He got rid of waste

[Pete F.]

PsychoBozo blames his administration's failure to conduct testing for the coronavirus (less than 500 tests as of last Friday) on OBAMA.

I knew it - eventually he'd blame Obama! Just wait, tomorrow he'll be calling it the Obamavirus.

PsychoBozo eliminated the pandemic response team, including the top-level NSC member. He did nothing about this for the months that Coronavirus was developing in China and then tried to deny it was a problem.

He's talking about the decision that LDT assays (Lab Developed Tests) developed by CLIA-approved labs (Quest diagnostics, Labcorp - but ALSO Elizabeth Holmes scamlab till caught) should be under the oversight of the FDA.
The FDA DID make mistakes demanding no SARS false positive, but that is NOT because it's a "mistake" to have FDA review LDTs.

That's exactly how we ensure no one is scammed by a place like THeranos again.

She used the LDTs as a way to use equipment that never went through FDA review because it wasn't marketed for sale just used for testing.

And if you eliminate the managing apparatus that looks at possibilities and solutions you end up where we are.

This cry for help should make the front page.

Trump also cut funding for the CDC, forcing the CDC to cancel its efforts to help countries prevent infectious-disease threats from becoming epidemics in 39 of 49 countries in 2018.
Among the countries abandoned? China.
This isn't just about accountability. It's about drawing attention to the structural problems in the US response effort before things get worse.
And it’s not limited to diseases, the increased structural problems carry through all national security operations.
But he’s saving you money, just what is 3% of the DOW, never mind the danger to Americans here and abroad worth.

Fools

oh good...pete is responding to his own nonsense again

[Pete F.]

It was Trump*’s view that it was nonsense, would just go away one day and failure to act that got us to the place we are.
Rest easy because while Congress is spending $2 trillion to stimulate the economy and combat Covid-19 the president is at least ensuring that the United States is not on the hook for Harry and Meghan’s security costs. And the sick and the dying will be gratified to know that the president’s TV ratings remain high.
