Our intelligence agencies warned Trump about this in January. He chose to ignore it and play it down. Now look where we are because he didn't take it seriously.
He didnt ignore it. He set up a task force to deal with it.
And Trump has done a far better job than that fool Biden would have done. Certainly better than the way the people in China were treated. Trump's leadership is not perfect, but who out there is doing better at leading their people through this? America is still looking pretty damn good compared to the rest of the world. Could have done without that whole crashing of the economy due to the coronavirus, but you certainly can't blame Trump for that... Unless you have full blown TDS.
I don't have your made up tds. Our country is panicking right now and need guidance. Trump has done nothing to relief our fears because he's incapable. Biden shows true compassion which we really need right now.

No one I know is in panic.
You dont need someone compassionate patting your head.

I don't see masses of people panicking. Most of my friends think this is way over the top and unnecessary. I don't know of anyone personally who is panicking, except some seniors who've had their retirements accounts ravaged. My father is very depressed by what has happened to many of his friends, and possibly himself. I worry about these people and what is going to happen to them financially. They've worked all their lives for their retirement, and to watch it crash so fast, over something so hyped up by the media is almost certainly gut wrenching.
If there are people panicking about the virus, than maybe Trump should go back to telling you this is nothing to worry about and everything will be fine in time, but you didn't like that either. Many folks like you said he was being irresponsible for not freaking people out.
If you think the masses are panicking, it's probably because you've handed your brain and critical thinking skills over to that idiot box that is pumping lame stream media propaganda in your head.
