President Trump adjusted his strategy against the coronavirus on Monday, tweeting his desire for Americans to endanger themselves and others by going back to work far ahead of what has been recommended by public health officials. But on Tuesday the president made clear that there's one thing he isn't changing about his approach to the outbreak: blaming his administration's incompetence on others, particularly New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.


During a Fox News town hall event in the White House Rose Garden, Trump ramped up his attacks on the governor, who has been a vocal critic of the federal government's sluggish response to the outbreak. In doing so, Trump said the quiet part out loud about how he views his relationship with states. "It's a two-way street," he said. "They have to treat us well, also. They can't say, oh, gee, we should get this, we should get that."

U.S. governors are left in the position of deciding whether they need to properly massage Trump's ego in the middle of a pandemic in order to receive proper federal assistance.

Trump saying "Be nice to me or I will fuck you over." People will die because this thin-skinned narcissist's delicate feelings were hurt.

I wish he would just quit dog whistling and just say "Hey, I don't care if your family dies I just want the stock market to do well"

He should hold a contest and the governor that sticks their tongue the farthest up his ass gets his undivided attention!

Imagine the country is attacked and the aid only comes to cities and states that got blown up if their mayors and governors kiss the ring and pay homage/don't criticize - even if the commander in chief is supposed to make command and preparation decisions to keep those municipalities from blowing up.

Like, George W telling NYC on 9/20/2001 that they won't get any assistance because Giuliani criticized the FBI.

So, states are getting left in the lurch because his ego wasn't sufficiently jerked off.

Splendid.

Fuck this motherfucker. What a terrible leader. And human being.

Imagine if Obama said this.

God, I want Obama back. A real leader.

This man is ranting about shit someone else did in 2015 when asked about what HE was doing last month.

Fun to see that Fox news reporter dig him about social distancing.

Secession time for California. No purpose in participating in and funding a federal government that is actively harming you.

The states that actually care about their people should all band together to help each other and totally ignore the federal government.

I can't imagine it because I don't think any other president in recent history would ever be shitty enough to say that.
