Incompetent

 From The Guardian: "Jeremy Konyndyk, another central figure in the US battle against Ebola, told the Guardian that the Trump administration’s initial response was 'one of the greatest failures of basic governance and leadership in modern times'."


Trump is outdoing himself this week. First he said he had total power and someone reminded him that with total power came total responsibility so he reversed course and said that the governors were entirely responsible for their own states. But then he said that Michigan, Virginia, and Minnesota should be liberated from their governors and their governors' orders which sure sounds like encouraging sedition. Then he not only insisted that there are enough tests, he told everyone that if there were problems that they needed to solve them by themselves. Most governors, even Republican governors, are pointing out that there aren't enough tests but beyond that there aren't even enough swabs.

Trump's response: Trump rejected that request at his press briefing later on Thursday, saying: “You got to be able to go out and find [it]. You know, the federal government shouldn’t be forced to go and do everything.”

That's real leadership there, at least in the bizarre world of Donny One Note's mind.
