Raskin: Trump on more than 20 different occasions defended the performance of the Chinese government in terms of COVID.. so if there is a problem with the Chinese government unleashing the virus.. you would have to pin that on your favorite President Donald Trump not Joe Biden

He also accused her of reading a book. She must be so offended!

1. The second point for those not watching the clip

Is that Deborah Birx, in her book, said that Trump’s recklessness caused hundreds of thousands of American lives.

2. Please send these to that crazy woman

From his 2020 State of the Union : "We are coordinating with the Chinese government and working closely together on the coronavirus outbreak in China. My administration will take all necessary steps to safeguard our citizens from this threat."

'It's going to disappear':
A timeline of Trump's claims that Covid-19 will vanish

https://edition.cnn.com/interactive/2020/10/politics/covid-disappearing-trump-comment-tracker/

In his first speech after his hospitalization for Covid-19, President Donald Trump stood on a White House balcony on October 10 and made a grand declaration about the coronavirus: “It’s going to disappear. It is disappearing.”

Trump has stuck to the refrain no matter what has been happening with the pandemic. Since February, the President has declared at least 38 times that Covid-19 is either going to disappear or is currently disappearing.

His proclamations have been wildly inaccurate. When Trump first started making the claim in February, it was about the time the US had just suffered its very first known Covid-19 death. More than 220,000 deaths later, Trump continues to falsely claim that the virus will somehow just go away — even as the US experiences yet another surge in cases and hospitalizations.

totally under control. It's one person coming in from China. We have it under control. It's going to be just fine."

Reporter Q: Do you trust that we're going to know everything we need to know from China?

"China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!"

[Justice matters.]

13. Ongoing Deaths by 100K of population Canada vs United States (The New York Times).

Canada (Universal Healthcare System) has 202 less COVID deaths/100,000 people than the US...

16. Canada provides decent health care for its

Citizens and was not led by a buffoon boasting about his uncle’s qualifications

[Justice matters.]

18. Yep. Hair furhair should be charged of 202 more deaths per 100K citizens than Canada has.

Hope that link can be used in the campaign if criminal hair furhair is the Fascists nominee.

20. DUzy for Hair furhair😀😀😀

[Justice matters.]

22. I would love Jimmy Kimmel to use it.

Epic intro yesterday.

[malaise]

23. That is soooooo good

Needs its own thread
Thabks😀

[SWBTATTReg]

17. I still think tRUMP should be charged w/ murder when they had an advance notice that COVID

was coming, and tRUMP failed to act in time, even went so far to not allow a ship w/ American passengers to dock, being that perhaps some passengers were infected. What was he going to do, let them all rot out there? These are American passengers.

I got to pinch myself sometimes being that djt is an American too, eh? Makes one wonder.

[Justice matters.]

19. Agreed. And his corrupt SIL an accomplice. n/t

[republianmushroom]

3. like it

[dchill]

5. Not sure I'd go so far as to say he "educated" her...

That's likely not feasible at this juncture.

[Boomerproud]

6. I was just going to type the same response.

Boebert and educate do not belong in the same sentence, much less the same thought

[dchill]

7. Yes. She's immune to positive modification.

[lees1975]

10. The name "Boebert" and the term "Educate" is an oxymoron

and she's just a moron.

[Redleg]

11. I doubt Boebert was educated by this...

... she chooses to believe what she will and no amount of logic will sway her.

[The Jungle 1]

12. She walks out with her tight jeans and big tits tucked in a sweater and..

the radical right stops thinking.

“Boebert said she received her GED — a high school equivalency diploma — after completing a four-course review.” Not her 4th try to pass but she was given a GED after finishing a review course and not testing.
Dumb as a bag of rocks. She got her GED days before her election

[SouthernDem4ever]

15. Her voters are just as dumb

She must be one of the few in her district to get as far as a GED. It must be really difficult on them since Mush Lumbaugh isn't on the radio every day telling them how smart they are.
