    Default TRUMP 'grooming' us to prepare for "up to 240,000 deaths"

    I didn't see much of his rambling, batshit press conference today. Unless he talked twice today. What I saw was not a 'somber' tone and clicked him off. So I missed this little jewel buried in it! But he sees a big ray light at the end. I guess if you aren't the families and loved ones of the 240K and haven't loss your wife or your kid or your 'breadwinner', you too might see a ray of light.

    I did see Birx which startled me somewhat, I knew she was also EASING us into the higher #s.

    Trump projects up to 240,000 coronavirus deaths in U.S., even with mitigation efforts

    Trump warns of 'very bad' weeks ahead during grim coronavirus briefing

    The White House coronavirus task force on March 31 presented a grim picture of where the U.S. could be headed over the next couple of months. (Drea Cornejo/The Washington Post)

    By Philip Rucker and
    William Wan


    March 31, 2020 at 8:49 p.m. EDT

    President Trump and the physicians advising the federal pandemic response on Tuesday delivered a bleak outlook for the novel coronavirus’s spread across the country, predicting a best-case scenario of 100,000 to 240,000 fatalities in the United States and summoning all Americans to make additional sacrifices to slow the spread.

    Trump adopted a newly somber and sedate tone — and contradicted many of his own previous assessments of the virus — as he instructed Americans to continue social distancing, school closures and other mitigation efforts for an additional 30 days and to think of the choices they make as matters of life and death.

    Trump and his coronavirus task force members said that community mitigation practices in place for the past 15 days have worked and that extending them is essential. The mathematical modeling the White House presented suggests doing so could save hundreds of thousands of lives. Without community mitigation, the models predict, 1.5 million to 2.2 million Americans could die of covid-19, the disease the virus causes, though no time frames or other details were provided for the figures.

    “Our country is in the midst of a great national trial unlike any it has ever faced before,” Trump said at an early evening news conference. He went on to call on every citizen to “make sacrifices” and every business to fulfill its “patriotic duty” to brace for even tougher days ahead.

    “This is going to be a very painful — very, very painful two weeks,” Trump said. Sometime after April, he added, the country could transition back to normal with businesses reopening and people returning to work.

    “It’s going to be like a burst of light, I really think, and I hope,” Trump said. “Our strength will be tested, our endurance will be tried, but America will answer with love and courage and ironclad resolve.”...

    The OP has been whining and will continue to whine no matter what happens in an attempt to not allow any crisis to go to waste.

    The president did not cause the Chinese virus to happen. The Chinese failed to control their virus and then lied about its origin.

    Get off the wagon and help push it...for a change.

    Considering Trump is president, we're lucky it's not more.

    My dear, this has nothing in the least to do with China. I know how hard you try to change the subject. Where are the test kits promised weeks ago?

    Trump doesn't know Jack-Shit, it's the Medical Experts that have been making these predictions for more than three weeks.

    240,000 deaths is an awesome price to pay, for a Democratic hoax.

    I hope it is. I am rooting for the virus. The more it kills the better. Fewer voters is a good thing

    I am hoping it hits at least 30 million deaths

    That would do wonders for clearing out the voter rolls

    Actually that is true, because the kung flu mainly kills old people.
