Did someone say "Chernobyl"?
Quote:The White House has ordered federal health officials to treat top-level coronavirus meetings as classified, an unusual step that has restricted information and hampered U.S. government’s response to the contagion, according to four Trump admin officials

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Things should get better now, since Mr. Trump has announced:
-Stopping travel between Europe and the US (but not really).
-Cutting payroll taxes (but not really).
-Forcing insurers to pay for coronavirus treatments (but not really).
-Consulting with travel agencies, European leaders, the US congress, and insurance companies on all of the above (but not really).
-Calming panicked investors (but not really. Not even remotely).
Given his incredibly effective leadership and masterful management of this crisis, I think you lot should seriously consider just cancelling the election and re-appointing Trump to a second term by acclimation.

Are you somehow implying that Mr. Trump has no control over the situation and is simply dashing about with his head on fire??

I wasn't sure. You can be very subtle at times.
