Of course we all know where the nexus of the leasership vacuum is
located.

Covid-19 has created a crisis throughout the world. This crisis has
produced a test of leadership. With no good options to combat a novel
pathogen, countries were forced to make hard choices about how to
respond. Here in the United States, our leaders have failed that test.
They have taken a crisis and turned it into a tragedy.

The magnitude of this failure is astonishing. According to the Johns
Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering,1 the United States
leads the world in Covid-19 cases and in deaths due to the disease,
far exceeding the numbers in much larger countries, such as China. The
death rate in this country is more than double that of Canada, exceeds
that of Japan, a country with a vulnerable and elderly population, by
a factor of almost 50, and even dwarfs the rates in
lower-middle-income countries, such as Vietnam, by a factor of almost
2000. Covid-19 is an overwhelming challenge, and many factors
contribute to its severity. But the one we can control is how we
behave. And in the United States we have consistently behaved poorly.

You simply can't compare those primarily homogeneous counties with the US. You own article says it best: "But the one we can control is how we behave. And in the United States we have consistently behaved poorly."

"we have consistently behaved poorly" Not the POTUS. The general population, of which about half have been taught to hate Trump by the media, and many across both halves just aren't going to behave, because they are Americans and you can't make them. The day of a president, *any* president, being able to control the populace of the US is long gone.

Hell, you can't even get some city populations to stop burning down their own cities and neighborhoods, even when they are hurting themselves the most, eh?
===

People who "hate" Trump did not have to be taught. They dislike him
because of the constant lying, boorish behavior, disdain for science,
lack of sound leadership, and attempts to subvert the constitution. No
education required, its all out there for everyone to see.

We've had 4 years of the MSM portraying Trump in the worst way possible. I never said he didn't behave badly, but the press has given him zero credit for the good things he's done, and have showcased any tiny, barely perceived wrong as the ultimate slap in the face, up to and including manufacturing BS.

If you don't believe that the public can be led by the nose by the media, then I don't know what to tell you. Except maybe look at your own statements here lately.

===

Do the Wall Streey Journal and New England Journal of Medicine qualify
as MSM? I think not.


Maybe, maybe not. But MSNBC, CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, NYT, WaPO, et al sure are, and are heavily liberally biased. Maybe you should expand your reading/viewing beyond those two you mention.


Today, Trump blamed Gold Star families for giving him his COVID-19
infection. He offered no evidence. You're just another simple-minded
Trump cultist.

For whar it's worth, I'm a registered Republican, fiscal conservative,
and a 2nd ammendment advocate. That said, Trump is still an
unprincipled, egotistical scoundrel.


The media started in on Trump before he was elected, and they've shoved it down
throats. How would you act towards them in that case?

Trump was a scoundrel long befure he was elected. The media was just
trying to make people aware of it. That's their job.

The people who like Trump were never bothered by that. It is like the
feminists (Male or female) who still love Bill Clinton after he ****ed
a star struck intern in the face and wiped his dick on her dress.


Actually, it is nothing like that.


What is "nothing like that"?


Trump's "scoundelism" goes far beyond sexual misadventures. There were
lots of sound reasons to like Clinton. There are no reasons to like
Trump, unless you are a demented, racist pig.

I like the lack of new wars. That ain't nothing. He could still do
more, like a Gerry Ford style pull out from Iraq/Syria and
Afghanistan. I would pull out of Europe too.
Why are we still there? The war has been over for 75 years.
You can't bitch about the DoD budget and still advocate foreign
military misadventures.

And how about Clinton causing the housing disaster? Liver loans, etc.

That was true, along with Barney Frank and Schumer but it is still
chump change compared to what we have wasted on NATO and those stupid
wars since GHWB.
NATO is an obsolete relic of the cold war and the middle east should
be left to eat itself. Those people don't own a globe. If they don't
see us there, they will forget we exist and just kill each other.
