cwd deer, I think she's incompetent and I think she's not thinking about the country, Trump said of Pelosi. But we have to work together, Trump continued. Instead, she wants to do the same thing with cryin' Chuck Schumer. He goes out and he says the president only asked for $2.5 billion, he should have $8.5 billion. This is the first time I've ever been told that we should take more. Usually, it's we have to take less. Seemingly in response to Trump's Wednesday comments, Pelosi and Schumer released a joint statement on Congress' plans for coronavirus funding Thursday morning which appeared to admonish the president without naming him.
cwd deer - The United States government must do more to address the spread of the deadly coronavirus in a smart, strategic, and serious way and we stand ready to work in a bipartisan fashion in Congress and with the administration to achieve this necessary goal, the statement read. Lives are at stake—this is not the time for name-calling or playing politics. Pelosi and Schumer then went on to lay out a handful of demands for any congressional appropriations to fight coronavirus. Those demands included that the funding be new and not stolen from other accounts, safeguards against the president potentially transferring the money to use on something else, that vaccines be affordable, that interest-free loans be available to small businesses and provisions be available to reimburse state and local governments that help the federal government combat the disease.
cwd deer, There was also some palace intrigue as Trump named Vice President Pence to lead the coronavirus response within the U.S. government over Azar, after Azar had said the same day that he was in charge of the response. But the move to put Pence in charge of protecting Americans from the outbreak drew scorn from the left, including from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., who panned Pence's handling of HIV while he was the governor of Indiana. JETBLUE WAIVING CANCELLATION, CHANGE FEES FOR ALL FLIGHTS AMID CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK
cwd deer - As governor, Pence’s science denial contributed to one of the worst HIV outbreaks in Indiana’s history, she tweeted. He is not a medical doctor. He is not a health expert. He is not qualified nor positioned in any way to protect our public health. The official Twitter account for the liberal TBS comedy show Full Frontal with Samantha Bee poked fun at the Pence move. Pence’s plan is 'just don’t ever be alone in a room with the coronavirus,' it posted, referencing the religious conservative's personal rule that he will not spend time alone with a woman who is not his wife.
cwd deer - Coronavirus politics has also made its way to the campaign trail, with presidential candidates laying out how they would respond to the outbreak. They used the chance to hammer Trump. Like so much else, the Trump administration’s bungled response to the coronavirus outbreak is a mess, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., tweeted. As president, I will lead a competent administration prepared to combat outbreaks—because our public health, economy, and national security depend on it.
