Conservative columnist fantasizes about a White House that was smart enough to plan for coronavirus
Conservative Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin lambasted the White House for not only being unprepared for a pandemic but for now being unprepared for the aftermath.
“We have become so accustomed to impulsive, irrational White House pronouncements that it is sometimes hard to remember how every modern administration up to President Trump has operated when a new problem comes along,” wrote Rubin. “Identify the problem. Craft reasonable plans. Put someone in charge to implement them.”
She cited a plan outlined by the conservative Independent group ThirdWay run by former Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT).
Like nearly everyone commenting on the coronavirus crisis, they advocate testing being the most important piece of the puzzle in helping keep people safe. While social distancing is working, many people who are asymptomatic don’t realize they have the virus and are spreading it. About 0.5 to 1 percent of Americans have been tested thus far, which is over 1 million out of about 330 million Americans.
