Quote
President Donald Trump on Tuesday acknowledged downplaying the coronavirus threat early on.

"I knew everything. I knew it could be horrible, I knew it could be maybe good," Trump said. "I don't want to be a negative person."

Trump said he wanted to be a "cheerleader" for the US and give people "hope."

But public-health experts have slammed Trump's handling of what is now a pandemic, saying his efforts to diminish the potential impact robbed the US of vital time needed to prepare.

Sure, but it was never going to happen any more than 15 was going to zero.

It was unwise to have even suggested it, just as his declaration that he won't be wearing a mask is stupid.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Some good news from a Phase 1 clinical trial (though I cannot find it on the formal list):

Targeted Oncology is the journal, but it is discussed in a few others.

He know his life is worthless. He’s hoping somehow it will soon end.

My fellow Americans, you are all worth far more to this country than donald trump. Please stay home if you can and if you must go out (and I know you are far too smart to go golfing this weekend) wear a mask.

Speaking of stupid, I give you Elon Musk, certified genius and complete numbskull:

https://news.yahoo.com/ventilators-donated-elon-musk-cant-150000445.html

The so-called ventilators that Musk donated can't be used for COVID-19 patients and may do more harm than good. He bought and donated a bunch of 5 year old BiPap machines.
