If he’s serious about it, not talking anymore would probably be the best call Trump’s made since this thing started.

Putin watching his poll numbers drop as COVID grows in Russia. Russian people are much less tolerant towards self quarantine and are already upset over lack of jobs.
Putin it seems faced a similar problem as the US lack of a rapid response early on. Putin now going draconian with quarantine and arresting protesters and people refusing to follow orders. Putin popularity is shrinking due to Russians anger.
"
CNN)World leaders have been working from home during the coronavirus pandemic, and Vladimir Putin is no exception: On Monday, the Russian President held a videoconference from his official residence outside Moscow with some of the officials leading the government's efforts to tackle the disease.
It was an unusually somber meeting. Less than a month ago, Putin had radiated confidence about his government's response to a growing global crisis, reassuring his citizens that the situation was "under control" thanks to early intervention measures. A few weeks later, Putin played the role of international rescuer, dispatching a planeload of medical supplies to New York's John F. Kennedy Airport."
"How quickly things can change in the time of coronavirus. In his Monday videoconference, Putin took stock of a worsening situation."

Bravo.
This might have been posted earlier, I didn't check.
In New York unbelievably COVID infected people were being placed into nursing homes. Nursing homes are were the most vulnerable people reside, the elderly. About 95% of fatalities have been with those 70 and older. It's unreal. It is no wonder New York has been a hot spot for Wuhan virus deaths.
State lacked common sense in nursing homes coronavirus approach: Goodwin
https://nypost.com/2020/04/25/new-york-lacked-common-sense-in-nursing-homes-coronavirus-approach/
excerpt:
...Start with the knowledge Albany had for months — that the coronavirus was extra-lethal for the elderly. Study after study showed death rates climbed with age, especially among those with serious, pre-existing health issues. That describes the entire population in most nursing homes.
Then look at the now-infamous March 25 directive from the New York State Department of Health that orders those homes and rehabilitation centers to admit and readmit patients sick with the coronavirus. The devil comes in the first sentence of the fifth paragraph:
“No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.”
It reads like a legal warning against discrimination — because that’s what it is. The order effectively makes patients contaminated with a highly contagious disease a protected class, akin to the way bias is banned along racial and gender lines.
The concept is obscene. For the same reason that you don’t strike a match near gasoline, anyone carrying the virus should be banned from nursing homes, not forced on them.
Recall that the phrase “out of an abundance of caution” was used to justify shutdowns of schools, churches and commerce and impose social distancing guidelines everywhere. Nursing homes needed even more extreme protections, which is why all visitors, including family, were banned, lest they accidentally infect loved ones and start a daisy chain of death.
Yet when it came to those same facilities, members of Gov. Cuomo’s team didn’t exhibit a whit of caution or common sense. The results were predictably catastrophic.....

Forcing nursing homes to take coronavirus patients is just insane — and evil

He wasnn't joking about the disinfectant, he was going off letters he was sent earlier in the week by a guy called Mark Grenon (who was selling a 'cure' for COVID19, I say 'was' because the FDA actually banned him from selling it before Trump's press conference). Trump was just dumb enough to believe it and even more dumb for mentioning it live in his press conference.

I guess Republicans are worried about losing senior citizen vote. Added a historic 7 percent increase in Social security payments.

What made Trump make such insane comments about light and disinfectant was lead researcher Bill Byran for the military and Homeland Security found that COVID-19 is effected by UV light and disinfectant in such a way to greatly slow the spread. This is all that Trump needed to run with it.

New tweet from the White House brainiac that as usual raises a question or two.
What is a "Noble Prize?" <45>And when did they start awarding "Noble Prizes" to journalists, exactly? I may be wrong here, but I thought they primarily got Pulitzers? <45>

Have you seen his office desk? He's got fake Akadummy Awards, fake Germmys, and a lot of Emmees.
The Noble Prize? You know, made by Chuck Noble, the Merchant of Derth?

Yeah but Joe Biden stuttered last week. Report that! But the liberal media won’t.
