Vindictive Trump Struggles to Speak During Presser and Can’t Pronounce ‘Coronavirus’

By

Donald Trump is once again holding another daily coronavirus press briefing, despite there being no real new news about the virus.

Trump opened today’s coronavirus task force briefing by noting his administration’s efforts to work with state governments in New York, Texas and Louisiana to get temporary hospitals built and staffed, saying: “It’s just an incredible situation. There’s never been anything like this.”

He continues: “This will be probably the toughest week, between this week and next week, and there will be a lot of death, unfortunately. But a lot less death than if this wasn’t done, but there will be death. We’re looking for an obvious focus and the hardest-hit regions. Some of them are obvious and some are not so obvious. They spring up, they hit you like you got hit by a club. An area that wasn’t at all bothered – you look at what’s going on in New Jersey, the governor is doing an excellent job by the way – but how that sprang up. Every decision we’re making is made to save lives. It’s really our sole consideration. We want to save lives. We want as few lives lost as possible.

The president then immediately pivots toward the media: “It’s therefore critical that certain media outlets stop spreading false rumors and creating fear and even panic with the public,” he says. “It’s just incredible. I could name them but it’s the same ones. Always the same ones. I guess they looking for ratings. I don’t know what they’re looking for. So bad for our country. The people understand it. Look at the levels and approval ratings, they’re the lowest they’ve ever been for media. So bad for our country, so bad for the world. Put it together for a little while. Get this over with and then go back to your fake news.”

Trump then said the Spanish Flu was in 1917 when it was 1918. Details matter.

This is truly unreal. This makes no sense:

Here is Trump barely able to read basic words:

Look, Trump can’t even pronounce coronavirus:

God help us:
