I just linked the first article I found, the quote is the quote. You can read 100 articles on the subject at hand I'm sure. I just think the guy is a dipshit for using a buzz word especially when you consider his actions specific to said recent buzzword.

I'm laughing at his use of a shock and awe buzzword that was used incorrectly. He could have said "this is an event of pandemic proportion" but that doesnt hit you in the feels, or garner the possible government assistance, that "this is a pandemic" does. This butt**** wont do shit about guns.
