COVID-19 & US healthcare system
RE: COVID-19 & US healthcare system
Out of context? Perhaps on a technicality.

Here's what he really said:

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/13...ing-128971

So. Let's step back a moment here.

Trump is saying it's all Obama's fault - the classic standby for fuckhead racist rednecks that fly a confederate flag out front and hide the Nazi paraphernalia in the basement.

Here's the thing.

One of the big goals for Trump has been to undo just about everything Obama has done, such as the Affordable Healthcare Act (which, need I remind you, was just a reskinned version of Romney Care, which only adds to the degree of the pot calling the kettle black).

One of the things that he did was to pretty much fire anyone that had anything to do with any sort of response to a pandemic outbreak here in America, touting the slogan, "We can get them back whenever we want."

Yeah. Sure buddy. They're just gonna standby and not work just so they can come running once you call for them.

This idea of paying people to sit and wait for that one moment to shine is nothing new. Kings and emperors in ages past quite often kept people who were experts in specific matters, literally "on retainer". In fact, that was the title these people often held: Retainer.

Trump's excuse for getting rid of these people, these metaphorical retainers, was that he didn't want to be spending money on people to just sit around. But they don't just sit around. They spend their time sharpening their skills, running through scenarios, and just working on making better plans in general. "How can we improve?" If you ask me, that's a very worthwhile thing to be spending our taxpayer dollars on, because, as the Corona Virus has shown us, it's not a matter of IF it happens, but a matter of WHEN.

In other words, this is pretty much like paying for insurance. Except that Trump didn't want to pay for insurance. Because it'll never happen. Right? RIGHT!?

Fuck yeah it'll happen you orange painted idiot.

And then he has the gall to say, "I don't take responsibility at all." when he was the one that specifically ordered that the very mechanisms meant to defeat something like the Corona Virus to be dismantled.

Rajvik, you have no recourse here. Anything you say at this point is only going to be impotent and misdirected rage.
