I only had time to listen until he was talking about the tests, will listen to the rest later. He was right about the tests, however. If you can wait in line for a test than you're not sick and you won't get the test results back for a week because there are thousands of other people needlessly doing the same thing. And how many of those people who are asymptomatic are quarantining until the test come back, probably not many. If you truly are sick, however, and need to go to the hospital with real symptoms, your test will be high priority and you'll get it back within a couple of hours. It's hard to pump out tests quickly and accurately when masses of people are getting tested for no good reason.

Other countries have done it successfully.

So other countries are testing at the rate we are and results are back that day for every test? I haven't read about that.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - Duchess - 08-04-2020

Other countries have been doing it successfully for months. Google it.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

I did, I dont see thousands upon thousands of idiots lining up to be tested when they dont have symptoms like what we have here. We have fairgrounds open here for testing, you're not sick if you can wait in line for hours to be tested. To expect your test results to come back in minutes like the labs are magic is pretty silly.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - Duchess - 08-04-2020

The testing in the United States has been terribly mismanaged from the get go and it still is. It should have begun months ago but time was wasted by denying it was a thing and then calling it a hoax, etc. I don't think you can expect people to isolate for days or weeks waiting for their results. We need a national plan but we aren't going to get one with this administration. I think we'll still be sitting here exactly like this a year from now. 


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

So what plan do you have to get thousands upon thousands of people who aren't sick their test results back immediately? Is Trump responsible for the efficacy of all our labs as well? And I dont think it's unreasonable to ask someone who feels the need to get a test to quarantine until that test comes back. If you go get a test then you need to stay the fuck home if you're so worried about it.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - Rootilda - 08-04-2020

Duchess doesn't have a team of scientists and experts to ask for guidance and advice unlike Trump so why are you asking her how to fix it

I would have suggested they not throw out the pandemic response playbook left by the previous administration.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

Because she seems to think that there is a magic wand to speed up testing when we have to rely on humans at labs to gather the results and enter them into a database. Now if you go to the hospital with real symptoms then you will get your test back that day. But all these other thousands of people getting tested for shits and giggles, what is there supposed to be a magic test for them that other countries have that we don't know about? And you must remember that this team of experts were originally saying something totally opposite than what they are saying now about the virus.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - Duchess - 08-04-2020

Yeah, it really is so outrageous to have the expectation that our nation's leadership have some fuckin' competence. How DARE I!

 You think people waiting in line in 107 heat in Phoenix are there for shits and giggles?


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

Yes, when you are truly sick you go to a doctor or urgent care or ER. You dont wait in line at a testing site. When is the last time you were very sick and didn't go to the er or doctor, but instead had time to wait in line in 107 degree heat like it was Disney world?


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

All these people waiting at tests sites are either hoping they are one of the lucky asymptomatic people or just scared out of their minds and total fucking idiots because they have a stuffy nose or something. I've had the regular flu before and tried to make it out of the driveway to drive myself to the ER and couldn't make it. There is no way I could wait in line in 107 degree heat.

I can't wait either. I'm going to make it into a drinking game. I'll take a drink every time a Republican lies or shifts blame and responsibility onto a Democrat. Double shots every time Obama is blamed for Trump's troubles.


RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - sally - 08-04-2020

Roo and Duchess' team. The douchebag team. Poor guy went to a large BLM rally and now he's upset he has to wait for his test results even though he has no symptoms, you better stay your ass home now you little prick.

RE: THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY - Duchess - 08-04-2020

Not having any symptoms is irrelevant given there are so many asymptomatic people walking around infecting others. How hard is this to understand? Gawd. Everyone needs to be tested and needs their results in a timely fashion.
