The Trump Pandemic

[Cunt]

What part of "I don't want or need your respect" don't you understand?

You should, my respect is sought after by nearly all Africans. Well, the ones who aren't busy fighting hippo's and giant rinos.

What would be cool: a class action suite from 90 000 families against Trump letting in a Chinese virus.

[Cunt]

How did he fail to infect most folks in Japan? Did he make a backroom deal with their lead team? Or did he just fail to get the virus in there?

Do class-action suits pull the strategy of 'cast a wide net'? Will the suit be only against Trump? Or will his team, the WHO, CCP and Japan be named?

[Tero]

The government is after you!

Sometime before election Trump must ban most testing and all quarantine.

Sometime before election Trump must ban most testing and all quarantine.

He can't.

The responsibility for authoritarian measures seems to be at the state level, with some states being highly restricted, and others being lax as fuck.

[Tero]

I mean ban by Trump methods. Withhold all aid to states that "don't open" etc.

[Cunt]

Everything is Trump's fault. Even if a state dodged their responsibility for emergency preparedness, or if a state already had a huge deficit, because of shit management.

[Tero]

Absolutely. Just like Trump tweeting everything was Obama's fault when he was president.

[Cunt]

So how did Trump fail to ruin Japan with his virus?

Did he miss?

Goddam Enemies of the People, failing, horrible Fake News.

'If the pandemic-preparedness cupboard was bare, it was Trump's doing'

Woe is Donald Trump. The long-suffering, misunderstood president just can’t make the world understand what a raw deal he got. The pandemic was China’s fault. Or was it the World Health Organization’s fault? One thing we know for sure, the lax U.S. response was President Barack Obama’s fault.

“We inherited a broken, terrible system …,” Trump told reporters on April 18. “Our cupboards were bare. We had very little in our stockpile.” That was Trump’s attempt, frequently repeated by the president and recycled in White House presentations, to lay responsibility for the inept pandemic response at Obama’s feet, as if three years in office were insufficient for Trump to repair all the supposed damage his predecessor wrought.

Except it’s a lie of colossal Trumpian proportions.

We’ve taken the time to dissect Centers for Disease Control and Prevention budgets from the year before Obama left office all the way to the present. Trump can lie, by the numbers cannot. Obama left office with an unblemished record of building up the nation’s pandemic preparedness. Trump systematically sought to dismantle it.

...

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.

If the cupboard was bare, it’s because Trump swept it clean.

Most Africans haven't even heard of Lesser Trumpistan, even less care for the respect of a Rightwing Nutter from some hick town in the cold North.

L'Emmerdeur, the fact that you are quoting an article that says bad things about trump is proof that you suffer from Trump Delusion Syndrome and therefore said article is not worth reading. No, Lemmy there is no circularity in my argument. Well, there actually is, but that is the exact feature that makes it bullet proof.

People forget that Trump is a very stable genius.

[Svartalf]

I prefer a volatile positive genius than a stable one that prvisibly causes shit.

Good of you to speak for 'most Africans'. You must be SO IMPORTANT there!
