Hospitals are in charge of containing the pandemic? Silly me, I thought they were in charge of taking care of sick people. State department of health and hospitals are not the same things.

You are flailing dude.

Hilarious.

All of these excuses as to why the wealthiest and most powerful country to ever exist on the face of the planet is acting like a third world nation… yes they are hilarious.

We aren’t the worlds wealthiest nation because everyone is wealthy. In many ways we are more comparable to some South American countries than to European or nordic ones. Any way you slice it, the failure in this has been, state, local and citizens fault, not the feds. The single biggest factor being citizens not complying with medical advice. Which is evidenced by some states opening back up without dire consequence.

Liberate ( fill in state name here) !!!

Pretty much sums up the OP.

The buck stops way over there. Point fingers every where.

Let’s see how Trump is polling on his COVID-19 response:

President Trump](https://thehill.com/people/donald-trump)’s approval rating for how he has responded to the coronavirus pandemic has dropped to its lowest level, according to a new poll that comes amid spiking cases nationwide and criticism of the president for suggesting COVID-19 testing should be slowed.

The latest Reuters-Ipsos poll, released Wednesday, found that only 37 percent of Americans approve of the way Trump has responded to the health crisis, the lowest percentage since the poll began asking the question in early March.

Of those surveyed, 58 percent of Americans responded that they disapproved of how Trump has reacted to the pandemic.

That seems bad. Is that bad? And with cases getting worse, I don’t see this number getting any better for Trump. I wonder if this will hurt his reelection campaign?

And why is that?

Product of media-spread panic in a rush to profit.

Because a President didn’t force them to?

or perhaps (again) Trump is doing a bad job.

If Trump promoted mask usage do you think that would have helped?

I thought Trump downplayed it?

Not force…But hasn’t he downplayed the situation? And Trump and the CEC has even gone after Fauci to discredit him. Can see that right here from posters on this board as well.

It wouldn’t have hurt. Of course libs would be the ones refusing to wear them. Who are all these new cases? Trump supporters? I don’t think that’s the case in California and Texas. Under 30? How does Trump do in that demographic?

If he had done an EO for a $10,000 fine and 90 days in Supermax, compliance would have been better.

Did he? What else should he be doing?

Where has Trump discredited Fauci?

The “CEC” is part of the media. FNC is guilty of panic-spreading as well.

Absolutely. Can you imagine a President agreeing with CDC and saying “Masks are very important, and I encourage everyone to wear one, not just for your own health, but for the health of every other citizen you may come in contact with. I, will set an example by wearing a mask where ever I go.”

Trump when he’s not president: “Leadership: Whatever happens, you’re responsible. If it doesn’t happen, you’re responsible.”

Trump when he is president: “I take no responsibility at all”

Hopefully he can stop being president soon.
