Morefield can go e’ff himself.
You said it.
What absolute horsecrap. So now Trump is to blame for COVID, a Chinese-manufactured pandemic??
What delusional and meandering projection this article is.
The author appears to be hopelessly mired in Consensus Reality, just like all the other Trump Haters. He believes the ProgDem crap and his own rap.
Useful tool. Bah, humbug.
I remember in mid March 2020 the 15 days started. At the end of March Trump wanted to open and the health officials in states didn’t? Then they decided on 2 more weeks of social distancing and hand washing. Then after the 30 days none of the governors wanted to open including Desantis and they wanted a real shut down? Trump wanted everything open by Easter. Governors said no. Desantis said we are shutting down and closing schools for the rest of 2020. The Governor’s said they could do what they want and Trump was not a king. It wasn’t Trump. It was the Governors who created this.
Me too
But who will be on the ticket as VP
The Notorious MTG.....?
Thank you, all of that context was, oddly, missing from what I read. The vaccine was, in part, a response to just about every govenor wanting to shut down everything.

The governors of Florida and Texas closed down the bars Friday to slow down the spread of the coronavirus that has been rampaging at record levels through their states.
Trump respected where Federal authority ended and States’ rights began. Same reason he didn’t send troops into Portland and Seattle last summer to end the riots.
All part of the “Newspeak” strategery of rewriting the truth. You see, Joe Biden let the cat out of the bag on this:
“Truth Before Fact…”
Hard for me to disagree with this piece when I have been saying the same things ever since Trump turned over his entire presidency to Fauci and Birx. Huge blunder that was the catalyst for essentially ripping up the Constitution.
Managed to make it through 5 years without getting a single clue about what Trump is about.
I think it’s the result of a bad decision…Trump wanted to depoliticize the response, so he put Pence in charge of the show, and it was Pence (a true idiot, IMHO) who actually handed it off to Fauci. And then I think it was unstoppable, because of course the media was instantly behind Fauci, becoming his adoring followers and attacking Trump whenever he dared to disagree or suggest some other course of action. (Remember when he very logically asked why we weren’t looking for treatments, such as some that had shown success with similar viruses, and was accused of telling people to drink fish tank cleaner?)
I found Trumps’s attack on the governor of Georgia for opening up to be very puzzling, but otherwise I think that a lot of Trump’s actions or lack thereof reflect the fact that he was probably the weakest President we have had in decades. That is, he certainly had ideas and things he wanted to accomplish, but by then he had been completely undermined by the constant Dem attacks, investigations, persecution of his associates, and elevation of swamp creatures (such as Fauci, the government’s highest paid bureaucrat) over the Office of the President. Their contempt for Trump went beyond even shockingly disrespectful gestures such as Nancy Pelosi’s tearing up the SOTU address and extended to outright mutiny.
People in the government and even in the military simply refused to do what he told them do do, and the same was true with the state governors, who realized they could get away with whatever they wanted against such a weakened President.
They will let anyone write for Townhall now
Well done. I agree with your take. The Georgia thing was a real head scratcher definitely. Your last paragraph sums up the final two years of his presidency. The deep state simply ignored him. He was powerless.
The author is a complete moron.
One thing he got right
I’m guessing
I want good GOP politicians who are doing a good job where they are to quit abandoning their positions just to satisfy their ambition. I don’t like giving up any GOP held position, and I don’t like seeing any GOP position put at risk unnecessarily. DeSantis should remain governor of Florida and run for governor again. Then he can look at the POTUS slot if he wants to.
Well, it is ClownHall.
