"The Great American Comeback"
Three years ago, we launched the great American comeback. Tonight, I stand before you to share the incredible results. Jobs are booming, incomes are soaring, poverty is plummeting, crime is falling, confidence is surging, and our country is thriving and highly respected again. Americas enemies are on the run, Americas fortunes are on the rise, and Americas future is blazing bright.
Here is the only mention of Coronavirus in the whole speech (about half way through),
in fact he only mentioned the word "VIRUS" this one time:
Protecting Americans health also means fighting infectious diseases. We are coordinating with the Chinese government and working closely together on the coronavirus outbreak in China. My administration will take all necessary steps to safeguard our citizens from this threat.
Big time failure.
By week 5 (March 11th), everything started shutting down.
- Close to "ZERO" necessary steps to safeguard citizens were taken.
Pendejo45 announced on March 18 that he was invoking the Defense Production Act to ramp up production of medical supplies during the coronavirus pandemic.
1st confirmed coronavirus case was on Jan. 20, 2020
What happened in the 8 weeks prior to March 18th?
A full 2 months wasted

What happened in the 8 weeks prior to March 18th?
A full 2 months wasted
- Jobs were lost.
- Incomes disappeared.
- Poverty on the rise.
- Crime is non-existent because everything is shutdown. (I guess he can take credit for that!)
- Confidence is also non-existent
- Country is at depression levels.
- Were we ever highly respected with Pendejo45 in charge?
- Americas fortunes lost (Dow 2/5 29290, Dow 3/12 21200 -27.66%, Dow 3/23 18591 -36.5%)
- Americas future is blazing bright? Is the light still turned on?
STILL NO NATIONAL PLAN
Time to vote this guy out!
