rest, including the pathetic SG Adams,Pence,Azar are nothing but two bit babbling political sycophants of Trumps.And remember Fauci is a holdover who was there before the Cult takeover .
I watched Bill Maher’s show where he mentioned that Joe Biden and Dr. Fauci are basically seen as shadow Presidents now.
I had to unfriend several people (not close friends or relatives) on Facebook after a string of anti-science pro-Trump rah rah posts on Friday about the stock market taking a step forward after three steps back last week.
It’s the anti-science stuff that really did it. Not that I differ with them politically.
Oh and one said Nancy Pelosi was an “old bitch who needs to be hanged” for supposedly including abortion funding in the Covid-19 relief package.
