We should not be going through this C-19 hellscape now. I hope all those Trump voting mother ...

... fuckers are happy now because nothing tastes sweeter than "liberal tears."

Trump fired Obama's Global Pandemic Response Team whose job it was to be on the
look out for exactly what we are going through right now with C-19.

Somebody or somebodies stopped the funding for a coronavirus vaccine (SARs) in 2018.

In late Jan./early Feb. of 2020 the Seattle Dept. of Health and the University of Washington found a case
of C-19 and reported it to the Trump run CDC and they were told to stop testing.

Trump turned down the W.H.O. C-19 test kits which were critically needed. The rumor is that he wanted
to make money by selling his own C-19 test kits.

Trump, Fox, and the republicans told us time after time that C-19 was a hoax. And then did nothing to
prepare America and the world for the coming wave of illness and death.

As per me in my little house in Columbus, OH I am worried sick about my son, his wife, and my
2 1/2 year old grand daughter because they live in a condo where people are stacked on top of each other,
they want to move in with her parents in a larger detached home for the duration but they have to
get her step dad tested for C-19 first ... he worked in hospitals and flew around the country ... but
they can't get him tested, and my elderly mother is sheltering in place in her home and I am trying to
support her and keep her in the house. BTW my little landscape biz (native plants) is kind of D.O.A.
right now. If the virus finds me and I die so be it but I am worried about my family, friends, neighbors,
DU people, and my lab puppy.

God damn those Trump voting mother fuckers .... they helped to keep it close enough so that Russia
could steal the elections for Trump and many other races too. Russ Feingold was @ a 90 to 95%
of winning his race in Wisconsin for the U.S. Senate.

And please don't tell me with a President Hillary Clinton we would not be so far up "Shit's Creek."

God Damn we should not be going through this crap right now.

there were almost 100 million voters who sat home and did not vote. I think a vast majority of the felt that there was no way a narcsstic asshole like trump could ever win, so the didn't bother. That isn't going to happen this time!

When this is all said and done, I hope there will be congressional investigations.
How did the most powerful country in the world get caught flat footed on testing?
Smaller countries are doing a better job of testing than we are. I might be wearing my tin foil hat here, but have a feeling that this is not a mistake, it was by design.

For 2 reasons, Trump did not want testing because as he said " did not want the numbers to go up". I think there was willful neglect to keep the numbers low on purpose.

Secondly, I think they decided to profit off of this. They were going to look out for big business once again and make money off the businesses developing a test. Therefore they did not want to buy the test that was already available. I mean he's taking advice from boy wonder Kushner. These people only see things in $$$$. Not the effect on human lives.

It is just not making any sense, even with the ineptitude of this administration that we were so unprepared with testing. I say it was willful for their own benefit.

By giving them a middle finger and a paltry check they'll be more shocked and pissed then we are. trump's getting ready to screw us over, then funnel a lot more to himself and the wealthy, again. When they give us little of nothing we'll be looking at hitting very close to being in a depression, not a recession from it.
