Chump's Go to Excuse--Keep people calm

[kairos12]

Lying to people to keep people "calm" will be the go to talking point used by President Bleach and his sycophants in the coming days, even today. Chump apparently had no confidence the American people could handle this information and not panic, classic projection actually. Here is a small anecdote from my life about giving information and keeping calm.

When I was a teenager I worked at a major public venue. This venue was attended by thousands of people, including families. One day we had an event that caused us to close the venue very early in the day. The decision was made to let people know what was happening (gas leak) and exactly why we were doing it. I remember quite clearly that people, even those with small children, took in the information and proceeded to the exits without panic or screaming. All they needed was the information. People acted responsibly and with caring to all.

No panic. Responsible behavior by all.

President Bleach never gave the American people the chance.

Disgrace.

1. Trump to America: Remain calm! Die quietly! I'm golfing here!

[jayfish]

4. "Remain calm! Die quietly!"

Is that your own? It's brilliant! You should put it in your sig and post it everywhere you can.

[BKDem]

6. Thanks. Every once in a while, I'm articulate, often accidentally.

14. I Just Used It Elsewhere.

If you object I will remove it.

15. Feel free.

7. other than the fact that trump is an apathetic callous narcissistic sociopath ...

don't forget Trump had nowhere to go...he had unilaterally dismantled the pandemic safeguards Obama put in place...he couldn't scream fire but because the sonofabitch defunded the fire department, emptied the pumping stations, and gave the hoses to Russia (figuratively speaking)...this is all on Trump...

9. This has been a spectacularly comprehensive failure...

...a failure on every level...and it’s all Trump. Not the little prick Kushner. Not Pence, the CDC or Fauci. All Donald. And it wasn’t just simple neglect. Everything he could do wrong, he did do wrong.

2. But they didn't...they went full panic mode for the maskholes...

screaming about "freedumb" and shit.

3. Sure he doesn't want people to panic

That's why his election campaign is running non-stop ads telling America that antifa is burning and looting cities and hordes of black people are going to invade the suburbs and rape white women.

He's just trying to keep everyone calm.

5. The house is on fire, go back to sleep

People needed this information to keep safe, this isn't like a fear that people would irrationally have. All he cared about was the economy and now 195,000 people are dead.

8. "I didn't want to hurt my reelection campaign by having the stock market go down"

Come on, we all know that's what he means.

10. Trump serves chicken shit sandwiches and says it's chicken salad.

The best chicken salad ever. All thanks to his bold leadership. Fuck, what a loser.

[malaise]

11. Except that he wasn't trying to keep people calm

he wanted to reopen the churches for Easter Sunday, he opposed masks and wanted people to get back to work.
He should be locked up for genocide

12. "Demoncrats will bring riots and death to your suburbs. If you take your guns across state lines

and shoot people, I'll praise you as a hero! Demoncrats are hiding in mailboxes to snatch your guns and eat your babies. I am only saying this to help you stay calm. We'll remove the mailboxes!"

[tenderfoot]

13. So he's basically treating American citizens like they're a bunch of cucks and snowflakes
