Trump Excuses

As the total number of U.S. cases reaches over 320,000, Trump continues to blame every person imaginable for his administration’s failure to protect our nation from COVID-19. 

Trump blamed the shortage of personal protective equipment on doctors and nurses, accusing healthcare workers of stealing masks: “Where are the masks going? Are they going out the back door?” 

On Fox & Friends, Trump told viewers that he inherited a bad COVID-19 test from the Obama administration, even though a test couldn’t be created until the new virus was discovered in 2019.

Trump has repeatedly blamed governors, claiming that they are overinflating the number of ventilators that are needed for critically ill patients. After several state officials voiced their frustration with the administration’s response, Trump stated, “if they don’t treat you right, I don’t call.” 

In a last ditch effort, Trump blamed his lack of response to COVID-19 on the impeachment trial, stating it pulled attention away from the pandemic, even though he had 2 months to prepare after the first case was confirmed.  

Shifting the blame does not help protect Americans, but Trump is hoping these lies will protect his reelection campaign     

How Trump is to blame for our nations’ lack of preparedness

In 2018, Trump defunded the National Security Council’s global pandemic unit

Trump ignored key intelligence reports in January and February about the dangers the virus presented to Americans

Trump refused COVID-19 tests given to the U.S. by the World Health Organization, and waited until early March to lift FDA restrictions on private labs to develop tests

After the U.S. exported $17.5 million in face masks, $13.6 million in surgical garments, and more than $27.2 million in ventilators to China earlier this year, Trump refused to invoke the Defense Production Act to replenish supplies

Trump declined to use the pandemic preparedness playbook compiled by the Obama administration on how to best coordinate relief efforts for biological threats

Republicrats Duopoly

Everyone deserves the opportunity to influence the governmental decisions that affect them. But the defining characteristics of modern politics in the United States are a corrupt campaign finance system that enables corporate and wealthy elites to purchase political outcomes; and an abundance of anti-democratic electoral, ballot access and debate rules designed to minimize participation and choice.

The failure to fulfill the promise of democracy leaves millions of people in our country too discouraged to vote, and others who chose to vote seemingly trapped among false and limited choices. A system that promotes full and fair representation would draw millions of people in the United States into civic life and could revive democracy in this country. 

The presence of viable alternatives keeps Americans involved in our democratic process. These third parties did more than simply force the two major parties to adopt various policies. Third parties have always provided an “emotional bridge” for voters who are weary of supporting one major party but are not yet ready to vote for the other. George Wallace’s 1968 third-party Presidential campaign drew support from traditional southern Democrats who weren’t emotionally prepared to vote as Republicans. Fix Our Broken System

The two party system of government is a disaster in America for the people, but a boon for multinational corporaions and the 1% elite in American society. This system divides th people against each other. The division has become so sharp that no matter how bad one’s Party becomes it almost always seems better the other one. The military-indusrial complex now aided by Citizen United has gained control of both Parties. (MEK comments)
