There are so many things that he could have done in order to reduce the death count, but instead he opted to punt to the states, so that 50 governors instantly had to compete against each other--and the federal government. Since then, he has been too busy downplaying the threat of the pandemic. Too many of his nitwit followers contend that there is nothing that ever could have been done.

But for starters, how about a national plan on testing? With a 24-hour turnaround--so that, you know, testing results actually matter?

1. Claim that COVID is not serious.
2. Blame Democrats for the economic disaster that the pandemic has caused.
3. Claim that the reason we have so many cases is that we test more than anyone.
4. Say that the virus will just go away.
5. Hope that the virus actually does go away.
6. Stay away from crowds at his rallies so he isn't exposed.
7. Blame the governors, especially the Democratic governors.
8. Ignore the problem and hope it just goes away.
9. Avoid panicking people by telling them the truth.
10 disband the pandemic response team.
11. pull out of the WHO.

That pretty much sums it up.

The plan you ask?

It is right here... "It’s going away. It’ll go away. Things go away. No question in my mind that it will go away." (Trump 08/05/2020.)

I think Trump's national Covid plan is to talk about black protesters breaking windows.

Sure, he is going to keep lying about it and hope none of his sheep will notice, even when they are hospitalized or on deaths door, seems to be working for him so far. He only needs them to last until Nov 3.

When it was just New York and New Jersey, he was practically giddy. Win-win-win-win!

Sounds a lot like his response to fires in Blue states.

Tell me when the president has the right tell each state how it runs it's affairs.

You would be the first one to post a thread about a dictatorship.

I love how Trump gets credit for various economic things that happen in the stock market but he gets not blame for anything that goes wrong elsewhere.

Why do you think there should be a "national plan" for something that the individual states are dealing with?

Your normal contribution to things at least this time has a hidden meaning, the carelessness of your President has caused a plethora of deaths and untold damage.

most us thought we were one country... Trump certainly changed that

The only people who have ever thought the President can tell the states how to handle their affairs are stupid people.

And lord knows, we have a lot of stupid people in the country. They've been particularly stupid since Trump became President.
