Trump was not totally incompetent in handling epidemic which will enter the US history as "Trump virus"... After nine months of our suffering and soon 400,000 deaths. Because of human and economic catastrophe created by Trump's incompetency and religious extremism... You must be drinking again.

We now have, after nine months daily deaths reaching China's total number of deaths. Instead we have Pompeo's and Trump's endless accusations of China to deflect responsibility -- for which both should be impeached !!
We need to thank and congratulate China and its able government for acting speedily and rapidly containing what should enter US history as a Trump-virus. And try to figure out just how China is able to vaccinate a million city almost overnight -- they must deploy tens of thousands teams.
We can and should do the same yet we are still in 14 (fourteen) weeks estimates for just primary vaccination groups. This is nothing but the federal crime -- after nine months of "preparations"
The US is a failed state - a state that totally failed both its "left" and "right" citizens
walk me through what you think the President could have done to make the liberal governors like Newsom and Cuomo fall into line? Why are the R states like FL doing so much better than states like NY. Read the Post article I linked above.
This guy is clearly a CCP troll, I recommend ignoring him. As soon as he said:
"We need to thank and congratulate China and its able government for acting speedily and rapidly..."
the game was up.
What China's "able government" did was lie about death counts, viciously suppress the spread of news about the virus far more aggressively than the virus itself, deliberately allow the virus to spread around the world, and disseminate propaganda trying to blame other countries for the virus, including the US and Italy. Not to mention hoarding PPE, selling defective tests and equipment, etc.
China needs to be held accountable for what it has done to the rest of the world. Sadly, that seems unlikely to happen any time soon with "Beijing Biden" about to take office. My thoughts and prayers go to Taiwan as well. I would be surprised if we got anything more than a "c'mon, man" out of the new administration when China decides the time is right to take over the island. Sad.
I'm pretty much convinced that is the case, there's been circumstantial evidence floating around for some time, and the CCP's behavior gives me every reason to believe it.
All those countries are much healthier and smarter than average Americans. Even WHO amd Fauci were advising against wearing masks for adymptomatic people. Southern CA which is as blue as it gets amd despise Trump is one of the worst affected parts in the country...tell me how did Trump contribute to that?
Exactly - the first thing Taiwan, "right across the street" from China, did was ramp up its mask production like crazy, so that every citizen had at least 2/week - and made them available all over - and look at their case and death rate - miniscule ....
We know that China lied about the pandemic, suborning the WHO to peddle the claim that human-to-human transmission was rare during the early weeks. We know that China shut down domestic travel in and out of Wuhan, while allowing international flights to and from Wuhan. We have evidence from leaked documents that China had at least 640,000 cases at a time when their official case count was less than 1/8 that. We have good reason to believe that the number of deaths in Wuhan in the early part of the pandemic was many times the official count. But you regard point out these facts (and whatever other classified info Pompeo is party to supporting the culpability of the CCP for a global catastrophe) as "deflect[ing] responsibility."
Do you seriously believe HRC would have done better has she prevailed in 2016? Her party decried shutting down travel from China as "hysterical xenophobia", called on people to go to Chinatown for Lunar New Year as the virus was arriving on our shores, objected to the travel ban from Europe when it was first announced. Was this just because "Orange Man Bad" and they 'd have all been on board for travel restrictions ASAP had one of their own been in the White House? Who knows? Would she have pushed public-private partnerships that solved the PPE shortage and gave us vaccines in record time? We don't know but she'd have been of the party of trust-the-government, so maybe not. Did Trump order nursing homes with inadequate access to PPE and no way of setting up quarantine wards to take COVID-positive patient? Oh, no that was Andrew Cuomo, the star of COVID-19 briefings, held up as a shining contrast to Trump's incompetence.
There are many things we should all blame on Trump, for one of which he is now waiting trial having been impeached (and for which I sincerely hope he will be disbarred from holding any Federal office ever again), but the handling of the pandemic is not one of them.
I don't think I've used the phrase "shining city on the hill" anywhere in my posts. Nor did I blame "China" -- I laid the blame at the feet of the Chinese Communist Party. If you don't think the CCP is BAD, perhaps you should review their behavior not only with regard to the pandemic, but in Tibet, throughout China during the "Cultural Revolution", and Xinjiang and Hong Kong more recently.

Worse, it's possible that their incompetence might have allowed the virus to escape from one of their labs in the first place :

It is encouraging that you can "see that clearly"....
Just read a good article from Prof. Richard Wolff who sees it very clearly"

Better than countries using masks -- Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China? On which planet are you?
All those countries are much healthier and smarter than average Americans. Even WHO amd Fauci were advising against wearing masks for adymptomatic people. Southern CA which is as blue as it gets amd despise Trump is one of the worst affected parts in the country...tell me how did Trump contribute to that?
Gee, I wonder why they are healthier - could it be that they wear masks to filter out airborne pollutants?
Trump actually seems to believe in States rights instead of a bigger Fed government. Go figure.

You think Trump should be impeached for constitutionally protected speech? Wow.
I see -- "China BAD" syndrome -- we are still "shining city on the hill" ??
