Evidently, an intelligence report said in November that the virus was a world threat. Trump did not take any steps at that time. (no link, yet)..We all know that Bush Jr. also ignored a report on the attack that was coming.
There is a video that was going around showing the world that Bush ignored the report.

(22,037 posts)W was a bit of a fool but he has some self-awareness of his "Gentelman's C" education. Meanwhile, Cheney knew exactly what he was doing to seize power.
What if Cheney wanted a Pearl Harbor event in order to take the extreme steps he wanted to enact?
In contrast, Trump is an idiot who thinks he's smart. He never allows anyone smarter than he to be in a position of influence. He dismisses the intelligence reports because they factually demonstrate that Trump doesn't know anything.

(9,114 posts)Came out in the Times, 9/11/12, and the benghazi attack buried coverage of the report.
He also ignored reports about the threat Katrina posed.
Repug presidents. They're like that.
Rump and li'l bush also utilize the tragedy and chaos to do all the nazi things that they'd already planned to do before the disasters struck.
