My take on the entire Covid-19 delay

[malaise]

The Con knew about the threats since November and he and the rest of the kakistocracy delayed warning Americans about it for two reasons - profit making and his re-election.

This is criminal negligence.

1. There's a third

Kill off some of us who they consider to be "expendable"-yes, I think they're that sociopathic

4. Indeed

I have been thinking about that. It is scary to contemplate that some of the slaughter of innocents is deliberate.
Still when he turned down the WHO tests, he, his goons and his private sector buddies were organizing their own disaster capitalist profit-making schemes. Meanwhile his ReTHUG allies were shopping and dumping stocks.

2. One of my favorite West Wing lines about child labor

Abby Bartlett -

"If they didn't know about, that is criminally negligent, and if they knew about it, that's just criminal."

6. +1,000

5. Yes.

And there is evidence to that in regards to Operation Crimson, which was done last year and the report was made around October.

This pandemic was not an if, but a when. The threat of this has been recognized for decades and became more of a possibility over time. Obviously, steps were being taken to being to avert a total disaster, but we see how that was taken by Dear Leader.

I still feel that Trump may have considered another benefit from ignoring this and downplaying it, and it is not just financial. I think we will see if that is true in the near future as he plays his real cards fiercer and faster prior to the election. In fact, the less he is certain he can win, the more desperate he will be to remain in power by other means, which is exactly the same modus operandi as the GOP has these days, seeing as to how obsolete they are and how the nation's demographics have their days numbered otherwise.

9. He sat on it because he was too stupid to

use it as a counter point to the impeachment hearings. Imagine if he had handled it exactly right? That would have completely overshadowed the hearings. But he would have had to listen to the experts and acknowledge they knew more than he did and that sure as hell ain’t happening. Not hard to see how he bankrupted a casino.

10. That's an astute observation

I still think he was trying to cash in or why that trip to India

11. Absolutely! By then it was too late to

get out ahead of it. Might as well make money off it.
