@Monkey:
Transparent as they come lol.
Oh the irony. As soon as I saw the notification that you replied I knew it was going to be some sort of snide remark or condescending insult rather than anything even remotely resembling a substantive response. Talk about transparent!
@Lord:
lol at calling doing extremely basic shit "ideas", what you should be doing is blaming your government for calling it a hoax for two months.
Well if they aren't ideas then what are they?
I don't look to the past. What's done is done. What matters now is how we are addressing the situation currently.
What good does assigning blame to anyone do? I could think of other parties I'd "blame" for this mess before the Trump administration, but again, how does that help anyone through the circumstances they find themselves in today? We have to focus on what we can do now to save lives and ease financial anxieties.
@Ubiq:
Considering that in the past week, we've seen:
Hospital ship to New York! In four to six weeks and not for covid patients.
Five million masks! By mid-2021.
Millions of tests available! Still lagging behind nations a fraction of our size and still making it hard to take a test despite what doctors think.
This after deliberately slowing the rate of testing and calling it a hoax just to avoid people thinking badly of him, lying about dismantling the pandemic team, gutting CDC funding, refusing to take things seriously for weeks until the stock market started freefalling, sidelining career CDC officials for people who will just say nice things about him, and even lying about taking the test himself after being repeatedly exposed to the virus.
This administration deserves no credit for their response and no trust for any promises.
Eh, well I feel they do. Things could be a lot worse than they are right now if not for the actions taken over the past 2 weeks.
Nowhere did I say that our governments response was perfect (very few country's governments response have been), but it is heartening to see the actions being taken now to provide relief to the healthcare system and the average American worker.
