A leader needs to be proactive and have open ears to experts. He is not a man of all trade. That's the failures of Trump.

He downplayed, underated and still boasted about preparedness. At first hit, America caved in.

This same America warned Israel in November about this pandemic and ignored the reports for economic gains.

And price all Americans have to pay.

I think trump is playing politics with this covid19

Yes, I support your thoughts. He wants to win their hearts in granting their wish to end the lockdown so he can have a soft landing towards his bid for re-election.

Trump was given a detailed intelligence report with recommendation to shut down boarders. The economic impact was gruesome and why he neglected it.

When in read on Israeli times that USA gave them Intel in November last year, I was weak. This was a well planned out if ignorance.

If he had done earlier, The economy would be opened by now and the count can never be close to what's on ground now. Same economy you trying to protect has been grounded. So whats the gain of the delay. Now you have a crashed economy and high death and infected toll.

Let this pandemic pass over, I believe alot of revelations still in stock. America got Intel about this pandemic early enough. It was downplayed.


So let me get this straight, he was fighting an impeachment, and you expect him to have ordered the border closure when battling the impeachment, something the Democrats would have countered immediately and used as more asernal in pursuing the impeachment.

Hmm, one simple question, do you recall when he stopped flights from China Democrats presented a bill to remove that power from his hand?

Even after receiving 500 dollars a week to stay at home,USA citizens are still protesting against the lockdown. Nobody got shot or brutally beaten. In Nigeria FG is exploiting the covid-19 to enrich themselves and at the same time imposing lockdown on people without any palliative. more people have been killed by police and Herdsmen.... Of all the countries I could have been born in it had to be Nigeria cry . I would rather be a TREE in Europe or America than a human being in this country

Chairman sir, you seem to forget that unlike here in Nigeria where the president can do as he likes without reprimand from the Congress, there are a lot of things Trump can't do without Senate approval.

Trump blocked flights from China and Europe on time. Do you know their Congress passed a bill wanting to remove his ability to do that?

Trump asked Americans to adhere to CDC guidelines on time, do you know Nancy Pelosi went to China town and told people to disregard every recommendations from Trump and celebrate in Chinatown?

Please en, can you can you categorically state out what other actions he could have taken earlier that the Democrats will not have blocked?

You talking about the President of the US here. He does not require the Senate to do that. When he did, did he get approval. The political and media foolishness got America to where it stands today. That I can never dispute several Republicans, Democrats and Media outlets downplayed it. Trump ignored, downplayed and boasted about it to no avail. From 1 to 15, and now 42k in less than 6weeks.

Pelosi can blame the president, Coumo can, or anybody else. Who is Trump going to blame as the president? That's what he failed to realise and that Democrats are capitalising on. His failures. Economy grounded, stocks in a mess up, deficit piling up.

And Trump need open economy at the expense of human life's to clean up. It's not all about the economy. It's for political gains

Susu888:



You obviously haven't been updated that masks nd gloves are almost useless so what you nd the idiots protesting are suggesting is not the way to go, lockdown is the only way to stop the infection from spreading.


Do you think china never tried the mask nd gloves sh*t all in the bid not to make it obvious to the world that it was loosing its grip on the situation? Guess wht finally happened?? Lockdown! Because it can't be stopped by masks ,gloves nd distancing.


And lets say they manage to make it work in the U.S.A how in the world can you make naija people where mask and gloves?? Nd in cities as crowded as lagos nd kano.

I thought you were only dumb but it turns out you're also pure stupidity....You lack a functioning brain.


Bleep off my mentions i dislike stupid folks that argue blindly.

The fact you accuse others of lacking a functioning brain when from the post you are as guilty of this is something to behold.

The lockdown is not and was never the best option. The problem China faced was not that the masks were ineffective but that there were insufficient.

Also and more importantly, China did not actively push the usage of masks. Infact they were denying the sickness could be transmitted from human to human as at late January.

Guy reason now, God no give you number 6 for fancy.

So why is Nigeria still like this in this day and age:
This is just the picture.. I watched the video..
it’s a long story Bross but I can give you a bit highlight
1. Population. Nigeria is Norway+Singapore + Congo + Lebanon + Libya + Hong Kong+ Denmark +Togo + Finland+Oman + Palestine +....14 other countries with population less than 8,000,000.... can u imagine one country with all these nations and different cultures, ways of lives/ orientation different religions coupled together and call it a Nation

Nigeria has more than 250 languages/culture ( what of India you may say?) the whites that ‘joined’ us together did so in their own interest .. check the facts...

Please don’t compare us with America .. that alone is part of the problem. Other reasons for another day.
If at all we should be a nation .. we are supposed to be ‘United Nations of Nigeria’ ( maybe)

Are you aware of America's intelligence. Trump just using WHO to cover up of recent. WHO's report was not in the picture till he was boxed to the wall. They knew the extent of this damage. Let's imagine they never knew the extent, but could issue a warning to Israel and NATO. Does it make sense?

Trump had the reports and power to act, it's all for economic gains to score political points. Also, if he was called Xenophobic then, his he not doing what ought to have been done earlier by stopping immigration? He is the no 1 man. Drastic situations require drastic measures irrespective of what anybody thinks or feels, cos at the end of the day, you will take the credit or blame, solely.

that person you keep quoting is not worth your time or energy

it is easy to spot people who spend all their time listening to people like glenn beck and rush Limbaugh and sleep and breathe fox news

they are the new slaves

the funniest and most unfortunate part of this thread is that people think these protesters are just regular everyday Americans

but the truth is much deeper, these people were mobilized by tea party and conservative organisations to protest mostly democratic governors and make them look bad

that how they blocked the Michigan Capitol and prevented health workers from getting to work in the name of "protest"

well the person temporarily in charge of the country is an empty headed ignorant man, so his followers are just the same

after this crisis america will have a reckoning

as for these "protesters", the best thing is just to ignore them and protect your family and loved ones by keeping to the rules

It's because of people like you that we are appealing to NCDC to stop releasing age details and health status of those dead. That is what they were parroting in the U. S until the cases is now nearing 1 million. If the woman didn't contact Covid she'd probably be alive today. Don't forget that your health condition is also as good as your last check up. When last did you check your blood pressure, sugar, cholesterol. Do you know that being overweight can also be classified as an underlying health condition?

A good job. Highest death and infected toll in the world. That's something to boast about.

You don't know Trump, he has shifted blame to Democrats, Press, Governor's, China and it's now WHO. He never takes responsibility for anything.

So we can say he ignored intelligence report and went with that of WHO. It's just a cover up. His friends dropped stocks before the market crash. Does that tell you something?

The pandemic is even a money spindling venture for his sponsors and why Democrats are holding back the new bailouts. They benefiting the most from the bail out. An average American gets peanut and pays more taxes. Its like the poor paying the rich

Let's imagine states are racking up counts, does it warrant 42k death in 7 weeks?


Less than 5million tested in 350 million and you gunning for opening the economy.

The most dying are people with underlying ailment which is common to old people. Reasons why you can see blacks of all age groups falling victims the most.

The model was a projection which has failed, but as it stands with reality, the graph just flattened and their must be a considerable drop to assure people.

It's easier to say let them open the economy. I can say it too of I won't be in the fore-front. Of am allowed to work from home, it's okay by me. But that will be selfish of me. Do you know how many police, fire fighters, doctors, nurses, public transportation drivers and grocery shop attendant that have most their life's. Now you want to flood the places again when you not even having figures that warrant you to do such.

All this people protesting are the most cautious people. They just have self believe they can't be infected and trying to push others.


Sir, have you noticed something is missing in all these, the death rate outside Covid-19. Do you know even now currently with the corona virus deaths, the overall death rate now is lower than the average in all the places,

People die, and 42,000 death rate in 7 weeks was actually 857 deaths per day. Please do not take my word for it, google the normal death rates of those places before corona virus, tell me if it is lower or higher.

Bro, what part of the fact that over 60% of those with the virus won't feel/know they have it until their body kills it don't you get?

What part of the fact that only 10% of infected will show symptoms strong enough to warrant hospital visitation don't you get?

What part of the fact that the sickness is fatal to less than 5% of infected don't you get?

The disease is like any other one. I just recovered Malaria and I felt like dying, so feeling bad with any sickness is not new.

But to say everyone should be afraid because something is fatal to less than 5%.

Do you know more than 5% of people lose their lives as a result of alcohol, you don't see anybody moving to ban clubs as a result.

We know how to deal with malaria, typhoid, syphilis etc, even someone with chronic underlying situation can manage these you have mentioned.

But do you know how to manage this with Covid-19? Covid-19 is that dangerous because we have not known way of dealing with it.

You are sounding like Trump. Does impeachment hold him back from reading reports and taking decisive actions. Okay, Democrats attacked, didn't he finally ban and still allowed 40k travellers from China to the USA after ban was in place. It all came late.

He did what he should have done earlier without consultation. He will stop immigration to the USA today, did he get approval to do that or used his veto power? That's a cheap political excuse that impeachment held him back or people were complaining. Are people not complaining now.

It takes great skills to become a leader and scenarios like this only opens the weak and fragile. He is feared by his subordinates and why revelations won't come out now cos no one wants to be sacked. The fragility of his cabinet is exposed to all. Every one of them is extra ordinarily careful with his words.

And you think you made sense?
Did you ask yourself why the state governors including the ones from his party are not with him on this one?
Over 700k got infected with over 40k dead and you think it's overhyped?
The reason those people are staging those protest is because Mr. Trump lifted the lockdown which the governors did not agree to.

Sir, there is only one Republican governor not siding with Trump, all the others are with him on this.

And right now, antegen test is showing that the infection rate might be at least 3 times the tested number. Meaning three times as much people caught the virus without knowing they did.

As for the death, have you noticed death rate for non covid sickness has been hidden? Do you know why? Because even with the Covid death, the current death rate is lower than the average death rate of those region before Covid-19.

Let that sink in with over 42k deaths in 7 weeks, the death rate is still lower than the normal average before Covid-19. Do not take my word for it, you do your own research to see if I am right.
