Interestingly, Trump’s own 2020 budget contains a chart comparing the nation’s public health emergency preparedness before the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and where it stood in 2016 (why it stops with Obama’s final year is unclear). Before 9/11, the nation had a 20% ability to mobilize in response to a health emergency, a 5% ability to establish an incident-command system, and 0% storage and distribution capacity for critical medicines and supplies. By Obama’s final year, the nation’s preparedness on all measurements was 98% to 100%. That’s by the Trump administration’s own assessment.

Then Trump failed to use it.
Because it was Obama's?
Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.

The capacity is not enough for the biggest pandemic in our lives. It was a stockpile that would work until Trump grew it. he did not. He just bitched.
