It's not planned. It's incompetence.
Stop electing Republicans.
Troll much?

No city, county, state or country was prepared for a 100 year pandemic.

That's a seriously hillarious thesis from the OP.
Who knows where people come up with this stuff. Hillary Clinton has been in the national public eye for what, thirty years now? What has she ever done in that time to show that she's capable of staving off a global pandemic? Nothing that I've ever noticed.

It’s not the end of the Trump presidency but the half way point.

So if you want a one party system, pretty much a dictatorship?

Pretty much what Trumps idea is. Like running his companies. Play by his rules or you're out. Like some states not getting the equipment PPE devices it needs. You dont kiss up to him, he will see you pay. You cant rely on this man to make intelligent and logical decisions for the public.

What is the company you work for that you can play by "your own rules"? You self-employed? Or unemployed?

Before the media separated into factions, older people understood the nature of politicians for what they are.

You are blaming the pandemic on a political party?

People still can’t grasp that tax cuts ALWAYS lead to major recessions. It’s a pump and dump.

The economy was on the downhill slide before this chaotic approach to crisis management.

Inverted yield curve started over a year ago.

I'd much rather stop people from voting who have zero idea how economics and the markets work.
