Well, it was bound to happen. Trump is blaming his lackluster response to COVID-19 on—you guessed it—Obama!

Quote

Trump has on numerous occasions accused the Obama administration of implementing a rule change that complicated testing. However, no such rule was ever put in place, according to FactCheck.org.

Coronavirus testing has been a key point of criticism of the Trump administration, with testing only becoming widespread in the U.S. this week, and kits remain in limited supply.

Trump announced Friday in a tweet that "testing will soon happen on a very large scale basis. All Red Tape has been cut, ready to go!"

He appeared to be referring to an announcement that the Department of Health and Human Services has awarded grants to two companies developing tests that can show results in under an hour. These tests, however, won't be available for about six to 12 weeks.

Good leaders know how to take ownership of things. He doesn't have a clue how to do that

It sucks shit that they botched earlier precautions for this.  Specifically around testing.  But I think they went in the right direction this afternoon with the national emergency.  Right now my concern is what can they do to prepare for a potential influx of people that need hospitalization.  What can be done to get more respirators ? I hope there are good answers to these issues.  
 

be smart about trying to keep yourself healthy everyone ! Not much else we can do I guess.

They did a poor job preparing and handling this for sure but it doesn't mean they can't start doing the right thing now and suppress this virus before it gets out of control. Point the fingers in November but this is not the best time to do it. Everybody needs to work together and do their part.

This is where the federal government needs to step up.  One of the responsibilities they have is to protect their citizens.  Extended unemployment, paid sick leave payroll tax relief are good, temporary steps.

My lefty friends are already accusing him of trying to defund social security with the payroll tax cuts.
