^ If you got your information from more reputable sources other than Rachel Madow & Co, and the 24/7 Trump-hating CNN, you’d know your accusations are false. Trump did not call the virus a hoax, but rather the Dems accusations that this was his fault (as they claim everything negative in the universe to be his fault) a hoax. That’s already been fact checked multiple times and even the Washington Post gave Biden 4 Pinocchios for claiming that.
Further, his shutting down of travel from China very early on is credited by medical authorities with saving many lives...despite him being called xenophobic by some for doing so.
The lack of testing kits predates Trump and has existed for decades. The previous administration had 1,000 deaths from swine flu before that President said boo. I’m sure you were very vocal back then too...not. The fact is once faced with this long standing shortage and the need for more, Trump mobilized an unprecedented partnership between government and private industry to rectify that. Kits are now being produced at the rate of 400,000 per week with Roche producing most.
And of course your generalization of “the American public’s disdain for this POTUS” is yet another inaccurate and gross generalization. Opinions on him are quite divided and he’s likely to win re-election.
The misinformation is stunning and governed by nothing more than a vitriolic hate.
The bottom line is that until China gets its act together in preventing the conditions in its country that led to this pandemic, worldwide pandemics will continue to be unleashed on the world. Hopefully you’re aware of the fact that this is not China’s first unwitting release of a widespread and dangerous virus. It’s happened before. Your disdain for Trump might be better targeted on the country whose government is responsible for the world’s current misery. I just hope politicians on both sides of the aisle have the brains to pull back antibiotic manufacturing to this country. Our huge dependence on China for essential antibiotics is both foolish and dangerous.
Oh, and Scott, would you like me to provide you with a link to every post I’ve made since joining TMC? You’ve only given me a thumbs down on my last 9, regardless of subject, since my post that your quoting. Ah, hate is such a poisonous thing. Lighten up my friend, lighten up.
Have a nice day.
