This was 100% preventable

Thanx Donny.

We did not need a global pandemic response team

We did not need that epidemiologist in China from the CDC watching out for potential global pandemics

We did not need scientists working on a coronavirus vaccine (SARs) that was defunded in 2018

We did not need those W.H.O.'s C-19 test kits

We did not need to know about the late Jan./early Feb. C-19 case in Seattle that was discovered by
Seattle's Dept. of Health and the University of Washington. (Trump's CDC told them not to talk about
their findings and to stop testing.)

We did not need to prepare for C-19 after our intel briefed Trump and company about the threat that
coronavirus was to America and the world.

His cultists thinks he is leading a great battle and the end of the war is
at hand. They don't want to know or believe the facts. My mind was blown
by trump before CV-19 hit. His name will live in infamy.

His cultists will get pissed at tRUMP's inability to be presidential when it counted most for them, and they are paying the price and suffering the consequences for it.
