I don't expect it to get better any time soon, either.

I remember when the idiot (I can't even say his name anymore) was saying that doctors were banking on every single Covid case they diagnosed, the medical community were irate as hell. They had no PPE, it was being sold off by the "him and his administration", the idiot was throwing all of those super-spreader rallies, etc.

They were all so devastated dealing with this nightmare, yet "he" was doing flyovers in certain cities for them. It was insulting.

I really wish that when this Pandemic started that Obama was still in Office, it never would've gotten to this point with so many dead. It's a damn shame.
