Yes, she made him promise to do something that he is “allowed” to do per some regulation. It is my guess, he was reluctant to say Yes to her question because of two reasons 1) He is a Trump sycophant and he has to get permission from Trump. 2) Because he is a sycophant, he doesn’t know how and can’t do his job.
I’m just going to leave this here because we are now in hell.
Herbert Hoover went fishing while the country sank into the Great Depression. Ronald Reagan didn’t give a shit when HIV/AIDS was killing gay men, but he only started to care when Rock Hudson, Reagan’s personal friend, fell ill.
When I was 17, I was in love with a 31 year old with two kids. My 57 year old economics teacher and friend of my mother called me sexy, and I wanted to lose my virginity to him.

Justin Timberlake has always been a straight up dillhole
And Justin Timberlake slut shaming Brittney to Barbara Walters. I’ll never forget that and how it was so accepted at the time and even now.
I just remember how much Britney’s virginity was played up, and subsequently the lyrics to Genie in a Bottle being obviously about heavy petting, and playing on grandma’s light rock station like it was no big deal. Xtina could get a way with a sliight bit more sexuality due to her being so “exotic”
In 2016, I thought to myself “I cant wait to see the shitshow when the next 9/11 or Katrina hits sometime in the next four years. This buffoon will have no idea how to manage an emergency.”
Once again, concerned Americans from the left and right were treated to a 4th grader giving a book report that everyone around him read but he didn’t bother reading in front of the class.

He has previously delegated himself extraordinary emergency powers, and I was guessing he might do such things as calling off the election, cancelling Congressional sessions, and so…
I cannot overstate how this has up-ended things on my side of the Atlantic. There is so much confusion about the travel ban. It seems to be the Schengen Area (which is why us in Ireland and the UK are exempt), but there’s no clear reason why.
Many American health experts keep saying that face masks aren’t any good for the general public, but the other thing that really differentiates South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan from places like Italy is the number of masks available for purchase by the general public. Taiwan even banned exports of masks so that both…
“A spokesman for Qiagen, a top supplier of the reagents, said the pandemic was “challenging our capacity to supply certain products” and that it would increase production in facilities in Germany, Spain and Maryland.”
Everyone who voted for this idiot needs to slink off in shame and never vote again. You clearly cannot be trusted with any important decision ever.
The Trump address was unsettling, but I didn’t hate everything he said in between his bloviating. But I still don’t think it’s drastic enough. Between the squinting and him sounding, hoarse (?), I’m glad it was blessedly short.
Set sail in September 2019? It appears the virus may have been in circulation longer than we think.
