No one is asking the most important question.

Can Trump, a completely incompetent narcissist and the weak government he has put in place, handle this major crisis. I don't think he can, which means we may be heading for an unimaginable disaster. The longer this goes on, the chances of this happening grows.

Sorry about this depressing post, I'm just being a realist.

Pretty much every reasonable human being on the planet, in fact.

That date is the start of the real mend & yeah expecting minimum of 200,000 deaths due to the delay for Oscar Health by them for them for profits, and they should be hung upside down until dead for this?

Not sure we are way worse off than other countries, but we need a better leader that we believe is doing the best they can for us. Doesn't feel that way to me.

It's being answered at the press conferences everyday. If anyone is under the illusion help is coming or it's not that bad... Goodluck to them. Took a drive around the center of my town on Monday. I haven't been "out" in months. I was stunned! People out with the kids at all the stores. Whole family. Not stocking up, 1- 2 bags. Honestly we were warned about a month ago now as to where we would be. I do feel for anyone w/o access to world news. Internet/cable etc. If only relying on national/local sources I feel badly for them.
