Re: Fault. The blame will fall wherever the msm places it. Regardless, must take into account how the death rate is affected by independent decisions at state and local level. How many years did major metropolitan areas have to gather resources that they should have anticipated would be needed in the event of a healthcare issue? What plan did these leaders have in place to respond to beyond dialing the White House and pleading for President Trump and the American taxpayer to deliver them from the consequences of their own lack of planning and financial preparation? Sincerely. bruce.

Somewhat, but MSM is a minor player in the national TV audience, compared to PBS, CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, & THEY are in lock-step in the blame-game; they didn't have to think hard to decide, either.

Bruce forgets the businessman's argument, which Trump himself has made, that contingency planning for a day that may never come amounts to a luxury the taxpayers can scarcely afford. It becomes especially true at the state/local level where it can also be argued that the danger of unnecessary bureaucratic duplication happens.

Prior to Covid-19, the assumption held by everyone in the entire country, including this board, was that epidemics were a Federal problem, and the CDC and other agencies would lead the way. It is only after the fact, when Trump's agencies have taken a pass, that we get this new rationalizing that it really is a local problem after all.

Certainly when Ebola touched these shores and Obama was president, conservatives were firm on the idea that the Feds should be on top of this. And they were.

The CDC Trump's agency? What THEY were focused on was how best to spend the TWENTY-FIVE MILLION they'd just been given to erode gun-rights & stigmatize gun-owners, for CDC a higher priority by far than worrying about some foreign disease.

Yes they're Trump's agency. You think he'd have it any other way?
