He's just taking the piss now
It's obvious he doesn't really understand the whole thing, he's not a doctor but it's pretty well documented that people are dying from resistant secondary bacterial infections. My point is that the constant ravings of loons against him is ridiculous, something that should be a laugh at a politician making a gaffe becomes a huge rant about him. Yeah, he doesn't understand viruses, but then the experts don't really understand them either.
Obviously had a briefing where someone was talking about antibiotic resistant infections, was half listening while he ate a couple quarterpounders and went with it at a press briefing.
^ No. Because tens of thousands of citizens don't die a slow, horrible death when Eddie or Buckley get it wrong. And Eddie and Bucks both honestly try to get it right.
Trump has now attacked his own Coronavirus expert, and is threatening to sack him.
Earlier today, Dr Anthony Fauci said, speaking very carefully so as not to upset his demented President, admitted the obvious - that more lives could have been saved if the country had shut down earlier.
Now Trump wants to fire him. Donald, YOU CAN'T SACK A VIRUS you demented moron.

You must be from the extreme left to believe that Trump has anything to do with the Coronavirus spread in the US.
It’s obviously Obama’s fault because apart from being a muslim he introduced forms of public access to healthcare and if he hadn’t Donny wouldn’t have had anything to repeal.

Barry Eichengreen is always worth a read. I hope he's wrong, but with Captain Coronavirus unravelling before our very eyes, he's potentially being too optimistic.
The last thing people and business need at a time like this is a clueless ditherer without credibility and a sensible plan.
Nothing will ever be the same again. Nothing. Not the economy, not footy, not schooling or everyday life. Probably a good thing in some ways.
I took photos from the shore of Indented Head on Saturday night, and you can clearly see the Westgate bridge, the Melbourne Eye and crane rigging. I shot the pics at 105 mm, so not super zoom. No pollution haze at all. It’s 43klm across the bay. I might put on in the global warming thread!
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!
Big swings to the Democrats in Wisconsin turfed out a conservative judge who opposed remote voting arrangements. This is a worrying sign for Trump - Wisconsin turning its back, even before Aaron Rodgers expresses any view.
Current poll in Wisconsin is 48-47 Biden. So Biden +1. The polls leading in to the 2016 election had Clinton at +6.5.
Trump won.
Removing people from the electoral roll who've moved house is exactly what we do here. Not sure what the Guardian is getting at with their black neighbourhood rubbish, is it harder to register to vote when black or fix a discrepancy on your record or register on polling day?
*Edit* It was also an election held at the same time as the live Democrat primary. Republican turnout was down 50% on 2016, she won by 7% (at the moment).
Straight to the periphery - have a look at what happened to the conservative judge. He was generally thought to be safe but was actually trounced.
For the rest of it, all you need to know is that voting only in person is great for the Republican Party - a couple of days ago, Trump made statements publicly to the effect that if people were more able to vote remotely the Republicans couldn’t win. It is widely-accepted (indeed, embraced by the Republicans) that minorities are excluded by such devices. The stuff about “voter fraud” is just the usual self-serving conservative tripe to provide cover for a deliberate strategy of keeping the opposition away from the polls.
No one (and I do mean no one) could possibly justify forcing people to leave their homes to vote in the middle of this pandemic. People will die as a consequence of that cynical ploy. The trouble for the Republicans is that more than the usual number of people seem to have recognised that it was a cynical ploy.
Elsewhere, I read that about 30% of Americans believe that COVID-19 was created in a laboratory. That’s more than the proportion of the voter population that voted for Trump at the last election. Food for thought, there.
