Yeah, Trump did call military personnel "suckers" and "losers"

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

They died because Andrew Cuomo would rather put infected elderly patients back in nursing homes than use the hospital ship and field hospital that Trump provided to New York City! That's how bad TDS is with the left!

They died because of the terrible Trump vax.

LOL liar

I don't think your lying, just unaware.

Did you take the TRUMP Vaccine?

did you?

They died because of the terrible Trump vax.

The vaccines hadn't even been produced when Cuomo was putting contagious patients back into nursing homes, you clueless buffoon!

Do you TRY to be stupid?

 

[Man With A Plan]

The ship only had 400 beds, and weren't equipped to treat Covid Patients. By April 4th, NY was racking up 12,000 new Covid Cases a day.

No doctor in his right mind would send a patient there, which is why none of them did.

No doctor in his right mind would send a contagious patient back to a nursing home FULL of elderly people! Only an idiot like Andrew Cuomo would do that.

Yet their doctors did exactly that, because those nursing homes were the best option. They had caregivers that were familiar with their cases.

Doctors didn't make that call, you buffoon...that decision was made by Andrew Cuomo!

Any doctor could have overridden the care plan, but most agreed these folks would be better off at their assisted living facilities than a leaky old ship.

Where did you get the idea that any doctor could "overide" a regulation imposed by the Governor?

Being the primary care person, they could make a determination what the best course of treatment was.

If they though the nursing home was too dangerous, they wouldn't send them there.

It's a president's job to know about viruses, so in that both failed.

You know what I love about you progressives, Joey? You all love using any power you have to take away citizen's freedoms...all the while telling us all that you know best...but as soon as what you've done turns into a problem? IT'S ALWAYS SOMEBODY ELSE'S FAULT!!!

The problem was the malignant narcissist in the White House who called Covid a hoax because he was more concerned about the stock market than anyone's lives.

He thought he could deflect responsibility by doing a cheap Reality TV stunt.

Now, if you really want to have a discussion about the Stupid Boat, I'd be happy to point out all the places where you were wrong.

If you can actually come up with a valid reason why the hospital ship and the massive field hospital weren't used, Joey...I'd love to hear it! I have no idea what you're even babbling about when you start going on about the stock market and reality TV.

 

[Boo Radley]

Not really, and they weren't there when he said it.

It's Trump's word against Kelly's, and Kelly has more credibility, given all the other things Trump has done.

But he didn't say it.

 

[Couchpotato]

A 45-minute drive through Taliban-controlled territory.

So you'd have to secure the airbase, the city of Kabul, and the road connecting them with the whopping 2500 troops Trump left in the country.

here's the real problem. Once Trump signed Doha and effectively turned the country over to the Taliban, our position there became untenable.

Why? That wasn’t done with the evac happening FROM Kabul Airport why would it have to happen if the evac happens outside Kabul?

The vacant Comfort hospital ship is a symbol of our coronavirus failure | Ross Barkan

The hospital ship docked in New York City is a sad representation of the federal and local response to coronavirus: too little and far too late

www.theguardian.com

Strict rules are preventing people infected with the virus from coming on board. The navy is also refusing to treat a host of other conditions. Guidelines sent to hospitals included a list of 49 medical conditions that would exclude a patient from admittance to the ship.

Ambulances cannot take patients directly to the Comfort. First, they must deliver patients to a city hospital to be tested for the virus and then pick them up again for transport to the ship. Hospital leaders rightfully find the delays untenable.

In New York City, hospitals are besieged. Patients are dying in hallways. Refrigerated trucks are now makeshift morgues. Doctors and nurses are forced to reuse protective gear, some even donning trash bags. The city is running dangerously low on ventilators and even body bags.

The ship, sitting nearly empty, is almost a mockery of all the suffering taking place on land. If it won’t treat coronavirus patients, it will hardly treat anyone: since so few people are going outside, non-coronavirus injuries and illnesses have plummeted.
Trump, a deeply incompetent executive who denies science, could not ramp up testing to create any kind of accurate picture of which Americans were infected and needed to be quarantined. Federal guidelines for social distancing came too late. Medical supplies weren’t produced. Companies were not compelled, by law, to produce them.
