I'm curious has it ever occurred to you that the
👉downplaying of the pandemic
👉missteps with getting tests out initially (& refusing the WHO test)
👉lack of Federal support in obtaining #PPE
👉ongoing lack of testing
may have actually been deliberate and not just incompetence?
So it’s not just me.
I mean...on a Scale of 1 to 10 how do you think America's doing on testing?🤔
I'd say we're at a NEGATIVE 2
We desperately need MORE testing
So why's the Federal Govt pulling funds for #coronavirus testing sites this Friday as the Pandemic's ramping up?!?

President Bone Spur's abandoned his troops under heavy fire

The Federal Govt's standing in the way of our front lines getting the Protective Equipment they need

His inability to appropriately enact the Defense Production Act & to repair our broken Supply Chain is KILLING people
Think of clothing brands. If the US Govt used #DPA to ensure that every clothing manufacturer making clothes in the US turn their factories around to make Masks & Gowns then we'd see a surge of product available for the States while supplying much needed jobs. But they haven't.
If instead of ASKING Corporate giants to 'promise' to make ventilators in exchange for PR...what if he just TOLD them to just get it done. The US Govt could've said 'You've got 1 month, start producing'. #DPAnow should be happening but Trump doesn't wanna risk pissing off donors.

Maybe if Trump hadn't fired the entire Executive Branch Pandemic response team 2 yrs ago without replacing them

If Trumps administration hadn't axed the experts,
maybe the stockpile would've been maintained

& maybe the Fed Govt wouldn't be shipping States BROKEN ventilators now
Maybe if we had an expert Executive Branch Pandemic team coordinating a response they would've strongly advised Pompeo NOT to collect donations of 17.8 tons of critical Medical #PPE & ship it OUT OF THE COUNTRY over a month AFTER the CDC warned this pandemic was coming to the US.
And of course after the US donated tons of medical supplies to China, we see China turn around & sell $467 MILLION in PPE equipment that we in the US DESPERATELY need to SPAIN despite the fact that our State Dept's now desperately trying to buy PPE overseas cause we need #PPENow

What I've learned since I've been in Quarantine:

My cat runs and hides under the bed when I sing.

I'm trying not to be offended😢
Yesterday I posted what I had recently discovered during #QuarantineLife - that my cat Zoe hides under the bed every time I sing 🎶

Today to distract myself from the real news I experimented to see if she really does hide every time😳

Day ?🤔 (Who Knows)

I decided to continue my experiment. Subject Zoe 🐾 still hides under the bed when I sing 🎶

Sorry Zoe but I gotta keep singing to keep my spirits high...you’re just gonna have to learn to deal
