Our fearless leader tweets no-context catch words in all caps after shaking hands with everyone at the press briefing yesterday
Love how this series of tweets so clearly shows that he's in a meeting he doesn't want to be in, but he's tweeting buzzwords because it's the most he can do to make it look like he's paying attention
One day we'll tell our grandkids about the pandemic of 2020, when the entire world was on edge, and we, an anxious nation, looked to our leaders for solace and resolve in the face of crisis.

Then, Donald Trump tweeted "SOCIAL DISTANCING!" and we just knew everything would be OK.
Can't stop thinking about how stupid this tweet is

Reporter: "Are there worries about a pandemic at this point?"
Trump: "No. Not at all."

Feb 26:

Trump: "We're going down, not up. We're going substantially down."

March 7:

Trump: "I'm not concerned at all"

Today:

Trump: "I've always known this is a real...pandemic"
Trump asked in January about whether or not he's worried about a pandemic: "No. Not at all. And we're -- we have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's, uh, gonna be just fine."
Trump on Feb 26: "I think every aspect of our society should be prepared. I don’t think it’s going to come to that, especially with the fact that we’re going down, not up. We’re going very substantially down, not up." whitehouse.gov/briefings-stat…

This is great.

I had a similar -- but not nearly as traumatic -- experience in Brussels about 15 years ago, junior year of college. I had been there for a few days with my best friend and two Australians we met on the bus from the airport, but they had all left the day before.
2/ I was going to go down in Italy the next day to meet another friend before going to my host family in France.

My only roomie that last night was a Lebanese man who called himself the Angel of Brussels and said God told him I would be the next King of Ireland.
3/ I went to sleep with all my bags on the bed, convinced he was either going to rob me or kill me, but when I woke up the next morning, he was gone.

With that, I essentially had the whole floor of the hostel to myself.

Trump had so much bad press for his terrible delivery during his Oval Office address that he's going to be teleprompter free today. Wheeeeeee.
And yet Trump also had bad press for his terrible ad libbing during his Oval Office address because he gave out bad information. Wheeeeeeee.
One might conclude from this that Trump should not speak. You would be correct.

C2E2 and ECCC are both almost upon us; big trade show season is officially underway. Unfortunately, so is flu season and, as a special treat this year, novel Coronavirus season.
Because my love of epidemiology and pandemic response is well documented, people have been asking me what they should do to avoid getting sick. The simple answer? Stay home.
And by this I don't just mean "skip the shows." I mean "stay home literally forever, see no one, touch nothing, quarantine yourself in a bubble." This is obviously not possible for all, or even most, people.

(THREAD) #Clearly, Giuliani was blindsided when the reporters called in about the June 7 meeting. It was all news to him b/c Trump hadn’t said anything about it. So G should have said: “First time I’ve heard about this. My client never mentioned it. Let me get back to you.”
1/ Instead, b/c Trump had never mentioned it, G went before the nation on talk shows and said: “There was no meeting, and Trump didn’t attend it.”
2/ That of course makes no sense. What he surely meant was: “I believe my client has told me everything, and he didn’t mention such a meeting, so he wasn’t at it even though Cohen alleges (reportedly) that he was, so there couldn’t have been a meeting.”
