Question for Republicans here on Benghazi

[Colorforms]

Oh I get it. You believe your teabagger messiah is raising people from the dead.

I should have asked if the number was -1 -2 or -3 lives lost as he reclaims souls from the grim reaper.

What was I thinking ?

You weren't thinking, You were simply doing what you're programmed to do.

She doesn't get confirmed in the Senate.

That depends on which party controls the Senate.

 

[georgephillip]

The laughter will be endless if that happens.

Never Underestimate Trump.

 

[georgephillip]

Obviously Trump made mistakes. Yes, a better focus on workable testing was important and the feds failed at that. But making the decision to shut travel (and close the borders) was almost equally important and he got that pretty right. If a dem had been in office, perhaps the viable testing would have come sooner but the travel restrictions and border security would have been delayed. Nobody is perfect.

If it's true most of the cases in New York and New Jersey came from Europe, did Trump wait too long to close that particular infection route?

 

[Drumcollie]

This is the whole Benghazi rant in a nutshell.

"Hillary ignored multiple requests for security, didn’t respond for 13 hours, & let 4 Americans die in Benghazi."

In your mind compare your complaint about Hillary's response to Trump's response to this pandemic.

Do you believe that more than 4 Americans have died because:

Trump did not order working test from other sources when the CDC test failed

Trump hordes medical equipment and supplies while hospitals cry out in need.

Trump still refuses to request that all states to shelter in place.

Yes or No ?

When does Hillary go to jail?

 

[Drumcollie]

Never Underestimate Trump.

Specially the November!

Obviously.

Biden with the senate AND the house? You think things are effed up now?

Seriously, if the American people really think socialism is the answer, I say no time like the present to find out...

 

[middleview]

No.
There was zero possibility that Trump could have limited Covid-19 deaths to four or less.
Just like it wasn’t possible for Obama to hold swine flu deaths under 4.

Benghazi is a completely different story with far different circumstances and implications.

Yeah, a democrat was prez. Why waste an oppurtunity to score political points.

Otherwise we might get 4 years of Biden ... or 4 more of Trump.

Yes, like I said - sooner rather than later...

"I agree.

"This would be a good time to decide when the profit motive and shareholder value contribute to national security and when they impede public health.

"It seems to me while it wasn't profitable to stockpile ventilators and PPE prior to this pandemic, it is much more expensive to provide them once the coffins begin to pile up?

"When we cautiously return to normalcy, there will be a natural tendency to play the blame game about the reality that our economic system was not well positioned to absorb the effects of the pandemic without an enormous corporate bailout.

"Bluntly, why do the wealthiest institutions in our society appear to manage their balance sheets less prudently than many middle-class Americans?
