The TDS is strong with this one.
Russian collusion truther and left-wing conspiracy theorist Rachel Maddow said barely over a week ago that it’s “nonsense” the Navy hospital ship will be in New York City soon.
“There is no sign that the Navy hospital ships that the President made such a big deal of — the Comfort and the Mercy – there is no sign that they will be anywhere on site helping anywhere in the country for weeks yet,” Maddow said 10 days ago on her show.
But Maddow was wrong. As usual.

President Trump on Saturday spoke at the departure the USNS “Comfort” from Norfolk, Virginia.
The Naval hospital was headed to New York City to help assist with the Coronavirus pandemic ravaging the state.
President Trump was beaming with pride and said the USNS “Comfort” is equipped with “12 operating rooms, 1,000 hospital beds, a medical laboratory, a pharmacy…two oxygen producing plants and a helicopter deck which will be used very actively.”
“This great ship behind me is a 70,000 ton message of hope and solidarity to the incredible people of New York,” Trump said, standing in front of the Comfort. “We’re here for you, we’re fighting for you, and we’re with you all the way.”
“It also bears our military’s greatest weapon of all, a crew of nearly 1,200 outstanding members of the United States Navy,” said Trump.
And the Naval hospital arrived in New York Monday morning to cheers — several days ahead of schedule.

President Trump has received praise for his swift action from Democrat governors Newsom (CA) and Cuomo (NY) yet the media continues to spread lies about Trump’s Coronavirus response.
