President Trump Gave His First COVID-19 Briefing In Months. Here’s How It Went. | MSNBC

President Donald Trump spent about half an hour speaking to reporters, without any other members of the coronavirus task force present. Notably, he seemed to have changed his tone on masks, urging people to wear them when they can’t social distance and saying masks “could potentially certainly help” stop coronavirus. But he also said a lot of things about COVID-19 that are just not true. Aired on 7/21/2020.

President Trump Gave His First COVID-19 Briefing In Months. Here’s How It Went. | MSNBC

Trump now says “wearing mask is patriotism”. But he’s not wearing mask. That makes him unpatriotic.

[RazSkull]

This man needs to go like yesterday. Every Republican is guilty of throwing the country under the bus for him and their own gains.

[leeannedowdell]

He doesn’t like the criticism about his weak COVID-19 response so he has a press conference and repeats ALL the things he is criticised for.

[segolenebaraine]

It is excruciating watching him. His discomfort at almost 'admitting' he was wrong is priceless.

[teardowndan]

"It will get worse before it gets better" yes, it will get worse because there are six months of you still being in the WH left, it'll get better after you are gone and competent people are allowed to run the show again.

[albrown]

"We're in the process of developing a strategy" = I got nothing

[Dhairyasheel]

He thinks this is a reality TV show... He said it himself, he wanted to resume the briefings because of the TV ratings...

[ZonDog]

It took him months to change his tune, while thousands died . Too little, too late!!! Toodaloo!!

[rookforce]

" I told my people slow the testing down" "You gonna find more cases" Donald J Trump (SAT dodger)

[MarcF.Nielssen]

Key sentence: "We are developing a strategy..."
For this neglicence and betrayal alone Trump must be prosecuted.

[garydavidson]

Trump will send in the troops for a few blocks in Seattle but a federal response on the virus CRICKETS

[NoHandleTexas]

I believe the use of masks was recommended months ago, as usual, he’s late and wrong.

[goonern]

The Dr is standing outside. I'll take it from here. This would be funny if it wasn't so sad and dangerous.

[tzvikrasner]

This was Trump wanting a rally after being denied one twice.

[bg]

He wished GISLAINE MAXWELL WELL??? Keeping in her good books so she won’t spill the beans on him??

[jaybomb]

The FIRST BRIEFING CAMPAIGN ramble ramble blah blah

[daudabappa]

Only Trump would use the first COVID briefing in months to pour sympathy on an alleged child trafficker.

[stockholm]

“In other words, he just lied again. Look at this chart...” 📈

[chrisromero]

Its a little bit late now. Now he's trying to save his re-election bid.

[yorthanikolis]

There is a proverb in Chinese that goes, " Trump is a turd" seems accurate.
Where is the feltcher pence?
