It's sad that China knew just how bad this virus was, and that it had morphed into spreading from human to human, and China
decided to give misinformation about it. I imagine that it's pretty hard to come up with a viable strategy against the virus
when you really didn't know what you're fighting. Even today the Chinese are not being forthcoming. Yet, Berg puts the blame
on Trump and not his buddies in China. sad
Reading comprehension issues? From the original post...........
The Golfer-in-Chief is not responsible for the viral outbreak that began in China. Nor is he responsible for China's awful mismanagement of it. But this admin received its first formal notification of the outbreak of the coronavirus in China on Jan. 3. Since that time the federal reaction to the predictable outbreak in the US has been a cluster fuck. It began with the misguided belief the virus was "under control" and since has been marked by a series of terrible decisions based on the desire not to disrupt the economy. Tragically bad decisions highlighted by myself and other progressives on this board. The delineation of which has been met with recrimination, denial, whataboutisms, deflection, and factual inaccuracies by indignant Trumpleton's. All to no avail. The facts are as they are. In spite of our foreknowledge, repeated warnings, the capacity to mobilize tremendous resources to fight the virus, a nationwide system of excellent medical facilities, the ability to easily communicate accurate information nationally, an educated citizenry, the US has what is arguably the worst outbreak of the virus in the world.
There needs to be a reckoning for our failure. One that rightfully begins at the top.
