Rep. Garamendi Threatens to Beat Up Donald Trump Jr. In Bizarre RantPosted at 8:00 pm on February 28, 2020 by Bonchie Share On Facebook Share On Twitter Civility, am I right? The partisan response to coronavirus has been fairly appalling to this point. We’ve seen the news media and other journalist outlets almost openly root for deaths and a growing pandemic. Why? Because they think it’ll damage the economy enough to stifle Trump’s momentum going into November. Donald Trump Jr. was at CPAC earlier today and commented on the matter, pointing out that many members of the media were being overtly political in their panic inducing coverage. This apparently didn’t sit too well with Rep. John Garamendi from California. Tom Elliott@tomselliott . @RepGaramendi suggests he might beat up @DonaldJTrumpJr for saying some Dems hope the Coronavirus will spread to make Trump look bad: “He should not be near me when he says that, there would be a serious altercation” 104 11:44 AM - Feb 28, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 144 people are talking about this Yes, that’s a sitting Congressman responding to criticism by threatening to beat someone up. How capable he is of doing that, who knows, but it’s certainly an odd response from the party running on a “return to normalcy” narrative. The truth is that Donald Trump Jr. is right. The news coverage has been disgraceful and it’s spreading widespread panic that simply isn’t backed up by the data. Is coronavirus something we should take seriously? Absolutely. Is it going to kill us all and take down our economy? Almost certainly not. Alicia Smith@Alicia_Smith19 · Feb 28, 2020 Lost in all the panic/hysteria on twitter are some really important developments coming out of Italy, goving new info on the virus and developing treatment: 1) Patients that are being treated are recovering from the virus in less than 48 hours Alicia Smith@Alicia_Smith19 2) Because the majority of the cases are mild and dont require hospitalization, Italy wll only be counting severe cases going forward in an effort to accurately communicate the level of severity/public health risk and cut down on panic. 834 11:22 AM - Feb 28, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 161 people are talking about this Alicia Smith@Alicia_Smith19 · Feb 28, 2020 Replying to @Alicia_Smith19 3) Italian biologists today have isolated the Italian strain of the virus, which will be a big step towards a vaccine and developing new more effectiventreatments. Article (in Italian) here: t.co Coronavirus, in Italia più contagi ma circoscritti: da ora comunicati solo i casi gravi per ridurre...Sono stati 17 i morti e 650 le persone positive al virus nella settimana che ha sconvolto l'Italia. Il numero potrebbe calare per la decisione di repubblica.it Alicia Smith@Alicia_Smith19 Clarification on point 2 since some have questions: The mild cases will still be reported and recorded, but they will be on a separate list/count rather than lumping all the cases together to one big total. Theyre just distinguishing the level of severity in each case 570 12:19 PM - Feb 28, 2020 Twitter Ads info and privacy 99 people are talking about this As I’ve speculated before, the much ballyhooed mortality rate of coronavirus is likely overblown. That mortality rate is almost wholly based on deaths within China, who’s communist regime has mismanaged the ordeal from the beginning. When you get outside of the China, the actual mortality rate is closer to .5 and even that is based on deaths in sub-par healthcare systems. America’s healthcare prowess would likely show the rate to be even lower. But instead of trying to bring levity to the situation, Democrats like Garamendi are talking about beating people up, because that’s helpful. These are not serious people.
