Welcome to America! 

I genuinely wonder how Republicans/Trump/Conservatives can be so outright ignorant, stupid, and villainous and people still support them. Even if you trim away literally everything else Trump has done...this nonsense with how he's responding to the Coronavirus is...bafflingly bad. Like, it's so clearly obviously stupid. At first I wondered if maybe liberals were just exaggerating what he said or skipping out on details to make him look bad (Liberals do that, too; not as often as conservatives but they do it), but nope! 

Your US president is basically plugging his ears and going LALALALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOU. 

Your President. 

The person people voted for. 

The person people chose to represent them. 

Is acting like a 3 year old who doesn't want to eat his broccoli. 

This is not how ANYONE in ANY position of power should EVER be acting under ANY circumstances. How he managed to make it to the highest seat in the land despite having the cognition of a child, the maturity of a teen, and the unearned confidence of a first-year psych major is absolutely baffling. And the fact that he's likely to get reelected in 2020 saddens me to know end. 

Seriously, at this point we might just need to shut the US down and turn it back on again if this is how things are going. (Canada has Doug Ford as the premier of Ontario, so we're not doing much better, and we almost voted in Scheer as PM - would have given he won the popular vote, but Trudeau won more seats.)

I'm glad we didn't elect Scheer. Fatso Ford's bad enough.

If more coronavirus deaths occur in America under Trump's boneheaded plan, and unfortunately they very likely will, then criminal negligence resulting in death can be added to the list of charges against Trump. If he gets the virus next then it's own fault for being so incompetent and immoral.

What upsets me is that...we kinda DID vote in Scheer. but due to a technicality in the election process, Trudeau won again. 

I actually like Trudeau, I think a lot of the hate he gets is pretty silly.
