WRONG: Scarborough Claimed 'Yesterday, 1,000 Americans Died of Virus' in Trump's NYC
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/26/2020 5:36:26 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

You could call it a slip of the tongue. But it was deeply revealing of the fervor with which Joe Scarborough, and the MSM at large, are determined to condemn President Trump regarding the coronavirus.

Scarborough opened today's Morning Joe by reciting a litany of the overly-optimistic statements President Trump has made about the virus. Scarborough then said:

"Yesterday, in Donald Trump's hometown [New York], 1,000 Americans died of the coronavirus."

Joe’s memory is a little foggy, Mika has a headache.

Yeah, Scarborough corrected himself, though even his correction was misleading. But his “slip” was deeply revealing of how he and the MSM want to blame Pres. Trump for the coronavirus.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

It is actually DeBlasio’s and Cuomo’s NYC.

As to the number, just wait a couple of days.

We caught a break. Over 90% of the country isn’t even “in the epidemic”.

I don’t think Scarborough would have ever made this kind of mistake were it not for his all-consuming hatred of President Trump.

Today our city is celebrating the #LunarNewYear parade in Chinatown, a beautiful cultural tradition with a rich history in our city. I want to remind everyone to enjoy the parade and not change any plans due to misinformation spreading about #coronavirus.

Then on March 19th, THIS...from the same guy:

Mark D. Levine
@MarkLevineNYC
· Mar 19
This is what NYC needs by early April:

* 3m N95 masks
* 50m surgical masks
* 15k ventilators
* 25m each of:
- surgical gowns
- cover-alls
- gloves
- face masks

We make none of these things in NYC. We need the federal gov’t to mobilize production immediately.

Mayor Bill March 02, 2020 =>

Bill de Blasio
@BilldeBlasio

Since I’m encouraging New Yorkers to go on with your lives + get out on the town despite Coronavirus, I thought I would offer some suggestions. Here’s the first: thru Thurs 3/5 go see “The Traitor” @FilmLinc. If “The Wire” was a true story + set in Italy, it would be this film.

How is it “Trump’s NYC?” He doesn’t run either the city or the state. I believe the chief executives there are both liberal Demorats. WHy aren’t THEY getting the blame?

NYC has no industries the country needs. It is a drain on our resources. Anything it contributes can be moved to a better location.

“WHy aren’t THEY getting the blame?”

Good question. DOES NOT fit the narrative.
