I feel sorry for those Trump supporters that reality has invaded C-D forums. This place used to be such a nicer echo chamber for their version of reality.

Now that the wolf is at the door, the chamber is empty. It was so predictable.
One might call it “ currency manipulation”.

That whole "coronavirus is a hoax" thing is going to look increasingly stupid as the death toll climbs - so have at it all you RWNJs

Ironically, the demographic most likely to suffer the consequences are those who spread this misinformation.

She is projecting her political fears as the political wishes of the left. Since it's what she fears, politically, she projects that the political opposition must relish. Some people have trouble thinking out the box of left right politics.

Many of them are scared, because they don't know how things going to eventually playout. They worry about the impact of this crisis on the election. They all talk tough, but don't be fooled, they are scared and it shows. They are blaming everything on the Dems or the media, and attitudes are nastier now.

Classic pump-and-dump, only Covfefe-19 triggered an untimely dump. No surprise that the Saudis and Russians are grabbing the opportunity to put the boot in.

I can't imagine being that much of a partisan hack.
What is wrong is the mixed messaging from the Administration.

We got Trump saying “ anybody who needs a test, gets a test” while Pence says” not enough tests to go around”.

We got Trump saying he should have been a doctor, implying once again, he knows more than the experts.

He spent the weekend golfing at Mar-a-Lago while his Admin struggled with response.

We got Trump this morning tweeting how the seasonal flu is worse while the CDC is trying to figure out how to quarantine thousands of cruise ship passengers who are not sick, for 14 days.

We got Trump tweeting about how the decline in oil prices is good while ignoring the impact of US oil production.
