How do you think this would of played out if HRC would have won in 2016? Be really honest with yourself. Her every move would not have been highlighted every second and a big chunk of the media would have given her a free pass. A trial run can be seen in the whole Cuomo fiasco playing out now. Ignored until it became too big to ignore.
Plus, you don’t think the red states would have fought, ignored, and bucked every move if she was the point person? I can about guarantee every single red state would have told her to screw off and legally challenged any shutdown or mask mandate. Remember, you have blue population centers versus giant swaths of red, it would of been a monumental struggle.
You are letting your hatred for the man cloud your understanding of how good we ever could have responded to something like this. The CDC was decades behind in technology courtesy of several Rep and Dem administrations. The CDC’s in-house globally recognized testing leader pulled a boneheaded move that delayed any hope of getting testing out in a timely manner. You think old HRC would have trusted the globally recognized leader or yanked him at the first sign of trouble?
Sure, Trump is an obnoxious . He babbled and bragged to no end. He should of just shut up, but his personality is so different that he couldn’t. But there was only one way we were ever going to get out of this. Immunity, either through natural progression or a vaccine. Every thing else was duct tape trying to keep the wheels on.
