Trump to order meat processing plants to stay open

President Donald Trump is expected to sign a five-page executive order under the Defense Production Act to compel meat processing plants to remain open amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Trump had highlighted the order during an Oval Office meeting with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis that was opened up to reporters.

"We're going to sign an executive order today, I believe, and that'll solve any liability problems," Trump said on Tuesday.

The President is expected to sign the order after some companies, such as Tyson Foods, were considering only keeping 20% of their facilities open. The vast majority of processing plants could have shut down -- which would have reduced processing capacity in the country by as much as 80%, an official familiar with the order told.

By signing the order, Trump will declare these plants as a part of critical infrastructure in the US.

You do realise intercourse has a meaning beyond sex right?

Yeah but no one actually talks like that. He is just too dense/old to realise it.
Just like he likes to sniff young girls, he is just creepy. Creepy Uncle Joe.

Nope. It's 'economic interaction'. He was trying to communicate the importance of collaborating between countries. Interaction is a far better word. You talk about 'interactions' between countries not 'intercourse'. Good grief.

The english language can use different words to mean the same or similar things, we even call them synonyms.



Good grief

A politician should be clear in communication. His wording was clearly ambiguous (note: 99.9 percent of humanity would have associated intercourse with sex). Given Biden's long history of gaffes, on the balance of probabilities, this seems to be a gaffe. Accept it and move on!

And you apply the same standard to Trump?

Interesting because I haven't seen you call out a single one of Trump's hundreds of 'gaffes'.
 
Chris_the_Brit said:
Probably, yeah. Most prominent politicians the world over are gaffe-prone. Just part and parcel of being in the public eye.

Noooooo pal not like these two imbeciles. That is a false equivalence. There is a line between gaffe and idiocy and incompetence. Both of them cross that line. Almost all others in the public eye don't cross that line.

BDS :ROFL: :ROFL:

Sorry it's way too early to start calling things like BDS, but it just shows how desperate you are to make something up because you actually do have TDS and hate that fact :laugh:

I think you’re going to find that any accusation you can level against Joe Biden already applies tenfold to Donald Trump. Remember that Faustian pact I was talking about earlier?

Where did I say Trump isn't gaffe prone? We're talking about BIDEN here.
 
Chris_the_Brit said:
Have you honestly heard anyone use that term before Biden used it? ;)

At the very least, it cannot be considered 'every day' or 'common' speech.

I have definitely heard it being used before, "political intercourse" and "social intercourse" , whilst its not common it doesnt mean its wrong. So Biden used an uncommon phrase, hardly news :cautious:.
