I feel citizens were left out in the wind during the pandemic. Mixed messages everywhere. Freezers of bodies in Italy and then NYC scared me into doing everything I could to keep my family safe. I understand that means different things to different people.

Trump got a COVID-19 pharmaceutical cocktail that was not available for the rest of us. He then said let the virus rip through our communities killing untold numbers. Going on TV daily feeding us lies and BS.
