‘no, i don’t take responsibility at all’

“Love the way the pres­i­dent seems com­plete­ly un­in­ter­est­ed in giv­ing this speech, just ab­solute­ly bored shit­less, pay­ing no at­ten­tion even to his own words, need­ing to look at his script 11 sec­onds into the speech be­cause he for­got it’s called ‘coro­na virus,’ this is all fine, I feel great con­fi­dence, the sheer bore­dom in his voice did it.”
—Gin and Tacos, 13 March 2020

“I wish things were dif­fer­ent. I wish we had a De­mo­c­ra­t­ic gov­ern­ment right now. I wish I didn’t have to fear for fam­i­ly and friends and neigh­bors, a new fear com­ing every sea­son with­out the old one leav­ing. There’s a stack of fears and threats and wor­ries we each haul be­hind us now.

“But I don’t yearn to be back at col­lege. I don’t yearn to be a kid again. I don’t yearn to be obliv­i­ous to this. If this is the path things take, then I don’t wish to be co­cooned at a time when priv­i­lege and youth kept me ig­no­rant to what it was like to haul this shit around all the time.

“We’re at a point where we can save lives, even with some­thing so sim­ple as 10 min­utes a day of phone calls to our gov­er­nor, rep­re­sen­ta­tives, sen­a­tors. We’re at a point when we can change things. We’re at a point where we have no choice but to look at the shit every­one else hauls around and say enough. I don’t want to go back to a time when I could­n’t see that.

“The only ques­tion now is whether we do these things or not, whether we take charge of the mo­ment or al­low the peo­ple heap­ing fears on us to mis­man­age yet an­oth­er that they made so much worse. Say enough, calm­ly with con­trol or scream­ing it so the neigh­bors can hear, or through grit teeth or tears, but make this gov­ern­ment hear you say it.

“We need ex­ten­sive and free COVID-19 test­ing, we need con­sis­tent hos­pi­tal pro­to­cols, we need un­em­ploy­ment and sick cov­er­age for work­ers (blocked by Sen. Mc­Connell), we need Medicare and Med­ic­aid cov­er­age to be ap­plied across the board (blocked by the White House), we need dri­ve-through test­ing, we need cov­er­age of all treat­ment (no gov­ern­ment plans yet; op­posed by White House), we need it to be ap­plied equal­ly to all com­mu­ni­ties, and we need to main­tain vot­ing rights through it all.

“The coun­tries this has hit hard­est all have uni­ver­sal or es­sen­tial­ly uni­ver­sal health­care. We do not. We don’t know how this im­pacts a coun­try with­out full cov­er­age. Some states have hun­dreds of peo­ple now who have been de­nied test­ing, and the prop­er health­care that test­ing de­ter­mines. If they won’t fix this, we must. You have a phone, they have of­fices that need to hear you. It’s not that hard, we just have to do it.”

Sup­port for Trump at this mo­ment is
*one in the same*
with sup­port­ing let­ting this virus run ram­pant be­cause

THAT’S WHAT TRUMP DID.

late-stage cap­i­tal­ism put un­der even the slight­est stress looks ex­act­ly what cap­i­tal­ists claim so­cial­ism looks like https://t.co/Hc9pGPfdhg

MAGA id­iots caused this.

No, they didn’t cre­ate the virus but the lack of re­sponse from Trump (all to keep his re-elec­tion num­bers high) over a month ago is why the world is to­tal­ly up­side down right now.

There is no de­bate. There is no dis­cus­sion.

There is no “Bu‑, bu‑, Oba­ma!”

This is what is.

RE­MINDER: In 2018, Trump fired the en­tire US pan­dem­ic re­sponse team.

These were the ex­perts with decades of ex­pe­ri­ence deal­ing with pre­cise­ly the kind of sit­u­a­tion we are in to­day.

Trump did not re­place them.

He elim­i­nat­ed the po­si­tions.https://t.co/ftbQJ57PnL

I mean,
Trump RE­FUSED Test Kits from the World Health Or­ga­ni­za­tion (WHO).

I hope any­one still sup­port­ing this garbage id­iot has their life, health and busi­ness ru­ined by this out­break.

We’re all suf­fer­ing in some way or oth­er be­cause Fox News-ad­dict­ed trash fucked us all.

 

“No, I don’t take re­spon­si­bil­i­ty at all.”
—Don­ald Trump, 13 March 2020
 

This needs to be EVERY­WHERE dur­ing this elec­tion. Make it trend.
