    I guess she’s yelling at... Trump? I don’t really know who she’s even talking to. Is Hillary the president?

    She is, of course, yelling at the Democratic governors. What are they supposed to do? Conduct international diplomacy to pressure China into admitting fault?

    Are they supposed to not follow the guidelines set up by the Trump task force?

    LOL Anything to distract from the fact the President sat on his thumb for months and has contributed greatly to the current economic situation by doing just about everything wrong from getting rid of the pandemic task force, to not preparing for the virus, to lying about the virus.

    So FOX sends out the drunk yenta to ramble on about China.

    She's very rational and you can tell that she's thought this through soundly.

    this whole situation shows we give too much credit or reliance on government.

    We cant expect china to not be incompetent and cant expect usa to not be incompetent.

    Here you have the 2 seemingly leading world powers bumbling this the whole way through. The communist and capitalist have equally failed. This whole thing has exposed both.

    The cracks show and putting too much faith in their competence is where people are wrong.

    We inherently trust others, the government, and trust so called leaders to a fault where we think they cant be incompetent.

    Its like walking into best buy and the 16 year old just started today and now you trust them since they have a best buy shirt on.

    These chinese guys have no idea whats going on. Neither does trump.

    The part we can appreciate from government is a road to drive on, fire dept, and texas workforce commission if needed.
    Also it would be nice if I didnt have to pay out of pocket so much for little timmys doctor visit when they hit my pay hard too but Im not sure all the way how government can fix that.

    She is right for the first 35 seconds.We were calling it the Wuhan,even bringing in the Wuhan forever jokes. (guilty here) I still like the name Wuhan virus more than covid but some people from that sector watching that " news" station will use it out of context.

    But that's when a leader not some some sociopath should have listen to the intelligent advisors and not the kiss azzes.

    There is a lot too this and I've said before that large institutions like government are inherently complex and difficult to manage. We always have to be prepared that government can't handle things and in many situations shouldn't be handling things. This though is exactly the type of situation that government was made for. This crisis can not be solved on an individual or even a state basis. I don't think it can be solved on a country basis either. This is a challenge to all of humanity.

    There is a difference though between the PRC and the USA. Our institutions are under threat but we still have the possibility of changing things. What this crisis teaches us is that competence in leadership should be the most important factor. I'm personally feel my own state, Minnesota, has handled things very well and Gov. Walz came in running as someone who wasn't very ideological but focused more on competency and bringing together both the rural parts of the state with the urban parts of the state. Nationally though we are seeing the danger of lack of competency. Trump didn't run on competency and his supporters voted for him because they wanted someone who would shake things up. Drain the Swamp. Stick it to the establishment. A chaos President. Well this is what we get a Chaos Administration making chaotic responses to a crisis that doesn't care about being an outsider.

    Apparently Trump only listens to the WHO and China.

    There are functional governments in between the Trump administration and the CCP.
