I find your post really interesting and am having trouble unpacking it. It seems to me that there are many contradictions, but perhaps I missunderstood.

You say that there are no sides, but end by railing on trump.

You say that the reason for failure doesn't matter, but provide a list of reasons.

You claim that health insurance is the cause of no testing, when the article stated that the CDC refused to conduct or approve testing.

If you sentiment is that this is not the time to focus on partisanship, I wholeheartedly agree. If you sentiment is we should be solution minded, I wholeheartedly agree.

The focus should be on determining what we can do NOW to save the most lives. There will be plenty of time later to assign blame and discuss long term fixes.




> You say that there are no sides, but end by railing on trump.

He means it's not a partisan thing. Trump is still the person calling the shots.

> You say that the reason for failure doesn't matter, but provide a list of reasons.

I think you're misunderstanding here on what the reasons he's referring to, which are why we're in this situation - those don't matter. The reasons that he provided are the reasons why this is an issue.
