One month ago today, Trump said "when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done."
As of today, the US, with 81,782 confirmed cases, has more total cases than any country in the world.
So it’s official. We’re number one in the world for coronavirus cases, even surpassing China which has more than 4 times as many people as the United States. That’s because despite spending more money on healthcare than anyone else, we have one of the worst health systems around.
Denmark: Paying 75% to 90% of salaries of its workers.
Netherlands: Paying 90% of salaries of its workers.
America: Bailing out corporations & telling workers to fuck off & go back to work early.
Capitalism is the disease.
Democratic socialism is the cure. #NotDying4WallStreet
First Trump fails to take Coronavirus seriously, losing precious weeks.
Then claims he’s a wartime president and follows expert advice.
Now he's going weak at the knees watching Fox and debating deadly laxity.
Leaders make tough calls for the greater good.
Based on facts.
@realDonaldTrump@nytimes@washingtonpost You are a fucking idiot the way you handled this virus when you saw what it was capable of anyone that spits on your name should get a $2000 dollar check for the duration of this cluster fuck that is killing your base elderly people. #NotMeUs#TheTimeIsNow
We need to put families first, not corporations.
A $500 billion slush fund where states have to compete with big businesses?
Controlled by Secretary Mnuchin with no oversight, transparency, or protections for taxpayers?
That should be unacceptable to everyone.
Some of my Republican colleagues are calling for a $1,000, one-time check to Americans.
Really?
That'll last you two or three weeks. What happens after that?
We need to give every person in this country $2,000 a month for the duration of this crisis.
This is devastating and heartbreaking...
They are removing respirators from patients over 65 in Spain and giving them to younger patients. Seniors are then given sedatives so they don’t suffer. We need to treat this pandemic like the biggest crisis of our lifetime because it is.
When Bernie said everyone should have healthcare as a right, you called it socialism. Now you are begging for free tests and treatment and healthcare that is not tied to your job. #youwasntready
When Bernie said all people should be making a living wage of at least $15/hr you called it socialism, now you are literally relying on those same people at the grocery store, food service, child care, cleaners and other min wage jobs to SURVIVE. #wakingupyet
