I see from my private incarceration at home, where I have languished for weeks, that the New York Times is accusing President Trump of wasting as much six weeks before taking action against the coronavirus. For weeks I have been dutifully washing my hands and even taken extra care to wash my feet while Mr. Trump and most of the White House staff were dawdling. What were they doing wasting time?
Did the White House’s dilatory behavior have something to do with impeachment? Was that somewhat of a distraction to the Assistant Presidents in the West Wing? There were in the Times’s report only two, very fleeting mentions of impeachment.

I am not completely sure what this article is saying. That impeachment was distracting Trump? I doubt it. Trump has shown that he can easily manage attacks from the Left, counterattack brilliantly, and effectively run the Country all at the same time. It is one of the things that makes the Left nuts. Usually they attack because they know it WILL distract and tie up their target. Impeachment was DOA in the Senate. Everyone knew it. Yet the dems still pursued it BECAUSE it was meant to cripple Trump. It flat out failed in all aspects.
Trump took action when it became apparent that action was needed. Remember that China, ground zero, was hiding the truth about the nature and severity of the disease. Fauci has made it VERY clear that he was mislead until he had an OMG moment, realizing this was his "worst nightmare" and that they would now have to play catch up. The first action taken, blocking Chinese travel, was taken by Trump BEFORE Fauci had his epiphany. It was a bold move and universally assaulted by the dems/media/Left as racist and xenophobic. Fauci is probably now thinking, "Thank God Trump did that!".
The media is appalled that Trump is still carrying out other government business in the midst of the crisis, things that they don't like, and Trump is laughing at the poor childlike media who don't have the capability to work on multiple tasks at the same time. That's what has been happening all along and the dems/media/Left just can't keep up.

The media are just a bunch of punk 20-somethings looking for exposure. Their knowledge of the real world is almost nil. What will they do when this is over?

The biggest complaint I saw in the story was Dimocrats thought President Trump should have read a three page article in the New York Slimes. Who wastes time on the Slimes? The ONLY time I read something from there is when an article is posted on here.

Slimes, don't forget about the four months Nan Pelousy, Pencil Neck, Jabba, and Chuckie wasted with their impeachment circus while ignoring the virus outbreak.

It was much worse than a wasting of time, more like criminal use of the government for their own uses.

I wish the republicans were that smart and true to their base when obama was President.

I'm reminded of David Mamet's quote about how Lefty's must pretend not to know things to keep their world-view afloat. There used to be a time lag between events and their penchant for rewriting history. Today they attempt do it in real time at the daily pressers, so re-scripting a two-month old narrative is just "clarification". These amateur propagandists haven't got a chance against the Reality TV Show Master. Emphasis on the word "reality".
Off topic observation: In the accompanying photo of Nasty Pelosi (warning label needed) I noticed that she bites her fingernails. I've observed the same thing about Hillary! over the years. When I was a nervous liberal Dem I bit my nails terribly. When TK led me to the reasoned joys of conservationism I kicked the life-long habit and now complimented on my hands. I'm sure there are conservative women who bite their nails, but I think the nervous chewing is another physical manifestation of socialist/communist thinking; like conservative women dress better and are prettier than Lefty women. Just sayin'.

I never noticed that, #7. You’d think that someone with her millions could afford a manicure now and then. In that photo she also looks like she’s had a stroke and one side of her face is sagging. Either that or her plastic surgeries have given out.

Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom’s aunt, reminds us we must win the House on November 3rd. Impeachment was already shot and He is stronger than ever in the bully pulpit. Donald the Great is truly a gift from God. We are blessed.

I really don't get this article. The dems have wasted everyone's time and money since President Trump became President. They have not accomplished one thing other than go after him. Looks like they're starting up again. We really have to vote these losers out in Nov. No mail in ballots. That's such a great way of cheating and the dems know it.

The New York Times is basically Adam Schiff.

For #7 and #8 and others, someone on TV mentioned that Pelosi gets in to work early enough to have her hair done--every single day. They could chop her hands plumb off, for all I care.

Weeks were lost in January because nobody could verify the Chinese data. Whose job was that? The House Intelligence Committee. Who's in charge of that? Why, Adam Schiff. So not only was he distracting the President, he was falling down on his basic duty. It is he, not Trump who has blood on his hands. How has he got away with it?
