    So she was 4 days off from them 2 weeks.

    You GOP people are making it seem she said this like yesterday, when the ship was already there. That's fake news. She said this 10 days before the ship arrived!

    She's knows how to use Twitter. She scoffed and sighed and rolled her eyes saying it was nonsense and it would weeks before the ship would be ready and basically Trump was lying. It was the next week the ship sailed. She should wipe the egg off her face and admit she was wrong.

    I still see no problem of this woman being off by 40%.
    I mean. Donald wanted us to think about the just 22 dead by Corona on the 9th of march vs up to 90,000 from the average flu
    He's turned that 22 into around 220,000. That off by 10,000%. Yet you right wingers suddenly don't see a problem now.
    No need to get fired over... etc. Sure.

    Rachael Maddow can’t help spreading panic and fearmongering.

    So you admit that Maddow was wrong about the ship?

    post 130 says it. And like, so?

    Do note, she said this 10 days before the ship arrived in NY.
    And people here go at her as if the ship was already there.

    What do you mean?

    She could have said it 100 days before the ship arrived - the point is that she said that it wouldn't be there at the promised time but it WAS there.

    Not just being off but basically calling Trump a liar and her faux scoffing and exaggerated SIGHS.................she didn't know what she was talking about and claimed to have more and better knowledge than those in charge. She did a disservice to the people of New York and owes them an apology.

    She said it would take weeks, when it took 10 days.
    So you know. She's 40% off. You're making a massive deal out of this.

    Donald wanted us to think about the just 22 dead by Corona on the 9th of march vs up to 90,000 from the average flu
    He's turned that 22 into around 220,000. That off by 10,000%. Yet you right wingers suddenly don't see a problem now.

    She was off by 40%, about an arrival of a ship.
    Donald is off by 10,000%, about the amount of dead people.

    What does Donald owe the US, when she must apologize for such a trivial thing? Resign? lol

    She can spread her BS and then when the ship comes in she won't report it. Then the Libs just look away and close their ears. But if Trump says anything ever letter gets scanned under the microscope.

    Here's an example, I was looking for some of Obama's responses back when the Obama virus hit in 2009. Talk about mush mouth, where was the same energy for Trump showed on Obama. Reporters were all dreamy eyed.

    The left and MSM attacks Trump when he is relaying the information from the task force but Maddow makes up things out of whole cloth scaring the HELL out of New Yorkers and they excuse and defend her

    WEEKS as in LOTS OF WEEKS with he exaggerated SIGHS and shaking her head and rolling her eyes and saying it's nonsense that those ships could be ready an in port next week.

    Why don't you just admit that she screwed up royally making totally baseless statements she made up trying to make Trump look like a liar and a fool when actually that fits her. She caused huge unnecessary concern of New York and owes them an apology and how about a KUDO to the Navy and the administration for getting the ship into port and operating?

    It didn't happen in a week.

    I already responded to this that she was 40% off.
    Donald was 10,000% off. So you know...
    You don't seem to have a problem with being 10,000% off.

    How is the figure of "40%" being calculated?

    Why is it a problem? It just means that he's an idiot, but what problem did it cause?
