Trump Ignored Pandemic Plan Prepared by Obama Administration
Politico has put its hands on the pandemic response plan that had been developed by NSC staff during the Obama administration. The plan got tossed onto a shelf and the pandemic response team was disbanded in 2018 despite warnings from experts. This new reporting publishes the now ignored guide and you can read it here. Trump’s talking heads responded to Politico that the plan was “dated” and superseded by newer plans at CDC. The Obama plan was finished in 2016.
Trump has claimed that “Nobody ever expected a thing like this,” which, of course, is a lie. Plenty of people foresaw the potential of a global pandemic, but the massive turnover in the Trump administration and his obsessive effort to erase the Obama administration’s accomplishments have literally risked all Americans’ very lives. Trump must be held accountable for this massive failure.
He and mitch, and a few others should be hung by their toes in a public square…

2Oldymoldy @1,
Can we lease guillotines from France?
3Operative words *Obama Administration* . Baby Chump HATES people of color . (with respect)
4Murderer. As my soul mate and husband of almost 36 years, lies in palliative care with Corona Pneumonia, having refused a ventilator, due to the shortage, and I am in quarantine at our home…Murderer… just f’ng Murderers….. all of them.
5It’s an Obama failure! He should have anticipated the fact that the ***king moron* is worse than the worst case of “terrible twos” evuh throwing a tantrum. Had President Obama deployed reverse psychology and left Donnie* the worst plan ever to rip to shreds, then maybe IQ .000045* and his maladministration at least would have stumbled onto something an iota less st00pid than what they are doing to spread COVID-19 while maximizing profits for themselves.
6Sending peaceful thoughts to you Litlhorn #3 during your trying times.
7As to his majesty, when he leaves office in January, I want to see him booed off the stage. He’s not only been a national embarrassment but a lethal presence. And Twitter – close his account!
Oh, Litlhorn, my heart goes out to you and your husband.
8This is heartbreaking news and humanizes the whole senseless
situation. Please find a bit of comfort knowing we are with you in spirit.
Litlhorn, I am so sorry. Many prayers coming your way.
9Litihorn – gotta agree with you. Hope your hubby pulls through. i lost my husband to disease in 2012. I know what you are going through.
10If dump said it- you know it was a lie. Pure and simple.
11Litlhorn, your soulmate has an abundance of grit and decency. There may not be such a thing as a medical miracle, but there sure is ample evidence of positive attitudes being good medicine. Wishing the two of you the best outcome of that positive attitude you share.
12I echo the messages of others here to you, Litlhorn. I hope for the best for both of you. And I agree with your “murderers” characterization. Those who did nothing but should have done *everything* because they had the power to do so, are criminally negligent.
Ron Klain, who oversaw the Ebola crisis under Obama, was devastatingly critical in his assessment of the administrations performance on MSNBC this evening. We need him in charge now but of course that will never happen.
