A fantsatic job considering they were predicting 200,000+ dead.

95% of the dead are people over 75 with pre-existing conditions. Way more than That many die with the flu every year.

Pretty darn good.

So unfortunate financially and medically.

US was so unprepared for this and lives would have been saved had efforts started earlier.

No, so you're a government employee?

Not sure what relevance that bears to record unemployment near the Great Depression levels and lives being lost on a daily basis.

Many are acting like mini-Dictators.
"Many are acting like mini-Dictators" Thank GOD no dem has ever done that!

I mean who would EVER appoint their BROTHER to a cabinet position or make your wife head of many OFFICIAL president issue. Why was obama overturned, some by a 9-0 vote, for bring a "dictator" and going around congress by the courts MORE then any other president for his EO/EMs?

What we need in the presidency right now is a quarterback — someone who calmly calls strategic plays under intense pressure. Instead, we have Donald Trump. And his instincts are perfectly wrong for a pandemic.

What is the difference between a cheerleader and a true leader?

They were just too anxious to move an agenda forward and the information and actions got all mucked up, thus the reason it can't be called the "China Virus" because they want people to forget that it originated in China and just blame Trump. Bunch of nonsense.

"At issue is a directive that Mr. Cuomo’s administration delivered in late March, effectively ordering nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients from hospitals."

States/cities run by Democrats had the highest number of positives and deaths, so why on earth would anyone want more Democrats in Congress or in the presidency?

Trump is blamed for the pandemic on how he chose or in this case not to deal with it or handle it or provide any leadership for the country. This all resulted in the governors having to come up with their own plan state by state instead of having a national rollout plan on how to deal with the situation where as of today there is still no plan.

He has always said it will just go away and every day since acts like it will and he hopes that it does.

For every day that everyone is talking about record number of cases it distracts from where he wants to be of talking about himself.
