With nothing in between now and then. Tapper's take on this was excellent. He had a whole list of questions and the answers to those questions would actually constitute a PLAN. Good for him!

Wouldn't surprise me if Trump is "okay" with 1 million deaths.

Trump doesn't know what to do. Because he can't bear to think that experts know more then him, he doesn't listen to them. And now he's paralyzed by his own ignorance, and America has to suffer through this bullshit.

Perfect description of every one of the last 1,171 days.

OK - so if you google "how many days since January 20......" it fills in the rest for you. "...2017" I guess I'm not the only one to ask that question.

That's over three 9/11s.

Over 646 Benghazis.

That was a vile, disgusting moment, or should I say yet another vile, disgusting moment among many.

Sad to say the answer to 'Do you have a plan?' is a resounding no -- certainly not one that is going to stem the tide of the virus any time soon.
