Trump takes credit for defeating COVID-19: 'Everyone is calling to thank me'

[left-of-center2012]

Donald Trump on Thursday celebrated the end of 2020 with an upbeat video message where he used xenophobic language to describe the novel coronavirus and claimed that he is receiving calls from around the globe thanking him for his response to the pandemic.

Trump's comments came one day after the United States set a new record for COVID-19 deaths. The surge in death comes against the backdrop of the Trump administration failing to meet their own goals for vaccinations.

"Nearly 2.8 million people in the U.S. have received 1st dose of #covid19 vaccine.
20 million vaccinations were promised until recently. Before that, 100 million," Dr. Leana Wen noted on Thursday. Nevertheless, Trump declared victory. "They said it would take a medical miracle and that's exactly what it is," Trump argued.

"Years from now they'll be talking about it, they'll be talking about this great, great thing we did with the vaccines," he predicted. "We've already begun a nationwide vaccination program and we're sending the vaccine all over the world," Trump said, despite the shortages of the vaccine in America.

"The world will benefit, we'll benefit,
and everybody is calling to thank me," he claimed.

3. LOL. Surely, he made that up after channel surfing and seeing the

miserable, atrocious assessment of his handling of the virus catastrophe.

God, that picture. It looks like the last glassy-eyed photograph of Hemingway (in the Jeffrey Meyers biography), shortly before he blew his brains out.

4. That's a man who has gone completely bonkers. Look at that face. nt

5. Big, tough guys with tears in their eyes calling "Sir...."

[ProfessorGAC]

6. Definition Of "Everyone"

Ivanka, Uday, Qusay & their SOs, Hannity, Carlson, Dobbs, Graham, Wood, & Powell.
So, "everyone" is 11 sycophantic morons.

[Vinca]

7. Offhand we could name hundreds of thousands of people not calling or thanking . . . or breathing.

Actually Spreading the Deadly VIRUS.. so the Fucker comes along when others have led in Fighting the Pandemic to take the credit.. like the little Bloated Coward he is.

Why do so many in his Cult still think it's a "hoax"? Is their stupid god taking credit for curing a HOAX?!

13. Sometimes when I see his hideous face, I think about when I was a kid, and

I wish he was in one of my aunt Skip's stalls while she was milking. trump standing just behind and to the left; getting loud, hand gestures and annoying the cow, then getting kicked right in his butt crack neck, or smirking sphincter mouth.

If anyone deserves a cow kick to the neck or mouth, it's trump. Might knock some sense into him.

14. I don't believe this

Every time someone thanks Trump it’s a tough guy from central casting with a tear in his eye and it starts with “Sir, how can we thank you for being so wonderful.”

15. More LIES - Trump contradicts CDC, pledging 100 million vaccines in 2020

https://www.rollcall.com/2020/09/18/trump-contradicts-cdc-pledging-100-million-vaccines-in-2020/

President Donald Trump touted vaccine distribution plans in a Friday news conference and pledged 100 million vaccine doses by the year’s end, a promise that contradicts the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s most optimistic projections.

“We will have manufactured at least 100 million vaccine doses before the end of the year, and likely much more than that,” Trump said. “We expect to have enough vaccines for every American by April.”

The promise of 100 million vaccine doses this year represents the president’s latest contradiction of his own public health agency, and follows a week in which Trump repeatedly challenged CDC Director Robert Redfield about the importance of masks and when most Americans can expect a vaccine.

“We essentially have it,” the president said of a vaccine Friday. “We’ll be announcing it fairly soon.”

But the testing protocols for the two vaccines furthest along in clinical trials, manufactured by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech, which were released Thursday, show that analysis of the data will likely stretch into December 2020 and early 2021.


Internal CDC documents posted by The New York Times show that under the most optimistic scenario, if the two vaccines both prove to be safe and effective on an accelerated timeline, 35 million to 45 million doses could be available by late December. If just one of the vaccines is seen as safe and effective, only 20 million to 30 million doses will be available and if just the other vaccine is authorized, 15 million doses will be available, according to the documents. The internal documents were independently confirmed by CQ Roll Call as authentic.

That fucker is a pathological LIAR Today is the last day of 2020.

17. Ummm..how does his inbred cult square...

....the man of the miracle vaccine with the bellowing pig who told the Covid was a hoax??? If it ain't real, why do you need a vaccine??? And why did all those people die of a hoax???

[smirkymonkey]

18. I am so sick of his lies and bullshit!

And that is exactly what this is. There is not one word of truth in what he says. Nobody is thanking him because he has done NOTHING and in fact has fucked up efforts to get this pandemic under control once again. He only makes things worse, never better.

I so can't wait until he is gone. I will be even happier when he is behind bars and what will make me happiest of all is when he is six-feet under and we never have to see or hear from him again.

[StarfishSaver]

19. Who are all of these people who keep walking up to him and calling him to tell him good things

Since when can people just walk up to the president and talk to him?

[Talitha]

20. Yep, the Bullshitter-In-Chief is at it again...

And he looks like hell, too.
