How is this acceptable to anyone?







How dare he now claim that he always took this virus seriously?



clearly he didn’t and now we’re all paying for it. No, he isn’t responsible for this virus. But he’s responsible for our country’s response to it. A response that has been among the worst in the entire world. As shown here:

Somehow, over the entire course of his presidency, he has established the "norm" that he cannot be held responsible, or accountable, for anything he does not want to be held accountable for. And part of the strategy he uses to drum this in, is to rewrite his personal history.

Since he dismissed the coronavirus's seriousness for quite a while, yesterday he had the gall to say he knew it was a pandemic before many others did. Of course, that is a bald face lie. It's him rewriting his personal history.

But, these countless lies are in service to his creation of a president who can not, must not, be held accountable or responsible. And I see, in a recent survey, that 45% approve of his handling of the coronavirus response. Man, that is one tight, tight cult he has created.

Anybody who dares to criticise him, anybody who demands he be held to account, is visciously attacked by him as an enemy. The governor of Washington asks for a better federal response, and Trump calls him "a snake". This is totally unacceptable.

Harry Truman: "The buck stops here". With Trump, the buck will never stop at his desk if he feels it hurts his image. This is absurd!!!

I think Trump falls for his own lies as much as any one of his supporters.
 
Here is the breakdown of the votes so far:

1-3: 5 votes
4-6: 9 votes
7-9: 12 votes
10: 2 votes

One vote for 1.

If the dividing line is at 5 then <5 is 9 votes, 5 and above is 19 votes. So most on this site are moderately to seriously concerned. Seems the general population fits this too considering the panicked activities lately.
Updated vote breakdown. JF is getting increasingly panicky.

1: 3 votes
2-3: 4 votes
4-6: 13 votes
7-9: 21 votes
10: 4 votes


Haven't changed mine yet. Still at 4 but leaning toward a move to 6. Mainly just because everything is so surreal, and the economic impact will likely be large and long-lasting. But I don't think we'll see devastation or permanent impact. We'll recover but it will take a while.
 
I voted for 8 but after watching Trump's latest press conference I'm officially at a 10. He's talking about reopening the country as soon as next week. He clearly cares more about the economy than the lives of the American people. Hospitals are going to become overwhelmed and start running out of ventilators, masks, beds, etc. This is terrifying.
