He was being impeached in January, you don't remember a whole month sitting on the articles. You were calling him racist when he did close China. We'd be in a state of emergency now if he listened to you.Do you think Trump could have done a better job without Mueller and a 5yr Russian hoax and a 6 month fake impeachment on his ass 24/7.Capitalism holds solutions to all our problems is a given for right wingers. Everything has always been boiled down to "CAPITALISM GOOD --- SOCIALISM BAD", yet the only steps we are taking are things that the right has condemned as anti-American for years. Not a single capitalist idea in the batch . Why not? Surely some of the smart right wingers here have figured out several ways that capitalism can easily get us beyond this problem. Here's your chance. Show us how capitalism can solve this.
Think maybe he would have started to change the medical supply chain earlier. He was talking about it from day 1. You don't remember that.
Be honest in this answer now. Your integrity depends on the answer?
Trump had credible information from experts that showed the inevitability of where we are now back in January, but he chose to lie to shield the stock market from losses instead of preparing for the onslaught we have now.
My integrity doesn't depend on one answer to any question. It depends on me using honest and fair data to make my decisions, and my willingness to admit it when I'm shown to be wrong.
He worried about our med supply chain from day 1. Would he have been better off addressing this without Mueller and this Russian hoax...STILL on his ass 5 yrs later?
We have to wonder huh??
Hmmmm . . . . wrong. I just pointed out that profit isn't required by an enterprise under capitalism.Capitalism holds solutions to all our problems is a given for right wingers.

Distilleries Take Action To Help Americans In COVID-19 Crisis; Trump Cheers
Distilleries in Pennsylvania, Vermont and North Carolina are temporarily converting their operations to produce a much-needed product amid the plague of panic-buying: hand sanitizer.
In a report promoted by President Trump on Thursday, NBC News tells the story of multiple local distillery owners responding to the exploding demand for hand sanitizer, which has largely disappeared from shelves and is one of the more price-gouged items during the crisis.
“America’s Private Sector is stepping up to help us be STRONG!” Trump tweeted Thursday in reference to NBC’s report. “Many of the Nation’s distillers, large and small, are producing and donating hand sanitizer to help fight [COVID-19]. THANK YOU!”
How is profit involved in the transaction. Profit is the required goal of any capitalist endeavor. What we have here is a normally capitalist company engaging in a purely socialist endeavor. Good for them.

Someone qualified to be president doesn't ignore his job to cover his ass. It's part of that walking and chewing bubble gum thing.

'Capitalism' intends nothing other than to deliver a return on financial investment.'Capitalism' doesn't provide solutions,
You mean besides the "solution" for lifting hundreds of millions of people out of abject poverty and turning the world from one of scarcity into one of abundance over the last century, right?

People who use capitalism often act in human ways and do things beneficial to others.This is human, and proper.
'Capitalism' never set out to change things for poor people.

Exactly, a soviet monopoly will always be inefficient at best and genocidal on average.
Look at CDC. A tiny Germany company was making test kits the first week of January. CDC is only doing it now long after virus has spread widely.
Well, he has ideology and political party mixed up. He first blames the democrats so when shown statistics of Republicans governing/leading for the majority of the last 50 years...he can’t counter it.
Actually governments are split in America between Republicans and Democrats with the Democrats prevailing by a large margin given the huge growth in govt we have seen. 1+1=2
This is why Democrats now have the confidence to lead with the Green New Deal Second Great Depression and Communist Revolution.
Meanwhile back in reality, since 1970:
6 Nixon
8 Reagan
4 Bush
8 Bush
3 Blob
29 of the last 50 years have had Repubs in the Oval.
If this was a socialist country we would be deciding, like Italy, who gets treated and who will be left to die.Socialism, not free-market capitalism, will do most to help save lives and the economy during the coronavirus pandemic.
Donald Trump is running for reelection on an anti-socialist message. But the COVID-19 outbreak demonstrates the emptiness of ideological labels.
In Trump’s case, he may try to have it both ways: using socialism as a convenient campaign slogan, while battling the coronavirus with extraordinary measures comparable to what other modern presidents have done to beat back a crisis. Critics have panned his methods so far. As infections spread, he’s kept up his golf outings and fundraising schedule, while downplaying a virus that could have reached his outstretched hand: At CPAC, he greeted Matt Schlapp, the chairman of the American Conservative Union, who was in contact with the infected participant.
Trumpworld would like the 2020 general election to be a referendum on socialism; the Democrats want it to be a referendum on Trump. “We will have it out,” Kudlow said at CPAC. “President Trump is more than prepared to show the world why what he called … ‘the American model of free enterprise’ will whip socialism every time.”
Trump, though, is no doctrinaire economic conservative. His political brand is rooted in personality and celebrity, and he’s bent on capturing a second term. If he decides that the quickest path to quashing the coronavirus is activist, interventionist government, free-market doctrine is unlikely to get in his way. If there’s some dissonance in his reelection message and his practices, he’ll live with it.

Trump says he would consider government equity stakes in companies seeking bailouts
President Donald Trump said Thursday he would consider having the federal government take equity stakes in companies accepting federal aid in a bailout geared toward blunting the economic impact from the widening coronavirus outbreak.
When asked by a reporter whether he supports the government taking an equity stake in certain companies, he responded: “I do. I really do.”
<snip>
An equity stake is unlikely to be the companies’ preferred form of relief. The move is often dilutive to shareholders and gives the government greater ability to oversee a company.
We're turning into Venezuela! All hail Dear Leader, our wartime president!

Wow!!, I never thought I'd live to see the day. It's a Republican that makes a suggestion that's a first step to bringing the means of production under state control.
There you go right wingers. First step to socialism, in its correctly defined form.
Sounds more like Fascism.
