So I guess that you'd be happier if the Government did nothing at all to aid it's citizens in a true time of National crisis?  I mean, whatever helps to perpetuate the myth that Republicans are just "rich people who don't care about the actual citizens", right?  However, I'm sure that if you check the political donor list, you'll find more "wealthy elites" on the Democrat contributor side than on the Republican, but whatever makes you feel like you "won" or "zinged" me...

No.  We all want to help.  Your sentence is a strawman.

Well most of us want to help.

Trump should beware: A big stimulus could lead to a slower recovery and might even ensure that Joe Biden wins in November, write Arthur Laffer and @StephenMoore https://t.co/ejUoHHtXsy

No you won't.

The democrats have always been supported by the working class union members while republicans favor corporate interests.  That is why Republicans came up with the idea of making the rich richer so they can "trickle down" the wealth to the middle and lower class.

I will say the neo-cons have stunk up the economy with their socialism for the ultra rich faux capitalism so badly that the republicans I respect the most are the ones who don't even mention trickle down and go right for the "all I care about is gay men" angle.

1. Trump said the coronavirus is the Democrat’s new hoax and people believe the president over the World Health Organization.

2. Rush said the coronavirus is a cold.

3. Hannity said the coronavirus is a deep state fraud.

4. Trish Regan claimed the coronavirus is another attempt to impeach Trump.

So what crisis? Are you getting your news from the lame stream media? Where is the incentive for people to move to where the jobs are or change careers and pull themselves up by their bootstraps if the Republicans turn to socialism and give them all this free money for sitting at home?

My comments were meant as a joke and not to be taken seriously or personally just like your meme . . . or any Trump news conference ever.

Of course not, COVID is short for Chinese Originated but we still need a wall from the Mexicans and you can't prove Muslims didn't do this VID 19.

Sunset, are you sure about your sources?

https://www.dictionary.com/e/tech-science/covid-19/
On February 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially named this novel coronavirus COVID-19. COVID is short for coronavirus disease. The number 19 refers to the fact that the disease was first detected in 2019, though the outbreak occurred in 2020. Novel coronavirus can be abbreviated as nCoV.

Apparently there is now a great deal of concern about how linking the virus to a country by name stigmatizes people perceived to be from that country. The post linked below references discrimination aimed at Chinese children in Great Britain.

So a meme saying the virus was named after a "Chinese origin," and the 19th from there, seems intended to create stigma.

Yes, yes...  But tell that to the folks who coined the terms "Spanish Flu" and "German Measles", etc. etc.
