And Trump was told by his intelligence community that China wasn't being honest about the extent of the epidemic, but he chose to ignore hem and listen to what Xi said. And to compound that, he GAVE them tons of supplies that we were going to need. If tat's not leadership failure, what is?
Also, I don't watch Rachel Maddow. She's not a news reporter, she's a commentator with an opinion, as are all the prime-time talk show hosts, including Hannity, Carlson, and Ingraham. |
