Ah I love the smell of missile spam in the morning
If you look at the number of cases in the US, and the deaths, and not look at the general US population. One would think there is a problem, then you look at the population of the US and then look at the number of cases and deaths and it is miniscule
Especially when you compare it to the economic damage us freaking out has caused. Sigh I swear politicans must have a mental disorder that compels them to act in a crisis even if doing so will make things worse

It's a election year.

One half is completely dedicated to causing as much damage to the country as possible and blame the other half.

And the other half is to worried about being blamed for any deaths that they aren't pushing back against the clearly bad policys in the hope of looking like they really really care about people and won't be tarred and feathered by the people that don't care about reality and will tar and feather them anyway.

It has become impossible for them to come together as Americans. One side made literally everything political and now the other side has to defend everything as political. Neither side can compromise because one side will declare it a triumph over their enemy and the other will be chastised for their defeat.

It's a bad situation when a pandemic is a chance to score political points instead of a time to come together, but here we are...

Actually in show its shown that Humphrey is competent at his job he's just incredibly cynical about it.

Oh yes, he even says "government isn't about morality, it's about stability" or something to that effect. I just think it's rather amusing to consider that, if he were a reality in our age, the consummate civil servant might be the greatest British statesman of the early 21st century. What I wouldn't give for some fucking pragmatism in Westminster.

Oh, lovely. They've sent me a mo-ron.

Bit of good news for you Westerners, I think more Lefties are turning around on Hydroxychloroquine and doing so in public

If even the ones in power give Trump credit, you know somethings may change

Though I’d expect an expectation for government intervention with the drug will mess up the buying and selling and producing it
If they like to live longer they'll take it.
