Adam Schiff Says Donald Trump's Power Isn't Absolute 'But His Incompetence Is' After Coronavirus Briefing
By James Walker On 4/14/20 at 10:30 AM EDT
Rep. Adam Schiff said America would not reopen without "a plan to get the virus under control" and accused President Donald Trump of making "alarming" claims of absolute power.
The House Intelligence Committee chairman said Trump's "incompetence" was absolute in a Monday night tweet responding to the president's remarks at a White House coronavirus press conference.
"There is no 'reopening' without a plan to get the virus under control and keep it that way," the California Democrat tweeted.
"Trump's false claims of absolute power are alarming, of course. But his failure to scale up testing is unforgiveable and deadly. His power isn't absolute—but his incompetence is."

Something like..the stupido [tRump] is so thinned skinned that one can provoke him with a tweet--ay dios [sigh; prayer] when will this nightmare be over?
Bravo for Schiff!

I will have to put a yard sign next to the yard sign, with the definition of incompetence.
