Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic is one of the most catastrophic failures in American history. Throughout February and into March, Trump repeatedly downplayed the threat. Worse, Trump did not mobilize the government to increase testing capacity, stockpile protective equipment, or produce ventilators. Instead, he claimed the coronavirus would magically disappear by April.
It's not about the WHO, and less about blame. It's about the MONEY. How much is he looking to collect/conserve/cover up and where will he spend it instead? Follow the money... always, but especially with a narcissistic psychopath.
Judd, thank you! It's so hard to keep up with everything today in this constantly changing and information-saturated environment, but your daily newsletters really help cut through the noise and focus on the most important topics we should be paying attention to. I love how you directly link all of your sources so we can read it for ourselves if we want. Keep up the good work!
He has the media blazing his daily message in living rooms every where. Why the hell does this continue? Have we gotten one good piece of info from his briefings. I just can not longer watch his sickening me-ism filled rants and ignorant gibberish. The more you see him, if you are unintelligent, the more normal he becomes.
In my conservative area, the push back to the stay home and non essential war cry in Virginia is getting louder. Lansing, Michigan is a similar good indication of what the Trumpers are believing from this president.
His message of blaming everyone but himself has been part of his life since childhood I am sure.
Things are going to be tough for the next year or so.
He never stops. Miller must be pushing this because Trump isn't bright enough to think it up on his own.
I read yesterday, Trump apparently is talking about dismissing Congress because his judgeships are stalled in the Senate.
Wake up, America. There is nothing stopping this wannabe dictator short of November elections. By then, all bets might be off.
Hardcore, diehard Trump supporters won't be converted by anything mainstream media reports, but (call me Pollyanna) when he consistently goes off the rails, some in that percentage who still approve of his presidency have got to be having 2nd thoughts. We know he can't stay off "the stage," significant numbers have not only left but are actively working to defeat him (the Lincoln Project,) and I'm hoping for more. Inch by inch.
Well, now he has his talking points for the election (summed up in short, "IT'S EVERYONE'S FAULT BUT MINE!"), and his supporters on Conservative talk radio, Fox News and OAN will lap it up and spew it forth to the mindless supporters who will accept it without question. That will make fighting this election very difficult for the Biden campaign.
Thank you for another great article. I’d like to point out though that WHO discourages travel bans in response to epidemics because it leads to less transparency and countries being less likely to provide accurate information. In addition it makes it more difficult to trace the spread as people will be incentivized to keep hidden or lie about where they have been in order to get where they want to go. https://www.statnews.com/2020/01/31/as-far-right-calls-for-china-travel-ban-health-experts-warn-coronavirus-response-would-suffer/
Well simple. Remove him as mentally unfit and dangerous, eh GOP? There is a clause in the constitution that legally provides this way to remove mentally deranged Presidents.

My mantra remains:
Stupidity is killing America.
This only goes through March
Trump bullshit Coronavirus
Jan 21: "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China."
Feb 02: "We pretty much shut it down, coming from China."
Feb 26: "And the 15 in a couple of days is gonna be down to close to zero."
Feb 28: "Coronavirus. This is the new hoax... You'll be fine."
Mar 02: "They're going to have vaccines very soon."
Mar 03: "Not only the vaccines, but the therapies... another word for cure."
Mar 04: "We're talking about very small numbers in the United States."
Mar 06: “Anybody... that needs a test gets a test... the tests are beautiful."
Mar 10: "It's really working out, and a lot of good things are gonna happen."
Mar 12: "It's gonna go away."
Mar 13: "No, I don't take responsibility at all."
Mar 29: "If... deaths remain under 200,000, we... have done a very good job.”
Mar 30: "Buy MyPillow!™"

Well better surely to remove him but that ain't about to happen as you say.
Well simple. Remove him as mentally unfit and dangerous, eh GOP? There is a clause in the constitution that legally provides this way to remove mentally deranged Presidents.
It would be great if we could be more like New Zealand. I don’t think the comparison stacks up though.
