The impeached President says the nation's governors should appreciate what he gives them in the fight against the coronavirus. It is another tell tale sign that the President is mentally unfit for office and that every thing is about Donald Trump. And he and Vice President Pence are still blaming others for their own mistakes and lack of governing during a pandemic. President Roosevelt guided our country during WWII to produce the materials and goods needed to fight a war against multiple opponents and displayed his courage in governing.
The governors and mayors of our states and cities still lack the critical material and supplies to fight the virus and its effects on the people. And the President still lacks a system to produce and coordinate the distribution of those materials and supplies on a timely basis to cover present needs. Yet, he still attacks state and local leaders when they speak out about those shortages and needs. The President's lack of respect for others during a time of a health crisis is notable, revealing and it is a common practice of this President.
Kellyann Conway, the President's lawyer said on the Fox News Network, Trump's ditto heat network, democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden should stop criticizing the President's actions and instead offer solutions. But days before her statement, President Trump in answer to a reporters question said he did not seek the advise of any past administration on what they would do because he thought they had no solutions on the coronavirus. But the fact is Joe Biden did offer solutions. He noted the President had the authority to order manufacturing to produce the needed items on short supply to fight the virus. Biden also offered a central distribution point to be more efficient in distributing the needed supplies.
Past Presidents acted in the best interest of the country and its people in good times, in bad times and in a crisis. They did not act seeking appreciation when duty called. They represented leadership with courage, character and a willingness to serve. Donald Trump represents his own self interest and corrupt persona.
