Trump said that to him 2 days ago. Not TODAY!!!! Gov cuomo said Trump should do more or the federal goverment should do more. Trump response was the state must do everytime in its power before the Federal government step in.
If Trump step in its the federal government and Trump is a champion of states gov before federal government.
Trump told him you must use all power you have that your state constitution give you and when you have no other choice the federal government (Trump) will step in.
What a Nazi right! Giving A Democrat governor a choice to utilize the separation of powers clause of the constitution before he steps in. What dictator does this?
As far as I can tell, he "mobilized" two Navy Hospital ships, which will not be able to provide assistance to anyone for weeks. He was begged by state governors from the East Coast to the West Coast to mobilize the Army Corps of Engineers to build field hospitals, which they do pretty well, and he basically said "Go fuck yourselves." The Mobilizer in Chief! How can you be so stupid? Didn't you actually serve in the military? Didn't you learn anything? Or did you just go to Stupid College after you were discharged. What a really dumb fuck you are. Go smuggle some more guns.
And Raper, you are evil. Of course what Trump said today is different than he said two days ago. He never says the same thing twice, because he has the memory of a piss ant. What surprises me the most is that both you and the Gun Smuggler appear to be so upset that you have lost control of your English language skills. The Gun Smuggler says "Trump has step up." "He enacted the defense production act." Not only has he done neither, but Gun Smuggler fails at elementary school English.
And the Raper speaks gibberish. You two should be ashamed to appear in public. Brand your foreheads with the letters STUPID and crawl back into your holes.
That is the scary part. All that power in the hand of one man. That is why Trump used it has his last resort. Good thing is he ain't no socialist and he ain't power hungry like Pelosi.
The DPA will give Trump dictatorial powers. Power even the Roosevelt who died in world war 2 could never imagine. The DPA will give Trump powers that even Hitler or Lenin never had.
The DPA gives the federal government unlimited power on what they need.
THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO GIVE UP LIBERTY FOR A FEW SECONDS OF PEACE DON'T DESERVE DEMOCRACY!!!!
Let him have enough power to destroy the EPA. Let him have enough power to demolish the White House Pandemic Response Team created by the Obama administration after the Ebola Crisis. Let him have the power to tear babies from their mothers at the Southern border and make them disappear. Let him have the power to destroy the Affordable Care Act. Let him have enough power to eliminate the food stamp program so that Americans can starve. Let him have enough power to eliminate all necessary regulations to protect the health and welfare of the American people. Let him have enough power to do whatever he wants when he wants until he has the power to actually help the nation obtain the medical supplies it needs to confront this very real crisis, and then the Gun Smuggler righteously screams that invoking the Defense Production Act will give the Fascist-in-Chief too much power. What bullshit.
Make America Gag Again.
Just a small policy difference, Gun Smuggler? Like Craig Fugate and Mr. Slavitt, Raper? Maybe you two should get your stories straight, so you don't puke all over each other.
Make America Gag Again.
If you don't see the factual point that the gun smuggler is saying then you have no basis whatsoever to claim you are a liberal.
Just say it you are a Socialist like Hitler and get on. I have no problem with you being socialist but what i do have a beef with is you claiming to be a liberal and yet here you are supporting a scenario where a President or any President can assume dictatorial powers.
it look like the conservatives in this forum and in America are the real liberals.
