We should not be going through this C-19 hellscape now. I hope all those Trump voting mother ...

... fuckers are happy now because nothing tastes sweeter than "liberal tears."

Trump fired Obama's Global Pandemic Response Team whose job it was to be on the
look out for exactly what we going through now with C-19.

Somebody or somebodies stopped the funding for a coronavirus vaccine (SARs) in 2018.

In late Jan./early Feb. of 2020 the Seattle Dept. of Health and the University of Washington found a case
of C-19 and reported it to the Trump run CDC and they were told to stop testing.

Trump turned down the W.H.O. C-19 test kits which were critically needed. The rumor is that he wanted
to make money by selling his own C-19 test kits.

Trump, Fox, and the republicans told us time after time that C-19 was a hoax. And then did nothing to
prepare America and the world for the coming wave of illness and death.

As per me in my little house in Columbus, OH I am worried sick about my son, his wife, and my
2 1/2 year old grand daughter because they live in a condo where people are stacked on top of each other,
they want to move in with her parents in a larger detached home for the duration but they have to
get her step dad tested for C-19 first ... he worked in hospitals and flew around the country ... but
they can't get him tested, and my elderly mother is sheltering in place in her home and I am trying to
support her and keep her in the house. BTW my little landscape biz (native plants) is kind of D.O.A.
right now. If the virus finds me and I die so be it but I am worried about my family, friends, neighbors,
DU people, and my lab puppy.

God damn those Trump voting mother fuckers .... they helped to keep it close enough so that Russia
could steal the elections for Trump and many other races too. Russ Feingold was @ a 90 to 95%
of winning his race in Wisconsin for the U.S. Senate.

And please don't tell me with a President Hillary Clinton we would not be so far up "Shit's Creek."

God Damn we should not be going through this crap right now.

safe

I share your frustration and anger. We need something, anything, at this point that resembles a working government. I don't think we have it, because of how the Trump admin is handling this as a way to make more money for themselves.

Trump knows, as we know, that he cannot do empathy unless someone carefully scripts it for him. Even then it’s a stretch.
Part of the greatness of Obama was his empathy. You could see he felt and cared deeply about things. I don’t believe in miracles, but what Obama did after the Newtown school shooting was close just because of how he was able to connect with all the families. Trump doesn’t understand that kind of caring and it absolutely burn him up that he’ll never be better than Obama in that, or many other respects.
Trump knows if he had tried to answer that question the way it was asked he would have come up short. People would have pointed out how inadequate he was compared to Obama and, even, W (a crappy President to be sure, but clearly someone with deep feelings).
We should never have elected someone so damaged as Donald Trump to be President...and we wouldn’t have, but her emails.
