What Trump did wrong

1.. Trump shut down the entire Global Health Security and Bio-defense agency. Yes, he did.
2.. In 2018 Trump fired Homeland Security Advisor Tom Bossart, whose job was to coordinate a response to global pandemics. He was not replaced.
3.. In 2018 Dr. Luciana Borio, the NSC director for medical and bio-defense preparedness left the job.. Trump did not replace Dr. Borio.
4.. In 2018, at Trump’s direction, the CDC stopped funding epidemic prevention activities in 39 out of 49 countries including China.
5.. In 2019 the NSC’s Senior Director for Global Health Security and bio-defense, Tim Ziemer, left the position and Trump did not replace the Rear Admiral.
6.. Trump declined to use the World Health Organization’s test like other nations.. Back in January, over a month before the first Co-vid19 case in the U.S., the Chinese posted a new mysterious virus and within a week, Berlin virologists had produced the first diagnostic test.. By the end of February, the WHO had shipped out tests to 60 countries.. Oh, but not our government.. We declined the test even as a temporary bridge until the CDC could create its own test.. The question is why?. We don’t know but what to look for is which pharmaceutical company eventually manufactures the test and who owns the stock.. Keep tuned.
7.. Amid the explosive worldwide outbreak of the virus Trump proposed a 19% cut to the budget of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention plus a 10% cut to Public Health Services and a 7% cut to Global Health Services. Those happen to be the organizations that responds to public health threats.
8.. Trump didn’t appoint a doctor to oversee the US response to the pandemic. He appointed Mike Pence.
9.. Trump has on multiple occasions sowed doubt about the severity of the virus even using the word HOAX at events and rallies. He even did it at an event where the virus was being spread. Trump has put out zero useful information concerning the health risks of the virus.
10.. Trump pretended the virus had been contained.
11.. Trump left a cruise ship at sea for days, denying them proper hospital care, rather than increase his numbers in America

If Donald Trump had been the Captain of the Titanic:

- “I know more about icebergs than anyone.”
- "There's no such thing as icebergs."
- "Icebergs are the new hoax."
- “Icebergs are a liberal conspiracy to make me look bad and remove me from power.”
- “It’s just one iceberg from China and we completely shut it down.”
- "There was an iceberg but it's in a totally different ocean."
- "The iceberg will melt very soon."
- “My gut tells me the number of icebergs are greatly inflated.”
- "There is an iceberg but we didn't hit the iceberg."
- "One day just like magic the icebergs will disappear."
- "We hit the iceberg, but there's no damage."
- "The Chinese created this iceberg so it’s their problem to fix."
- "Why not ask China about the iceberg? See what they tell you?"
- "You will never survive this iceberg with that attitude. Talking about the iceberg is no longer worth my time."
- "We are taking on water but every passenger who wants a lifeboat can get a lifeboat, and they are beautiful lifeboats."
- “You say I dismantled the iceberg patrol but I don’t know anything about that.”
- “If icebergs were such a big threat why didn’t the previous Captain protect us from them?”
- “Icebergs can’t be managed by the Federal Government.”
- "Passengers need to ask nicely for the lifeboats if they want to survive."
- "We don't have any lifeboats, we're not in the lifeboat business."
- "Passengers should have planned for icebergs and brought their own lifeboats."
- "I really don't think we need that many lifeboats. Can we order that many lifeboats?"
- "We have lifeboats but they are our lifeboats, not the passengers lifeboats."
- "The previous Captain exhausted the lifeboat supply."
- "Nobody could have foreseen an iceberg."
- "I always knew icebergs were dangerous. I always took them seriously."
- “If we had known about an iceberg we could have done things differently but nobody knew they killed people.”
- “I take no responsibility at all.”
