    imo he shouldve publicly worn masks earlier to encourage people to do it. He shouldve been very clear with it.

    He didn't fully f*** up tho. Him blocking traffic from china probably is the reason why the USA only got hit way later. Also luckily he didn't pull a pelosi and said "everyone needs to go to chinatown".

    Him blocking traffic from china didn't do s*** most of our cases were imported from italy/europe. And it's not like he did anything with the time he bought anyways.

    he should of put more stricter travel restriction, like completely banned all travel out or in the US

    Should not have downplayed the virus saying it will go away

    Should have mandated masks country wide and made it a federal law

    Should have made states keep schools closed

    Etc

    Most countries didn’t do this either

    This is a pretty good summation of his ineptitude.

    Holy s***

    First I don’t think some of these are good things to implement

    Second, a lot of people trying to say that trump did it worse than most could’ve done, while it’s mostly the usa’s ignorant population who made the us ‘corona stats’ worse than other countries.

    President Trump’s comments and attitude towards coronavirus have a direct hand with the people in America downplaying the seriousness of coronavirus, had he addressed it more seriously instead of delaying his response the way that the country is right now would’ve definitely not been as intense as it is now

    That’s the point I agree with;
    Closing all schools and banning all travel would be horrendous tho

    He gave those responsibilities to the States because had he actually done that every media organization would be calling him a tyrant strongarming democracy and pushing through laws with no congressional deliberation.

    I mean just think of the administration most known for anti-immigration and holding camps locking the US down during an election season too, it would be a political nightmare.

    Personally i blame state leaders and their inability to handle the situation, and instead using politics to stall. Cuomo decided to use pandemic time to play political warfare instead of enforcing lockdown, and only enforced curfew when riots were f***ing up Fordham and the white parts of Manhattan, go figure

    Don’t know about the travel, but for schools, kids are definitely crackheads and plague transmitters

    Colleges around the country who opened up have been reporting crazy numbers of people getting infected and parties that are happening against campus rules

    Haven’t heard anything that bad about elementary schools or middle schools yet, but I imagine high schools are a breeding ground especially with how rebellious and tight some high school classes can be

    Yeah colleges is a different story, cus it’s also much easier to plan things online for them. Smaller kids are not likely to spread the virus as much from what I have read.

    It just would have really helped if he would have been a leader and tried to unify the nation behind the cause of stopping this thing in it's tracks instead of playing politics and trying to blame the democrats for being in charge of cities with dense populations.

    All it would have taken was him selling some MAGA masks and lensing the fight against covid as an "american duty" and his followers would have eaten it up.

  • Sep 28, 2020

    Because he was and will never be fit for president

    He only cares about himself

    He doesn’t even care about his racist supporters

  • Sep 30, 2020

    The virus was already here when he did that travel ban that s*** meant nothing. What he could have done is acknowledged it and listened to doctors that clearly know more about health than him

  • nobody would've handled it correctly

    the best way to do it would've been completely cutting off inbound flights from the entire world. we had to bring American's back home and then forcefully quarantine them for 2 weeks. if they refused we should've used force just like China did.

    the dems didn't even want to cut off flights from China. Deblasio stupid ass was telling people to still go out and support local Chinese restaurants in late Feb.

    as far as the mask situation goes. yes Trump is ed when it comes to masks but lets not act like WHO, CDC, and Fauci all weren't downplaying the usefulness of masks for months. Bunch of monkeys in charge of s*** all over the world.

    bottom line is yes he mishandled it but it's big cap when people like biden say they would've done better. this country was destined to fail when it came to it's first real pandemic. next time it won't be like this.

    everyone was against masks at the beginging because healthcare professionals needed them more than anyone and the general public was buying all of them out.

    id argue cause there are a lot of people not taking it serious due to the lack of federal guidance

    And younger people, like 18-34 are still going out and partying, coincidentally they are the highest group contracting the virus now (at least in my state)

    we can wear masks at the store all we want, but if we aren’t playing it safe with friends and on large groups, then it will do little to help if just one person in the group has contracted it

    Also, nobody even wears the god damn things correctly. They may as well not even be worn if they're under the nose. I had to tell all of my employees that I will start sending them home and cutting shifts if they don't wear them properly. I am a severe asthmatic which means that I'm high risk, so I'm not playing any games with this s***.

    Sure, maybe wearing the masks suck (it's a pretty easy thing to do, imo), but it is extremely preferable to having a tube down your throat and being hooked up to a ventilator (I know this from experience).
