trump Blames Obama Again

[depotoo]

Actually, there had been put in place a rigorous, long drawn out approval process by the Fda for any outside testing to be able to go forward. Trump had that red tape removed so outside vendors could begin testing. Otherwise we simply had to rely on the small(always small) testing capabilities of the cdc.
So, yeah, he removed obstacles that had been set in place when he found out what the hold up was.

trump Blames Obama Again

Thank You Donald for once again reminding us that most every fucked up thing in the world today was fucked up by Obama's lousy 8 years in office perpetrated on America by the hateful racist Democrats.

Obama's botched handling of H1N1 and the ebola virus resulted in 12,800 deaths in the USA over the span of 1-2 years. (final total)

Trump has done much better with the coronavirus, with only 135,000 deaths in the USA over a span of 5 months. and still counting.

I see why you work for the post office. Your math and logic needs a lot of work, but then the gov is used to hiring idiots.

 

[Tom Paine 1949]

The man is a menace, a scoundrel who will say almost anything to escape taking responsibility for his own administration’s failures. Blaming Obama in this way, at this time, for the COVID 19 lack of testing, is just obscene.

Not that dealing with Covid-19 was or is simple. Nobody should imagine that a Democratic administration under Hillary could have totally stopped its spread. Given the nature of this disease, the nature of our own federated division of powers, the hatred of Republicans for Hillary and our general dislike of government-initiated actions that even temporarily limit basic freedoms, there was probably no way U.S. society could have stopped the pandemic as China has. No way we could re-open our economy safely, as they are doing. At best, without Trump, the number of infections would be significantly lower, while the economic disruption and political polarization would probably be much the same.

But Trump has proven himself incompetent as a “healer” or “steady helmsman” in these rough COVID waters. He remains a scoundrel without scruples.

Obama funded the Chinese lab in China that set the virus loose on the world.

Hillary would have read the January and February PDB's where they laid out the spread and progression of the coronavirus. Given her and Bills age and health, she would have been one of the first people wearing a face mask.

After the first 6 months, the Bush recession was no longer an issue. Instead the Obama recovery (the longest continuous monthly job growth in American history.)

 

[gipper]

I recall Ears blaming W many times, but I don’t recall the MSM being critical of him like they are with Don.

Weird?

Well Bush did leave the country in the deepest recession in American history. Entangled the country in the longest war in American history. And left the biggest federal deficits in American history.

Just to name a few.

Lol. Yes W sucked major. Then, O sucked just as much. O turned two wars into seven. He doubled the national debt too.

 

[jc456]

He takes it a step farther, he blames people who had nothing to do with it.

While he fired the whole pandemic team, he decimated the American CDC in China and around the world. He basically destroyed the system Obama put in place to prevent all this from happening.

Obama's approach was to defeat the problems in the nations they originate. He was successful at that with SARS, MERZ and EBOLA.

Then trump and republicans come after him to destroy the system designed to prevent what we are now enduring.

Then trump has the nerve to blame it on Obama and Biden.

What a coward.

didn't obammy blame W?

Trump is great at cutting off his nose to spite his face.

so you agree then that the economy was trump's and not obammy's?

 

[satrebil]

While he fired the whole pandemic team,

TRUMP DID NOT FIRE THE PANDEMIC TEAM. JESUS H CHRIST WILL YOU STUPID FUCKS STOP GETTING YOUR "FACTS" FROM FACEBOOK MEMES?

Partly false claim: Trump fired entire pandemic response team in 2018

Correction: the headline of this fact-check earlier read "Trump fired pandemic response team in 2018", it has been amended to "Trump fired entire pandemic response team in 2018"

[Claudette]

Another misleading, dishonest headline with no substance.

From the article;
This is in no way 'blaming' Obama for anything.

“Biden and Obama stopped their testing,” Trump said. “They just stopped it. You probably know that. I’m sure you don’t want to report it. But they stopped testing. Right in the middle, they just went, ‘No more testing.’”

It’s not entirely clear what Obama-era testing program Trump was referring to. He has previously criticized the Obama administration over its handling of the 2009 H1N1 flu outbreak, which killed about 12,500 Americans. (On Monday he acknowledged that the so-called swine flu was “a much lesser problem than the one we're having.”)

Yup that's what I read not that POS the Op put up. What a whiny idiotic shit the Op is.

He’s a sociopath or maybe even a psychopath. So, it’s either another four years of his bs or four years under a senile establishmentarian corporatist warmongering jackass.

Is there a lesser evil?

Well, well, well. This doesn't bode well for Hillary

The IG report stated that most of Hillary's emails were "sent to another country" or they were hacked. A member of the House Committee on the Judiciary said during a hearing Thursday that a government watchdog found that nearly all of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails were sent...

The nasal mist version of the vaccine started shipping on 1 October 2009.

Around three billion doses were produced, with delivery in November 2009

let’s look at the facts-
Oct 16, 2009 (CIDRAP News) – Production delays are cutting into federal pandemic vaccine–supply projections at a time when virus activity is widespread in 41 states and children's deaths are spiraling, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said today.

Since August, federal officials have predicted that 45 million pandemic vaccine doses would be available by mid October, but today the CDC said the total so far is 11.4 million.

The slow start is complicating the launch of pandemic flu vaccine campaigns for state and local public health departments as well as school districts. Some have postponed or cancelled events because they don't know when they will receive their vaccine supplies. For example, the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, based in Lawrence, Kansas, recently cancelled Oct 30 clinics at the fairgrounds and the University of Kansas because it wasn't sure when the vaccine would arrive.



US H1N1 vaccine delayed as cases and deaths rise



Vaccine production delays led to a supply of vaccine that was slower than expected. The first doses were administered to the public on October 5, 2009, but the supply of vaccine during the first 2 months of the program was not sufficient to cover the target groups for whom the ACIP had recommended vaccination. Adding to this difficulty, the majority of the vaccine that was initially available was Live-Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV), which was contraindicated for the very young, for those with certain conditions such as asthma, and for pregnant women—among the target groups considered highest priority. Further, many healthcare workers were reluctant to receive LAIV, often because of unfounded concerns about transmission to patients in healthcare settings and vaccine efficacy. This is discussed in more detail below. Unfortunately, this limited supply of vaccine occurred when demand for vaccine was at its highest and around the time of the peak of the fall 2009 wave of influenza.



We prepared for being able to move as much vaccine as quickly as possible and really were concerned that there would be a glut of vaccine. What we had to deal with then was a trickle, and a trickle that really continued for a number of weeks.” David Fleming, director and health officer for Public Health–Seattle & King County, agreed, saying, “We spent months planning for a response where the rate-limiting step was going to be the vaccine distribution system, and that’s not what happened.” For this reason, Fleming continued, “It is important to go back and critically look at . . . the system that allowed us as a nation to miss for so long that the fundamental problem we were going to be facing was a vaccine shortage.”

2009 swine flu pandemic vaccine - Wikipedia



By April 2010, it was apparent that most of the vaccine was not needed. The US government had bought 229 million doses of H1N1 vaccines of which 91 million doses were used; of the surplus, some of it was stored in bulk, some of it was sent to developing countries and 71 million doses were destroyed.[132] The World Health Organization is planning to examine if it overreacted to the H1N1 outbreak.[132]

Once again as the virus gets out of control trump blames Obama and Biden for trump's own failures and total irresponsibility.

Seriously here. How can anyone blame Obama and Biden for something that didn't exist when they were in office? How can Obama and Biden order testing for the virus stopped when the virus didn't exist and no one even knew about it?

As for the tests that were developed when this started, he's still trying to say that it was Obama's fault. Obama wasn't president when this virus existed so there is no way Obama could have developed a test. trump REFUSED the WHO tests. Which left us without a test while the rest of the world had one. Then the test that was developed was contaminated so was useless. Which set us back even more.

He claims that Obama put in a rule that prevented private companies from developing tests so he had to remove it. Which is also a lie. Obama did have some procedures developed but none were implemented. So there was nothing for trump to remove. Private companies could always develop tests.

None of this is Obama and Biden's fault. Everyone knows this.

How can anyone support a man who allowed things to get so out of control and then turn around to point fingers of blame on people who had nothing to do with any of it?

This is just disgusting but so typical of conservatives/republicans.

Trump again directs blame at Obama as coronavirus pandemic worsens in U.S.

The president on Monday again sought to redirect blame for his pandemic response to the previous administration.

What specifically did Obama do to enable the recovery? The answer is nothing, his policies were almost all anti business, anti jobs, and anti recovery. America recovered despite Obama.

Not really. He bailed out the big banks making them even bigger and more political powerful. Bailed out numerous big corporations and gave many government grants to favored industries. Then he passed a HC plan that greatly enriched big Pharma, hospital and insurance. All resulting in huge donations to his party and campaign.

He didn’t do shit for Main Street but he massively helped Wall Street.
