    The Obama Admin did have a plan. It was the office of Pandemic Response which Trump closed.

    It bewilders me why Trump even needs to get up and say anything every day. He supposedly put Mike Pence on this...and then continues to get up there every day and spout mistruths and idiotic statements. I don't like Pence, but let the man do his job and go back and watch the news or something.

    He just can't let anyone else have the spotlight...he's too big of a narcissist to allow that and doesn't realize that he's screwing things up more every day.

    It kills me that he's our president...how could anyone support this doofus or continue to support him. He doesn't represent anyone's interests but his own and he has zero leadership ability other than money. If he hadn't been born into money, he'd be dead or homeless at this point.

    Trump was able to go 1-2 days without reverting back to idiot/shithead form. There's a reason why Dr. Fauci is no longer able to speak.

    If the death rate keeps climbing, and that video of the Florida Sprang Break Krew leads me to believe it might, nobody is going to be distracted by "chinese virus" stuff.

    Did Trump say WHEN the virus would magically go away. Did he say something about July or August?

    It wasn't not Hillary Clinton's fault... she didn't vote for trump. In fact, she warned us about him... and still people went in that voting booth and pulled the level next to his name. If you want to point a finger of blame... they are the ones to point to.

    Actually she is a big part of the reason Trump won.... The hate for her was crazy... not just from Republicans... There was a lot of Democrats who either said they would vote for Trump or not vote at all....

    The other part was Trump tap into the hatred for Washington and Racism...

    And it’s Clinton’s fault that so many people hate her? Much of the hate towards Clinton was based on things that weren’t even true. Uranium One, Benghazi, Pizzagate, that her health was failing, etc.. Also somehow blaming her for Bill Clinton’s infidelities.

    Clinton is to blame for not campaigning more in the Midwest and for not focusing more on what she was going to do as President than just on Trump. But to blame her for Trump , especially when she got millions more votes than him doesn’t do justice to her or the history of the 2016 election.

    Also let’s not forget Comey deciding to publicly announce reopening the investigation 10 days before the election only to close it days later.

    I was wondering how long before they clamped down on Fauci his honesty was contradicting Trump multiple times a day.

    On what grounds? Trump is president today cos a lot of people, who should have known better, supported and voted for him in the GOP primaries and in the general election. Unless Hilary voted for Trump, she cant be held responsible.

    The only people responsible for the terrible situation we are in today is each and everyone that voted for Trump at any point, those that voted for all the enabling GOP members, and of course the enabling right wing media.

    I pray they all learn in the harshest way possible that elections have consequences, cos we are all now paying for their poor judgment.

    Not only tests but other medical supplies. Trump is playing catch up.

    The 2016 election was a damn if you do or damn if you don't election... I don't like Trump, but the fact is... Trump hit the perfect storm with the perfect scenario....

    If Hillary would have won she too would have gone thru the impeachment process...

    The "Damned if you do or damned if you dont" is a silly excuse given by those who helped Trump get into power by not voting against him.

    There was no perfect storm beyond the ignorance and poor judgement of the many in the US electorate, as evidence by how so many of the bad politians manage to get in and remain in office

    The basic truth is that Trump shouldnt have won even if he was running uncontested on any platform. He is just totally unfit for the position. I really cant remember any other candidate that could have been worse.

    When all is said and done, the moment that the GOP failed to impeach Trump will likely be remembered alongside similar historical failings like the allies failure to check Hitler.

    Can y’all necrobump a 2016 HRC thread if you want to beat that horse corpse?

    here and now, we can has pandemic and fat, dishonest CEO to try to see around.

    I hate that Fauci, who inspired trust, is muzzled.
