The additional stimulus package negotiations will "start in earnest" on Monday, said Trump's Chief of Staff.

WTF has he been doing before this? Waiting for the unemployment package to end to ensure greater suffering?!

Golfing. ("exercising").

Republicans don’t negotiate. The take hostages and shoot themselves in the foot, hurting and often killing multitudes of bystanders especially the dupes who vote for them.

Take it to the last second because they know the Democrats will capitulate to save as many people as possible.

Republicans don’t give a fuck about anyone...

Government by imposter republican style is losing its shine.

Yup.
Republicans didn't give a really fuck early on when Bluish northeast was getting crushed, and fought relief packages back aimed for individuals in March. Dumbs fucks finally understood that if NYC catches cold... Dumbs fucks still wouldn't wear masks though. Penny-wise trillion dollar fucking short-sighted.

And they've been sitting on the House Heroes plan that seeks more relief. Now that the disease has hit the redder south and west and businesses there may be hard hit, they may re-discover non-Trumpian charitable instincts and their inner angels. But I still suspect Malevolent Mitch and his crew of corrupt cohorts will try to fuck urban Dems as best they can.

Hypocritical SOBs.

Another great week for Trump!

5 months into the virus and the US is hitting record high infections.
Increasing numbers in over 40 states.
Hard to believe.

“I don't know and I don't think he [Redfield] knows,” Trump said. I don't think anybody knows with this. This is a very tricky deal. Everybody thought this summer it would go away and it would come back in the fall. Well, when the summer came, they used to say the heat -- the heat was good for it and it really knocks it out, remember? And then it might come back in the fall. So they got that one wrong.”

I always like the Everybody argument to paper over your own wrongness.
It's always bs, but excuses your misguidedness.

Actually Trump's initial answer is most accurate about the heat/summer.  Nobody knew.  Though Trump was sure for a while that even warm April weather would be enough to end the virus. 

I'd read info from epidemiologists who had worked on MERS and noted that that coronavirus was spreading in 100 degree weather on the Arabian peninsula.  So MERS researchers didn't expect CV-19 to fade away in summer.

Reminds me of W Bush, and how they kept saying that everybody thought Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.  But those who read a little deeper knew the aluminum tubes weren't the right type, the Niger yellowcake was phony, etc.

But sure, if you're poorly informed you can believe fairy tales.

And it's always in vogue for him.

"Nobody knew that health care was this difficult."

"Nobody knew that peace in the Middle East would be so difficult."

Must be hard when "nobody knows..." xyz "better than I do!"

Long term care for COVID-19 survivors. Because 99% of those who get it are fine, except for those who aren't.

Besides, Dr. Fauci is a bit of an alarmist.

Trump interview with Wallace - true, genuine leader.

Of what?

"If Biden had to do an interview like this he'd be lying on the floor"

Heh.

Trump interview with Wallace - true, genuine leader.

If that is what you got from that interview, your ability to process what you are hearing is severely compromised, Kid.

The man could not accept facts when they were in front of him and could not admit when he was wrong. Somebody else here already noted "bring me the charter" and "bring me the death chart."

This was not a leader of anything but credulous fools.
