Just bad and terrible.

That’s not being a drama queen.

That’s the truth.

IS is being a drama queen - when you look at some other presidents have pardoned.

You need a refresher course in history.

Which war criminals did any other president pardon?

I will wait a long time for even one President other than trump pardoning war criminals.

Obama respected the Geneva convention.

Trump thumbs his nose at it.

0bama was determined to pardon war criminals. He seemed quite determined to release all of the war criminals in Guantanamo Bay and glorified an American deserter who he used as an excuse to release several Taliban war criminals from Guantanamo. Obama did not seem to respect too many of our laws or our constitution and also pardoned the treasonous Chelsea Manning.

So now the federal judges are a okay. Lol.

The court ruled that the conditions placed upon the grants were constitutional and did not interfere with states rights.

I respect All federal judges unlike trump and some on this forum who only likes a judges that agree with him.

not that this is Trumps fault, but we are headed to the very worst economy in the history of our country, even worse than the great depression. why would he appoint Pence to be the Corona Czar when there are qualified experts in the infectious disease business to run the biggest problem that we have ever encountered in this country and probably the world? this is totally baffling, because this could easily lead to Bernie Sanders or Biden, who are less qualified to lead than Trump.

Just like Katrina was not w’s fault. But he was definitely at fault for the response. This is the turning point for the trump admin. Fish or cut bait. Pence is a total lightweight for this.

If Trump constantly takes credit for the "greatest economy ever"(Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan rolling their eyes),then he will have to take the blame if things go bad.

I doubt we are heading for the worst economy ever.Unlike the 1930's we have more balance in our economy.The stock market's been on an eleven year high;this is the excuse it needs to have a healthy and overdue correction.

Concern, yes.Panic, no.

Trump has been in front of Corona - it is the dems who are using this as a political tool. They boo-hoo'd his travel restrictions early on, but CDC says they bought us valuable time.

Who you gonna listen to, the experts of Nancy the Idiot?

Far more people will die from democrat polices over the next 10 years than any virus.

We can live with Corona and get past it.

But Bernie, Biden, Lizzy.....not so much. THAT is the REAL emergency. You can't vaccinate for STUPID.

Considering our president and his supporters. That’s a given.

Ha ha.
Big talk considering all the successes he has stacked up next to the great big 0 on the dems side of the ledger, and the totally impossible costs they are trying to hide from.

You remind me of that kid who stood in front of the tank in China....right before the unexplained loss of TV coverage!

Trump is the boss and leader. He has been in front of shit. He should have closed down the whole country 3 weeks ago and isolate this country from the rest of the world. I wish I was wrong. Time will tell you how right I am on this. Then you can go blame all the Democrats if I am wrong. Highly doubtful though. Trump had the chance to be a hero he is going to turn.out to be a chump now

I would rather have the "qualified experts" be working on the issue instead of being further bogged down with managerial BS and press releases. I see nothing wrong with Pence giving the okay to request... reporting progress to Trump and speaking to the press.

You are talking all gloom and doom ... haven't you heard it is not as bad as the flu, or have you heard things most of us do not know?
