While the spread of the novel coronavirus has been aggressive around the world, much of the profound impact it will have here in the United States was preventable. As the American public braces itself for the worst of this crisis, it’s worth remembering that the reach of the virus here is not attributable to an act of God or a foreign invasion, but a colossal failure of leadership.

Trump was months faster than Obama .....
From another post here
So the guy who waited 6 months to even declare a national emergency for H1N1 after it had already infected millions of Americans and killed more than a thousand...is smearing the president who IMMEDIATELY banned travel from China (which Democrats opposed and smeared him as racist for while demanding that he focus on the flu instead), expanded screenings, forced quarantines, established a coronavirus incident management system, and started work on a vaccine...as not reacting quickly enough?
"Even after the H1N1 pandemic that claimed as many as 18,000 American lives according to CDC estimates, Obama's response to the Ebola pandemic later is his presidency was similarly wrought with problems--so much so that even the Obama White House and the CDC acknowledged there were multiple “shortcomings” in the administration’s response. Those shortcomings may have been the result of Obama axing the White House pandemic response office in 2009, which was reinstated in 2016 specifically because of his administration's poor response to the Ebola pandemic."
Barack Obama Falsely Accuses Trump of 'Ignoring Warnings of a Pandemic'
By and large, tRUMP is unfit to be a member of the human race. The presidency is just academic.
Please leave your Trump 2024 signs in your yard. That way, my dog will know where to take a dump.

to paraphrase badly [you go into war w/ the president you have, not the one you want]...
IMHO trump did fumble the ball initially, but he won't be graded/judged by how this started out, but how it finished.........
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
Hello floridafan,
If only we had handled this like Taiwan. Wow. They really got a grip on it.
They were prepared and acted early.
They went to school on the SARS outbreak and learned their lesson.
Too bad we could not have acted so decisively instead of giving it the ho hum, go-through-the-motions-and-pretend approach.
We had drills. What was that? Meaningless?
