Trump mocks Biden for trusting scientists while Biden slams Trump's Covid-19 lies

President Donald Trump mocked Joe Biden on Sunday for trusting scientists about Covid-19 shortly after Biden lambasted the president for continuing to "lie" about the state of the pandemic.

Speaking at a rally in Carson City, Nevada, Trump imitated the former vice president, saying he would "listen to the scientists."

"If I listened totally to the scientists, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression," Trump said. "We're like a rocket ship."

He then attacked the Democratic governors of several states who have put in place measures to stop a likely second wave of Covid-19.

"Get the places open, let's go," he said.

A spokesman for Biden's campaign, Andrew Bates, swiftly responded to Trump in a tweet.

"This is tellingly out of touch and the polar opposite of reality," Bates said. "Trump crashed the strong economy he inherited from the Obama-Biden Administration by lying about and attacking the science, and layoffs are rising. Meanwhile, Joe Biden would create millions more jobs than Trump."

At a campaign stop earlier Sunday in Durham, North Carolina, Biden highlighted rising Covid-19 case counts, which reached their highest single-day total since late July on Friday, before pointing to recent remarks Trump has made downplaying the virus.

"Yet, the other night, Trump said in one of his rallies, 'we've turned the corner,'" Biden said. "As my grandfather would say, this guy's gone around the bend if he thinks we've turned the corner. Turn the corner? Things are getting worse. He continues to lie to us about the circumstances."

Referring to Trump's remarks telling the journalist Bob Woodward that he had downplayed the severity of the virus so people would not panic, Biden said, "The American people do not panic — Trump panicked."

The drive-in rally featured attendees chanting and honking from their cars. A rallygoer shouted: "Send him home, Joe."

Trump has in recent days said repeatedly that the country is "rounding the corner" when it comes to the pandemic.

"We are rounding the corner and we have — unbelievable," Trump said Saturday at a rally in Janesville, Wisconsin. "The vaccines are unbelievable. Except for a little politics. We have unbelievable vaccines coming out real soon. And the therapeutics are unbelievable."

The president has talked up the available therapeutics for Covid-19 after he contracted the virus and was treated this month with an antibody cocktail, remdesivir, and a heavy steroid typically associated with more severe cases.

Covid-19 case numbers are on the rise nationwide, with hospitalizations beginning to tick up, as well. Deaths have trailed off since early August, but they tend to be a lagging indicator of a pandemic's severity.

So far, more than 220,000 people in the U.S. have died of Covid-19, according to an NBC News tracker.

The Famous Last Words Of Herman Cain

 

Herman Cain was an asshole and I'm glad he's dead. I am especially glad that that Trump's hoax virus killed him but more that that, I'm thrilled that the MAGAts are still believing Trump and dropping like flies. Flies are the final stage of the MAGAt.

There is no point in trying to reason with Trump's supporters. I would argue that convincing them that they are 100% right to believe Trump's lies and spread those lies as well as the coronavirus is moral and prudent, The more Trump lies, the more MAGAts will die. They aren't worth the effort. Don't waste your breath.

Traitorous Trump Refuses to Denounce Q-Anon

 

President Donald Trump refused to denounce supporters of the far-right conspiracy theory QAnon at his town hall event Thursday night, spiraling into a fit of outrage at the NBC host for even asking him about it. 

Trump, who has lent support to the dangerous and cultish movement throughout his presidency, said at Thursday’s event he knew “nothing about QAnon” when host Savannah Guthrie asked him if he would denounce the movement once and for all. 

The only definitive remark he made about backers of the far-right, convoluted theory was complimentary: “What I do hear about it is they are very strongly against pedophilia, and I agree with that,” adding they “fight it very hard.”

The core belief of those who follow the mysterious QAnon is that high-ranking Democrats, media figures and entertainment personalities are secretly members of a satanic pedophile ring that Trump is covertly working to stop. The movement has had some dangerous and violent consequences beyond the spread of its misinformation, including a shooting at a Washington pizza parlor.

In August, Trump said of QAnon followers that he’d “heard these are people that love our country” and said he appreciated that they “like me very much.”

Guthrie didn’t let Trump’s response slide. “You do know” about QAnon, she said as the president repeated he didn’t and tried to pivot the conversation to anti-fascist activists known collectively as “antifa.” 

Trump grew angry with Guthrie when she wouldn’t move on.

“Let’s waste the whole show,” he said. “You started off with white supremacy; I denounced it. You started off with something else. Let’s go. Keep asking me these questions.”

At one point when he and Guthrie were competing to speak, Trump quipped at her, “So cute.”

Biden’s campaign blasted the president shortly after the town hall ended.

“In a false, alternate reality of his own making, President Trump was combative and lashed out at voters,” Biden’s deputy campaign manager, Kate Bedingfield, said in a press release. “He refused to denounce QAnon. He defended an unhinged conspiracy theory about the brave American soldiers who took out Osama Bin Laden. He lied about the effectiveness of masks.”
