@Oats posted:When National Emergencies happen... great leaders rise to the occasion. It's happened throughout history. In our country, the USA, it started with George Washington and the men that wrote our constitution. Abraham Lincoln, Roosevelt and the New Deal, JFK and the standoff with Russia. Great leaders lead in a crisis. Trump stuck his head in the sand. He shirked the responsibility he swore to uphold while thousands were getting sick and dying. He got an experimental drug to help him pull through and laughed it off. He was not a leader by any stretch of the imagination. He brought his TV personality with him to the White House. He was the least presidential man we ever had in office. He's a Buffoon.
Oats you are being too kind. All he cared about was trying to win the election he lost. I think he is mentally ill. I agree with all you said, then I would add what he did instead of rising to the occasion. He tried to deny the pandemic was real, then he got it, got well, and went back in denial. He is guilty of manslaughter for letting all those people die. If the republicans block his conviction in the Senate trial, I hope they all pay dearly, and by that I mean not getting re-elected. This is the most historical event since WWII, and their actions will be judged for years to come. I am so glad the dems won those 2 Georgia seats, so we can ignore them for most other important matters. They need to rejoin the real world.
