I bought a pack of masks as a joke for a Christmas stocking stuffer, because the whole family had major colds and we were supposed to meet a new baby over the holidays. Welp.

Yes, China should not have tried to sweep this under the rug.

But the US has contacts and intelligence in China and many other countries. It's been widely reported that our intelligence systems knew what was going on as far back as last year, and that recommendations were made as of January.

The next question from a reporter when Pence tries to blame China is "Then why did you do a version of what China did? Why did you also try to sweep this under the rug"? There's no good answer to this. They're trapped in what they actually did and said now. "We didn't want people to panic" won't be good enough, because they also clearly didn't do anything behind the scenes to prepare. Whatever steps they take now, however well it's handled from here on out, Trump and his administration bungled this.

So her getting 3 million more popular votes is an epic loss?

On the pandemic, our leaders need to temper the medical community's natural propensity to ALWAYS BE WORST CASE. Always. Of course they will always err on the side of extreme caution to the detriment of all else.

So to say, "just listen to the scientific experts" is to be criminally naïve and IRRESPONSIBLE for the greater good of society.

So who do you listen to if not scientific experts like Dr. Fauci?

He (Obama) would not have had the courage it took to shut down the country, and I think the results would have been disastrous.
Trump has successfully reduced the growth rate of Coronavirus from 37% a day to 15% per day. As a result, our hospitals are able to handle the load while equipment is being manufactured and shifted around.
Without Trump, the 37% per day rate would have swamped our system, which would have increased the death toll as new patients could not be treated.
Obama is a cowardly opportunist for making his remarks.

Maybe Obama and his wife need to climb back in their mansion and keep their mouths shut.

LOL reduced the growth rate from 37 to 15.. You realize the larger the number the people that get it.. the less the % its still growing massively.. You prove that Trumpers (or at least yourself) can't do basic math..
