[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 4529152, member: 48469"] Trump would have been considered a tyrannical dictator by half the Country had he told everyone to stay in their homes before the WHO declared a global pandemic. He declared a national emergency 2 days after the WHO declared a global pandemic. So I dunno what this "If he took action 1-2 weeks earlier" crap is about. Of course lives would have been saved. But we live in a democratic republic, where not being an iron-fisted dictator matters. And it's important for things like a nationwide lockdown order to happen in a proper sequence. Look, I also think Trump is a terrible human being. I just can't stand disingenuous claims like yours that don't take the full picture into consideration just so you can scream "TRUMP BAD MAN" about one more thing. And by the way: a substantial part of the reason for the economy reopening is that people aren't going to stay at home indefinitely hiding from the Virus. It's just not going to happen unless death rates are far higher. Especially after we've all see the very hard leftists who shrieked the loudest about the necessity of staying home and isolating indefinitely running out into the streets by the thousands. Health experts are making exceptions for the protests so they're not crucified by the left , but we all know what the real deal is. Cat's outta the bag now. [/QUOTE]
