Most needed action is testing at a national level. In countries, where testing is widely available, this pandemic is subsiding. Testing is how a pandemic is identified, isolated, and other potential victims quarantined. Explains why other nations have finally got a handle on it. Thereby quashing their pandemic.

In America, where testing remains mostly unavailable due to inaction at the Federal level, only social distancing (actions at the state levels) have diminished this pandemic. Velocity is still increasing. But acceleration has slightly diminished in some venues. So the president declares it will end in a week. A 30 second attention span makes it impossible for him to understand the different between velocity and acceleration.

No problem. He is preaching to people who all but want to be brainwashed.

He refuses to admit his inactions are why we don't have necessary widespread testing that other nations have and have successfully implemented.

No problem. Just blame it all on the WHO. Who has Trump not yet blamed for anything? Well he did not yet blame 'The Who'.

I still cannot get on his enemies list. I blame him.

I was unable to find a single mention of hydrochloroquine in that article. Fake news?

This one makes me SO FUCKING ANGRY

While everyone else cancelled their extended family get together plans and just used Zoom/whatever, Ivanka/Donaldetta travelled from DC to Virus hotspot New Jersey to celebrate with her family and the whitwhouse is defendidng it saying it's no different from travelling to work.

There is nothing right about this

No Doctors or grocery store workers are doing this kind of travel for work -with their families.........

Since when have the pretty girls ever had to follow the rules. Next thing you know, there'll be college admissions scandals.

The Don has already declared himself king. He is above the law. Like Nixon, he said so. So they are also royalty. They also can do as they please.

There's only one King of the United States, HRH Garfield Goose:

Name:  King of the United States.jpg

The Don is a pretender to the throne. We'll look into this matter.

[excerpt]

Quote:
The POTUS and the Goose Who Would be King

… And King Garfield had a loyal puppet sidekick—Romberg Rabbit. I guess you could say Romberg was his chief of staff. Romberg remained by King Garfield’s side for the duration of his twenty-four-year television reign (no term limits!) The squatter, on the other hand, goes through chiefs of staff like water. I’m sure the squatter fervently wishes he could have such an unwaveringly loyal puppet sidekick, besides Ben Carson. ...

Having triggered this himself, it seems like Trumpy would be much more comfortable agitating from outside the government than attempting to help with a smooth opening.
