Nancy Pelosi, The Most Shameful, Disgusting Politician In Modern History

[ThunderKiss1965]

"

That is pretty much what Lindsay Graham called her after Nancy accused Trump of causing the deaths to Americans by "fiddling around" after herself holding up the relief bill for days trying to stuff it full of unrelated, costly pork.

The second bill wasn't about prevention, it was about economic relief. The first bill, which Pelosi went along with much too easily, had all the aid to hospitals and first responders. This one was about how we were going to mitigate the economic damage Trump's Plague is causing.

"Trump's Plague" ? Another geographically retarded moron.

Just a month ago, she was trying to coax people down to Chinatown. Wonder how many people will die because of her actions ?

The virus originated in China. Not Chinatown. Those are different places.

And that i why it is called the China Virus and not the China town Virus

So what does Pelosi talking to people going down to Chinatown have to do with anything?

What part of "social distancing" was confusing to you? Or "hypocrisy", for that matter? That shriveled twat wants to gas away about how Trump is responsible for deaths because he didn't take this seriously soon enough, and at the exact same time, SHE was encouraging people to gather in huge, packed crowds and blowing off the notion of spreading the infection? And now YOU, her faithful lapdog, want to excoriate Trump but act all bewildered at the idea of doing the same to her?

I'm not discounting the possibility that you really are that fucking stupid, but somehow, I think you're actually just being dishonest in this case.

Pelosi visited Chinatown in late Feb, a point at which there were a dozen cases in the US and a few dozen cases that had been repatriated.

It was a point in time when the CDC was not recommending social distancing. It was a point in time during which testing for COVID was minimal. It was a point in time during which Trump’s administration claimed that the county was pretty well air tight because of his travel restrictions which were obviously inadequate.

Furhtermore, you can’t escape the fact that the others poster leveled this criticism due to the fact that Chinatown was involved, which has an obvious racial implication.

What you failed to do was discuss the issue with any specificity (what does Pelosi fault Trump for doing specifically) and instead chose to attack me personally.

1. We were talking about social distancing as early as late January and Early Feburary and if you lie and say we were not then click the links I provided because the CDC was issuing warnings already and guidelines back then!

2. My mentioning of New York Chinatown had to do with an idiot name Bill de Bozo of New York that is their Mayor and how he was trying to tell the people of New York it was safe to go to Chinatown during Chinese New Year when people from China were coming in as of late January and possible Carrier of the Coronavirus 19 which I gladly call Kung Flu Pandemic seeing you want to call it Trump plague!

It was de Bozo as of late January to early February telling the residents of his city to Wash their hands, SOCIAL DISTANCING, get a flu shot and if ill stay home!

3. Facts hurt you and your argument saying Trump did nothing to stop the spread when as of early January the CDC was offered to assist China Government in containing the virus and they ( China Government ) refused the assistance, so who is to blame?

You will scream " Trump " and yet facts say you are retarded as hell by doing so!

I believe several Democrats in NY, including the head of public health in NYC, were also encouraging people to go out, have fun, attend parades . . . and I distinctly recall the Democrat mayor of New Orleans encouraging people to attend Mardi Gras, and later blaming Trump for it not being shut down because he didn't "call her and tell her" to do so.

Sorry, but your only link was to Wikipedia and didn’t see anything talking about social distancing in the US. Can you be more specific?

Had he told the Mayors in Democrat Cities to shut down Chinese New Year or Mardi Gras the media would have attacked him and scream he was overreacting!

True. And it also wasn't Trump's job to shut down individual city events. That's what cities have mayors for.

 

[BlindBoo]

China Government arresting people that spoke up did not cause the spread around the World?

Correct. By the end of December it is likely that it had already spread outside China. China notified the WHO on Dec. 31

Nah, it is Trump Plague to those like you

Nah I like "Trumps Pandemic" in America, but only to those who insist on calling it the "Chinese Virus".

So if you believe Trump did nothing at all

I never said he did nothing. He encouraged people to ignore the so called liberal media, calling their reaction to the possibility of a new virus pandemic just another hoax that they were using to damage him politically.

I think it’s the job of the CDC to do so. A mayor could hardly be expected to understand what measures are necessary on their own. They simply lack the expertise and information to do so.

It's fair, based on the number of times Trump said it was under control.

Must people literally SPELL IT OUT for you like children that having something under control means dealing with it in the current context and not that you've literally STOPPED a threat that has eluded the best efforts of the rest of the world? And when the virus proved more persistent, stubborn or widespread than first known, then he redrew his lines as needed to deal with it having things under control then.

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard all day. Having something under control means it’s contained successfully. You wouldn’t say a fire is under control that just spread to three more houses.

Only because you WANT it to be dumb. At the time Trump first said that, things WERE contained and under control with a very few limited deaths as far as anyone knew. Only YOU would have wanted Trump to lock down the country, all borders and schools and jobs on January 1 saying: "Trust me, this thing is going to get bad!" Then you would have been ripping Trump for destroying the economy and panicking the nation!

And had he done that and we were at 2500 deaths now instead of 3000, you would claim it was all for naught and unnecessary and unsuccessful. Who do you shits think you are kidding?

Now we find out that most of the delays in testing and supplies is because Obama never repleniashed stocks from years ago. You even claimed Trump could never get that hospital ship to New York in time and here it is, days earlier than expected or promised. But we give you 300,000 masks and what do you shits do with them? They DISAPPEAR overnight.

He was claiming it was under control two weeks ago.

This is how under control it was at that time:

I think you're utterly clueless about who has the authority to do what. The CDC does not have the authority to shut down Mardi Gras or any other event. That authority belongs to the government with the legal jurisdiction; in the case of Mardi Gras, that would be the city government of New Orleans, headed by the mayor.

The CDC Has Less Power Than You Think, and Likes it That Way

Ebola isn’t likely to lead to a widespread quarantine but it certainly raises interesting constitutional questions

time.com

Also, this whole "a mayor can't understand on her own (fixed the grammar for you)" line is a straw man, because no one suggested she should do it on her own. The CDC's primary purpose is advisory, to provide necessary public health information to those who need it, which includes city governments. And that's aside from the fact that New Orleans has a Public Health Department, whose primary job is advising the city government on public health concerns. Where were they? Did Mayor LaToya talk to her Director of Public Health, or whatever the title is? Did either of them contact the CDC? Are they both too damned dumb to do the simple math of "infectious disease + large gathering of people = maybe not a good idea", as you seem to suggest is not only the case, but a perfectly acceptable state of being?

You’re right. I should have been more precise. The mayor would have the authority but they had no advice or information that would lead them to make that call.

The CDC would be best in position to know if that were necessary but made no such determination. Recommendations to avoid gatherings didn’t come out for about 2 weeks.

The mayor of New Orleans would not have sufficient information at that time (given the only known cases were identified in travelers from China) and if I’m remembering correctly, zero of those cases were in Louisiana.

 

[Papageorgio]

Racism? WTF are you talking about?

The part where you guys tried to blame Asians for spreading this virus.

Where did the virus originate? Ever hear of the Spanish flu? Ever hear of German measles? Idiot.

In the late 50's many people contracted the Asian flu, guess where it start from, Asia, strange.

Furhtermore, you can’t escape the fact that the others poster leveled this criticism due to the fact that Chinatown was involved, which has an obvious racial implication.

What you failed to do was discuss the issue with any specificity (what does Pelosi fault Trump for doing specifically) and instead chose to attack me personally.

1. We were talking about social distancing as early as late January and Early Feburary and if you lie and say we were not then click the links I provided because the CDC was issuing warnings already and guidelines back then!

2. My mentioning of New York Chinatown had to do with an idiot name Bill de Bozo of New York that is their Mayor and how he was trying to tell the people of New York it was safe to go to Chinatown during Chinese New Year when people from China were coming in as of late January and possible Carrier of the Coronavirus 19 which I gladly call Kung Flu Pandemic seeing you want to call it Trump plague!

It was de Bozo as of late January to early February telling the residents of his city to Wash their hands, SOCIAL DISTANCING, get a flu shot and if ill stay home!

3. Facts hurt you and your argument saying Trump did nothing to stop the spread when as of early January the CDC was offered to assist China Government in containing the virus and they ( China Government ) refused the assistance, so who is to blame?

You will scream " Trump " and yet facts say you are retarded as hell by doing so!

I believe several Democrats in NY, including the head of public health in NYC, were also encouraging people to go out, have fun, attend parades . . . and I distinctly recall the Democrat mayor of New Orleans encouraging people to attend Mardi Gras, and later blaming Trump for it not being shut down because he didn't "call her and tell her" to do so.

Had he told the Mayors in Democrat Cities to shut down Chinese New Year or Mardi Gras the media would have attacked him and scream he was overreacting!

True. And it also wasn't Trump's job to shut down individual city events. That's what cities have mayors for.

I think it’s the job of the CDC to do so. A mayor could hardly be expected to understand what measures are necessary on their own. They simply lack the expertise and information to do so.

I think you're utterly clueless about who has the authority to do what. The CDC does not have the authority to shut down Mardi Gras or any other event. That authority belongs to the government with the legal jurisdiction; in the case of Mardi Gras, that would be the city government of New Orleans, headed by the mayor.

The CDC Has Less Power Than You Think, and Likes it That Way

Ebola isn’t likely to lead to a widespread quarantine but it certainly raises interesting constitutional questions

Also, this whole "a mayor can't understand on her own (fixed the grammar for you)" line is a straw man, because no one suggested she should do it on her own. The CDC's primary purpose is advisory, to provide necessary public health information to those who need it, which includes city governments. And that's aside from the fact that New Orleans has a Public Health Department, whose primary job is advising the city government on public health concerns. Where were they? Did Mayor LaToya talk to her Director of Public Health, or whatever the title is? Did either of them contact the CDC? Are they both too damned dumb to do the simple math of "infectious disease + large gathering of people = maybe not a good idea", as you seem to suggest is not only the case, but a perfectly acceptable state of being?

You’re right. I should have been more precise. The mayor would have the authority but they had no advice or information that would lead them to make that call.

The CDC would be best in position to know if that were necessary but made no such determination. Recommendations to avoid gatherings didn’t come out for about 2 weeks.

The mayor of New Orleans would not have sufficient information at that time (given the only known cases were identified in travelers from China) and if I’m remembering correctly, zero of those cases were in Louisiana.

The mayor didn't have the advice or information to make that call? Was she hiding under a rock with no TV, Internet access, or telephone service? If that's the case, could it be that MAYBE she's incompetent to hold that office?

Just for the record, Mardi Gras was the last week of February. Are you actually suggesting that it's reasonable to assume the fucking mayor of fucking New Orleans was so out-of-touch with what's going on in the world that she couldn't be expected to know there was a pandemic going on, and that she MIGHT want to consult with medical experts of some sort about thousands of people flooding into her state and congregating?

Just a month ago, she was trying to coax people down to Chinatown. Wonder how many people will die because of her actions ?

The virus originated in China. Not Chinatown. Those are different places.

And that i why it is called the China Virus and not the China town Virus

So what does Pelosi talking to people going down to Chinatown have to do with anything?

What part of "social distancing" was confusing to you? Or "hypocrisy", for that matter? That shriveled twat wants to gas away about how Trump is responsible for deaths because he didn't take this seriously soon enough, and at the exact same time, SHE was encouraging people to gather in huge, packed crowds and blowing off the notion of spreading the infection? And now YOU, her faithful lapdog, want to excoriate Trump but act all bewildered at the idea of doing the same to her?

I'm not discounting the possibility that you really are that fucking stupid, but somehow, I think you're actually just being dishonest in this case.

Pelosi visited Chinatown in late Feb, a point at which there were a dozen cases in the US and a few dozen cases that had been repatriated.

It was a point in time when the CDC was not recommending social distancing. It was a point in time during which testing for COVID was minimal.

By the time of Mardi Gras cases in Washington State, New York City and California was reported and social distancing was already recommended, so are you claiming the Mayor of New Orleans did not know about any of this and ignored CDC recommendations?

Mardi Gras was two weeks before it was determined to be a pandemic.

Coronavirus: COVID-19 Is Now Officially A Pandemic, WHO Says

It's the first time the WHO has called an outbreak a pandemic since the H1N1 "swine flu" in 2009.

So no, I don’t consider the fucking mayor of fucking New Orleans to be expected to know there was a fucking pandemic going on because at that time it wasn’t a fucking pandemic.
