Comprehensive takedown Mark. The “bad orange man” exposed the authoritarian streak and alignment with the globalist agenda in the Dems along with our bloated institutions.
We should have fired Fauci, assembled a truly diverse group of real scientific advisors, allowed any and all businesses to stay open and been more like Sweden but el Hombre Naranja was boxed in. Media would have been in overdrive with death counters and live images of suffering vented patients. The fix was in to maximize fear and panic with practically no way for the much maligned POTUS to rise above it.
Agreed that Trump was in a box. But the media ran the inflated death counter anyway. I wouldn't have locked down. Nor granted hospitals subsidies to overstate deaths, or for people to stay home. He should have made Americans confront the true costs of the lockdown.
And kids should have stayed in school.
Trump knows very little science. He was as out of his depth w/CV as I would be in a real estate deal.
Great point Mark, one that I missed. So much more could have been done by questioning the incentives, challenging the data and confronting those true costs. For a Wharton Finance guy he seemed to lack a sense of the math of the situation in addition to the science.
Kids in school absolutely! Mine are very fortunate to have missed only a few months of in person attendance and have been unmasked in school since May. Play dates and activities have continued without a hitch. Sad to hear about those still isolated and tied to a laptop for “education.”
Astute observation. For all trumps personality issues and perceived flaws, he correctly understood that the state was hopelessly intrusive, corrupt and destructive and he called these people out. But the bureacracy , the entrenched interests struck back… the next story hopefully will be more like return of the jedi

Thanks, Howard.
