So after two days of bloodshed on Wall Street that have wiped out the year’s gains-to-date, Trump has decided that the most thing he can do…is find someone to blame:

‘Furious’ Trump ‘unhappy’ with HHS secretary after massive stock market plunge over coronavirus fears: reporthttps://t.co/pJR98scrbk

President Donald Trump is “furious” the DOW plunged nearly 2000 points during the past two days over coronavirus fears, wiping out all of 2020’s gains as the November reelection approaches. The President watched the markets from India, and grew even more “unhappy” with Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar after a top CDC official warned the coronavirus would spread across the country.

By the way, see if this sounds familiar:

Despite the CDC’s Nancy Messonnier alerting Americans today that it’s “not a question of if this will happen but when this will happen and how many people in this country will have severe illnesses,” Trump White House spokesman Judd Deere said that “what we are seeing today is a political effort by the Left and some in the media to distract and disturb the American people with fearful rhetoric and palace intrigue.”

“The United States economy is the strongest in the world thanks to the leadership and policies of President Trump. The virus remains low risk domestically because of the containment actions taken by this Administration since the first of the year.”

Yes, it’s reassuring that the WH is taking their talking points from Rush the Hutt.
