Don't you think he should have since he is our president? He is always passing the buck.

WhyMSNBC did not present any articles or programs on China pandemic in January, there answer is simple all MSNBC staffers were busy digging dirt on Trump bogus impeachment and creating fake news .

Liar

Trump is the greatest Liar , I have ever seen. He is a bad example to showcase in Christianity or Demcracy. He is an example of authoritarian leadership reminiscent of USSR, African despots, China and North Korea. He has deemed USA's leadership position in the world.

Why is it necessary to include a profile photo of tromp in your tweet?

It’s his responsibility to see it.

Liar liar pants on fire!

BS POTUS was told. Was he paying attention? Probably not. Blaming the delayed response on impeachment is BS,it’s not like he testified under oath,or obeyed subpoenas. GOP bootlickers pushing that have BloodOnTheirHands. Damn shame they can’t have their fn pep rallies anymore

'Russia did launch nuclear missiles at us, a bunch of people knew about it, but I didn't see it. NOT my fault!!!

Bull crap!!

Reading isn’t Donnie’s strong suit.

Well Trump never READS anything!!!

Lol surprise surprise it’s Ernest T

So much for ignoring experts and listening to Hannity, because Fox News is being sued for peddling false and inaccurate information about. COVID 19. HannityIsAFake. FoxNewsLies TrumpLiesAmericansDie realDonaldTrump

Oh really? Everybody is lying and committing fraud except...

He got problems with the truth this is how born and raised.

It’s all about his re-election campaign which is why he wasted 70 days in January, February and March denying COVID19 was a serious problem. Unfortunately, we are stuck with this misfit for another few months before we can evict him and send him to Mar-a-Lago for good.

then he close down planes from China, The media and democrats called him racist and a zenophobic we have screen shots of the comments made by democrats and media, China and the WHO lied and people died

More lies.

Something that important, makes no sense for trump not to see it!

Really? Another F in lie. If you are such a control freak how could you not see it, your face shows all the lies, no kidding any of us. GO GET SOME HELP, meds or madness

Impotus45Genocide

Lie

This is a lie

mouth openlies get out....

Soitwas the author’s fault?

So besides dementia, your eyesight is so bad you can't see straight?

Malarkey

LIAR...

If you took time to read stuf you would have seen it.

It didn't matter? Wow.

So there weren't any pictures? Straight to Barr's favorite shredder!

Yeah right....

My dog ate my homework excuse

Liar

LIAR!!😡

Does this mean his “staff” is withholding crucial, life and death information from the president? What other vital information has he missed?

Trump 2020

Perhaps if he spent less time golfing and more time doing his job, he would have seen it.

Next month I’m gonna tell GMC that I didn’t see my car payment. It doesn’t matter, I didn’t see it. So I didn’t care to pay it.

The stupidity of that answer, really the man is not right in his head...

45* is full of lies, and we intelligent people know that! realDonaldTrump DumpTrump2020

Yeah...he didn't know anything about a pymt to a porn start, either!

There would have been LARGE LETTERIG in RED stating READ IMMEDIATELY

BS

What the F is wrong with this man he can’t read really Buck stops with him it is his responsibility he needs to stop blaming everyone else

Lying like a rug!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Translation: Refused to see it & acknowledge it

liar in Chief

He didn't see it, not his problem.

When his advisers move from Fox News into the administration they actually lose access due to the lack of LED backlighting in real life.

BloodOnTrumpsHands

Incompetance is his new defence? Swell.

Trump 2020

He saw the ones from the DIA/DOD in November!

THE BS JUST KEEP ON COMING.

.realDonaldTrump is a BS flinger who childishly cannot take any responsibility for the EpicFailure of his COVIDー19 response. He cares far more about $ and power than he does American lives. Too bad the Senate didn't convict him when they should have. He has only gotten worse!

Won’t be long and Trump won’t know who Navarro is like Modly, Lev Parnas, Epstein, Sondland etc

Then your staff should all be fired ... but I don’t believe you .. you saw it.. you ignored it ...

This is his MO, folks; anything incriminating and he’ll say: I didn’t know about it/didn’t hear about it or didn’t know him. Press needs to call him out at this point rather than him sucking all the oxygen out of the room. We are enabling a dictator.

realDonaldTrump For someone to be on top of everything, someone who can fix it all by himself, you sure miss all the important things that matter! TrumpVirusCoverup

He is such a liar

The job of 2 operators on Titanic was relaying messages & warnings of icebergs to the bridge. at 9:40pm in April 14th warning of ice fields was never relayed to the Titanic’s bridge.

Criminal negligence

And he’s says it was a HOAX!

Another example of his incompetence. He is the a president, the person in charge. He spends more time sending petty tweets than reading his intelligence briefings. Shows his priorities. Do your damn job.

Too busy golfing and plotting his showboat trip to India.

Hilter reruns

Where does the buck stop?

Yeah I’m going to go ahead and call bullshit on that!

Of course you didn’t. What a liar

Think abt this: Navarro wrote a WARNING MEMO abt COVID19, staff read it yet realDonaldTrump didn't think it was important enough to read? And he's blaming states for not being prepared & the World Health Org? Trump's the most incompetent person in the planet! TrumpPandemic

He doesn’t fucking READ! Of course he never saw the memo. He was busy sitting around in his PJs watching Faux News fawn over him... realDonaldTrump LoserTrump

Even if he had seen it, it would not have mattered. He can't read.

That’s his defense and it’s not ok

Then he is not doing his job.

It was important enough that he wrote 2 memos, but Trump was not aware of the warnings? Nobody believes Trump.

I saw it coming mid January MSM Ignored the Story...WHY Focused on a Phony Impeachment Fantasy

Who believes him?

Too busy golfing and hosting ego rallies to be concerned about the real job at hand; worthless like his bank accounts

LIKELY TRUMP 'INTENTIONALLY DIDN'T WANT TO SEE IT OR HEAR ABOUT IT' ONCE 'HE HEARD ABOUT 'IT' FROM STAFF OR NAVARRO' B/C THAT WOULD CURTAIL HIS FINANCIAL OR PROFITEERING SCHEMES UNDERWAY.

Because he can’t read.

He never sees anything but he knows

He is lying

I call bullshit - then fire the staff that didn’t tell share it if that’s true. Let them explain if he knew or not

Not an acceptable excuse.

You know he saw it...he just doesn't read.

Why wasn’t the next question “there are people are your staff that would keep a memo like that, detailing the possible deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans, from you? WHY?

Oh! he didn’t see it :(

Who saw it? Who is blocking critical information from the president of the United States? Who is feeding Trump this BS about drug cocktail?

It had no pictures in it, so trump wasn't interested.

9kittens He’s always soooo full of it.

Please don’t post his gobbledygook

This fucking guy is a joke. How is this lunatic a president? Is this how a leader behaves? Always blaming others instead of being responsible for things as a so called leader. realDonaldTrump

Trump need removed from office immediately before he kills more people than he already has.

Telling Staff too afraid to do anything unless Trump reads a memo, which he didn't do. Ever

People say the dog ate it.

Crime against Humanity.

It was under the Vaping and the Buy more Face Tanner memos.

Because it wasn't written in bright pretty magic markers. Yep......I hate Republicans.

Of course he saw it... like everything else, realDonaldTrump is an ignorant Buffon, so concerned with only himself, he’s willing to let people die to make himself look better. He really could shoot someone and idiots will still support him.TrumpIsALoser TrumpLiedPeopleDied

This guy is a Liar Liar 👖 on 🔥

Why have advisors if you never read or even see a memo they write? Isn’t this a waste of $$$ and time?

Trump is a LIAR!

Stop putting him on TV!

His gut told him otherwise. 🙄

Trump has a piss poor excuse!

Right---- More of his lying mess

Must've been busy with rally or golfing. WorstPresidentInHistory

Why didn’t he see it? This is basic competency stuff. If his administration knew he should have know. It’s just that simple. Not knowing is just as big a failure. Why doesn’t he get pressed on any of this stuff? This is the most incompetent POTUS in 100 years. TrumpIsALooser

Corruption exist with mail-in ballots especially with ballot harvesting. But corruption is more so with no ID voting, getting rid of the electoral college, having super delegates, illegals voting, paying for Russian dossier, Super delegates, etc. all supported by the Democrats.

You are president. Why didn’t you see it? Isn’t that part of your job,to stay informed? Resign. You make things worse.

Almost forgot, Trump was playing golf.

Never his fault...he was that kid would break his neighbor’s window but always find a way to blame someone else! Even his father knew he was worthless & sent him to military school to get rid of him!

Since Trump only hired idiots, it's no coincidence.

lies

Veterans know: it happens on your watch, you own it.

Navarro memo meant nothing because Trump never saw it. Is he saying no one in admin counts for anything except him?

More incompetence from a raving lunatic, glorified salesman.

TOO BUSY TAKING THE BIGGEST MOST IMPORTANT STEP OF ALL he stopped flights from China AND THE DEMOCRATS WENT NUTS WITH THEIR RACIST AGAINST CHINA TALK

So this is his Benghazi then!

Implausible deniability

This right here tells me he DID see it but chose to ignore it. It's his tell. When he screws up he NEVER takes responsibility but claims he never saw, doesn't know, never heard. TrumpPandemicFailure
