President Donald Trump on Friday deflected blame for his administration’s lagging ability to test Americans for the coronavirus outbreak, insisting instead — without offering evidence — that fault lies with his predecessor, Barack Obama.
Called it!
You should blame Chinese people first. They keep it up we are going to build another wall around China !

fone! I have great news for you man. Your baseball team, which will still suck, will NOT lose 100 games this year! Congrats!
My team can't even win during Spring Training.
Trump isn't taking responsibility for everything wrong with the world? Why can't he be like every other politician and blame himself?... Wait, that's a thing, right?
Why would he take responsibility for anything? The idiots don't care and the rest can't do anything about it.

so if i could cite a quote, from trump..... at least half a year before even the faintest whisperings of Corona chan happened, where he warned about issues we could/would face if we did not pull back critical industries from china? About the time he SPECIFICALLY requested that all major manufacturers based in the US, move their factories out of china?
Barrack obama, is irrefutably without a doubt, a major contributing force to the predicament we find ourselves in. He was the outsourcer in chief - More manufacturing jobs left this country under obamas administration than any other administration. he can specifically be cited as saying 'those manufacturing jobs are gone. they arent coming back. america is now a servicing country. get used to it.' Obama did quite literally N O T H I N G to stop the continued exodus of critical industries. Obama's fault lies in that he was SPECIFICALLY warned by the CDC in 2012 that if he continued to let critical medical supplies exit the country, that we would not be able to handle a pandemic in the future.
people, generals, doctors, and scholars have been warning congress for the last decade that moving things like vehicle, aircraft, steel, oil and medicine out of the country leaves us uniquely vulnerable if supply chains are ever compromised. What you are seeing is absolutely the end result of bad globalization.
Did you happen to watch that video i linked? the one that talks about china explicitly flaunting the idea that they could cut off our medical supply entirely during this outbreak and cripple us forever?
So what happens now?
Every manufacturer is going to abandon china. China is going to take a MASSIVE downturn once this is over. Projections place it at least of third of manufacturing needs to be back within the states, or at the very least mexico and canada, for this not to happen again.
Oh please, thats a lot of talk while ignoring every outbreak ever. SARS had nothing to do with Obama. Obama put the protocols in place to combat outbreaks like the coronavirus, he didn't do a single thing Trump has accused him of. Trump got rid of the protocols because he is an idiot. As we see everyday.

All hail Saint Obama. Blessed be the immaculate president who never did any wrong. Hallowed be his name.

Direct quotes yes. He can't step aside and let the medical experts speak.
Regardless, Pelosi did pass her coronavirus bill last night, 40 Republicans voted against it, I guess they are super comfortable in their reelection prospects.

It seems strange that you would reject a sourced article out of hand (and without doing any further research on your own, apparently) but accept quotes at face value without any of the underlying context.

Uh, yes there is something misleading about it. Even PolitiFact rated it only half-true (although Snopes apparently disagrees in an article that wasn't even properly edited), so I will echo what they said.
Quote:
“Fired” may be a little strong, but in 2018, top national security officials handling pandemics left abruptly and were not replaced by the Trump administration.
Quote:
Trump’s elimination of the office suggested, along with his proposed budget cuts for the CDC, that he did not see the threat of pandemics in the same way that many experts in the field did.

The organization was restructured after the fact by Bolton, not Trump, and you need to cite your quotes.

As president, the buck stops with Trump. Part of the reason he continuously fails, he lacks the mental maturity to accept responsibility.
Regardless where it comes from you've got a canned response to discredit it so why bother.
You've got two arguments. Pick your poison.
He's a *** idiot that cut the team to save pennies. Or he's incompetent *** idiot that didn't know(care) the team was fired by someone else.
Two sides of the same coin.
