and this call went unanswered:
Defending against criticism of his handling of the coronavirus, President Donald Trump suggested the other day that he could hardly have been expected to be ready for such an unexpected crisis.
“Who would have thought?” he asked during a visit to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the nerve center for the government’s response to the outbreak. “Who would have thought we would even be having the subject?”
Actually, quite a few people would have thought, and did — including the officials in his own White House who were in charge of preparing for just such a pandemic only to have their office shut down in a reorganization in 2018. “The threat of pandemic flu is the No. 1 health security concern,” one of the officials said the day before that happened two years ago. “Are we ready to respond? I fear the answer is no.”
For Trump, Coronavirus Proves to Be an Enemy He Can't Tweet Away
Face it folks, the current President of the United States is incompetent, continues to make foolish & ignorant comments and now passed the buck to Pence, needing someone to blame as the virus continues to infect others.
Hopefully medical professionals, local and state officials will continue to act, tell the people what to do to prevent infection and not lie to them, this is serious and not the time for demagoguery from a charlatan.
