Russia's reaction to Trump's ultimatum

On 30 January, 2020, WHO declared the highest level of global emergency on Covid-19. At that time there were only 82 cases outside China, only 10 in Europe and nil in the rest of the world.
Bill Gates said that China did a lot of things right, but the US responded very poorly meaning they did NOTHING.
South Korea closed its borders and went into action as soon as they saw it was a pandemic.
Trump thought this virus was an answer to their prayers to stop China. Remember Trump laughed it off on TV claiming the US only had one case and that was no problem for them???? This is all about incompetents trying to shift the blame.
Juliette Kayyem, former Assistant Secretary, Dept Homeland Security, said recently that the CDC refused to use test kits used by WHO and tried to develop its own which proved to be faulty. “We knew in January 2020 what we would need. We knew. We would need gloves and masks and respirators and ventilators. Two and a half months later we were dependent on sewing circles to supply our front-line heroes with what they need”.
“It might be a nice American story. I find it pathetic”.
Dr Rick Bright led a government agency trying to develop a vaccine was removed from his post because he said Government inaction caused the loss of lives. He raised the medical equipment shortage in January 2020 with the highest levels of the Department of Health and Human Services, but got no response.

When dealing with simple people you have to remind them what really happened. Most don’t look into these matters and read newspapers with stories written at 12 year old level.
You give too much credit to the US public. They have been dumbed down and will believe all this rubbish about China, plus who is going against Trump? Alzheimers Joe?
I saw an interview with Naom Chomsky and he said he backed Joe as he is the better of two evils. There is no better of evils. You change the system so you have no evil.
Regardless what happens the death knell of US dollar as the world reserve currency has been sounded when oil went to -$37. Reserve currencies last about 100 years as did the British pound but in 1944 it was taken over by the US dollar. Under normal circumstances the US$ should have lasted for another 20 years but terrible decisions have been made in the last 20 years and the virus just pushed it over the edge. There is no coming back from this one.
They say September is the month to watch.

We know that, sj.
This blunder (and what followed) will probably cost Trump the next term.

In the case Alzheimers Joe we have to watch closely, who will be his running mate. Because of the age, this question is far more important than usual.

The China-story has two faces: one, indeed, the lowest of the low started to physically attack everyone who looks Orinetal. This is not limited to the US. Seen camera pictures from UK as well. It's (almost) everywhere.

The other face is the recent blunder with the Chinese-born American reporter, after that I think many Oriental votes will go to Joe. We have to prepare that Joe may get a landslide.

In the fact... he does not need to do anything, Trump is on the path of self-destruction.
