Oh for heavens sake....

Everyone’s a genius when it comes to looking backwards. No one on earth KNEW what to do and exactly when to do it. And when we are done, we still won’t know. Judge the corrections.

And that is why disbanding the group that focused on pandemic preparation and the other group that focused on researching viruses that might jump from animals to humans were big mistakes. Trump said, he doesn't like just paying people who just sit around when he disbanded one and defunded the other group. He would just rehire them if they were needed. But they weren't "just sitting around doing nothing". They were in a state of constant planning, research and training. Not unlike the military, which costs a whole lot more than those groups but most of them frequently "do nothing" in an analogous way.

Trump is an idiot. And so are the people who can't see that.
