A recession is technically two consecutive quarters of negative GDP. I am doubtful we will have one. I know, it's too early to tell, got it. I'm optimistic and it really does appear this virus will wash through.
Q2 will be a disaster but hopefully the recovery is quick enough that we bounce back in Q3.
Trump can certainly play his cards right and get reelected even in the wake of a recession, especially against a clearly senile and out of it Biden. Keep pushing the "Chinese Virus" angle and use it to fuel the America First mission. We're seeing now how the Chinese position in the supply chain is a danger to American life, safety, and welfare.
They’ll still do some sort of mental gymnastics to tell themselves they’re still in Obama’s economy and forget those few weeks when they bitched about Trump speeches tanking the market.
Hmmm...but Money is life, and sustenance. At what point does the economic impact outweigh the maximum possible people who MIGHT die from COVID-19? When millions lose work in small business shutters, cottage industries collapse, etc - people on welfare and unemployment again. I’m not sure how this statement makes sense?
If you read it like a mathematician, sure. If you realize that most real-world cases have no solution that wins on every front, then, as a leader, you say things about priorities that raise morale.
My based elderly mom is on lockdown at her ALF. She told me last night how much she loves watching this Task Force and she said she is really getting to love Mike Pence and that she thinks he is very handsome..:) I told her they don't call him the "Silver Fox" for nothing.. She did not know that.
My wife is a stylist with several TDS clients she expected to be losing their minds. She said they’ve been surprisingly chill and one family said they like how he’s handling it. Truly amazing.
And boy do some of my relatives, who never seemed to care before, hate the way media is reporting it. They (MSM) are killing their credibility with these people, but they just can't stop!
The corporate media has completely miscalculated their ability to weaponize this. They could string people out on abstract nonsense like “Russian Collusion” and “Mueller Report” and “Ukraine Impeachment” because none of that really affected people’s lives. It was just annoying. This is different. The media has doubled down on their mental abuse of the American People and forced everyone into a kind of low-level, constant state of panic. And guess what? Human beings aren’t actually built for that. We don’t do so well with constant panic and seek to relieve that panic or come to some sort of reasonable conclusion to end that panic. For many of us, that was simply accepting the possibilities of this virus in a mature way and moving forward strongly and strategically. That is also the President’s message. The media’s message is the opposite: they want you ramped up, confused, angry, paranoid, and panicky. So people are sensing that and disengaging mentally. Because what they are selling us is actually intolerable. Even the biggest SJW leftist pansy cannot maintain this kind of panic, and will begin to resist the source fueling that panic.
Leftists are still spreading fake news and lies about how "Trump called the virus a hoax" and "Trump tried to buy America exclusive access to a vaccine".
100% blatant lies.
We're beyond the point of ever reconciling this nation with these degenerate seditionists. I frankly don't see how we can ever share this country with them again. It's like having a roommate who in the middle of the night tries to forcibly rape you, and then the next morning acts like it's fine because he didn't penetrate you so it's okay.
They actually called him a racist in January. Now we know that bold decision was key. Also MSM and creepy Joe saying the Europe ban was xenophobic next we heard some official from the EU say Europe is now the epicenter. The media and Dems are fucking deranged and beyond redemption
This is truly the event that will bring people together in the long term. I have been wondering what it would take to narrow the divide and it turns out that it took a global pandemic. I personally think it's all a little overblown but hey the lefties want and need a strong leader, and they have it. Now they can finally see it.
GEOTUS is handling this situation very well imo. Having daily briefings like this puts me at ease. VP Pence and the rest of the task force are doing a fantastic job.
The media are the ones who are fear mongering. I believe people will see through their fake concerns and political bias BS once they realize they can't fool everyone forever.
GEOTUS is performing the CEO role with the big ideas and letting the experts handle and speak about the details. I’m loving watching these briefings and all the moving parts they are managing. Also loving how they are calling in private companies to help where they can ie. asking constructions companies to donate masks to hospitals. It is truly amazing to see how this situation is being handled.
Trump is the man we needed to get through this. Thank God for 2016. It was so much more consequential than we realized. Imagine if Hillary was president right now.
Dont worry. She'll tell America all about the President lying and deflecting blame tonight on the NBC News with that scummy "gotcha" snicker on her fuckin face.
Donald Trump is the greatest president of our lifetime. If the MSM played this without their political slant, this country would feel so much better. If you are watching this presser in full without commentary, you would feel a sense of calm. It's a shame the media actively roots against the calm.
"The reason we didn't use some of the tests from other countries was because after we analyzed them they weren't as accurate as they should have been. The tests we are rolling out are more accurate."
Meanwhile Trump has provided the most media access in history and gets call an authoritarian dictator that is destroying the free press and democracy. It's outrageous the double standards.
I love that trump knows to step aside at times and let his team speak. He always said he would hire the right people, and he knows to let them speak for themselves when necessary.
That's why it still blows me away how much flak he gets. People act like everything coming out of his admin is his sole decision. As a billionaire real estate mogul, a doubt very seriously he gets up to take a piss without consult.
I offered them 80 kajillion tests but they rejected them. The test is a piece of paper that says "positive" -- it's very non invasive and has no false negatives!
48 from the state of Washington. Most of those from one nursing home.
Weird that someone from Wuhan traveled to the US and immediately infected a nursing home. Almost like they were trying to make the early death rate look astronomical.
Boeing shouldn't be given anything. They brought most of their problems on themselves starting with outsourcing tech for the 737 Max to a third world country.
That was not the only Atlanta address theoretically used by thousands of “unauthorized” alien workers receiving millions in federal tax refunds in 2011. In fact, according to a TIGTA audit report published last year, four of the top ten addresses to which the IRS sent thousands of tax refunds to “unauthorized” aliens were in Atlanta.
The IRS sent 11,284 refunds worth a combined $2,164,976 to unauthorized alien workers at a second Atlanta address; 3,608 worth $2,691,448 to a third; and 2,386 worth $1,232,943 to a fourth.
They keep deluding themselves into thinking that he's like all the RINOS, that they can attack him and he'll eventually cower and apologize, but it never happens. He wrecks their asses EVERY TIME, and they just keep doing it. Bunch of retards.
Q has a lot of posts regarding the word BIG. It's also interesting that both Bob IGer and BIll Gates also have BIG in their names and both resigned recently.
Someone seriously needs to build a website summarizing all these measures. The media isn't reporting this properly, social media keeps circlejerking over how "aMeRiCa iSnT dOiNG aNyThiNg".
Is it just me or does the media actually seem fairly rational today. I mean they're asking questions that often don't have reasonable answers but they don't seem designed to engineer a response that is going to be an excuse for outrage.
We should all be thankful for Steve Mnuchin too. He never takes any bunk from Congress or the press. He's very competent at dealing with the idiocy of Washington DC.
people still get refunds? lol not as many since they changed the W4 stuff for 2020. They claim they "warned everyone" but not enough for people to change their withholding
well that and wife and I cashed in matured savings bonds finally and got fucked by the interest.
Trump's visible disgust with the very Fake News and their lack of goodwill put a bad look on the press that they seem to have quietly acknowledged. Won't hold, certainly, but you're right that the tenor seemed better for this moment.
That would be awesome.
A recession is technically two consecutive quarters of negative GDP. I am doubtful we will have one. I know, it's too early to tell, got it. I'm optimistic and it really does appear this virus will wash through.

No Marine Left Behind!
These haters, who also think abortion is a woman's right, have no place talking about being concerned for "life".
Hit that arrow if you are thankful a certain Side of Beef is not giving the WH press conference.
This probably wouldn't be a story if Hillary was president and up for reelection
That hag wouldn't give one, anymore than the "former administration" did.
My based elderly mom is on lockdown at her ALF. She told me last night how much she loves watching this Task Force and she said she is really getting to love Mike Pence and that she thinks he is very handsome..:) I told her they don't call him the "Silver Fox" for nothing.. She did not know that.
LOVE IT !
Lol. That is awesome.
Can confirm MagaBirdLady Mommy has good taste.
:)
Well done. These get better every day. I'm even seeing leftists giving him credit for how he's handling this.
Dang -- that is so true!
So now not only is re election all but assured, he's going into term 2 with a sheißload of political capital. Me likey.
Nothing is assured
That's why I said all but assured and not assured. Username checks out though.
My wife is a stylist with several TDS clients she expected to be losing their minds. She said they’ve been surprisingly chill and one family said they like how he’s handling it. Truly amazing.
So it’s almost solely the media that hates Trump’s handling of this. 😂
And boy do some of my relatives, who never seemed to care before, hate the way media is reporting it. They (MSM) are killing their credibility with these people, but they just can't stop!

yes, even my democrat daughter is watching and giving high marks.
Leftists are still spreading fake news and lies about how "Trump called the virus a hoax" and "Trump tried to buy America exclusive access to a vaccine".
100% blatant lies.
We're beyond the point of ever reconciling this nation with these degenerate seditionists. I frankly don't see how we can ever share this country with them again. It's like having a roommate who in the middle of the night tries to forcibly rape you, and then the next morning acts like it's fine because he didn't penetrate you so it's okay.
These people are still screaming RUSSIA. TDS is terminal now.
Oh look! Another concern post!!! Faggot you GLOW
They actually called him a racist in January. Now we know that bold decision was key. Also MSM and creepy Joe saying the Europe ban was xenophobic next we heard some official from the EU say Europe is now the epicenter. The media and Dems are fucking deranged and beyond redemption
...but italy didn't publicly go pandemic unitl recently...
This is truly the event that will bring people together in the long term. I have been wondering what it would take to narrow the divide and it turns out that it took a global pandemic. I personally think it's all a little overblown but hey the lefties want and need a strong leader, and they have it. Now they can finally see it.
November will be interesting after this.
GEOTUS is handling this situation very well imo. Having daily briefings like this puts me at ease. VP Pence and the rest of the task force are doing a fantastic job.
The media are the ones who are fear mongering. I believe people will see through their fake concerns and political bias BS once they realize they can't fool everyone forever.
yeah, finally some adults running the show
They ask panic-toned questions like “WHERE IS DR. REDFIELD?” and the team is like, uh, he’s in Atlanta running the CDC.
Journalists have become an even lower breed than politicians. They are like the bacteria that live in the slime coating a leech.
GEOTUS is performing the CEO role with the big ideas and letting the experts handle and speak about the details. I’m loving watching these briefings and all the moving parts they are managing. Also loving how they are calling in private companies to help where they can ie. asking constructions companies to donate masks to hospitals. It is truly amazing to see how this situation is being handled.
Being considered by POTUS: "Companies that bring back their supply chain from overseas getting a tax break."
I like that, good incentive especially for our medical supply chain which is a must. Buy American should be the phrase all over the country.
This I like! Fuck chyna. Seriously. We need to eliminate that communist shithole
They are asshoe
Just get rid of CCP and all will be fine
MAMA
steely eyed, stone cold killer, badass IMO
Trump is the man we needed to get through this. Thank God for 2016. It was so much more consequential than we realized. Imagine if Hillary was president right now.
Here here! We have a big problem and it's being handled by a big problem solver. God bless Trump and God bless America.
Ok dummy...Mnuchin just said they are looking at 2 weeks to get the checks out. Welker then asks how long? Do these children even listen?
No.
they're trying to confuse him so he says something wrong then they can "quote him" later on the fake news. it's all about soundbites with the MSM
Dont worry. She'll tell America all about the President lying and deflecting blame tonight on the NBC News with that scummy "gotcha" snicker on her fuckin face.
...Lester?
Yeah she doesn't even try to hide her hate of geotus. Neither does lester.
Lol... the thought of all the Bernie Bro bartenders and waitresses getting a check from Trump
reeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Haha
Can't wait for AOC to demand her check.
Donald Trump is the greatest president of our lifetime. If the MSM played this without their political slant, this country would feel so much better. If you are watching this presser in full without commentary, you would feel a sense of calm. It's a shame the media actively roots against the calm.
Lady Doctor,
"The reason we didn't use some of the tests from other countries was because after we analyzed them they weren't as accurate as they should have been. The tests we are rolling out are more accurate."
Globalism BTFO. Long live ‘murica!
This is the most transparent administration in American History. Remember when Obama promised to be the most transparent president?
He was literally the opposite.
Meanwhile Trump has provided the most media access in history and gets call an authoritarian dictator that is destroying the free press and democracy. It's outrageous the double standards.
Yeah, we saw right through that guy.
reminded me of every boss who said "I have an open door policy..." Yeah, right.
SCANDAL FREE you racist xenophobe!
Pence is very well spoken. Calm. Confident. Perfect for this stage
I love that trump knows to step aside at times and let his team speak. He always said he would hire the right people, and he knows to let them speak for themselves when necessary.
That's why it still blows me away how much flak he gets. People act like everything coming out of his admin is his sole decision. As a billionaire real estate mogul, a doubt very seriously he gets up to take a piss without consult.
Reporter: Critics say calling it the Chinese virus creates a stigma.
POTUS: I think saying that our military gave it to them is a stigma.
Yeah that was baller
He's good!
Well that clears up the stupid testing debacle. It wasn't up to American standards.
I offered them 80 kajillion tests but they rejected them. The test is a piece of paper that says "positive" -- it's very non invasive and has no false negatives!
I'd bet the tests gave false negatives so that our death rate would seem greater.
I still can't get my head around why Canada, who just blocked flights from China yesterday, isn't reporting conditions like Italy, Iran and China yet.
Something isn't right!
UK has 71 deaths, population 67M. USA has 96 deaths, population 330M.........we are doing really well on Corona.
48 from the state of Washington. Most of those from one nursing home.
Weird that someone from Wuhan traveled to the US and immediately infected a nursing home. Almost like they were trying to make the early death rate look astronomical.
People need to learn patience. It'll be a rough spring but it'll bounce back mid to late summer. Just wait and see!
I think it will bounce back Bigly! With 4 more years of Trump at the helm too!
Pence is the shit. I've been so impressed with his handling of this and his leadership on the task force.
He has seemed very composed. I’ve been impressed as well
His faith. Very calm guy.
Pence2024
Thank goodness. I lost 50k last week.
I feel you. I have lost a monstrous amount of money in the retirement account. 😪
dang mnuchin is legit
He's fantastic in Congressional hearings dealing with low IQ people too.
I'm extremely impressed with mnuchin. Totally calm cool and collected. Knows every answer.
Trump's economic team is top shelf...Mnuchin, Larry Kudlow, Peter Navarro, Wilbur Ross, etc.
God Bless POTUS for shutting down that limey cuck and his "mUh cHyNa vIrUs"
China: weld people into their apartments and let them rot.
USA: use an app to get food from BK, fresh and hot.
We have the greatest President in the history of America. No doubt in my mind now.
Boeing shouldn't be given anything. They brought most of their problems on themselves starting with outsourcing tech for the 737 Max to a third world country.
DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH, you racist bigot!
Sorry our planes keep flying themselves into the dirt!
Mnuchin has a total command of the facts for his area of responsibility.
We are lucky we have him..
BREAKING: All "undocumented" immigrants can claim their stimulus check at their local ICE offices.
I wonder how many thousands of checks will get sent to single addresses of those fake paperwork ITIN earned income credit tax preparers? Hopefully they shred all the checks that have addresses in Mexico!
New social distancing rule: all illegal immigrants must stay at least 200 miles south of the most southern American citizen.
Note to self: that person is an idiot.
States have restricted travel, shut down bars, restaurants, gyms. 2 months ago I didn't think this would happen.
That's very different than a national quarantine. This is designed to slow the spread of the virus over the next few weeks.
And then what happens? We all go out and get the virus in May?
Also hoping it will die out in the warmer weather
I understand. Just saying, what I thought unimaginable in the US 2 months ago has come to fruition. A full quarantine is not unimaginable to me now.
New Orleans has banned gun and ammo sales. WalMart has banned ammo sales too. I guess guns and ammo can transmit the virus.
How many wives does this dude have?
lol!
Until it happens
Not a doctor... tsk, tsk
Very Stable Genius Dr. Cowboy President Trump
PLAY FAIR: or get dick-slapped by Daddy
They keep deluding themselves into thinking that he's like all the RINOS, that they can attack him and he'll eventually cower and apologize, but it never happens. He wrecks their asses EVERY TIME, and they just keep doing it. Bunch of retards.
Which is why we love Geotus. He doesn't let these cucks get away with their bullshit.
Ass wrecked harder than Andrew Gillum 😲😲😲😲
W.H.O. can suck my waxed balls
I am not even an american but i think he would be the best president ever of any country in the world.
On behalf of the American people and our POTUS thank you!
Not an American either, totally agree
I don’t know about anyone else but I see a new firearm purchase in my future with this stimulus payment. I have plenty of toilet paper.
Honestly, the patriotic thing to do is to spend it at a small business that is struggling right now.
I know just the small business gun shop to purchase from
Like a gun store.
Get it now before your state suspends background checks.
I’m in Missouri. Not overly concerned about that but your point is well taken.
Constitutional carry ftw
What are you getting at?
Something along these lines: https://qmap.pub/read/3738
Q has a lot of posts regarding the word BIG. It's also interesting that both Bob IGer and BIll Gates also have BIG in their names and both resigned recently.
(Not an endorsement of Q, just providing context)
Someone seriously needs to build a website summarizing all these measures. The media isn't reporting this properly, social media keeps circlejerking over how "aMeRiCa iSnT dOiNG aNyThiNg".
We could crowdsource it... this needs to happen
the media would just say it's all fake news and only their reporting is accurate.
what a hackjob.
Cuck acting like Trump called it the Ching Chong virus.
Sum Ting Wong
Nao Wei Mang
But isn't it?
Is it just me or does the media actually seem fairly rational today. I mean they're asking questions that often don't have reasonable answers but they don't seem designed to engineer a response that is going to be an excuse for outrage.
Well they reduced the number of reporters and kicked a bunch of the asshoe’s out
Weird, social distancing seems to be exponentially reducing their virulence.
It's almost like they scared themselves with their own hysterics so now they need Papa T to feed them calming information lol.
They seemed calmer today.
They can't deny that daddy is bringing them comfort and safety.
We should all be thankful for Steve Mnuchin too. He never takes any bunk from Congress or the press. He's very competent at dealing with the idiocy of Washington DC.
people still get refunds? lol not as many since they changed the W4 stuff for 2020. They claim they "warned everyone" but not enough for people to change their withholding
well that and wife and I cashed in matured savings bonds finally and got fucked by the interest.
trump has build an impressive team.
[Screams in AIDS Skrillex] FUCKING WHITE MALES!
Did you just assume their gender shitlord
Most of these reporters are idiots.
Pence is doing a great job.
POTUS is on this.
Fuck this virus.
Trump is doing such a great fucking job today, I’m so proud of him.
Can I ask why this is the most normal press conference in a LONG time? We need more of this tenor.
It’s actually civil. About time.
Trump's visible disgust with the very Fake News and their lack of goodwill put a bad look on the press that they seem to have quietly acknowledged. Won't hold, certainly, but you're right that the tenor seemed better for this moment.
Maybe cause these dipshits are realizing this isn't a game... Get with the program or get out of the F'ing way...
Trump shored up the markets. I'm looking for deals now, I think we'll bounce back BIGLY
Buy, buy, buy!!!
I would bet on MSFT
Can't watch, who's getting checks? I don't want a check, I want the grocery store to not be a fucking idiotic madhouse.
Lefties will get it, but they will spend it on hormone therapies and meth.
