I still think its harder for Trump here than there. He has to deal with 50 different states, different political parties that no matter what he does them and media will blame him for something. I can see if he had instituted Singapore type measures earlier the virus would be under control but the economy would have tanked and media and dems would say he over reacted and destroyed the economy. I think he has had to walk a tight rope and make sure he had buy in from dems that this was bad. Nobody really knows how bad it can get until it gets bad. Just my thought

You are probably right. Nothing says votes like people dying. On the other hand, Trump could declare Marshall law in a state, arrest and hold local government officials until the crisis passes. I think something like this actually could be agreed upon by the mentally rational....but then again these are democraps!

Good thinking.

Trump has done an amazing job I light of what he has to contend with. We have too many idiots.

The US has a large land mass and you will have local hot spots that need attention, then the hot spots will move as hot spots recover. Like whack a mole. So not 1 size fits all policy will work
