Cutting CDC funding, eliminating Pandemic Task Force, cutting off Affordable Care Act, dereliction of responsibility federally, blaming CDC and other countries, withholding PPE and forcing state and local governments and hospitals to fend for themselves. What a national disgrace. Get them the fuck out of there. They are useless and more importantly, detrimental to our survival.

After all, the US was kind to the third raters, long ago, when they were a first world country! (Or were they?)

(5,318 posts)that electing a bumbling crowd of self centered greedy ego trippers into high office wouldn't have some very serious repercussions later on?
Sad if you thought that!
