    Beats me. Watching pols everywhere, I get the impression they wait until things get really bad before acting. By then, it's often too late.
    Amen.

    Trump needs to have a fire lit under his butt. What are you doing?

    He also said COVID-19 is a Democratic "hoax." He calls COVID-19 the "Chinese virus." He recklessly and repeatedly assembles his COVID-19 team on stage, packed in like sardines, to tell us how the government is there for us.

    He totally dropped the ball on testing.
    Too bad you don't pass that message to Der Leader.

    I’ve no ideal what else you want him to do that would have a measurable impact on this. I’m pretty sure you do not either.

    Politicize away if it makes you feel better I’m just not interested in reading it any longer.

    Extending unemployment benefits and paying for extended vacation and sick leave can be easily done. It may not be completely accurate, but we need to do something quickly because the virus increases exponentially. We also need to be spending our money as effectively as possible to those who are hurting the most and most likely to spend the money once they get it. But the worst thing the Congress can do is do nothing and I'd rather we have an imperfect bill than no bill.

    Haul off people gathering in large groups. Produce a lot more protective equipment. Stop talking about people going back to work next week.

    No he played partisan politics by calling the response and coverage a hoax

    He said it was a Democratic Party hoax.

    It's a short YouTube piece that reminds people of how unprepared we were.

    Trump handling of the virus now up to 60% approval according to Gallup, and overall approval ties with the highest of his presidency.
