No amount of optimism will save the hundreds of thousands of lives that are now at risk due to an incompetent leader. IF this thing peters out it will be due to the Governors who locked down their states. People need to take action and Trump did not. He has half assed this entire thing, like he has with most of his directives while in office.
3. Trump eliminated scientists and other essential government staff who could have gotten in front of this so that he could justify giving millionaires tax breaks. He still is running Trillion dollar deficits. No true Republican/Conservative would support running trillion dollar deficits. Trump supporters are uneducated and have no idea what conservatism is based on.
4. Republicans today have been the biggest supporters of Socialism since FDR, yet pretend it is a dirty word. They bail out corporations with public funds, give subsidies to corporations (tax cuts) and send checks to citizens they hurt (ie farmers during the trade war, and now coronavirus) to prop up the failed economy.
I know all of this will go over the heads of the useless Trump cult. That is OK. They will just blame the Chinese. Like they blamed the Mexicans for their job losses because they are uneducated and untrained.
