Coronavirus Threat To U.S. Economy, Trump 2020
Nearly overnight, conventional wisdom about the 2020 outlook — solid growth for the U.S. economy, no Fed interest-rate moves, and President Trump's reelection — has gone out the window.

Dow Jones Dives As Coronavirus Upends Outlook For Fed, 2020 Election, U.S. Economy

Yeah, great idea President Poopstain.

Trump Proposes 16% Cut To CDC As Global Number Of Coronavirus Infections And Deaths Rise

As long as the cities go first. We can all dream....

Don't care if ya live in Gooberville population 127. If this baby keeps getting worse, it ain't just the cities my friend.

Coronavirus cases top 8,200 — surpassing 2003 SARS outbreak in less than a month

And what has Dear Leader done? Cut CDC budget by 16%, woefully inadequate ask for 2 billion, and downplayed the whole dang deal because he knows if the market keeps tanking, it will affect his big, beautiful economy and reelection chances.

Hey, where are the clowns who said the comeback would be today ... Get those bargains!

You are an idiot. Cutting 2 billion dollars is chump change for the bloated federal government who has more PORK(people who dont do shit)in their agencies, and could use a few months on the unemployment line. But you go ahead and want the government to come in and save the day, because it is President Trumps government...oops, can you live with that?

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

The left knows the only possible way their comrade Bernie Bolshevic can win, is for the economy to tank horribly.

Why, so the Bernie can come in and TANK it even more?

The way this thing is spreading, you really WILL need to live in your underground bunker for months to avoid it, too. It is managing to get everywhere and just like the HIV virus, you can be infected for days or weeks before you test positive.

We (humanity) need not worry......
Mother nature WILL thin the heard. It's happened throughout history. Modern medicine has delayed the process, but that just means that when she comes charging back, it's gonna be a wipe out. A new virus will evolve, anti-biotics will become useless or something. Guaranteed. Billions will go at once. it's part of nature.

China's working on mutated pathogens that only affect humans without certain Asian genes.
No proof at this time.....but they're innovative and scientifically evolving rapidly. Plus, they don't have government restrictions.

Looks like the Chinese Effed themselves trying.....this time. (and everyone else in the process)
Do human fuck ups count as Mother Nature? I mean, after all, humans are part of nature?

As long as they are liberals, because those mother fuckers are demons incarnate...And yes they would use a biological agent to cull about 6 billion people, the moronic liberal lazy fucks included.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

As a moderate, that is someone who is too ashamed to admit they are liberals..

Not true.

Now once again, those who want to protect and serve this country from being a Socialist Shithole, you have an issue with? Really?

No. You are just parroting winger shit you hear from right wing news. Peddling fear that entitlements programs=socialist shit hole. You seem to run on talking points with absolutely no substance underneath. America will never adapt a socialist government. I see absolutely no truth in what you are saying, it's never been true in the entire history of this nation, and it won't be true even if Sanders wins. I think his policies are too expensive and I don't see a clear path to how they will be sustainable in the future, but that's another argument altogether. If he becomes president, you'll witness a ton of broken promises, just like with every previous president, including the present.

Do you really think men with tits are normal? That a man puts his penis in another mans ass is normal?

I'm a heterosexual, so none of that is my cup of tea. But neither of these preferences affect me personally, so I have no reason to be outraged about them. I mind my own fucking business.

Oh yeah, it was the "moderates" that gave us 8 years of the brown turd Oblummer.

And you bozos gave us the human shaped orange sack of meat currently shitting all over the WH, so I guess we're even.

No, I am a military veteran who served this country to prevent shitheads like Bernie from every taking this country down a socialist shithole. I saw what it did to the Soviet Union, Cuba, South and Middle America, but those sorry ass moderates just had to vote in the brown turd, who took over GM and Chrysler, enacted the Cash for Clunkers debacle, took away healthcare from 10s of millions to provide health care for 100s of thousands of liberal do nothings. I lived back then, I remember, I know what was happening while Oblummer was in office and knew the American populace would wake the fuck up. Now we have 4 successful years of a business man running this country like a business, and the leftwing nutters keep showing US their incompetence and immorality. So "liberal" to ashamed to admit you are a liberal, are you going to continue this move to keeping America great, or go for the toilet drain once again by voting for some Commie bastard?

If you were honest and truthful what you saw in the Soviet Union and Cuba, plus a few banana republics which were of short duration; each were totalitarian, not socialistic, for the leaders in those nations profited for themselves and their cronies and persecuted anyone who dissented.

Maybe you ought to compare Trumpism with these nations you so abhor.,

You can't have actual Socialism without the totalitarianism - ( I know that you don't believe that - and that's okay, I don't consider you to be very bright)
President Trump is the absolute anthesis of totalitarian.
He is the people - the people are him.

I disagree. Socialism and Capitalism both exist in every country on Earth to some degree. All of Northern Europe are social welfare states, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Finland, and Ireland. Almost all of the remainder of Europe has some type socialize healthcare, as well as employment safety nets. Canada and Great Britain have strong social welfare programs and the US is not too far behind. None of these countries are totalitarian states.

Socialism carried to the extreme will become a totalitarian state. Capitalism carried to the extreme will result in a corporatocracy. Neither is desirable. A balance between socialism and capitalism is most desirable. Capitalism provides the incentive to produce and socialism provides the safety nets for those who can not.

Capitalism carried to the extreme will not result in corporatocracy but free markets and freedom, it is when liberals get involved with capitalism and turns it into cronie capitalism where the liberal billionaires make out like badits and the rest of the people get turned into serfs. Right old lady?

Nice.

His tweet not withstanding, you can’t blame the collapse on the blob

I know we couldn't get your fat ass into that thing. The only thing big enough for you smelly ass is a black hole.

actually the reverse is true instead of stuffing the homos ass into the cannon...... the cannon would easily fit inside Dr Gayloves gaping torn asshole !

Charming! ^

whatever DrGaylove ....

Not gay personally, however you are a definite concern.

It will recover. Stating it's a threat to President Trump 2020 is ridiculous

Still ready to trade a Drumpf, his albino sidekick and a Billy Barr for Trudeau?

You actually WANT the economy to tank. That is sick.

 

[Billiejeens]

Dimms are so unhinged and desperate that they are rooting for a potential pandemic in their attempts to beat Trump.
Despicable!!!

We aren't "rooting" for it. It's on its way.

If it decimates NYC, Chicago, LA, and San Fran. it wouldn't be the worst thing.

Yep, not only confused but a fucking idiot.

I did forget Miami.

Why not wish death on Portland and Seattle too? How murderous authoritarian of you!

Good choices, for sure.

Time has a magnificent way of smoothing out price swings in stock prices.

I've profited tremendously over the years by simply doing nothing.

Time in the market is far better than timing the market.

I don't allow "fear", especially the irrational type, to guide my investment philosophy.

Hang in their BABY (oh, and SNAG them "bargains")

Latest info....2-15 day incubation period before symptoms show.
Grant it, this is a wide period.

Drumpf should replace the current shill/conspiracy dude heading the CDC with YOU as ACTING CDC Director!!

If Coronavirus spread can’t be stopped and has anywhere near the 5% mortality rate it has shown so far, all markets are going to crash.

Well, it dropped a whole bunch again today. Wonder what tomorrow is gonna bring? And, while there IS a drug company who has a possible vaccine for this virus, human trials haven't started yet, and the virus is spreading.

Sorry, but I think this is gonna have a bad effect on the market for several days to come yet.

[Rye Catcher]

Trump has to be defeated. The Dems have had a less than impressive response. Sometimes help comes in funny packages. A tiny virus may do the trick, if it really does throw ice water on the economy.

No one wanted this damned thing and I sure didn't want to read this today. But it's here so there's no sense ignoring it.

Of course trump made a statement which was the opposite, I suspect in the same way he claimed he was smarter than the generals and smarter than the Intelligence Community. This man-child is a danger to all of us:

Trump’s Upbeat Virus Prediction Undercut by New CDC Warning

"President Donald Trump sought to reassure Americans on Tuesday that the coronavirus outbreak poses little threat, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned hours later to prepare for the disease to disrupt daily life in the U.S."

One more effort to mislead the American People. I wonder, he wants his followers to attend his rallies, is this why he made these comments, with total disregard for the health and well being of his base?
