Trump Suggests States Need to Bribe Him With Praise to Get Federal Assistance for COVID-19
President Trump adjusted his strategy against the coronavirus on Monday, tweeting his desire for Americans to endanger themselves and others by going back to work far ahead of what has been recommended by public-health officials. But on Tuesday, the president made clear that there’s one thing he isn’t changing about his approach to the outbreak: blaming his administration’s incompetence on others, particularly New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Dr. Fauci Reports That Alcohol May Help People Survive Coronavirus Briefings
https://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/dr-fauci-reports-that-alcohol-may-help-people-survive-coronavirus-briefings
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Calling it a “promising development,” Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Sunday that alcohol may help people survive the most severe effects of coronavirus briefings.

Noting that millions of Americans have been exposed to the daily briefings of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Fauci said that he had voluntarily submitted to a preliminary trial of the alcohol-based therapy.

“What we have found is that a single dosage before the briefing and as much as a double dosage after the briefing do much to alleviate the most acute suffering,” Fauci said.

The esteemed virologist said that if Americans are able to administer additional doses during the briefings, “Consider yourself lucky.”

But, even as Fauci hailed the benefits of the new treatment, he sounded a note of caution. “The effect of this medication is temporary,” he said. “Sadly.”

Fauci’s findings are in line with anecdotal reports indicating that Americans have been alleviating symptoms in a similar manner since November, 2016.

During a Fox News town-hall event in the White House Rose Garden, Trump ramped up his attacks on the governor, who has been a vocal critic of the federal government’s sluggish response to the outbreak. In doing so, Trump said the quiet part out loud about how he views his relationship with states. “It’s a two-way street,” he said. “They have to treat us well, also. They can’t say, ‘Oh, gee, we should get this, we should get that.'”
huh...so much for the whole: "The President is there to work for the people, he's there to help all Americans not just the ones he agrees with." But I know, it's a shame when a State asks for specific things to help keep its citizens safe and stuff. And then they don't manage to do it in a properly...pleasant manner. :sorry:

And I was correct.

This:

Trump Suggests States Need to Bribe Him With Praise to Get Federal Assistance for COVID-19

Is just another unsupported assertion made by another leftist blow-hard, only this time from the Rolling Stone, blathering his opinion about what he thinks something President Trump said actually means. From the article, quote:

"In other words, if governors want the federal government to help them combat the coronavirus, they’re going to need to “be nice” to the president first.

Nothing President Trump actually said supports the claim made by Ryan Bort of the Rolling Stone.

And remember, this is the Rolling Stone, the very same rag which, following the Boston Bombing, glorified the surviving terrorist who carried out that attack:

Ah, the ole' if you cannot support a claim, just ignore and then insult ploy.... It reminds me of another old saying, but I'd most likely get reported.

Instead of insulting me, how about showing where Trump actually said it.

Sorry? There was no insult intended in any part of my remark Hammster said he didn't see it, I acknowledged I wasn't surprised. Where was the insult? I appreciate you don't agree with me about a lot of things, but I really do try very hard not to be rude to other posters on line. :sigh:

Yes, there was an insult - and it was taken that way.

Instead of insulting me, how about showing where Trump actually said it.

Why not just answer the question and show where the title of the thread is supported in the link - because it cannot seem to be found.

Hisleagacy thinks it is ok to just admit it isn't there and move on....
