You posted this part: “Respirators, ventilators, all of the equipment — try getting it yourselvesâ€
But you omitted this part: “We will be backing you, but try getting it yourselves. Point of sales, much better, much more direct if you can get it yourself.â€
Here again is your statement.Is this a bad response?
Brett McGurk retweeted this.
I do agee, this isn't the right answer.
You were repeating a tweet from a NYTimes reporter making the case that the heartless bastard Trump was telling States that they were SOL. But that is not at all what Trump said. You expressed your agreement that Trump's answer was not the right answer. You accepted the words of a left-wing journalist without investigating to find out what Trump really said.
A journalist said the words "wow" and that's some great sin??
And you called her a leftwing journalist. I do read Brett McGurk's words, law clerk for William Rehnquist Bush appointee, worked for 3 administrations, maybe straight through.
So, you are the one who is using a deceptive argument now.

Now, this has to be called a falsehood, I did not omit anything from the tweet, I was on the I-phone, maybe the NY Times article didn't get directly linked but that was contained in the tweet address.
So, that was there. That is false to put it mildly, the tweet does not include that technically. You try to accuse others of being deceptive, your argument is being deceptive.

This is reckless and insane. The most important job for a president is to protect the American people. Not encourage a free-for-all for precious life-saving resources. No planning to scale production, ensure resources are available in hardest hit areas? Unbelievable. #COVID19

That's the full tweet. I do not see where it includes the "We will be backing you" bit.
But does the "we will be backing you" even matter? Does it change things substantially? What does that mean? The articles say it took the governors back.
We use twitter here, perhaps if you object to it, you could start a petition for us to stop using it if you think there is something wrong with it.
And besides, this is cherry picking, I back Trump frequently daily here, for someone to push that idea. I didn't realize we were suppose to be close-minded to all.
Lastly, Julie Bosman, NY Times, "left NY Times reporter", another empty accusation. I had maybe heard of her, are there some articles one can point to that have this left wing slant and by the way, more name calling.
National correspondent covering the Midwest, @nytimes
. Sifting and winnowing.

Oh, yeah, she covers the Midwest, really can let go of her left wing ideas.... any examples on what she has written for the times??
This is the editorial board that largely comes up with views. That doesn't mean every reporter is that way.
This took more time to straighten out then the time it takes to write a post.
Cusswords too, I'm done here, you don't have a point.
