New spin surely coming from some right wing blog or talking head. Orders beamed down from the right wing mothership "go forth and spread spin to protect our great Orange leader".
On February 4, President Trump delivered his State of the Union Address, during which he addressed the threat to America from the coronavirus, asserting, “Protecting Americans’ health also means fighting infectious diseases. 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.”
So apparently Nancy Pelosi thought this was a lie.
Well, if you want to get technical, it turns out that Trump’s claim that “my administration will take all necessary steps to safeguard our citizens from this threat” was, in fact, a lie. So she wasn’t wrong.
All the left has to do is do a split screen with Trump assuring us this was going to magically disappear, down to zero, gone, poof! on one side, with footage of overflowing hospitals and refrigerated trucks carrying away the dead and the raw numbers of how many have so far died, many largely due to Trump ignoring it for two plus months.
Only the truly indoctrinated will think Pelosi tearing up a speech is somehow more important than all of the above.
And then another split screen of Pelosi and New York City officials telling people to not worry about the coronavirus and come on down to Chinatown, and especially don't miss the parade and the 10,000 people who will be congregating there. And Chuck Schumer dismissing the ban on travel from China as "an attack on immigrants." And the Decmoratic presidential candidate debate on February 25th where they didn't even mention coronavirus. And, and, and....
I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to vote for Trump again this November, but now I'm definitely going to. Because regardless of what you say about his handling of this, every leading Democrat seems to have been much worse. Do you have any evidence to suggest otherwise?

The daffy dyke is so weak couldn't even tear the speech without cutting little slits in the pages beforehand. The handshake snub had nothing to do with it. This was a premeditated plan.
All right, so let's go with that logic. Let me ask a couple of questions:
+ Was Trump's slight of her handshake premeditated?
+ If he gracefully shakes her hand, does she shred the speech?
As for prepping the paper beforehand, well that just speaks to intelligence. She didn't get to where she is by being clueless. Also, she's 80 years and probably not capable of feats of strength any more. Will you be when you reach 80? I'm betting probably not.
Politically I'm a moderate who has voted both ways.

You can run that clip, and yes, Trump did say these things. However, he was being berated by a hostile media looking to hang him on something and hoping he would stoke fear. He did the OPPOSITE. The record will show that Trump did act as early as late December to contain the virus. That is a fact. Anything Dems say or do, Trump can counter. Also, let's be honest here. Do you really want Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders running this country? Bernie is deranged with a heart problem,, and Biden's mental acuity has drastically decreased due to age and major brain surgery.

It was a lie. All necessary steps obviously not taken. CDC playbook thrown out instead.
Probably. I mean, he was still calling concerns from the left of the lack of response at the Federal level the next partisan hoax all the way into March and generally ho-humming it. 15 cases, soon to be zero, under control, nothing to worry about.
Late February, I remember. Feb. 4 for state of the union. Trump not taking it seriously till Dr. Fauci was able to put the charts in simple terms.
i take it Fauci didn't let trump have a sharpie ...
