Trump Tweet From TWO DAYS Ago on COVID-19

This is why Trump is going to have a very bad year.

Link to tweet

So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!

That was TWO DAYS ago. We are over 1000 cases today.

Trump will continue to make stupid comments that aren't going to age well in the rapidly changing news cycle.

Attention Bloomberg: Make an Ad that has Bagdad Bob reading Trump Tweets on the Coronavirus and applauding Trump for being such a positive thinker like Bob.
