That would make more sense than most of his appointments. We'll see if he says more stupid shit about the virus and they have to contradict him. We may get one of his cronies anyway.

Aren't there high tariffs on medical supplies from China? My last job was at a blood center and most of our supplies were from China. If supply is already tight, look out. The virus could impact their production, and if a high percentage of their people need masks and stuff, along with other populous countries, We might end up cut off.

I doubt we could do something like ramp up production of medical supplies. No, not like the things we did to help win WWII.

Because all he thinks about is Number One. No, not THAT Number One, that’s his Russian playtime.
