1. Trump fired the pandemic response unit created by Obama after Ebola.

2. Trump cut CDC funding

3. During H1N1, 1 million people were tested within a month of the first diagnosis.

4. Stop Tweeting and do your job

For decades the @CDCgov looked at, and studied, its testing system, but did nothing about it. It would always be inadequate and slow for a large scale pandemic, but a pandemic would never happen, they hoped. President Obama made changes that only complicated things further.....

Just like Trump repeats and repeats and repeats his message (lies; no collusion, perfect call) we must be as relentless and repeat the truth. He must be called on his lies.

Obama must call his bluff and respond. This is the biggest and most dangerous lie he's told on Obama. Uninformed people will believe this and start blaming Obama for these deaths. Give a press conference reminding folks that trump disbanded the pandemic response team. This is dangerous and put's his life in danger.

Also media, do your job. Call trump out to his face about this lie.

An Obama press conference & infomercial, paid for by Bloomberg, on national TV Fox repeated over and over. What Obama did, what was in place until Trump dismantled it, and Trump's continuous cutting of the budgets of these organizations........

they should also give a daily updated picture slide show of all the Republican Politicians and administrators that subscribe to Trump's "everything is beautiful, no problem" propaganda, and are indefinitely "self isolating" themselves........

He could say that in the face of this immense public-health challenge, he realizes that his style of politics has failed him and the American people and he will turn a new leaf, listen to the experts and get to work fast on mitigating his failure. That would earn him so much respect, he might actually get re-elected. But the sad thing is he can't. He's actually a prisoner of his own nature, a wall that he himself erected and cannot scale.

Having kids home has and will affect at least half the workforce, who will now have that issue.

Companies throughout the country, I suppose, are now faced with some serious reality about letting their people work from home, and I'm suspecting layoffs will begin in retail, hospitality and other industries because of reduced demand for all but essential items.

Trump is guilty of gross criminal negligence.
