I think the complaint was he was telling states to do things with no plan (Same as today. Tweeting âOPEN SCHOOOLSâ and âLIBERATE MIâ is not a actual plan.
I like his new plan. Which is to say covid coverage is illegal.

So tell us libs in your own wordsâŚwhat would you have done differently?
Isnât testing already free & leave for those already affected by COVID 19 already available under the CARES Act?
Not to mention some states, like Massachusetts (2021) & Rhode Island already offer 6 months paid medical leave. Right now in MA payments of about $5 per week are funding it, and leaves of up to 6 months may start in January.
Everything the Federal Government touches goes bad. Affordable Care Act plan, anyone?
And why should some of these agencies or small businesses get any relief from the Federal Government? State Governors shot them in the foot, now many are doing it to themselves through bankersâ hours, appointment only & not opening at all.
Bidenâs economic plan would most likely mirror that of his boss, under whom many jobs were lost:
Iâll take a POTUS & VP who are fighting COVID 19 over an Unemployment Check & leadership hiding from it, thank you.

Much of what is contained in Bidenâs âplanâ, as linked to in the OP, has already been done by the Trump administration. They go on and on about coordinating and supplying hospitals with needed equipment. The CDC started doing that in early February, before the first case was recorded in the US.

I love these threads where we learn that we spent hundreds of billions on the CDC and HHS in general for them to stand by and watch as the states fight pandemic in a piecemeal fashion.

If Trump had just followed the established protocols and gave a reassuring speech every once in awhile, youâd currently be carrying him on your shoulders over the election finish line with a five to ten point lead on Biden.
Instead you did this, which youâll be denying you ever did if Biden becomes president.

If Trump only did this or that is your plan?
What? Using the CDC as the lead agency during a pandemic and federalizing the response for a nationwide pandemic? Yeah of course it â â â â â â â is what Iâd do. Thatâs literally what the agency exists for, thatâs why we spent hundreds of billions on them over the years.

News flash -Trump tweeting hes doing something does NOT mean he did it.

Oh you have secret knowledge that the CDC isnât supposed to do that, is that it?
Iâm joking, I know you wonât answer this with anything other than a vague hand wavey thing because to actually type it out in the positive is so unbelievably untrue you would be ruthlessly mocked for it.

And states and counties spend billions of dollars on health care professionals. They look to guidance from the CDC to determine their actions locally, as they should.
The CDC coordinated with hospitals on medical equipment in early February. They met with governors and state representatives in early February to discuss social distancing and tactics to take if the virus was not contained.
Ramping up of equipment production, test set development and vaccine also began in early February.
This myth of nothing having been done is just that, a myth.
And still continuing with the medical equipment, long after Cuomo bragged that no one person in NY died for lack of medical equipment.
Democrats have only added sitting around complaining about how the scientists and health care professionals should hurry up. NOthing else. Nothing positive.
