Maybe if Trump hadn’t banned travel directly from China, but leaving the door open elsewhere. Down playing the seriousness of the illness, even though Trump knew early on how easy it was to transmit. By not shutting travel into the USA down everywhere, allowed people to come through mainly Europe from China. With most making a stop at JFK in New York, maybe, just maybe, if Trump hadn’t forced everyone trying to get back to the states to arrive in New York, then just then, perhaps New York City wouldn’t have become the hardest hit city with Covid.
Has any bad thing happened in the world during the past four years that wasn’t Trump’s fault? Did mandating COVID patients to go into long-term care homes have nothing to do with the deaths?
Cuomo’s handling of long term care facilities wasn’t great, especially in the early part of the crisis. It’s interesting how Ramirez & others are oblivious to the fact that DeSantis & Florida did far worse, despite having much more knowledge & time to prepare. So did a lot of other states, both red & blue.
I’m disgusted by the GOP Leadershit’s Big Lie claims.
I’m disgusted by Marjorie Taylor Greene’s continual and recurring calls—with seeming impunity—for someone, anyone, to assassinate House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and I’m disgusted by Greene’s spread of absurd, grotesque, preposterous, and ludicrous QAnon far-right conspiracy theories alleging that a secret cabal of Satan-worshiping, cannibalistic pedophiles is running a global child sex-trafficking ring and is plotting against former U.S. president Donald Trump, who allegedly has been fighting the cabal.
I’m disgusted by the dim-witted, ignorant, and naïve House GOP Leadershit Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for his indecisiveness and his chronic extemporizing in all matters dealing with Marjorie Taylor Greene.
I’m disgusted by the GOP-in-all-but-name Democratic West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin whom Miserly Moscow Mitch McConnell has relentlessly and politically sodomized for four years. Manchin’s priorities have become those of McConnell and the GOP Leadershit, i.e., “aspire publicly for hands across the aisle bipartisanship”—code for “dig in your heels at every possible opportunity to cripple, frustrate, and sabotage every Democratic effort to rescue our nation, our democracy, our republic, our economy, our health, and our people from the enormities gleefully imposed by Trump et al. for the past four years.”
Manchin is a Quisling, a fifth-columnist. He has effectively Pledged Allegiance to the GOP Leadershit and withdrawn his Pledge of Allegiance to our Flag and to our Republic.
So funny watching all the liberals trying to dance around an issue they can’t possibly win. After the Benghazi disaster, Ramirez drew Hillary as a witch dancing on the graves of the four diplomats killed through her negligence. There are none better than Mike.
I believe this puts his brother in a precarious situation. Working at a major news network. whom do you believe,Chris? The ATTORNEY GENERAL or your BROTHER? What you BELIEVE, YOU’LL REPORT!
People who insisted that it was a hoax or the common flu do not get to criticize those who have actually been fighting against this pandemic. But they are starting they campaigning against Cuomo already it appears.
hey mikie….shouldn’t that be your fearful leader in the pic, he only is responsible for 400,000 deaths…oh i forgot…he can’t whistle…( heck he prob can’t spell whistle…)
Let’s talk about responsibility for a moment. Republicans refuse to take any responsibility for the murdered Capital police man that the Maga’s killed. Fox ‘news’ shorted the coverage. Nancy Pelosi paid tribute, the Maga’s wanted to murder her also, along with Mike Pence. Republicans refuse to acknowledge that Biden is the president, not an enemy. Republicans refuse to pay for the lives they destroyed with totally irresponsible covid spreading, they should be sued for crimes against humanity.
More than 20 nursing homes are currently under investigation based on reported conduct that occurred during the first wave of the pandemic in the spring, according to the attorney general’s office.Aaah yes, private enterprise is squeaky clean. It’s all the government fault. You want your cake and eat it too. You want small government when it suits, and the ability to blame government when private enterprise falls in a heap.
Truly, there is plenty of blame for getting it wrong, in nearly every statehouse, and definitely at the federal level. Not to mention all the absolutely insane anti-masker “freedumb” caca (See Payne’s entry today).
PS: A judge ruled (yesterday?) that in Oregon, prisoners must be vaccinated ahead of the elderly. Though not ahead of teachers (who are mostly already done w/ their first jab). Because allowing them to be infected when they have no way to self-isolate is “cruel and unusual punishment”. I actually agree with the point, but think they should equally share the pain of not being able to get a jab because there isn’t enough vaccine available yet.
It is invalid to claim that we can not blame Trump for any disease outside of the United States. He disbanded the White House team that was designed to contain the disease at it’s source. After that, the virus was totally disinterested in borders, and wandered around as aimlessly, but much more effectively than Trump does.Trump says that “No one could have seen this coming” referring to the pandemic. Well, someone did.In December 2014, Obama warned the United States:“There may and likely will come a time in which we have both an airborne disease that is deadly,”. And in order to deal with that, they sat up a White House Pandemic response team, which had clinics worldwide, including 44 people in the area of China where Covid 19 originated. The plan was for them to spot the disease and then to send enough people to track it and confine it to the area of origin. They managed the Ebola outbreak with only one American death.To help the incoming administration be better prepared to fight future pandemics, officials under President Obama prepared a 69-page playbook, written by Obama’s National Security Council, which detailed strategies for responding to a potential pandemic. Outgoing Obama administration officials briefed Trump’s top aides on the potential dangers of a pandemic.But the Trump administration ignored the playbook Instead, spending weeks downplaying the virus, which they knew about in late December, spouting rampant misinformation and contradicting their own medical and scientific advisors. They wasted nearly two months needed to bolster the federal stockpile of critically needed supplies and equipment. By then, it was too late. Trump likes to name things after himself. This one, he truly earned— The Trump Plague.

It ALMOST pales in comparison to the 425,000 deaths Trump caused because he downplayed the whole pandemic.
