On an amusing note, this might be the best voice impersonation of anyone ever, Trump or otherwise:

Congratulations to Trump. His magnificent handling of the situation has seen the US crash through into 1st place in the World. According to Worldometer, the US has recorded 13,968 new confirmed cases in the last day, for a total of 82,179 confirmed cases, ahead of China and Italy. The US should break the magic 100,000 barrier by Saturday morning, our time - unless, of course, they expand their testing (in which case, they would probably be well beyond 100,000, now).

Will you keep using this thread after his re election, or start a new one?

Baldwin's however is not meant to be just a direct impersonation on it's own as it were: It's a sketch comedy and some of the sketches with Baldwin are very funny

We should start a new thread with how many people have died from Cornona Virus directly caused by Trump's tardiness and policies (remember he was warned in January and did nothing)

Then again you could start a new thread to show how Trump has solved the Corona Virus and fixed the economy by Easter as he has claimed. Mind you I don't think he stated which Easter.

He banned flights from China and was called a racist by people now saying he didn't do enough.

Rather ironic considering China just closed its borders now. Three months too late.

China's numbers are total bullshit. I still believe they're streets ahead of everyone else.

^ Trump acted belatedly and his politics of denial will certainly cost tens - if not hundreds - of thousands of lives. Does it matter what some other morons said about him at the time? It's about doing the right thing and not killing people, not about political point-scoring.

Jezza, China's numbers probably are total rubbish - but it's plain enough that the US numbers are wrong, too. Not that I suppose it matters - in due course, they'll (probably) count (at least some of) the dead.

^ I agree the US numbers wrong. They haven't done enough testing across the board.

Out of those being tested, 53% have tested "positive" to the virus. In contrast, those tested in Australia have accounted for 1%-2% of "positive" tests.

Pretty much sums up the current debate in the US over whether to send everyone back to work after Easter...

Trump was banning flights from China while Italy was having "Hug a Chinaman" event to combat racism. He acted in JANUARY. All the armchair pandemic experts around here are hilarious. You were all saying it's not even as bad as the flu a month ago so get out of here with this shit.
