Now must be the Democrats new advertising theme.
Just rerun the clip of the orange ass saying this six words.
Anything else would be political malpractice

(4,416 posts)A reporter asked if he took any responsibility for the slow reaction of the federal government, since he fired the White House pandemic response team that Obama had put in place- and left the positions unfilled for more than two years.
I dont take responsibility at all.
(That seems to be the mantra of his entire Presidency)

(23,003 posts)It was so loud in my head. He has never in his entire life taken responsibility for anything at all, it's all everyone else's fault. Some people in his administration did that, he doesn't know why and didn't know about it. Total attempt at ass covering lie. He already said in an interview last week that he cut the pandemic prevention team because 'they weren't needed and so why should I pay them?"

(17,305 posts)Trump denied that there was a potential problem on the horizon and delayed implementing means that were necessary to limit the spread. He waited until the cat was out of the bag before doing anything. He inability to accept the council of people who understood the magnitude of the potential problem is criminal. With his "hunch" that this thing was overblown, the American people got "hunched."
He is personally responsible for the scale of this problem in the U.S. He will be responsible for the shutdown of our normal activities, he will be responsible for the economic disaster, and he will be responsible for people's deaths.
The gross mishandling of the response, when time was critical, happened on his watch, he is responsible. This crisis required quick, intelligent and diligent actions, instead we got a Trump reaction, now we begin to reap the results of his failures.
It remains to be seen whether the people of the country will hold him personally responsible.

How are they any different than the getaway driver in a bank robbery? People have died and will die because of the actions (lack of) Trump.

(17,778 posts)many times are incapable of realizing they're implicated, mainly because they're incapable of independent thought. Then there's the Pence types, who signed a pact with the devil and realize they have no where else to go. They will all be nothing but historical pariahs once this is all done.

(6,094 posts)would still interview him as the expert and he would still be informative without propping up Trump at these staged dogs and pony shows.
