Aggressive, accusatory NBC News reporter Kristen Welker told the President at today’s presser that he knew the pandemic was coming, and then asked, “So, why was the United States not prepared with more testing and supplies?”
The President responded:
“We were very prepared. And the only thing we weren’t prepared for was the media. The media has not treated it fairly. I’ll tell you how prepared I was. I called for a ban from people coming in from China long before anybody thought it was… In fact, it was your network. I believe they called me a racist because I did that.”
“It was made the people in the room they called me racist and other words because I did that because I went so early. So when you say we weren’t prepared had I let these tens of thousands of people come in from China a day we would have had something right now that would have been, that you wouldn’t have even recognized compared to where we are…”
“So when you say I wasn’t prepared, I was the first one to do the ban. Now the countries are following what I did. But the media doesn’t acknowledge that. They know it’s true but they don’t want to write about it.”
She should be shamed by this, but she wasn’t. Welker tried to continue her tirade. These reporters are arrogant and think they have the right to say anything they want, any way they want.
They need to come off their self-constructed pedestals. No one thinks all that much of them, certainly not as much as they think of themselves.
Watch:
President Trump announced that he was restricting Travel to and from China on January 31st
The media called him Racist.
Joe Biden called him Xenophobic.

It wasn’t only the media who attacked the President for his early travel ban that looks brilliant in hindsight. A poster reminded us of Chuck Schumer’s comment in early February:
While the President was acting on the travel ban of China, the Democrats were impeaching the President, distracting him from the job. They cared nothing of the danger ahead. Only the President acted and he did so under great duress, not only from the impeachment but also from the constant insults and attacks by the media.
Why didn’t they have millions of each of these medical devices? Ask Nancy Pelosi. She knew about it 14 years ago.
Another NBC reporter actually said that China helped delay the virus. That person, Keir Simmons, is actually spreading Communist propaganda.
NBC’s @KeirSimmons said that China “Helped” the Europe and America by “Delaying” the arrival Coronavirus and says China is now worried about the rest of the world re-infecting them..

He scolded the media for their dishonest stories and for siding with China against the U.S. administration:

WHO is the one lying. It’s getting really old when people have to correct reporters accusations of Trump lying. James Fallows is a champion of lies.

It was just reported that Trump’s approval with this pandemic has improved quite a bit. So, Now, some people are in full panic mode. From the Atlantic, that idiot says FDA approved use of the malaria drug for this virus. And HE calls Trump a liar. That’s not what Trump was saying. Many keep piling on about how Trump is lying, but Never have I read even one situation where they cite ANYTHING in particular. All they can say is, “he keep lying”. Talk about gaslighting.

Trump SPECIFICALLY said in Thursday’s presser that the FDA approved for “compassionate use”. I’ll bet that James Fallows, who IS a known liar, of the Atlantic asked the FDA and they “clarified” that it was for “compassionate use”. What Fallows does NOT say is Trump DID say that. I watched that video again and CONFIRMED That is what Trump said.
Indeed Italy brought the disaster on themselves, open borders, then accepting cheap labor from China.
The MSM comrades got used to spineless chamber of commerce republicants and don’t know how to handle one who fights back.
Out on the street big mouths don’t have a plan for what to do when you let them know that you aren’t the one to be messing with.
@ Greg,
Italy has the globalist wide open borders sickness and now it will pay a high price for living in a delusion.
As usual the everyday people didn’t vote for the delusional fairytales of a borderless serf utopia.
Borderless world means no firewalls for pandemics or economic wipeouts.
And NOW, Italy has MORE deaths than China. I’m sure Italy has kind words for China. Well, maybe not. Many of their workers in the Chinese owned factories are immigrant Chinese.
Yeah, right. China really did help. They had their big new years celebration right in the middle of the outbreak. Then, if That wasn’t enough, they had plane loads of people travel To Italy From those areas. Then, if THAT wasn’t enough, they circulated videos to have the Italian HUG the Chinese.
Yeah, China helped. They proactively helped to infect the Entire Damn World.
