This Pandemic is not something that is out to get Trump, it is real and it affects families from all walks of life, unfortunately, it affects the poor among us even worse as they can't get the same treatment nor they can afford to take all the precautions necessary to try and keep them safe.
We have for some time had the ability to apply new technologies to making it easier for the poor to live better, but we don't do that because we have a business-driven culture that prioritizes things that make businesses more money over things that are more affordable and efficient for people who spend less.
Then, instead of reforming the economy to make it easier for people to afford better with less money, the Democrats promote the idea of redistributing money and otherwise stimulating more growth with subsidies etc. that stimulate the status quo and keep prices up instead of doing what they should, helping people and business who want to serve people more affordably to do so by lowering their costs, fees, taxes, wages they have to pay workers, etc.
Quote:(nothing is guaranteed) But it is a human tragedy story affecting the whole world, the US, more than any other country in the world. I just wish Trump could have dealt with it as probably another other President would have in his shoes, but he stays true to form and his followers do too. He didn't cause it, but he never went after it like it was a serious crisis such as a 9/11 attack, he still hasn't.
The only reason you and others are propagating this idea of "the president should do more to . . ." is because it increases spending. If the president does more by making it harder for people to make money AND refuses to use government bailouts to compensate people for lost opportunities, you would want him to do less.
Face it, every criticism toward the president is geared toward manipulating the government to filter more money to the people.
Quote:He should have brought this country together and formed a plan of attack against the virus and worried about the cost later like we do in times of war. He has simply failed as a President of the United States in a crisis.
You can say the same thing about all the people and businesses, who can contribute their time, equipment, and supplies for free and only worry about reimbursement later once the crisis is finished.
Unfortunately, however, when people contribute everything they have to helping others, what sometimes happens is they run out of everything they have and they thus end up in a position of dependency that others then use to exploit them.
Quote:If he had gone after it aggressively with all our tools at our disposal, even if still we had millions dying, at least we could have been behind him. I would have forgotten everything else about his presidency if he would have done it. It's not like he didn't know, if he didn't, he should have known because he was warned way before everyone realized just how big the Coronavirus was. (not saying I would have voted for him, but I would felt safer with him as President is what I am trying badly to say.)
The main thing people needed to do was stay home and/or social-distance and they have.
There was no way for anyone to know whether this COVID19 is a scam designed to manipulate politics/economics. We can never know to what extent the circumstances that caused it to enter the human population and spread were artificially manipulated. You read articles explaining that it can't be genetically engineered, etc. but the simple fact is that IF someone is smart enough to figure out a way to make a pandemic virus and make it look natural, then it will be untraceable. It's like when you get hit by a sniper's bullet and no one ever knows who shot you and why because the chain of command that ordered the hit is completely under control.
